Accordingly, a sample of polysuccinimide, preferably comprised of high Mw, linear molecules (e.g. from Example 3), was slurried in water at 20 g in 100 ml water. The slurry was cooled to 2-4° C., by use of a refrigerated recirculating bath and a water-jacketed glass vessel, and precooled, concentrated ammonium hydroxide (twofold excess) was added, keeping the temperature at 2-4° C. The crosslinker, in a cooled solution of ammonium hydroxide, was added to the precooled slurry of polysuccinimide, and the reaction mixture was then stirred for 2 to 4 hours until a complete solution was formed. Water was removed at 80° C. in a forced-air oven, producing a dried product of lightly crosslinked aspartate/asparagine copolymer.
