Procedure

A 1-liter resin flask was charged with 200 g of PEG-7500 and 0.3 g KOH and vacuum stripped at 100° C. for one-half hour. To this stirred solution under nitrogen were added 5.5 g of 1,2,7,8-diepoxyoctane at 100° C. over 15 minutes. The mixture was maintained at this temperature for an additional one and one-half hours followed by quenching with 250 g of water.
