Procedure
13 g (0.5 mole) of vinyl acetate, 49 g (0.5 mole) of maleic acid anhydride and 0.1 g of lauroyl peroxide were dissolved in 400 cc of benzene and heated for five hours at 70° C. The copolymer was precipitated from the viscous solution with petroleum ether (80° to 100° C.). The copolymer dissolved well in diluted caustic soda.
