The thus obtained partially hydroxypropylated polyhydroxystyrene, 90 g, was dissolved in 180 g of tetra-hydrofuran. With stirring under ice cooling, 2.3 g of triethylene glycol divinyl ether and then 1.8 g of pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate were added. Reaction was carried out for 6 hours at room temperature, 46.5 g of triethylamine and then 30.0 g of 1-chloroethyl ethyl ether were added, and reaction was carried out for a further 2 hours at room temperature. To the reaction mixture were added 500 g of ethyl acetate and 300 g of water, followed by separation. The ethyl acetate layer was washed twice with 300 g of water and then concentrated in vacuum. The residue was dissolved in 300 g of methanol and added dropwise to 20 liters of water whereupon a powdery solid precipitated. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with 20 liters of water, and dried in vacuum at 40° C. for 24 hours. On 1H-NMR analysis, it was identified to be a polymer (Polym. 5) in which 31.0 mol % of the hydrogen atoms of hydroxyl groups in polyhydroxystyrene were replaced by 1-ethoxyethyl groups, and the alcoholic hydroxyl group moieties which had been introduced in an amount of 2.0 mol % formed ether bonds with alcoholic hydroxyl groups of triethylene glycol di(1-hydroxyethyl) ether to provide crosslinking.
