Procedure
Following the examples of U.S. Pat. No. 4,839,461, a solution of 1.96 g (0.02 mole) maleic anhydride was dissolved in 1 ml water at 25° C. and stiffed for 30 minutes while allowing the mixture to cool to 25° C. To this colorless solution at 25° C. was added 2.4 g of 30% aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide (0.022 mol NH3) to give a colorless solution. This solution was boiled to dryness over a period of 30 minutes at approximately 100°-120° C. and 10-20 Torr, to give a white crystalline solid. The solid was tumbled under nitrogen at 100 Torr, at 135°-140° C. for 8 hours to give a water insoluble, pinkish-tan brittle grasslike solid weighing 2.7 g. This solid was dissolved in 6.6 g of an aqueous solution containing 0.8 g of sodium hydroxide to form a clear orange solution, pH 7.0, containing 25% solids.
