Condensation products of basic amino acids with copolymerizable compounds which are obtainable by condensing n (a) a basic amino acid selected from the group consisting of lysine, arginine, ornithine, tryptophane and mixtures thereof, n (b) a copolymerizable compound selected from the group consisting of saturated monobasic carboxylic acids, unsaturated mono-basic carboxylic acids, polybasic carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid anhydrides, diketenes, monohydroxycarboxylic acids, polyhydroxycarboxylic acids and mixtures thereof, and optionally n (c) at least one compound selected from the group consisting of amines, lactams, non-proteinogenic acids, alcohols, alkoxylated alcohols, alkoxylated amines, amino sugars, carbohydrates and sugar carboxylic acids n in a molar ratio of (a):(b) of from 100:1 to 1:1 at a temperature of at least 120° C., and a process for the production of said condensation products by condensing compounds (a) and (b) and optionally (c) at a temperature of from 120° to 300° C. |
