The invention relates to an intermediate product based on the organic carbonates and carbamates mixture and method for the production thereof. The inventive method consists in reacting a carbamide, a substituted carbamide, a carbamic acid salt or ester or one of the N-substituted derivatives thereof in a glycol polyalkylene, polyol polyester or a polyol polyether of general formula (I), wherein R is a linear or branched alkylene group having from 2 to 12 carbon atoms and n is a number ranging from 1 to 20, or in a totally or partly hydrolysed polyvinyl alcohol of general formula (II), wherein R' is an alkyl, aryl or acyl group having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, p and q are numbers ranging from 1 to 20, or dissolving in the mixture of said compounds with an alkaline catalyst promoting the ammonia separation. The thus free ammonia or an amine produced by the reaction mixture is removed by a stripping gas. |
