Abstract:
A polymer having an average molecular weight M.sub.w (weight average) of 5,000 to 1,000,000 (measured by gel permeation chromatography), comprising structural repeating units of the formulae I-IV: ##STR6## in which R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 independently of one another are hydrogen, methyl or halogen, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 independently of one another are C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, R.sub.7, R.sub.8, R.sub.9 and R.sub.10 independently of one another are hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy or halogen, and w, x, y and z are numbers equal to or greater than 1, with the provision that the quotient ##EQU2## which is obtainable from the sum of the structural units having protecting groups divided by the sum of all of the structural units present, obeys the condition 0.10.ltoreq.Q.ltoreq.0.50.
