Abstract:
An enamine functional polymer comprising the reaction product of an acetoacetoxy functionalized polymer and an amine selected from the group consisting of ammonia, a primary amine, and a secondary amine, wherein said acetoacetoxy polymer comprises the free-radical polymerization product of:a monomer of formula (I): ##STR7## where R1 and R2 are both a --C(O)R3 group; R3, which can be the same or different, is selected from the group consisting of a C.sub.1 -C.sub.24 alkyl group, an aromatic or heteroaromatic group, a C.sub.3 -C.sub.8 cycloalkyl or C.sub.2 -C.sub.7 heterocyclic group, and a --CH.sub.2 --C(O)--R4 group;R4 is a C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl group;wherein at least one of R1 and R2 is an acetoacetoxy group;and an ethylenically unsaturated monomer.
