Abstract
Copolymers of polyaspartic acid which are suitable for the inhibition of scale deposition were obtained by reacting maleic acid, an additional polycarboxylic acid and ammonia in a stoichiometric excess, at 120-350°C, preferably 180-300°C, to provide copolymers of polysuccinimide. In a second embodiment, a polyamine was added to the reaction mix. These intermediate polysuccinimide copolymers could then be converted to the salts of copolymers of polyaspartic acid by hydrolysis with a hydroxide. Such copolymers are useful in preventing deposition of scale from water and find applications in treating water. Other applications include scale prevention additives for detergents. In addition, such copolymers inhibit dental tartar and plaque formation.

DETAI7~ED DESCRIPTION OF THE E1~ODIMENTS
Copolymers of polyaspartic acid which are suitable for the inhibition of scale deposition may be obtained by reacting malefic acid, an additional polycarboxylic acid and ammonia in a stoichiometric excess, at 120°-350°C., preferably 180°-300°C., and then converting the copolymer of polysuccinimide formed to a salt of a copolymer of polyaspartic acid by hydrolysis with a hydroxide.
In a second embodiment, copolymers of polyaspartic acid which are suitable for the inhibition of scale deposition may be obtained by reacting malefic acid, an additional polycarboxylic acid, ammonia in a stoichiometric excess, and a compound having 2 or more primary or secondary amine groups per molecule, at 120°-350°C., preferably 180°-300°C., and then converting the copolymer of polysuccinimide formed to a salt of a copolymer of polyaspartic acid by hydrolysis with a hydroxide.
The reaction is carried out first by the addition of water to malefic anhydride, thus forming malefic acid, or to malefic acid itself, and the polycarboxylic acid, followed by addition of the appropriate amount of ammonia in the form of gaseous ammonia or as its aqueous solution. At this point, the polyamine may be added to either of these alternative embodiments. This solution is then heated to remove water. As water is removed, the mixture becomes a solid and then a melt of the mixture is formed. Water removal continues as the reaction proceeds and the 2b temperature is brought to 120°-300°C. When the theoretical quantity of water formed in the production of the copolymer of polysuccinimide has been removed, which, depending on the temperature, may occur in even less than 5 minutes, the reaction mixture is allowed to cool. Typically, it may take over 4 hours at 120°C, whereas it may take less than 5 minutes at 300°C. The copolymer of polysuccinimide formed can be used to make other novel and useful products by reactions such as those described in U.S. Patent 4,363,797 or U.S. Patent 3,486,380, wherein useful derivatives for cosmetic use are described. The copolymers of polysuccinimide can also undergo alkaline hydrolysis to provide the appropriate salt of a copolymer of polyaspartic acid. Further manipulation to remove the water or the salts can be carried out to provide water free powders of the salts or the free acid.
The polyamines which may be used to produce these copolymers of this invention are amines which have at least two or more primary or secondary amines available for reaction. Preferred polyamines have at least two primary amine groups. The concentration may range from greater than 0 to 500, however, the preferred range is greater than 0 to 30a.
Any aliphatic or aromatic polycarboxylic acid may be used in this invention, but the preferred 2c acids are adipic acid, citric acid, fumaric acid, malic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, oxalic acid, pimelic acid, itaconic acid, nonanedioic acid, dodecanedioic acid, octanedioic acid, isophthalic, terpMhalic and phthalic acid. The concentration may range from greater than 0 to 5096, however, the preferred range is grater than 0 to 3096.
The hydroxides useful in converting the copolymers of polysuccinimide formed above to copolymers of polyaspartic acid indude, but are not limited to, the alkali and alkaline earth metals and ammonia, examples of which as their rations are, Na+, K", Mg+, l.i*, and Ca++, 2n++, ~++, Co++, Fe++, Fe'+, and NI~+.
Polysuccinimide is the amide form of pdyaspartic acid and is also known as anhydropolyaspartic acid.
The term'succinimide' is understood in the art to indude many of the p~ !e, amide and amidine species which are also°formed by this reaction. The predominant product ho; . . . 3r is sucdnimide and this term is used to refer to the thermally polymerized reaction pr~-~~!ct of malefic acid and ammonia or a polyamine. The polyaspartic moieties formed by hydrolysis of the polysuccinimides formed would be principally a and Q aspartates.
The copolymers of pdyaspartic acid provided by the present invention are advar>tageous for inhibition of scale depos'ttion in water treatment, as detergent additives, in oral health care or in cosmetic formulation. Solutions of the salts of copolymers of polyaspartic acid formed in this manner have excellent scale inhibition performance. Salts which may be inhibited are the salts a. Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, and Ra.

and 8.1 mi while a poiyaspartic acid prepared from diammonium maleate required 8.3 and 8.5 ml. This shows that pdycarboxylic acid copdymers of pdyaspartic acid are effective calcium chelators.
Preparation of a polyaspartic/citric acid copolymer with a polyamine A solution of 2.1 g (0.01 mdes) of citric add monohydrate (Formula weight 210) and 0.32 g (.0028 moles) hexanediamine was added to 19.6 g (0.2 mote) maleic anhydride which had been dissolved in 40 ml water at 8a° -95° C., and finally 30 g of 3096 aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide (0.22 and NH,~ ) was added. This sdution was evaporated to dryness over a period of 30 minutes. The slid was then heated at 19~ -220° C. for 10 minutes, removed from the heat, allowed to cool and broken up w'tth a spatula. The slid was then heated at 230° -24~ C. for 10 minutes, removed from the heat, allowed to cool and broken up with a spatula. Finally, the sdid was heated at 230' -24~ C. for 10-15 minutes, removed from the heat and allowed to cool to room temperature. The ~i~.g ~Tiat3r irsdu4fe pdymer was slurried in 40.0 ml of water and a sdution of 8.0 g of sodium hydroxide in 12 ml of water was added over 5 minutes. The sdution was stirred for 10-20 minutes to give a dear red-brown solution, pH 10-11.0 of a copolymer of pdyaspartic acid, dtric add and hexanediamine. The tests for CaSO, , Example 3, and CaC03 (below) were run and the rest~t are recorded in Table 2.
Inhibition of calcium carbonate precipitation by the calcium drat assay.
J
this assay a supersaturated solution of calcium carbonate is formed by adding 29.1 ml of 0.55 M NaCI and 0.01 M KG to 0.15 mi of 1.0 M CaCh and 0.3 ml of 0.5 M NaHCOj. The reaction is in'ttiated by adjusting the pH to 7.5,8.0 by titration with 1 N NaOH and addition of the material to be tested for inhibition of CaC03 precip'ttation at a level of 1.7 ppm. At three minutes, 10 mg of CaC03 is added and the pH is recorded. The decrease in pH is directly correlated to the amount of CaC03 that precipitates.
