摘要:
The present invention provides metal scavengers and processes for the production thereof. The metal scavenger has a structure that is formed by replacing the hydrogen atoms linked to the nitrogen atoms of a polyamine having aminomethyl groups by dithioic acid groups or their salts and that is represented by the following general formula:
wherein R represents a dithioic acid group, an alkali metal dithioate group, an alkaline earth metal dithioate group, or an ammonium dithioate group and R' represents a hydrogen atom, a dithioic acid group, an alkali metal dithioate group, an alkaline earth metal dithioate group, or an ammonium dithioate group.
