Polyepiiodohydrin was prepared from polyepichlorohydrin by the Finkelstein reaction with sodium iodide in butanone. An 88% degree of replacement of chlorine by iodine was obtained. The reaction of iodides with polyepichlorohydrin was accompanied by a substantial drop in molecular weight. The copolymer, which contains eight epiiodohydrin units per epichlorohydrin unit, has a glass transition temperature of 1°C and a density of 2.2 g/cm 3 . Properties of epiiodohydrin homopolymer were estimated by extrapolation of copolymer data.
