The polymerization reactions of the synthesized N-alkyl(methyl, n-butyl, n-heptyl, n-dodecyl)-N-allyl-N-(β-chloro)allylamines (AABA) were carried out in solutions of mineral acids (HCl, HNO₃, H₃PO₄) in the presence of thermal initiators – ammonium persulfate (AP) and azo-bis-isobutyric acide dinitrile (ABD). Radical polymerization of AABA was performed using AP and ABD with initiator concentration 4^.10^-4 mol/l and at a temperature 60⁰C, the reaction was 10–24 hours. In this way, it is not possible to obtain sufficiently high molecular mass of the polymerization products, although PA is more effective than ABD. However, during the photopolymerization of AABA in solutions of concentrated acids in the presence of photoinitiators – uranyldiaquadiacetate and uranyldipivalate with an initiator concentration of  4^.10^-4 mol/l, water soluble polymers were obtained with sufficiently high characteristic viscosity for a given amine
