Abstract: Shaped plant growth nutrient products such as fertilizer products are provided as well as processes for producing and using such shaped plant growth products. The products comprise active plant growth ingredients mixed with a biodegradable, water dispersible, water soluble, thermoplastic polymeric binding agent. Preferably, the shaped products are in tablet form and the active plant growth ingredient comprises a fertilizer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the radical cold curing of synthetic resins based on poly(meth)acrylate-urethane(meth)acrylates in urethane(meth)acrylates and optionally (meth)acrylates and/or reactive diluents using suitable additives, and also the use of these radically cold-curable synthetic resins as binding agents in radically cold-curable mixtures, as well as the organic synthetic glasses/plastics, synthetic glass/plastic workpieces and composite materials and workpieces obtained from these mixtures by radical cold curing, and also the production and use of these same mixtures, organic synthetic glasses/plastics, synthetic glass/plastic workpieces and composite materials and workpieces.

Abstract: The invention relates to a synthetic resin, based on partly cross-linked poly(meth)acrylate-urethane-(meth)acrylates in urethane(meth)acrylates, obtainable by: (a) provision of (meth)acrylate monomers (I), which have no groups reactive to isocyanate groups and (meth)acrylate monomers (II), with (a) group(s) reactive to isocyanate groups, (b) polymerization of the (meth)acrylate monomers (I) and (II) to give a poly(meth)acrylate (III), with groups reactive to isocyanate groups, (c) reaction of the poly(meth)acrylate (III) with an isocyanate compound (IV), with more than one isocyanate group, in such a manner that 5 to 40% of the isocyanate groups of the isocyanate compound (IV) react with the above groups reactive to isocyanate groups, whereby partial cross-linking of (III) with an increase in weight average molecular weight by a factor of 2 to 20 occurs, in which one given (IV) reacts with more than one of the isocyanate groups thereof with more than one given (III) and (d) reaction of the compound obtained i

Abstract: Composition comprising (a) at least one component selected from phenolic resins, amino resins, polyfunctional isocyanates and derivatives thereof, and (b) at least one cyclopentadiene adduct as an additional component obtainable by reacting at least one unsaturated ester product with an optionally substituted cyclopentadiene, wherein the unsaturated ester product is obtainable by reacting an alcohol component, comprising a mono- or polyhydric alcohol, with a carboxylic acid component comprising a mono- or polybasic carboxylic acid or a derivative thereof, with the proviso that the mono- or polyhydric alcohol and/or the mono- or polybasic carboxylic acid comprise at least one non-aromatic double bond and with the proviso that the mono- or polyhydric alcohol is polyhydric and/or the mono- or polybasic carboxylic acid is polybasic, wherein the component (b) comprises functional groups (B) which can enter into a chemical bond with the functional groups (A) of component (a).
