Abstract: The present invention relates to a polyethoxysiloxane (PES) material to be obtained in that (a) a first hydrolysis condensation reaction of a maximum of one group X of one or more different Si compounds of the formula (I) SiX4 (I) in which the groups X are the same or different and represent hydroxy, hydrogen, or ethoxy (EtO), are catalyzed in an acidic fashion at an initial pH value of 0 to ?7, is conducted in the presence of ethanol (EtOH) or an ethanol-water mixture as a solvent over a time period of 1 to 24 hours at a temperature of 0° C. to 78° C, (b) a second hydrolysis condensation reaction of the material obtained in step (a) is conducted while simultaneously removing the solvent by successive evaporation in a gas diffusion-tight container at a pressure of 100 to 1013 mbar, preferably at a slight negative pressure of 300 mbar to 800 mbar and a temperature of 50-78° C. until a drastic increase in viscosity (at a shear rate of 10 s?1 at 4° C.) to 0.

Abstract: Methods accelerate healing of a wound by applying a multilayer bandage to the wound. The multilayer bandage has a spun-bonded webbing comprising at least one partially or completely hydrolytically condensed silicon compound and a water-impervious or semi-permeable first membrane having at least one water-insoluble polymer. The webbing has a biologically degradable or biologically resorbable structure and is brought into direct contact with the wound by placing the webbing in or on the wound.

Abstract: The present invention provides a multilayer bandage, having a webbing for contacting a wound and a first membrane that has at least one water-insoluble polymer and is water-impervious. The present invention further provides methods for making the multilayer bandage, methods of using the multilayer bandage for accelerated wound healing, and kits having compositions of the present invention.

Abstract: The invention relates to a ceramic moulded body, namely a roof tile, a brick, a clinker or a facade wall, consisting of an oxide ceramic base material and comprising a surface which self-cleans by means of water-sprinkling or percolation. Said moulded body has a porous, oxide ceramic coating which is photocatalytically active and has a specific surface of between approximately 25 m2/g and approximately 200 m2/g, preferably between approximately 40 m2/g and approximately 150 m2/g. The invention also, relates to a method for producing one such ordinary ceramic moulded body.
