Abstract: The present invention relates to soluble concentrate compositions useful in agriculture to control pests harmful to commercial crops, including ornamental plants, comprising (i) abamectin; (ii) polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monolaurate; (iii) polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monooleate; wherein the weight ratio of polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monolaurate to polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monooleate is from 1:2.5 to 15:1.

Abstract: A composite film includes a first film and a second film contiguous to the first film. The first film includes a light transmissive material. In one embodiment, the second film includes a polydiorganosiloxane polyamide block copolymer. In another embodiment, the second film includes a polydiorganosiloxane polyoxamide block copolymer.

Abstract: A multilayer film includes a first layer of a first polymeric material and a second layer of a second polymeric material. The first material has a first index of refraction and the second material has a second index of refraction less than the first index of refraction. In one embodiment, the second material includes a polydiorganosiloxane polyamide block copolymer. In another embodiment, the second material includes a polydiorganosiloxane polyoxamide block copolymer.

Abstract: A moulding powder which is curable with the application of heat and pressure, comprising a mechanical mixture consisting of: a) a powdered epoxy compound containing on average more than one epoxy group in the molecule and having a softening point of above 60.degree. C., b) a powdered aliphatic or N-heterocyclic amine or a powdered amino group-containing adduct based on an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, araliphatic or N-heterocyclic amine containing on average more than one amino group in the molecule and having a melting point or softening point of above 60.degree. C. and, optionally, c) customary additives for moulding powders, the particles of a) and b) being smaller than 200 .mu.m, is excellently suited for the preparation of coatings on heat-sensitive substrates and is used in particular in powder coating.

Abstract: Epoxy resin compositions comprising an epoxy resin which is liquid at room temperature and has on average more than one epoxy group per molecule and a quaternary perhydroazepinium salt or a quaternary octahydroazocinium salt as advancement catalyst, when advanced with compounds having two phenolic hydroxyl groups, give excellent products having low viscosity and good viscosity stability, which products can be used, for example, for surface protection, preferably as binder for coatings and paints.
