Abstract: The invention relates to a hydraulic unit for a hydraulic vehicle brake system having anti-skid control. The hydraulic unit includes a hydraulic block and an electric motor for driving hydraulic pumps inside the hydraulic block. The hydraulic block and electric motor are joined at a circumferential joint. For connection, the invention provides that the electric motor is provided with a radial flange, which is overlapped by a surrounding bead of the hydraulic block. The bead is designed so that it overlaps, in a radial inward manner, the radial flange of the electric motor by a joining process, for example, a surrounding caulking. The electric motor is sealingly connected to the hydraulic block in a simple manner by the surrounding joining process.

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel process for the preparation of polycondensate solutions based on polyamidoamine/epichlorohydrin resins that gives products having a very low content of organic chlorine compounds, in particular a 1,3-dichlorophenol-2-propanol content of <0.1%, in combination with high activity and good shelf-life.

Abstract: The invention relates to a piston pump for a slip-controlled hydraulic vehicle brake system. To make a piston of the piston pump easy and inexpensive to manufacture, the invention proposes that the piston be comprised of a sleeve-like shaped part and a valve seat part that is made of plastic and is press-fitted into the shaped part. A high-pressure-side sealing lip is formed onto the valve seat part and is of one piece with it. By means of a tubular support body, a restoring spring is supported on the valve seat part spaced apart from a valve seat of the valve seat part and spaced apart from the sealing lip, which prevents the valve seat and the sealing lip from being impaired by the force of the restoring spring.

Abstract: The invention relates to polysiloxanes containing carboxyl groups that are useful for imparting water-repellency to substrates, a process for their preparation, a water-repellent system containing such polysiloxanes, and a process for the production of hydrophobic substrates.
