The invention furthermore relates to a nonwoven product or fabric comprising the modified cellulosic fiber.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a dispersible non-woven fabric, a method for producing a dispersible non-woven fabric and a wipe or tissue. The dispersible non-woven fabric comprises natural pulp fibers in an amount of from 70 to 90 wt.-% based on the total weight of the non-woven fabric and cellulosic fibers in an amount of from 10 to 30 wt.-% based on the total weight of the non-woven fabric. At least a part of the pulp fibers and of the cellulosic fibers are entangled with each other. At least 20% of the natural pulp fibers have a fiber coarseness of from 1.0 to 2.0 dtex.

Abstract: The rearview mirror comprises a mirror glass, which is mounted to a carrier plate. A display unit is disposed behind the mirror glass and the carrier plate, which generates a light beam by means of an illuminant, wherein said light beam is coupled into a light conductor. The light beam is directed outward by means of a reflection free portion of the mirror glass, so that light passing through is directed towards the driver by means of the deflection optics.

Abstract: Exterior rearview mirror for vehicles, in particular for motor vehicles. The exterior rearview mirror has a mirror body that is rotatably attached to a mirror base and whose operating position is determined by contact between at least one stop and at least one opposing stop. In order to design the exterior rearview mirror to ensure that the generation of noise in the mirror during driving or as a result of shocks is no longer bothersome, at least one noise damping device is associated with at least the area of contact between stop and opposing stop. As a result, the sound waves caused by the constant striking together of the stop and opposing stop are largely absorbed by the noise damping device so that the sound does not reach the outside, or does so to only a small degree. The exterior rearview mirror is suitable for use in motor vehicles.

Abstract: A self-supporting and self-adhesive molded article is described having a glass transition temperature of less than 10° C. and containing a binder and an aliphatic or cyoaliphatic nonionic surfactant. The binder may contain at least one addition polymer or addition copolymer. The article is redetachable from the material surfaces to which it may be adhered. Thus, the article may be attached, detached and reattached to a wall or cabinet surface and may have paper or other light weight, decorative material attached, detached and reattached to it. The detachment and reattachment process maybe repeated numerous times, particularly with intervening cleaning of the surface of the self-supporting and self-adhesive molded article.

Abstract: The proposed process for bonding together two substrates with an anhydrous or low-water-content partially crystalline adhesive which is solid at room temperature is characterized in that the adhesive is first activated by internal and/or external friction. The substrates are then joined together with the adhesive between them. When allowed to stand, the structure attains its final strength after a period of between a few seconds to a few days. The friction destroys the crystalline structure and causes the adhesive to become gluey, and re-crystallization gives it its final strength and eliminates the gluey quality. The adhesive is based preferably on polyester or polyurethane and used preferably in the form of a gum stick without impermeable packaging. It is especially suitable for bonding paper, since it does not cause corrugation.
