Abstract: The invention relates to polymethacrylate acid-polyalkylene oxide block copolymers, to a process for their preparation and to their use as dispersants or suspension stabilizers for pigments and fillers, e.g. for metal oxides in ceramic materials, for pigments in inks used in ink jet printing and for fillers in thermosplastic and thermoset polymers.

Abstract: A transparent coating for windows or other transparent substrates made of glass or synthetic resin, consisting of a flexible elastic polyurethane, serves as a shatterproofing coating for substrates made of silicate glass or as a coating improving the scratch resistance of substrates made of synthetic resin. To reduce or prevent the formation of a deposit of moisture on the surface of the coating, the polyol component of the reaction mixture for preparing a coating pursuant to the invention consists of a difunctional sulfonated polyether polyol containing approximately 1 to 10% of OH groups by weight and a trifunctional polyol containing approximately 8 to 12% of OH groups by weight and having an average molecular weight of approximately 400 to approximately 1000 g/mole.
