Abstract: A process for preparing biuret-functional polyisocyanates from at least one aliphatic or cycloaliphatic diisocyanate and from at least one amine or water or a mixture thereof as reactants involves mixing the reactants with one another in a mixing unit having a high shear action.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing an aqueous powder coating dispersion, which comprises introducing a liquid melt comprising binders and crosslinking agents and also, if desired, catalysts, auxiliaries and further additives such as devolatilizers, UV absorbers, free-radical scavengers and/or antioxidants into an emulsifying apparatus, preferably with the addition of water and stabilizers, and cooling and filtering the resultant emulsion.

Abstract: During the program execution of a user program, the function code assigned to an output signal and the function parameters assigned to this function code are read first. For each function parameter, depending on whether this refers to an input signal or to another instruction, either the input signal is stored temporarily or a branch is made to the other instruction and its function code and function parameters are executed. The generation of the user program is carried out in a similar way. In addition, however, the storage or the as-valid identification of the user program is prevented if the function parameters of all the instructions of at least one output signal have not all been input.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing multilayer, solid drug forms for oral or rectal administration, which comprises coextrusion of at least two compositions which in each case comprise a thermoplastic, pharmacologically acceptable polymeric binder which is soluble or swellable in a physiological environment, and at least one of which contains a pharmaceutical active ingredient, and shaping the coextruded multilayer material to the required drug form.

Abstract: Solid drug forms are produced by mixing and melting at least one pharmacologically acceptable polymeric binder and at least one pharmaceutical active ingredient, with or without conventional pharmaceutical additives, in the absence of a solvent to give a plastic mixture and shaping the mixture to the required drug form by extrusion, where the shaping takes place in two steps, with the extrudate being broken into shaped articles in a first step, and these shaped articles being rounded off in a second step in the plastic state.

Abstract: Essentially syndiotactic and semicrystalline polymers which comprise vinylaromatic monomers arc prepared from a reaction mixture containing, as components, vinylaromatic compounds, metallocene complexes as catalysts and one or more cocatalysts selected from the group consisting of the strong, neutral Lewis acids, the ionic compounds having Lewis acid cations and the ionic compounds having Bronsted acids as cations, by a process in which the components are premixed before entering the reactor.

Abstract: A continuous process for preparing bead-form expandable styrene polymers in which the styrene is prepolymerized in bulk to a conversion of 10 to 80%, the prepolymer is dispersed in liquid form in an aqueous phase in the presence of suspension stabilizers, and the polymerization of the prepolymer is completed in an aqueous suspension to a residual styrene content of less than 2000 ppm.

Abstract: 1-Hydroxyanthraquinones are prepared in an improved process by reacting phthalic anhydride or derivatives thereof with phenol derivatives in the presence of a Lewis acid as catalyst and in the presence or absence of a diluent, wherein the improvement comprises conducting the reaction in a self-cleaning apparatus having a mixing effect, at a temperature of from 120.degree. C. to 300.degree. C. for from 5 to 1,000 seconds, the self-cleaning apparatus having a mixing effect subjecting the reactants to a shear gradient of from 50 to 20,000 sec.sup.-1 with an energy input of from 0.01 to 0.2 kwh/kg of reactants.
