Abstract: The disclosure concerns sterically hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) with low basicity at the nitrogen atom and high thermal stability. They are characterized by their spiro-substitution in the 4-position of the tetramethylpiperidine ring (Spiro-NOR-HALS). These compounds are useful in stabilizing polymers, especially thermoplastic polyolefins, against the deleterious effects of oxidative, thermal and actinic radiation. The compounds are also useful in stabilizing acid catalyzed and ambient cured coatings systems. They are particularly useful when high processing temperatures are additional required.

Abstract: The instant invention pertains to novel bi- or tricyclic sterically hindered alkoxyamines, their precursors, a process for their preparation and their use as light stabilizers for polymers or coatings, as flame retardants, as peroxide substitutes (rheology modifiers) or carbon radical scavengers.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electric brake system for a motor vehicle wherein each wheel of the vehicle includes a brake actuator (2) assigned thereto. The invention also relates to a brake actuator for an electric brake system. During a braking operation, the brake linings (20a and 20b) are pressed against the brake disc (30) with a pregiven braking force by a braking-force device (10) of the brake actuator (2). At least one of the brake actuators (2) includes a sensor with which an elastic deformation of the braking-force device (10) or the brake yoke (18) is measured. This elastic deformation occurs during a braking operation. The braking force is determined from the measured elastic deformation and this braking force is then available for the control of the brake system.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a brake actuator (2) having a transmission including an electric motor (6) as a drive element, a converting device for converting the rotational movement of the electric motor (6) into a linear movement and a hydraulic transmission (16, 18, 20) for transmitting the linear movement of the converting device to a friction lining (22) of a brake. The brake actuator of the invention does not require a mechanical transmission connected between the motor and the hydraulic transmission. This is achieved with a converting device configured as a spindle unit (12, 14) and is realized in that the spindle nut (12) is fixedly connected to the electric motor (6) and the spindle rod (14) is fixedly connected to a first hydraulic piston (16) of the hydraulic transmission (16, 18, 20). The electric motor is provided with a hollow shaft (10) for accommodating the displacement stroke of the spindle rod.
