Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of transition metal-carbene complexes in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), to a light-emitting layer, to a blocking layer for electrons or excitons, or to a blocking layer for holes, each comprising these transition metal-carbene complexes, to OLEDs comprising these transition metal-carbene complexes, to devices which comprise an inventive OLED, and to transition metal-carbene complexes.

Abstract: Bonded yarn bundle, manufacture thereof and textile sheet materials obtainable therefrom.There is described a yarn bundle having a tenacity of at least 42 cN/tex, comprising at least one twisted multifilament yarn composed of a first synthetic polymer, for example polyethylene terephthalate, whose individual filaments have become bonded together over essentially the entire thread cross-section by the melting of a second thermoplastic synthetic polymer whose melting point is at least 10.degree. C. below the melting or decomposition point of the first synthetic polymer.The yarn bundles are notable for high strength, good flexural stiffness and good hydrolysis resistance and are usable in particular for manufacturing textile sheet materials for use in hot, moist environments, in particular for use as wire cloths for papermaking machines.

Abstract: The flame resistance of a bituminized roof sheet consisting of a reinforced fleece, a metal foil and bitumen is improved substantially by applying a metal foil to one face. A rupture of the metal foil in the case of stress due to elongation is prevented by wrinkling it. The elongation reserve thus obtained is in the range of from 2 to 35%.
