Abstract: Flame retardant molding compounds comprising polymers of methyl methacrylate having an average molecular weight between 1.times.10.sup.5 and 2.times.10.sup.5, which molding compounds contain from 8 to 15 weight percent of at least one chloroalkylphosphoric acid ester of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is alkyl or ##STR2## and R.sub.2 is hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, or chloro-substituted methyl or ethyl.

Abstract: This invention relates to a new process for the production of polyamide imides.

Abstract: A polyamide-imide resin composition comprising (A) a polyamide-imide resin modified with a polyisocyanate containing one or more isocyanurate rings and a lactam and (B) at least one member selected from the group consisting of (i) an alkoxy modified amino resin, (ii) a polyisocyanate containing one or more isocyanurate rings, (iii) a phenol-formaldehyde resin, (iv) an epoxy resin, (v) a polyester resin having one or more hydroxyl groups obtained by using terephthalic acid and/or isophthalic acid as an acid component, and (vi) a metal salt of Sn, Mn, Co or Zn, can give fast curing properties to the resin composition without lowering heat resistance, flexibility, abrasion resistance and also giving good surface appearance to the coating.

Abstract: Glycerides of higher fatty acids have been found to be effective as a discoloration inhibitor in very low concentrations for polyolefins.

Abstract: A cling/stretch wrap film having desirable processing and end use characteristics is made from a composition of 90-97.5 wt. % an ethylene polymer having a melt flow value between 0.2 to 6.0 such as EVA copolymer (4-5 wt. % VA content) and 2.5-10 wt. % low density amorphous copolymer of ethylene and propylene (about 3-5 wt. % ethylene).

Abstract: A non-volatile, anti-gel compound having a chain of at least about 5 repeat units of an alkylene oxide and which is soluble in olefin polymers, and an inorganic anti-block agent having a substantially neutral pH are added to a film grade transition metal catalyzed resin containing halide residues such as Ziegler-Natta catalyzed olefin polymer compositions to prevent: (1) gel streaking/pinstriping during film extrusion processes; (2) blocking of the extruded film; and (3) discoloration of the extruded film upon aging. The anti-gel compound has a molecular weight between about 200 and about 4,000,000 Daltons.

Abstract: There is provided an antifouling paint composition stabilized against viscosity increase and gelation during storage, which comprises a triorganotin-containing polymer and cuprous oxide as combined active ingredients, a stabilizing amount of a hindered phenol, and a solvent therefor.

Abstract: A resin composition suitable for injection moulding and having excellent heat resistance, impact resistance and crack resistance, which is composed of polyphenylene ether and rubber-reinforced styrene resin and an amount of volatile matters in the resin having molecular weight of about 300 or less is 5000 ppm or less. This resin composition is prepared by melting and kneading the two resins above in an extruder with a vent under keeping the vent part under reduced pressure.
