Abstract: Method for producing a polyacrylate adhesive compound by a hot-melt method in which a polyfunctional ?-cleaving initiator, which is present as an oligomer, is added to the polymer to be crosslinked prior to the hot-melt method and ultraviolet crosslinking is carried out after treatment in the hot-melt method.

Abstract: Apparatus for emitting a chemical agent as a vapour which apparatus includes operative parts and a decorative cover. The decorative cover has curved air inlet channels. The operative parts include a reservoir containing the chemical agent in liquid form; a wick in communication with the chemical agent; an emanator carried by the wick and located outside the reservoir and a fan, preferably battery-powered, to impel air over the emanator.

Abstract: Continuously coating cores by a dragee-making apparatus including at least one rotatably driven drum in which the product is coated with one or several coating materials or is subjected to other treatment processes. The charge of the product to be processed divided into small individual charges at the inlet end of the drum is conveyed through the drum in a clocked manner and treated in individual treatment chambers separated from each other. The longitudinal conveyor that conveys the individual charges through the drum embodies the individual treatment chambers in connection with the inner wall of the drum. The products to be treated constantly rotate in the revolving drum without being conveyed in the longitudinal direction, the longitudinal conveyor located in the drum conveying the product from one treatment station to the next as required. A passage is formed from one chamber to the adjacent, other chamber if necessary.

Abstract: The invention relates to an adhesive bond of a substrate material (1), whose surface and surface-near solid area contain polymer compounds with low active surface energy, and another material (4) and a method for the production of a corresponding adhesive bond. The invention more particularly relates to an adhesive metallized fluoropolymer, such as polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE), as a base material for printed circuit boards having a very high structural density (fine and very fine printed circuit boards) used in the GHz range and to a method for adhesive metallization of a corresponding fluoropolymer. According to the invention, the adhesive bond is formed by a nanostructured transition area (6), containing nanocomposites, between the substrate material (1) and the other material (4), inside which the substrate material (4) which is nanostructured changes into the other material (4). The nanocomposites are composed of substrate material (1) and the other material (4).

Abstract: A spraying device for spraying fragrance, pest control composition and/or a sanitizing composition held within a pressurized container, the spraying device comprising a container receiving section (13) and a switching section (10) wherein the switching section (10) incorporates a solenoid switch.

Abstract: The invention relates to a polyacrylate which as a result of a polymerization process has a broad, bimodal molecular weight distribution. These acrylate pressure-sensitive adhesives are preferably processed from the melt. The low molecular weight fraction lowers the flow viscosity, while the high molecular weight fraction results in the achievement of a high shear strength, following appropriate crosslinking, for the acrylate pressure-sensitive adhesive.

Abstract: Presented is a heat-activatedly bondable 2D element having a first adhesive and a second adhesive, which is suitable for bonding objects with a metal surface to objects with a plastic surface, and which enables a stable and mechanically robust bond even at low temperatures. This is achieved through the use of particular combinations of different adhesives, tailored to one another and based on synthetic nitrile rubbers and reactive resins.
