Abstract: The present invention relates to biodegradable polyester mixtures, comprising i) from 95 to 99.95% by weight, based on the total weight of components i to ii, of at least one biodegradable homo- or copolyester selected from the following group: polylactide, polycaprolactone, polyhydroxyalkanoate, and polyester composed of aliphatic or aliphatic and aromatic dicarboxylic acids and of aliphatic dihydroxy compounds, and ii) from 0.05 to 5% by weight, based on the total weight of components i to ii, of biodiesel. The present invention also relates to processes for the production of the polyester mixtures of the invention, to the use of the polyester mixtures of the invention for the production of moldings, foils, or fibers, and also to moldings, foils, or fibers comprising the polyester mixtures of the invention.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing structured, electrically-conductive surfaces (3, 11) on an electrically nonconductive support (1), in which the structured and/or full-area electrically-conductive surfaces (3) of a first plane are applied onto the support (1) in a first step, an insulating layer (9) is applied in a second step at the positions where structured and/or full-area electrically-conductive surfaces (11) of a second plane cross the structured and/or full-area electrically-conductive surfaces (3) of the first plane and no electrical contact is intended to take place between the structured and/or full-area electrically-conductive surfaces of the first plane (3) and of the second plane (11), in a third step the structured and/or full-area electrically-conductive surfaces (11) of the second plane are applied according to the first step, and the second and third steps are optionally repeated.
