Abstract: A crystalline zeolitic molecular sieve of Type A with the composition 1.0 .+-. 0.2 M.sub.2/n O : Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 : 1.85 .+-. 0.5 SiO.sub.2 . y H.sub.2 O where M is a metal cation, n its valence and y has a value up to 6 is prepared having particles with at least 99.5 weight % below 30.mu. diameter, as well as at least 90 weight % under 10.mu. and with 50 weight % below 6.5.mu. by hydrothermal crystallization of an alkali-aluminate silicate by pouring together an aqueous alkali silicate solution and a slightly concentrated aqueous alkali aluminate liquor, in a given case with simultaneous stirring in a receiver, allowing the synthesis premixture to solidify to a gel, adding to this gel a more highly concentrated aqueous alkali aluminate liquor at a temperature between 10.degree. and 100.degree. C. while stirring, allowing the thus obtained synthesis mixture to crystallize at a temperature between 20.degree. and 175.degree. C., preferably 100.degree. C.

Abstract: There are prepared compounds of the formula ##STR1## where R and R.sup.1 are saturated and preferably linear alkyl groups in which the sum of carbon atoms in the two alkyl groups is 4 to 30,One of R and R.sup.1 can also be hydrogen,R.sup.2 is hydrogen or if R.sup.3 is hydrogen, thenR.sup.2 is the group ##STR2## where n is 1 to 10, R.sup.3 is hydrogen or, if R.sup.2 is hydrogen, thenR.sup.3 is the group ##STR3## and R.sup.4 is hydrogen or methyl.The compounds are useful as antistatic agents for thermoplastic resins.
