Abstract: Nitrous bridged derivatives of 6H-dibenz[c,e][1,2]-oxaphosphorine-6-oxides, process for the preparation and use thereof. The invention refers to nitrous bridged derivatives of 6H-dibenz[c,e][1,2]-oxaphosphorine-6-oxides, a process for the preparation thereof and their use as flameproofing agents for polymers such as polyesters, polyamides, polycarbonates, polystyrenes, polyethylene, polypropylene, phenolic and epoxy resins.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for preparing halogen-free flameproof epoxy resins, in which a halogen-free epoxy resin is reacted with a polyfunctional aldehyde or ketone and a phosphinic acid derivative, wherein the phosphinic acid derivative contains at least one P—H-active structural unit of the formula ?PH(O) and is used in an amount equivalent to the polyfunctionality of the aldehyde or ketone, to a halogen-free flameproof epoxy resin obtainable by this method, to the use of the epoxy resin as a base material for the manufacture of printed circuit boards and printed circuits and to intermediates used to prepare the epoxy resins.

Abstract: A release agent for bituminous material is disclosed which comprises a mineral oil-free composition containing an aqueous dispersion of a polyalkenamer, preferably a polyoctenamer. The release agent may additionally contain a dispersing agent and at least one fatty acid ester. The release agent also may be used for the cleaning of surfaces such as motor vehicles, road making machines and environmental surfaces contaminated with bituminous material.
