Abstract: Disclosed herein is a powder coating suspension prepared in the presence of an emulsifier (A) by emulsifying a liquid component (B) in an aqueous medium (C) to give an aqueous emulsion of liquid particles (D); and cooling the emulsion of liquid particles (D); wherein the emulsifier (A) has a hydroxyl number of 50 to 250 mg KOH/g and is a copolymer prepared by copolymerizing in an aqueous medium (a1) a hydroxyl-containing, olefinically unsaturated monomer; and (a2) an olefinically unsaturated monomer selected from the group consisting of (a21) a monomer of the general formula R1R2C?CR3R4, wherein R1, R2, R3, and R4 are independently hydrogen atoms or substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkylcycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, aryl, alkylaryl, cycloalkylaryl, arylalkyl or arylcycloalkyl radicals, with the proviso that at least two of R1, R2, R3, and R4 are aryl, arylalkyl or arylcycloalkyl radicals; (a22) an olefinically unsaturated terpene hydrocarbon; and (a23) a dimeric alpha-alkylvinylaromatic.

Abstract: Process for producing finely divided liquid-liquid formulations and apparatus for producing the same, comprising a) a baffle having at least one inlet nozzle and a baffle having at least one outlet nozzle, the nozzles being arranged axially with respect to one another, a static mixer being located in the space between the baffles, and there being, additionally, if appropriate, mechanical introduction of energy, or b) a baffle having at least one inlet nozzle and an impingement plate, there being, if appropriate, in the space between the baffle and the impingement plate a static mixer and/or mechanical introduction of energy.

Abstract: A method of preparing a finely divided emulsion from a crude emulsion is proposed where the crude emulsion is forced through a porous membrane, wherein the porous membrane is constructed from two or more superimposed layers which differ in pore diameter.

Abstract: The process for preparing an aqueous polymer dispersion using microporous membranes.

Abstract: A process for preparing an aqueous polymer dispersion by free-radically initiated emulsion polymerization using an aqueous monomer miniemulsion which is obtained by passing an aqueous crude monomer emulsion through at least one microporous membrane having an average pore diameter?1000 nm.

Abstract: A process and means for producing powder coating materials. A polyaddition resin is prepared in a Taylor reactor at temperatures above the melting temperature of the polyaddition resin. The polyaddition resin melt prepared in a Taylor Reactor is supplied to a homogenizing means and crosslinker is added to the homogenizing means to prepare a components melt, followed by cooling the components melt on a cooling means for solidification to the end product and supplying the end product to a pulverizing means.
