Abstract: The invention relates to melamine-formaldehyde condensates with thermoplastic properties that can be produced from formaldehyde and melamine derivatives, wherein at least one of the melamine derivatives organic radicals R have been used to substitute at least four of the total of six hydrogen atoms of the three melamine amino groups, and wherein the organic radicals R are mutually identical or different. The invention also relates to a process for production of the melamine-formaldehyde condensates, use thereof, and an analytical method for determining the constitution of the melamine-formaldehyde condensates.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing triazine carbamates by conversion of at least one triazine with at least one chloroformate in the presence of at least one alkaline or alkaline earth metal compound, wherein the alkaline or alkaline earth metal compound is not present in form of an alcoholate.

Abstract: The invention relates to a laminate, the top layer thereof comprising a paper impregnated with an aminoplast resin and surface modified silica nanoparticles. According to the invention the surface modified silica nanoparticles comprise at least one silane on the surfaces thereof, said silane carrying at least one functional group. The invention further relates to a method for the production of a laminate of said type.

Abstract: The invention relates to composite material containing a proportion of wood and a proportion of crosslinked melamine resins, which is characterized in that the crosslinked melamine resins are formed from melamine resins that are, in essence, linearly synthesized and have a shear-dependent viscosity. The invention also relates to a method for producing the composite materials and to the use thereof.

Abstract: Polyurethane-urea compositions are described, and, in particular, elastic polyurethane-urea fibers are described which result therefrom and which contain a dialkylsulphosuccinate as a finely dispersed or dissolved additive which considerably increases the strength of the fibers. Moreover, a method is described of producing polyurethane-urea fibers using a dialkylsulphosuccinate as an additive.

Abstract: The invention relates to a coating compound for fibers and to a process for the production thereof The invention relates in particular to a preparation agent for elastanes, based on a dispersion of fatty-acid metal salts and an agglomeration inhibitor in polyorganosiloxanes and mineral oils. The preparations are produced by a precipitation process from which fined-particle and sedimentation-stable dispersions with a narrow particle size distribution are obtained which are free from agglomerates.
