Abstract: The present invention relates to a transfer film for applying a barrier layer onto a substrate. The transfer film comprises a carrier film, on which a layer sequence is applied consisting of at least one lacquer layer, made of a barrier lacquer, and an inorganic layer, wherein the adhesive forces between the lacquer layer and the carrier film are lower than the adhesive forces between the lacquer layer and the inorganic layer. The transfer film is characterized in that the barrier lacquer comprises a polymer matrix having a hydrophilic component and a hydrophobic component, of which the hydrophilic component significantly outweighs the hydrophobic component. The transfer film allows a barrier layer having effective barrier properties to be transferred onto target substrates, for which this was previously technically impossible or economically impractical.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a lubricating mixture, which contains glycerides of natural origin and fatty acid alkyl esters. The glycerides are at least partly mono and/or diglycerides which form a mass fraction of 10% in the mixture. In a temperature range from ?10° C. to at least 15° C. the mixture has a liquid phase with a solid fraction of 1 vol. %, which is formed from a fraction of glycerides and/or fatty acid alkyl esters. The mixture can be formed entirely from renewable raw materials, has a high viscosity index and is particularly suitable as a lubricant for use in gearings, electric motors or internal combustion engines.
