Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the deactivation of an acid catalyst during the production process of a polyoxymethylene copolymer (cPOM) by adding triisopropanolamine (tris(2-hydroxypropyl)amine) to a mixture which comprises the polyoxymethylene copolymer (cPOM) and the acid catalyst.

Abstract: 1. Thermoplastic molding composition comprising A) from 30 to 99.99% by weight of a polyester composed of from 50 to 100% by weight of at least one polyalkylene terephthalate A1), based on A), and from 0 to 50% by weight of a polyester A2), differing from A1), B) from 0.01 to 2% by weight of an acrylic acid polymer, composed of B1) from 70 to 100% by weight of acrylic acid, B2) from 0 to 30% by weight of at least one other ethylenically unsaturated monomer copolymerizable with acrylic acid, selected from the group of monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acids, and C) from 0 to 70% by weight of other additional substances, where the total of the percentages by weight of components A) to C) is 100%.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing a composition comprising (A) at least one lactam, (B) at least one catalyst, (C) an activator from the group consisting of isocyanates, acid anhydrides, acyl halides, reaction products thereof with (A) and mixtures thereof, (D) at least one polyethyleneimine.
