Abstract: Unsaturated polyester resins containing--as additive--polyesterurethanes having free carboxyl groups and/or terminal radically polymerizable double bonds are good starting materials for manufacturing moulded articles with outstanding properties, particularly with an excellent impact strength.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the production of metal effect lacquerings having improved weather-resistance by the multilayered lacquering of various substrates, using a clear layer as top coat and a lacquer containing metal pigments to form the outer layer of the multilayered lacquering which is covered by the layer of clear lacquer, characterized in that the clear lacquer used is one the main binder of which is a two-component system consisting of:(a) a polyol component consisting essentially of polyester polyols having a low aromatic component content and optionally also polyacrylate polyols; and(b) a polyisocyanate component having biuret and/or isocyanurate groups, as well as aliphatically-bound isocyanate groups which may be blocked with isocyanate blocking agents. The present invention also relates to the substrates coated with these lacquers.

Abstract: The instant invention relates to an aqueous silicone polyester resin system having a silicone content of at least 30% by weight, based on the solid binder, comprising a polyester resin having an acid number of from 50 to 170; a silicone precondensate with SiOH or SiOR-functionality; or a silicone-polyester-combination resin; having from 0 to 80% by weight, based on the solid binder, of an organic solvent; from 0 to 10% by weight, based on the solid binder, of an emulsion or dispersion auxiliary; a nitrogen base; and optionally at least one pigment or filler.The invention relates also to the production of the silicone polyester-resin system and to the use of the resin in aqueous lacquer materials.

Abstract: Molding compositions comprising terminally unsaturated polyesters, vinyl or vinylidene compounds copolymerizable therewith and elastomeric polymers have an excellent impact strength and a good heat distortion temperature, strength and rigidity.

Abstract: Molding compositions comprising a "terminally unsaturated"polyurethane, a copolymerizable vinyl or vinylidene compound and a rubbery-elastic polymer having a glass transition temperature of between -90.degree. and +10.degree. C. can be used for the preparation of molded articles having a considerably increased impact strength and a good heat distortion temperature, strength and rigidity.

Abstract: Highly deformable coatings which are capable of being deep drawn and which are persistent to sterilization can be obtained by using a binder which comprises a mixture of 5 - 30 parts by weight of a benzoguanamine resin and 95 - 70 parts by weight of a polyester which contains o-phthalic acid groups, dihydric and/or trihydric alcohols modified by a polysiloxane of the formula ##STR1## WHEREIN N IS FROM 2 TO 5, R.sub.1 and R.sub.4 are alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, phenyl, tolyl or benzyl and R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, alkoxy having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, phenyl, tolyl or benzyl.

Abstract: Alkyd resin lacquers which contain cellulose nitric acid esters can be prevented from "lifting" and yellowing by the addition of bis-[hydroxyphenyl]-alkanes which are substituted in the nucleus.

Abstract: Polyester masses which are curable with low shrinkage containing non-crystallising unsaturated polyesters having a definite styrene compatibility, copolymerisable vinyl monomers and cellulose acetobutyrate and/or cellulose acetopropionate.
