Abstract: A consolidation agent for molded articles and geological formations from porous or particulate materials, containing a hydrolysate or precondensate of (a) at least one organosilane of the general formula (I) RnSiX4-n??(I) in which the radicals R are identical or different and are not hydrolytically removable groups, the radicals X are identical or different and are hydrolytically removable groups or hydroxyl groups, and n is 1, 2 or 3, and optionally (b) at least one hydrolyzable silane of the general formula (II) SiX4??(II) in which the radicals X have the meaning defined above.

Abstract: Described is a consolidant comprising a hydrolyzate or precondensate of at least one organosilane and at least one metal compound, where the molar ratio of silicon compounds to metal compounds is in the range of from 10 000:1 to 10:1. The consolidant can be used for the hydrolysis-stable consolidation of porous or particulate materials to form moldings. The consolidant can be used for the hydrolysis-stable coating of substrates.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of hydrolytically and hydrothermally stable consolidated proppants is described, in which (A) a consolidating agent comprising (A1) a hydrolysate or precondensate of at least one functionalized organosilane, a further hydrolyzable silane and at least one metal compound, the molar ratio of silicon compounds used to metal compounds used being in the range of 10 000:1 to 10:1, and (A2) an organic crosslinking agent are mixed with a proppant and (B) the consolidating agent is cured at elevated pressure and elevated temperature. The consolidated proppants obtained have high mechanical strength.

Abstract: A substrate having an anti-adhesive coating thereon. The coating is made from a coating composition comprising solid particles of a release agent different from boron nitride and a binder comprising surface-modified nanoscale solid particles.

Abstract: A process for a consolidation which is hydrolytically stable under hydrothermal conditions and/or for changing the wetting behavior of a porous and/or particulate geological formation. The process comprises introducing into the geological formation a consolidant and curing the introduced consolidant under elevated pressure and elevated temperature. The consolidant comprises a hydrolyzate and/or a precondensate based on silanes and metal compounds.
