  • Patent number: 11124674
    Abstract: A method for curing a mixture of a matrix and a curing agent based on sulfur-containing polymers on command and so rapidly that a tack-free surface results. A method for coating a substrate with the composition and of curing a sealant is also provided. The matrix and curing agent containing sulfur-containing polymers. The mixture is an uncured mixture with an isocyanate content, and the matrix is uncured and contains a mercaptan-terminated base polymer based on at least one polyether, polythioether, polysulfide or copolymers thereof. The uncured matrix, the curing agent, or both contain at least one photoinitiator based on sterically-inhibited tertiary amines. The mixture cures in the temperature range of ?10 to +70° C. after the high-energy actinic radiation is applied. Corresponding matrices A, mixtures B, curing agents, sealant systems, and substrates, e.g., aircraft are contemplated.

  • Patent number: 10717107
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a sealing compound for coating a substrate, which is a mixture of a predominantly uncured base mass and a curing agent containing at least one epoxy composition, wherein the base mass contains a mercapto-terminated base polymer based on polyether, polythioether, polythioethersulfide, polysulfide, copolymers thereof and/or mixtures thereof, wherein the base mass, the curing agent or both contain at least one photoinitiator based on a sterically hindered nitrogen-containing organic base, and, through the effects of high-energy actinic radiation, the at least one photoinitiator dissociates at least one radical per molecule based on a nitrogen-containing organic base, from which a nitrogen-containing organic base having a pKa value of the conjugated acid in the region of 6 to 30 is formed, which acts as an active catalyst for the curing of the base mass. The present invention also relates to a corresponding method for coating a substrate with a sealing compound.

  • Patent number: 9964180
    Abstract: A gearing is described as having a pinion and a wheel, the wheel having two toothing regions which are set apart from each other, in particular on one of its end faces, the toothing of the pinion meshing with the toothing regions, the toothing in particular being continuous, i.e., uninterrupted throughout, the pinion axis being perpendicular to and set apart from the wheel axis.
