Abstract: The present invention provides a solid shaped plant treatment product, a process for preparation of the product, and a method for use of the product in treating individual plants. The solid shaped plant treatment product contains a systemic herbicide which includes a herbicidally active compound homogeneously distributed in a polymeric carrier material. Suitable polymeric carrier materials bind the active compound in a solid form. The solid shaped plant treatment product can be implanted into a target plant in this form. Particularly, the solid shaped form is introduced into the vicinity of the vascular bundle system of the plant to be destroyed.

Abstract: A thermoplastic polyurethane urea prepared by reacting a reaction mixture ofa) one or more polyisocyanates, withb) one or more compounds having on average at least 1.8 Zerewitinoff-active hydrogen atoms and a molecular weight of between 400 and 10,000, andc) water,wherein the water is introduced into the reaction mixture with the aid of an effective quantity of one or more emulsifiers. The reaction mixture may additionally contain d) further conventional auxiliary substances and additives.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the solventless production of elastic filaments based on segmented poly(urethane)s or poly(urethane urea)s having improved thermal properties and, hence, improved processing behavior, for example during the heat setting of fabrics containing the elastic fibers, by the use of a polyisocyanate containing isocyanurate groups in the reaction of long-chain, relatively high molecular weight polyhydroxyl compounds with organic diisocyanates and low molecular weight diols and, optionally, other auxiliaries and additives in the melt, direct spinning of the reaction mixture thus obtained and thermal aftertreatment of the elastic filaments obtained and also to the filaments obtainable by this process.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the production of mouldings of crosslinked polymers by processing (moulding) of uncrosslinked copolymers of vinyl compounds and polymerisable silane compounds having 1 to 3 hydrolysable groups to give the desired mouldings and crosslinking of the copolymers in the mouldings by aftertreatment of the mouldings with acidic or alkaline aqueous solutions.
