  • Patent number: 8461272
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process and compositions suitable for reducing by heat the molecular weight of polypropylene, propylene copolymers or polypropylene blends. Azo compounds bearing different substituents are added to the polymers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 29, 2006
    Date of Patent: June 11, 2013
    Assignee: BASF SE
    Inventors: Michael Roth, Rudolf Pfaendner, Carl-Eric Magnus Wilén, Ronan Nicolas
  • Patent number: 8247479
    Abstract: The invention, relates to azo-compounds of formula (I), wherein >N—O—R substituted 2,2,6,6-tetraalkyl-piperidyl groups are present. These azo-compounds have excellent flame retardant properties, either if applied alone, or combined with other compounds, having flame retardant properties.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20020128406
    Abstract: A process is described for polymerizing ethylenically unsaturated sterically hindered amines of the polyalkylpiperidine type (HALS) by means of metallocene catalyst, novel polymers resulting therefrom and novel unsaturated HALS. The novel monomeric or copolymeric compounds can be employed advantageously for stabilizing organic material against the damaging effect of light, oxygen and/or heat.
