Abstract: The present invention relates to an adhesive composition comprising: at least one phosphate salt chosen from sodium phosphate, potassium phosphate and mixtures of these phosphates; and at least one resin based on: at least one compound A1, compound A1 being chosen from a compound A11 comprising at least two functions, one of these functions being a hydroxymethyl function and the other being an aldehyde function or a hydroxymethyl function, or a compound A12 comprising at least one aldehyde function, or a mixture of a compound A11 and of a compound A12; and at least one phenol A21.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for electroplating an adhesive composition onto at least one conductive element, in which the conductive element is placed in contact with the adhesive composition comprising: a phosphate salt and a resin based on: a compound A1, compound A1 being chosen from a compound A11 comprising at least two functions, one of these functions being a hydroxymethyl function and the other being an aldehyde function or a hydroxymethyl function, or a compound A12 comprising at least one aldehyde function, or a mixture of a compound A11 and of a compound A12; and a phenol A21. A potential difference is applied between the conductive element and the adhesive composition to coat the conductive element with an adhesive layer.

Abstract: An aqueous adhesive composition comprises a thermosetting resin based on: at least one aromatic compound bearing at least two functions, one of these functions being a hydroxymethyl function and the other being an aldehyde function or a hydroxymethyl function, the aromatic compound comprising at least one aromatic ring; and at least aromatic polyphenol comprising at least one aromatic ring bearing at least two hydroxyl functions in the meta position relative to one another, the two positions ortho to at least one of the hydroxyl functions being unsubstituted. Such an adhesive composition may especially be used to join elements made of wood; it constitutes an advantageous alternative to the use of a formaldehyde-based phenolic resin adhesive.

Abstract: The rubber composite comprises a steel reinforcing element coated with an adhesive layer coating at least a portion of the reinforcing element. The adhesive layer comprises an adhesive composition comprising at least one phenol/aldehyde resin based on at least: one aromatic aldehyde and one polyphenol comprising one or more aromatic nucleus/nuclei. The coated steel reinforcing element is embedded in a rubber matrix based on a rubber composition comprising a crosslinking system comprising a content of molecular sulphur ranging from 1 to 5 phr.

Abstract: The aqueous adhesive composition comprises an unsaturated elastomer latex and a phenol/aldehyde resin based on an aldehyde of formula (I): in which X comprises N, S or O and R represents —CHO, and based on a polyphenol comprising one or more aromatic nucleus/nuclei. When there is just one aromatic nucleus, the latter bears two or three hydroxyl functional groups in the meta position with respect to each other, the remainder of the aromatic nucleus being unsubstituted. When there are several aromatic nuclei, at least two of them each bear two or three hydroxyl functional groups in the meta position with respect to each other, the two positions ortho to at least one of these hydroxyl functional groups being unsubstituted.
