Abstract: Torsion spring device includes an outer housing, an inner housing located in the outer housing, and an elastic element. The elastic element supports the inner housing relative to the outer housing such that a restoring force is built up between the outer housing and the inner housing as a result of a deflection caused when the outer housing and the inner housing are rotated relative to one another. The restoring force-deflection curve can be adjusted by a choice of shape and/or material of the outer housing, of the inner housing, and of the elastic element and/or wherein the hysteresis can be adjusted by a choice of shape and/or material of the outer housing, of the inner housing and of the elastic element.

Abstract: A description is given of the use of phenolic antioxidants of formulae (1) and/or (2) and/or (3) for stabilizing body-care and household products.

Abstract: A description is given of the use of light stabilizers of formulae (1) and/or (2) for protecting body-care and household products from photolytic degradation.

Abstract: The invention relates to cleaning compositions comprising (a1) a phenolic antioxidant of the formula (1) and/or (2); and/or (a2) an antioxidant of the formula (3); and (b) a surfactant comprising a long alkyl or alkenyl chain. The antioxidants used according to the invention have excellent reactivity, good stability to hydrolysis, particularly in an alkaline medium, and, because of their solubility, can be easily incorporated into the soap formulations.

Abstract: A central powder supply system, referred to as a so-called powder center (1) is made available for use especially in high-performance industrial powder coating installations. The powder center (1) is divided into two separate chambers (2, 3), an operating chamber (2) and a powder chamber (3). Both chambers (2, 3) can be connected with a powder separating device via an opening which can be closed off. The powder chamber (3) essentially houses the powder preparation device (5), while the operating chamber (2) contain the operating parts (22) and supply parts (20, 21). The powder preparation device (5) comprises a height-adjustable lifting table (7) with vibration device for the powder supply container (6 positioned thereon. In addition, there is a suction plate (12) which serves as suction device and has through openings (13). The suction plate (12) is surrounded by a strain basket (17) which, optionally, has a support basket (18).

Abstract: A method for cleaning an interior of a coating booth is proposed in which blast air is used as at least one of the means for cleaning. For primary cleaning of the coating booth, blast air and corresponding suction operations are used, whereby blowing and suction can be carried out simultaneously, cyclically or sequentially. The invention also relates to a coating booth. The floor and/or the ceiling of the coating booth are formed by a separate floor part and/or a ceiling part which are movable relative to the peripheral wall. The floor part and/or the ceiling part include a cleaning device which can optionally be integrated with the respective floor part and/or ceiling part. The floor part and/or the ceiling part hence operate as a cleaning device for the coating booth. The cleaning device can be displaced in the interior space of the coating booth in a longitudinal direction.

Abstract: Polyolefin mouldings which have excellent stability on permanent contact with extracting media comprise, as stabilizers, a selected mixture comprising an organic phosphite or phosphonite and a specially selected group of sterically hindered phenols or a certain group of sterically hindered amines. In addition, a selected three-component mixture comprising a phosphite or phosphonite, a phenolic antioxidant and a certain group of sterically hindered amines is particularly suitable as stabilizer for polyolefin moldings which are in permanent contact with extracting media.

Abstract: A powder coating cabin includes a column-like housing defining an interior space between a ceiling and a bottom, with the bottom being substantially of flat configuration, and a coating unit arranged on the housing for spraying powder onto an object. The powder coating unit is further provided with a cleaning unit which is so received in the housing as to be movable between a stand-by position in which the cleaning unit is arranged at least partially underneath the bottom and an operative phase for automatically cleaning at least the inner wall surfaces of the housing, whereby the bottom is suitably so designed as to clear a passage for the cleaning unit.
