Abstract: The invention concerns a storage-stable polymer-bonded composition for the formation of coatings on buildings and the like, comprising at least one organic binder, at least one filler and/or pigment, water in order to produce a pasty consistency in the composition, a buffer system which comprises at least one basic silicate, at least one substance which retards the condensation of the basic silicate, as well as optional conventional additives.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition containing a hydrophobic wax, a silicon oil which primarily contains non-polar lateral chains, a hydrophilic binding agent pigment and/or filler, said composition having a pigment volume concentration of 25-60%. The invention also relates to a coating on a substrate surface containing a hydrophobic wax, a silicon oil which primarily contains non-polar lateral chains, a hydrophilic binding agent pigment and/or filler, said composition having a pigment volume concentration of 25-60%.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a sound and/or thermal insulation element using foamable and/or prefoamed polymer particles which are coated with a binding agent, and preferably with an organic binding agent, and thereafter are subjected to a shaping process during which the polymer particles are bonded and/or sintered to one another, the bonding being caused by way of the binding agent. According to the invention, a non-hydrophilic binding agent is used for coating the foamable and/or prefoamed polymer particles. The invention furthermore relates to a sound and/or thermal insulation element.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition which contains—a wax (W), a silicone oil (S), —a binder (B), —one or more pigment(s) and/or filler(s) (PF1) of an average particle size of 0.1 to 1.0 ?m in a total amount of 8.0 to 55 wt. %, —one or more pigment(s) and/or filler(s) (PF2) of an average particle size of more than 1.0 to 10 ?m in a total amount of 5.0 to 40 wt. %, and one or more pigment(s) and/or filler(s) (PF3) of an average particle size of more than 10 to 40 ?m in a total amount of 3.0 to 30 wt. %, in each case relative to the solids content of the composition, —PF1, PF2 and PF3 being different from each other, and to a coating which can be obtained from this composition. The invention further relates to the use of the composition according to the invention as a moulding or coating compound.

Abstract: Method for manufacturing an insulation and drainage panel using foamable and/or pre-foamed polystyrene particles and an organic binder. The foamable and/or pre-foamed polystyrene particles are coated with the organic binder, filled into a mold and subjected to a final foaming process, wherein the foamable and/or pre-foamed polystyrene particles are coated using a powdery organic binder activated via the addition of moisture and/or heat, thereby forming a binder film that at least partially encases the polystyrene particles, which diminishes the expansion of the polystyrene particles during the final foaming process. The invention further relates to an insulation and drainage panel.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition containing a hydrophobic wax, a silicon oil which primarily contains non-polar lateral chains, a hydrophilic binding agent pigment and/or filler, said composition having a pigment volume concentration of 25-60%. The invention also relates to a coating on a substrate surface containing a hydrophobic wax, a silicon oil which primarily contains non-polar lateral chains, a hydrophilic binding agent pigment and/or filler, said composition having a pigment volume concentration of 25-60%.

Abstract: A method for producing a multilayer molded body for the heat insulation of buildings, for which foamable or pre-foamed polymer particles for forming a layer are used. The foamable or pre-foamed polymer particles are at least partially coated with an organic binding agent, and are bonded in a mold having at least one plate made of expanded or extruded polystyrene rigid foam for carrying out a final foaming process. The invention furthermore relates to a multilayer molded body for the heat insulation of buildings.
