Abstract: The present invention relates to sealing materials free from asbestos or other inorganic fibrous substances in the form of papers, paperboards, cardboards or plates. The gasket compositions preferably comprise a mixture of non-fibrillated organic fibers having an elongation at break of < 5% (up to 200.degree. C.) and fibrillated P polyaramide fibers as well as, powdered graphite and an elastomeric resin binder. A new and improved process for making non-woven, planar sealing materials free from asbestos or other inorganic fibrous substances, is also provided. The reinforcement-forming and sheet-forming organic fibers, binders and fillers are homogenized in a mixer and the mixture is subsequently treated with heat and pressure to form the non-woven webs.

Abstract: These photopolymerizable laminating materials consist of at least one film-forming polymer as a binder, at least one organic compound which is compatible with the binder, has at least two double bonds capable of addition polymerization and may be partially replaced by an organic compound having only one double bond capable of addition polymerization, a photoinitiator or photoinitiator system and an adhesion promoter, with or without conventional additives and assistants, the adhesion promoter used being a tricyclic heteroaromatic compound which is soluble in aqueous alkaline solutions.The said laminating materials are suitable for the production of printed circuits.

Abstract: The invention relates to an asbestos-free material for use as sealing, damping and/or separating element comprising an elastomer matrix which apart from the usual process fibers and elastic binders include lamellar inorganic material in an amount of 10 to 60% by weight with respect to the total mass.

Abstract: The invention relates to a slidable closure element for slide closures of metallurgical vessels, composed of a one-piece plate of heat resistant material which is engaged at its two opposite narrow edges by frame members that are drawn together by screws serving to tension them and hold them in contact with the edges of the plate.

Abstract: A slide gate nozzle for a slide gate carried by a closure frame which includes two independent arms pivotally connected with a casting vessel for slidably moving the slide gate with respect to the casting vessel and for moving the slide gate away from the vessel to facilitate changing of the ceramic plates. Rocker frames are pivotally connected with the arms and include rollers on which a guide rail rides in the sliding direction of the slide gate, and the swivelly connected rocker frame assures even pressure of the ceramic plates.
