  • Patent number: 5026815
    Abstract: Chain-lengthening agents based on chlorinated 4,4'-methylenebisanilines for p-phenylene-methylenediisocyanate prepolymer are used for the preparation of cast polyurethane elastomers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 15, 1990
    Date of Patent: June 25, 1991
    Assignee: Lonza Ltd.
    Inventors: Theodor Volker, Hans Althaus, Andreas Schmidt
  • Patent number: 5020873
    Abstract: A method and arrangement for the positioning and bonding of a solid body (2) in which one part of the solid body (2) together with the bonding agent (6) is to be attached to a further element (7) and bonded to a base (4) is to be capable of positioning the solid body (2), at the point attained after positioning, with both high precision and high long term stability. The solid body (2) is immersed in the bonding agent (6) and this bonding agent is in turn located in a groove of a further electrically conducting body (7). The further body (7) is heated by current flow to a temperature at which the solid body (2) is movable within the bonding agent. Upon attaining the desired positioning of the solid body (2), the bonding agent is allowed to cool through controlled reduction of the heating current until solidification occurs.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 4978791
    Abstract: 2,2'-Dichloro-6,6'-diethylmethylene-bis-aniline or mixtures thereof with compounds of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are the same or different and are straight-chained or branched alkyl radicals having 2 to 4 C atoms, or R.sub.1 and/or R.sub.3 are chlorine and the remaining R's have the above-mentioned significance, as chain-extension means or cross-linkage means for polyurethanes or epoxide resins. Process for the production of 2,2'-dichloro-6,6'-diethylmethylene-bis-aniline or such mixtures. 2-ethyl-6-chloroaniline is condensed with itself or an aniline having the formula: ##STR2## wherein R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 are the same or different and are straight-chained or branched having 2 to 4 C atoms, with the proviso that R.sub.5 can also be chlorine, in acidic medium with formaldehyde or compounds which form formaldehyde. The compounds in the mixture can be condensation products of two molecules of such aniline derivatives.

  • Patent number: 4741796
    Abstract: A method and arrangement for the positioning and bonding of a solid body (2), in which one part of the solid body (2) together with the bonding agent (6) is to be attached to a further element (7) and bonded to a base (4) is to be capable of positioning the solid body (2), at the point attained from positioning, with both high precision and high long term stability. The solid body (2) is immersed in the bonding agent (6) and this bonding agent is in turn located in a groove of a further electrically conducting body (7).
