  • Publication number: 20150225532
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing hybrid nanoparticles comprising at least one inorganic material and at least one polymeric organic material, comprising at least the steps of (A) providing an emulsion comprising a disperse phase (I) comprising at least one pre-cursor compound of the at least one polymeric organic material and at least one compound which brings about the precipitation of the at least one inorganic material, a continuous aqueous phase (II), and optionally at least one compound which brings about the polymerization of the at least one precursor compound, this being present in the disperse phase (I), in the continuous aqueous phase (II) or in both phases (I) and (II), (B) adding at least one precursor compound of the at least one inorganic material to the emulsion from step (A), so as to form the at least one inorganic material by precipitation in the disperse phase, (C) optionally adding at least one compound which brings about the polymerization of the at least one precu

  • Patent number: 8013038
    Abstract: The object of the invention is a method for the dispersion of reactive monomers, wherein a monomer emulsion (8) is fed at a first pressure through a dispersion jet (7) and a second dispersion (9) is fed laterally behind the dispersion jet at a second pressure that is less than the first pressure, both the emulsion and the dispersion being dispersed with one another in a mixing chamber. Using the method, nanoparticle-laden monomer emulsions may be produced that, after polymerization, produce polymer-coated nanoparticles.

  • Publication number: 20080166308
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for tanning the human body and in particular for avoiding application edges during tanning, which is characterised in that at least one formulation comprising 0.1 to 1% by weight of at least one self-tanning agent substance is applied repeatedly, but at least once daily, to the human body or parts of the human body, and to a cosmetic formulation which is suitable for the said purpose.
