Abstract: Surfaces are coated by flame spraying onto the surfaces a powder mixture including a high-temperature resistant plastic and a metal, the high-temperature resistant plastic being a polyimide having a glass transition point of above 250.degree. C. and containing low-molecular emittable components in an amount of at least 1.0% by weight, preferably of between 1.0 and 10% by weight.

Abstract: The invention provides a process for the production of sinterable, finely divided molding compounds based on polyvinyl chloride by suspension polymerization of vinyl chloride in the presence of a suspending agent mixture of sulfated carbohydrate ester and cellulose ether. The compounds are useful for the production of sintered molded articles, such as separator plates. The molded articles or plates exhibit a slight electrical resistance and a high porosity with good acid storage volume.

Abstract: A polyvinyl chloride is produced by suspension polymerization in the presence of two suspension agents, namely(a) 10-90% by weight, based on the mixture, of a carbohydrate ester of a carbohydrate having the following formula ##STR1## wherein n is a number of 0 to 99 andR is the residue of a di- to hexahydric aliphatic, linear or branched alcohol of 2-12 carbon atoms, and a saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched carboxylic acid of 6-24 carbon atoms, as well as of90-10% by weight, based on the suspension agent mixture, of a specific cellulose ether or a specific partially saponified polyvinyl alcohol.The resultant polyvinyl chloride exhibits simultaneously the desired properties of very low gel number besides high porosity and high powder density.

Abstract: A stabilizer system for stabilizing polyvinyl chloride molding compositions contains at least one zinc compound of the formulasR.sup.1 O--Zn--OR.sup.2 (I)R.sup.3 S--Zn--SR.sup.4 (II), orR.sup.5 O--Zn--SR.sup.6 (III)and one or more polyoxazolines or copolyoxazoline of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6, and n are described herein. The stabilized molding compositions exhibit a good initial color, transparency and long-term stability.

Abstract: A suspension polyvinyl chloride is produced which is especially suited for processing by injection molding because it exhibits a greatly improved flowability. Polymerization takes place with an ascending temperature control at at least two different temperatures, a regulator being added to the polymerization mixture by a one-time addition at a conversion of .gtoreq.20% by weight and .ltoreq.70% by weight.
