Abstract: The invention relates to an laminated glass for use in vehicles or in architecture, having a selective reflection of electromagnetic radiation from the wavelength spectrum of sunlight. According to the invention, an optical multi-layer system having a total solar transmission of TTS<40%, a transmission Tvis in the wavelength range of visible light >70% and a reflection Rvis in the wavelength range of visible light <12% is present on said laminated glass. For reflection upon vertical light incidence, it has a reflection colour according to ASTM 308 (illumination source D65 and standard observer 10°) within a colour space that is limited by the values Ra* from ?5 to 5 and Rb* from ?25 to ?40. Alone or in addition, the laminated glass has a reflection colour according to ASTM 308 for transmission and reflection upon verticle light incidence within a colour space (colour box) that is limited by the values Ra* from ?5 to 5 and Rb* from ?25 to ?40.

Abstract: The invention relates to multilayer systems for selective reflection of electromagnetic radiation from the wavelength spectrum of sunlight, and to a method for producing said systems on suitable, preferably polymeric, carrier materials. Such a multilayer system of the invention is formed with at least one layer composed of silver or silver alloy, which is coated over the whole area on both surfaces with in each case a seed layer and a cap layer. In this case, the seed layer and cap layer are formed from dielectric material. These are ZnO and/or ZnO:X. In this case, at least one such multilayer system is formed on a flexible polymeric substrate, preferable a film which is optically transparent in the visible spectral range.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of sulphonamide-substituted imidazotriazinones of the general formula (I) characterized in that compounds of the formula (II) are reacted with sulphuric acid and the products obtained are then reacted with thionyl chloride and converted in situ in an inert solvent using an amine into the compounds according to the invention and, if appropriate, reacted to give the corresponding salts, hydrates or N-oxides.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a thermodynamically stable modification of the active compound ramatroban of formula (I). The thermodynamically stable form is prepared either by melting of the metastable form and subsequent recrystallization or by seeding a solution of the metastable active compound with a seed crystal of the thermodynamically stable form. The thermodynamically stable active compound can be employed as an asthma agent.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of nifedipine by the reaction of methyl 2-(2-nitrobenzylidene)acetoacetate and methyl 3-aminocrotonate and the use of the nifedipine thus prepared for the production of a medicament.

Abstract: The present invention relates to 3-substituted quinoline-5-carboxylic acid derivatives and processes for their preparation.

Abstract: Apparatus for interchangeable mounting of rollers, comprising a roller unit having a shaft or axis with at least one roller arranged thereon and having two end members, a frame with a holder into which the roller unit is insertable from above, and lifter elements provided in or on the frame and by means of which the roller unit is displaceable between an operative position in which it is supported in the frame by supporting bearer members and a raised interchanged position in which it is removable from the frame.

Abstract: A roller block comprising a frame, a carriage vertically displaceable relative to the frame and having upwardly open or openable holders for the two ends of a roller unit which has a horizontal shaft or axis with at least one roller arranged thereon, and two bearers displaceable between a lowered position and a raised effective position, wherein the upper ends of the bearers form or are provided with bearing members for end members of the roller unit, which bearers are retainable in the raised position thereof independently of the carriage.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to improvements in hydraulic dashpot chain tensioners for the timing chains of motor vehicles. A kit for modifying existing chain tensioners is disclosed which can be readily connected to a chain tensioner to eliminate leakage of air into the dashpot. The kit comprises an open, cup-like oil reservoir adapted to be sealingly secured to the chain tensioner in fluid communication with the dashpot. Baffles are arranged adjacent the open end of the cup member to prevent loss of oil therefrom by reason of centrifugal forces acting on the oil.
