Abstract: Cellulose filament medium for growing plant seedlings, comprising mixture of water and cellulose filaments, the cellulose filaments being at a consistency of between about 4% and 50% in the mixture. Composition of matter suitable for forming a cellulose filament medium for growing plant seedlings, comprising: mixture of water and cellulose filaments, the cellulose filaments being at a consistency of between about 28% and 35% in the mixture. Method of forming a medium for growing plant seedlings, comprising: adding a sufficient amount of water to a mixture of water and cellulose filaments, the cellulose filaments being at a consistency of between about 28% and 35% in the mixture, to lower the consistency to between about 14% to 27%. Method of growing plant seedlings comprising: implanting plant seeds in a mixture of water and cellulose filaments, the cellulose filaments being at a consistency of between about 4% and 50% in the mixture.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing a thermoplastic resin comprising the following steps: a) mixing: •a thermoplastic copolyester (A) having a shore A hardness of less than 95; and •a silicone elastomer (B) comprising a polydiorganosiloxane gum having a plasticity of at least 30 and having on average at least 2 alkenyl groups per polymeric chain and optionally a reinforcing agent in the range of 0 to 50 wt % based on the weight of the polydiorganosiloxane gum; and •a radical initiator (C) in an amount of 0.01 to 5 wt % based on the weight of the silicone elastomer; and •optionally an adhesion additive (D); wherein the weight ratio of the silicone elastomer to the thermoplastic copolyester (B:A) is from 15:85 to 99.5:0.5; b) dynamically vulcanizing the silicone elastomer in the thermoplastic copolyester at an elevated temperature. The invention also relates to a thermoplastic resin itself.
