Abstract: A magnetic dispersion comprising finely divided iron power or iron alloy powder having a BET value of more than 35 m.sup.2 /g dispersed in a polymeric binder and organic solvent, whose filterability is markedly improved, is obtained by using certain low molecular weight phosphoric esters of the general formula I or II ##STR1## combined with a dispersion-active compound which contains at least one polar group capable of adsorption on the magnetic pigment. The polar group of the dispersion-active compound can be an acid or alkaline or amphoteric group or a group capable of hydrogen bonding or polarization. The dispersion-active compound can be a polycondensate, a polyaddition product or a chain growth copolymer which can also be used in the magnetic dispersion combined with customary other polymeric binders.

Abstract: An aqueous polymer dispersion gives a film having high resilience in conjunction with reduced surface tack and good aging resistance under the action of light, heat and oxygen and is used for coating leather.

Abstract: An electronic system for controlling the fuel injection of an internal-combustion engine based on the load, rotational speed, and temperature, as well as at least an oxygen probe reading in the exhaust pipe. The system determines basic injection-quantity signal as well as a transition-compensation signal to adapt the injection fuel quantity in situations of acceleration and deceleration. The system stores an engine characteristics map for a wall-film-quantity signal, and dividing factors for acceleration and deceleration. The system generates a correction value (Wkor) for the wall-film quantity signal and correction factors (FWS1kor, FWS2kor) for the two dividing factors. Three methods are provided for changing the correction factors in connection with the adaptation and these are based on a direct calculation, based on an estimation of the missing quantity and incremental calculation, and based on an incremental adjustment based on the evaluation of the oxygen-probe voltage.

C. by a method in which not less than 50% by weight of the monomer mixture A is prepolymerized to a conversion of not less than 80%, and the polymerization is then continued with the addition of the remaining monomers A and the monomers B.These dispersions are suitable as binders for protective coats on leather.

Abstract: Polyethylene and copolymers of predominant amounts of ethylene and minor amounts of comonomers which are polymerizable with ethylene are obtainable by free radical polymerization of the monomers under from 1,500 to 5,000 bar and at from 40.degree. to 250.degree. C. by means of an initiator with virtually complete exclusion of oxygen in not less than n=3 polymerization stages, by a method in which, in the first stage, the total amount of the predominant part of the monomers are subjected to polymerization using some of the initiator required, until said polymerization comes virtually to a stop, thereafter a further part of the initiator and, if required, of the monomers are added to the mixture, which has been cooled by 20.degree.-60.degree. C., and this process is repeated in the subsequent stages until the n th stage, with the proviso that the initiators used in the (n-1) th stage have a half-life temperature of from 80.degree. to 160.degree. C.

Abstract: By means of an electrolyte free of ammonia, cyanide, and fluoride, hence low in harmful substances and inoffensive to the environment, optically black coatings having a thickness of less than 10 microns and substantially equal optical absorption and thermal emission capability can be produced on light metals or alloys thereof by spark discharge anodizing. In comparison with prior art conversion coatings obtained by spark discharge anodizing, the coatings produced with this electrolyte have a substantially lower roughness of this electrolyte in spark discharge anodizing provides an alternative mode of coating particularly for structural components or subassemblies of complicated shapes having greater requirements for accuracy to gauge.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cyanide-free electrolyte being harmless to the environment and to health which makes feasible the production of black surface layers on light metals or on alloys of the latter, preferably titanium, remaining deeply-black and adhesive even after extreme changes in the ambient temperature and having nearly equal values of the optical absorptivity of radiation and of the thermal emission capability (the .alpha./.epsilon.-ratio is about 0.95) by means of the anodic oxidation by spark discharge (ANDF-method). These layers are absolutely X-amorphous and show, hence, an ideal optically isotropic behavior regarding the reflection of radiation. Due to their minmum evolution of gases they offer a high thermovacuum stability. The electrolyte consists of an ammoniacal solution of K.sub.2 H.sub.2 PO.sub.4 potassium dihydrogenphosphate and K.sub.2 CrO.sub.4 potassium chromate. The homogeneity of the optically black layers is ensured by not using fluoride ions and employing acetate ions.

Abstract: High density ethylene polymers are prepared by polymerizing the monomers in the presence of a Ziegler catalyst system by a process in which the resulting solid ethylene polymer is reacted in the melt with an additive capable of binding acids by esterification. The ester-forming additives are preferably epoxide compounds.

Abstract: Aqueous synthetic wax dispersions which contain, as an essential component of the solid substance, a partially or completely neutralized copolymer of a C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -olefin and an unsaturated mono- or dicarboxylic acid or dicarboxylic anhydride are prepared by neutralizing and dispersing the solid substance in an aqueous medium at above the melting point of the copolymer, by a method in which the processes of neutralization and of dispersion are carried out in one extruder or in a plurality of extruders connected in series.
