Abstract: A process for the manufacture of a sulfonated polyarylene(ether)sulfone comprising feeding of a solution (S1) comprising a sulfonated polyarylene(ether) sulfone and sulfuric acid into a tooth rim dispersion machine, wherein the solution (S1) is thereby contacted with a liquid (L1) comprising water, particles essentially consisting of a sulfonated polyarylene(ether)sulfone having a foam structure and uses of said particles.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a diaphragm-electrode arrangement including seal from at least one layer material and an electrode material. A diaphragm-electrode arrangement made of an electrode material and at least one layer material is provided either from a common roll store or as a layer assemblage from individual rolls. The electrode material is connected to the at least one layer material by an injection molding process. Cavities and edge areas in the at least one layer material are filled up by the injection molding material and form a seal of the band-shaped diaphragm-electrode arrangement. The injection molding material, in particular TPE, is used in the following stacking process as a seal between the electrodes.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for coating a rigid foam molding on both sides with a plastic film, wherein a) the molding is arranged and fixed in a spacing ratio between films in a capsule, b) the air is evacuated from the capsule and c) the films are as a result pressed onto opposite surfaces of the molding while a reduced pressure is maintained between the films.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of coating a fiber-cement or concrete molding with a polymeric film, which comprises a) placing and securing the molding in a capsule, the polymeric film being mounted between capsule wall and molding, b) evacuating the air in the chamber between polymeric film and molding, c) heating the polymeric film, d) letting down a second chamber between polymeric film and capsule wall to atmospheric pressure with external air, and e) thereby pressing the polymeric film onto the molding, and maintaining a vacuum during this pressing operation; and also to fiber-cement and concrete moldings coated using this method.

Abstract: Process for preparation of block polymers of polyethylene terephthalate and of the polyamide composed of meta-xylylenediamine and adipic acid, and process for their preparation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel and improved polyamides composed of meta-xylylenediamine and having an amino end group content of less than 15 mmol/kg. Also found have been processes for preparing these polyamides composed of meta-xylylenediamine and adipic acid and having an amino end group content of less than 15 mmol/kg, which comprises reacting salt solutions of adipic acid and m-xylylenediamine at temperatures of from 80 to 300° C. and a pressure of from 1 to 20 bar with removal of water.

Abstract: Use of thermoplastic molding compositions comprising A) from 10 to 99.9% by weight of polyethylene terephthalate, B) from 0.01 to 50% by weight of B1) at least one highly branched or hyperbranched polycarbonate with an OH number of from 1 to 600 mg KOH/g of polycarbonate (to DIN 53240, Part 2), or B2) at least one highly branched or hyperbranched polyester of AxBy type; where x is at least 1.1 and y is at least 2.1, or a mixture of these C) from 0 to 60% by weight of other additives, where the total of the percentages by weight of components A) to C) is 100%, for production of fibers or of liquid containers.

Abstract: This specification discloses polyamides which remain stable and do not form gels when the polyamides are exposed to solid phase polymerization conditions associated with the polyester.

Abstract: The invention relates to a seat back for a vehicle with a one-piece supporting structure made of light metal alloy, with a frame having an essentially rectangular contour and defining the upper, the lower and the two lateral delimitations of the seat back. A particularly stable embodiment is achieved by having a cross-shaped reinforcement rib accommodated in the frame in the vicinity of its diagonals, said rib being provided with rib structures arranged thereon in a grid-like configuration.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electrically operated coolant pump with a rotor which is encompassed by a stator of the electromotor and comprises a rotor shaft with hollow design through which the liquid supply to the impeller is made, with the stator being arranged in a stator chamber of the motor housing and the rotor shaft being rotationally held in the motor housing, with the bearing of the rotor shaft being effected by way of roller bearings.In order to increase the efficiency and reduce the wear and tear of the bearings, it is proposed that at least one roller bearing is arranged as a leakproof roller bearing and sealing elements are integrated in the roller bearing cages, and that the stator chamber which is separated in a leakproof manner from the conveying liquid is provided with a dry design.

Abstract: A compact, quiet, electrically actuatable multiple-way valve, in particular for coolant circulation in an internal combustion engine, includes an inlet duct and at least two outlet ducts branching off from a collecting chamber, each outlet duct being respectively closable by a locking part. Each locking part is connected with an electrically triggerable actuating member which includes a temperature-sensitive, electrically heatable extensible material element.
