Abstract: A composition including a) rubber, b) crosslinking agent, c) metals and/or chalcogenides of metals as crosslinking aids and/or antiaging agents is described, wherein at least one of components b) or c) is in the form of composite particles composed of carrier particles to whose surface particles of the active material having an average diameter of less than 25 ?m are applied and layers thereof having an average layer thickness of less than 25 ?m and/or conglomerates of multiple carrier particles to whose surface particles of active material having an average diameter of less than 25 ?m are applied or layers thereof having an average layer thickness of less than 25 ?m and d) optionally other conventional additives. The composite particles make it possible to lower the active material content while achieving comparable properties or improving the aging resistance of elastomers and/or increasing productivity.

Abstract: A sheet consisting of a carrier medium, where at least one antimicrobial substance is incorporated into the carrier medium, is, in view of the task of specifying a sheet that exhibits high reactivity of the antimicrobial substance, characterized by the fact that the substance is in colloidal and/or nanoscale form. Moreover, the sheet is characterized by the fact that the substance is contained in a layer that is at least area wise interrupted or consists of unconnected partial layers. Moreover, a use of the sheet as a cleaning article or in a cleaning article is described.

Abstract: An aqueous elastomer coating composition and objects coated with this elastomer coating composition are described.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composite particle made of carrier particles having an average diameter of less than 5 ?m. Said particle composite is surrounded by a layer made of oxidic material having an irregular surface. Particles, which are made of an active material and which have an average diameter of less than 1 ?m are applied to said layer. The composite particle can be used as a filling substance in polymers and enables the content of active material for comparable properties to be reduced or improves the properties of filled materials, e.g. resistance to aging of elastomers.

Abstract: A connecting device includes first and second housing parts which are rotatable relative to one another and are coupled together to define a space therebetween. At least one flexible cable is provided in the space defined by the housing parts. Each cable includes first and second end sections which are configured to be rolled and unrolled in a spiral or helix on associated contact surfaces of the housing parts, respectively. The end sections normally extend in opposite directions from each other circumferentially around the housing parts so that a U-shaped turning area at which cable movement reverses is formed in the space defined by the housing parts. Magnetic areas are arranged on at least one of each cable, the first housing part, and the second housing part to cause the end sections of each cable to removably adhere to the respective contact surfaces of the housing parts.

Abstract: A rotor for an electric motor includes a rotor lamina stack defining a throughgoing opening and having opposite end faces; and a rotor shaft which is composed of three parts: a central shaft portion received in the central opening and having first and second ends projecting from the rotor lamina stack beyond the respective opposite end faces; a first separate shaft stub received on the first end of the central shaft portion; and a second separate shaft stub received on the second end of the central shaft portion.

Abstract: The invention relates to an injection-type combustion engine having an air intake duct for each cylinder, a fuel injection valve and a heating element arranged downstream of it in the air intake duct.In order to achieve a simple installation for the heating element, the cylinder head has an opening through which the heating element can be inserted such that its heat sink is arranged to be largely self-supporting in the cross-section of the air intake duct.

Abstract: An intake device for a mixture-compressing internal-combustion engine has a heating element for heating the injected fuel downstream of an injection nozzle in the intake channel in order to avoid formation of fuel condensate which is harmful in the exhaust emission. The heating elements are configured in plate form and directed at an angle towards the injected fuel jet such that, on one hand, there is a good heating and, on the other hand, there is a low flow resistance by the heating elements. The plate heating element can be integrated in a flush and heat-insulating manner in the wall of the intake channel. By virtue of the low flow resistance which a plate-like heating element arranged obliquely in the fuel/air mixture flow produces, the heating surface can be made larged and consequently a rapid fuel heating can be achieved.
