Abstract: This invention relates to the use of a stabilizer which significantly enhances the compatibility of the binder (polymer dispersion) with the liquid ammonium polyphosphate, called APP for short, in a flame-retardant coating composition. In this flame-retardant coating composition, the liquid ammonium polyphosphate functions as active flame retardant. The flame-retardant coating compositions are highly suitable for all kinds of textiles, but also for paper, leather and fiber materials. The purpose of flame retardants is to retard the inflammation of combustible materials, such as plastics, textiles or wood, and to slow down or prevent entirely the spread of flame.

Abstract: A heavy load support made of plastic includes at least a rectangular bottom part with a leg part into which the fork of a forklift engages and which is provided with props located at least in the four corner areas of the bottom part. Metallic U-shaped profiled rails that are open towards the outside are provided between the props along the bottom edge of the load support. The props can be removably fixed to the bottom face of the bottom part of the load support and are provided with a support area for the corner areas of the bottom part as well as an edge which rises vertically from the support area and encloses the edges of the load support at a right angle, pegs being molded onto the free final leg surfaces of the edge to accommodate and fix the U-shaped profiled strips.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a reduced-phosphate builder system based on alkali metal tripolyphosphate and sodium iminodisuccinate for producing material-protective dishwashing detergent formulations for automatic machine dishwashing.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heavy load support that is made of plastic and comprises at least a rectangular bottom part with a leg part into which the fork of a forklift engages and which is provided with props located at least in the four corner areas of the bottom part. Metallic U-shaped profiled rails that are open towards the outside are provided between the props along the bottom edge of the load support. The inventive heavy load support is characterized in that the props can be removably fixed to the bottom face of the bottom part of the load support and are provided with a support area for the corner areas of the bottom part of the load support as well as an edge which rises vertically from the support area and encloses the edges of the load support at a right angle, pegs being molded onto the free final leg surfaces of the edge in order to accommodate and fix the U-shaped profiled strips.

Abstract: A large load carrier having a rectangular, palette-like floor part and lengthwise and crosswise side walls that rise from the floor part. Either the lengthwise side walls or the crosswise side walls have contact points for several frames disposed one above the other, in the region against the other side walls, as carriers for the inserts (layers) that carry the goods to be transported. The side walls can be folded on top of one another towards the inside, and the frames are releasably mounted in the contact points.

Abstract: A process for coloring an unglazed ceramic with an aqueous colorant solution containing a chromium (III) coordination compound which is at least partially neutralized and stable, including (a) dissolving a carboxylic acid selected from the group consisting of acetic acid, an organic dicarboxylic acid having a general formula (COOH)—(CH2)n—(COOH), where n ranges from 0 to 10, and an unsaturated, organic dicarboxylic acid in water at a temperature ranging from 40 to 60° C. to provide an aqueous solution of a carboxylic acid; (b) adding a chromium (III) compound to the aqueous solution of a carboxylic acid while stirring for a time and at a temperature effective for reaction to form an aqueous solution containing a chromium (III) coordination compound; (c) filtering the aqueous solution containing the chromium (III) coordination compound to provide a filtered aqueous solution; and (d) adjusting pH of the filtered aqueous solution to a pH ranging from 3 to 6.

Abstract: A soldering/desoldering device, in particular for integrated circuits with electric/electronic components, comprises a heater nozzle having a substantially bell-shaped housing formed with a lower nozzle opening. A heat distribution plate which can be acted upon by hot gas is arranged in the heater nozzle. An edge of the heat distribution plate and the housing have formed thereinbetween at least one passage opening for hot gas flowing towards the nozzle opening. In order to attain a uniform heat distribution for soldering or desoldering purposes and to simultaneously reduce the discharge of hot gas from the heater nozzle, at least one return opening for hot gas flowing through the passage opening is disposed in spaced-apart relationship with the passage opening in the heat distribution plate.

Abstract: A method for coloring a surface of a ceramic mass to produce a colored ceramic body includes providing a host lattice material composed of a colorless metal oxide compound which crystallizes into one of a spinel lattice or a rutile lattice and which may be water soluble; providing an aqueous coloring solution containing water; a first water soluble compound including a metal ion which is one of a two-valent metal ion or a three-valent metal ion and which colors the host lattice material; and a second water soluble compound including a metal ion which is one of a five-valent metal ion or six-valent metal ion and which provides electrostatic balance; generating a mixed-phase pigment in the surface of the ceramic mass by one of (i.) working a fine powder of the colorless metal oxide into the ceramic mass and applying the aqueous coloring solution onto at least one surface of the ceramic mass, or (i.i.
