Abstract: Malleable thermoplastic composite materials are provided. More specifically, malleable thermoplastic composite materials made from thermoplastic polymers having low molecular weight and particulate material are provided for malleable composites having high compression set. Alternatively, malleable composite blends of two or more thermoplastic polymers are provided wherein at least one thermoplastic polymer has a low molecular weight. Further, the malleable thermoplastic composites may be blended with high specific gravity particulate material to form high specific gravity composites that exhibit malleable characteristics.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a high melt flow thermoplastic resin filled with long fibers, such as long glass fibers, stainless steel fibers, carbon fibers, aramid fibers, or other like fibers, and having high melt flow properties. The high melt flow properties of the thermoplastic resin contribute to its ease of production, allowing for the production of long fiber-reinforced thermoplastic compositions having good dispersion and wet-out in the pellet and molded article, and characterized by low levels of loose fiber in the pellet and/or compound. Although any concentration of fibers may be present in the fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composition, the high melt flow thermoplastic resins are especially suitable for high concentrate long glass fiber-reinforced thermoplastic compositions.

Abstract: A synthetic resin is in the form of a metal complex compound. The resin is the reaction product of:(a) Mannich bases which are free from epoxide groups; with(b) epoxide resins;wherein aliphatic hydroxyl groups originating from (a), (b), or a mixture thereof, are at least partially converted into urethane groups by reaction with partially blocked isocyanate, said Mannich bases (a) formed from components selected from:(a.sub.1) condensed phenols which are free from ether groups and contain at least two aromatic rings and at least two phenolic hydroxyl groups;(a.sub.2) condensed phenols which contain ether groups and contain at least two aromatic rings and at least two phenolic hydroxyl groups;(a.sub.5) formaldehyde or compounds which split off formaldehyde;(a.sub.3) secondary amines having at least one hydroxyalkyl group; and(a.sub.4) dialkylamines or dialkoxyalkylamines which do not contain free hydroxyl groups; or from the components:(a.sub.1) and (a.sub.2) with (a.sub.5) and (a.sub.3);(a.sub.1) with (a.sub.

Abstract: Coating bath and method for cataphoretic coating of metallic iron surfaces from aqueous solutions and/or aqueous dispersions of salts of cationic film-forming agents. An additional content of metallic ions from metallic salts is dissolved in the coating bath, the potential of which in the electrolytic voltage series of the cations is higher than the potential of the iron metal surfaces.
