Abstract: Rhamnolipids and/or sophorolibids can be used for increasing coverage and/or for maintaining application properties in the course of storage of coating compositions.

Abstract: Rhamnolipids and/or sophorolipids can be used in coating compositions for improvement of the speed of wetting of pulverulent formulation constituents in such compositions, which leads to a reduction in dust nuisance during incorporation thereof and to the increase in occupational safety in the production of coating compositions. Rhamnolipids and/or sophorolipids can also be used in coating compositions for obtaining improved homogeneous colour appearance of the dry paint film with regard to difference in hue, ascertained from the delta E and visual assessment.

Abstract: A formulation contains a curable composition having component A, component B, component C, and component D. Component A may have at least one polysiloxane. Component B may have at least one polyether bearing silyl groups and/or reaction products of a polyether bearing silyl groups with one or more isocyanate-containing compounds. Component C may have at least one catalyst. Component D may have at least one epoxy-functional compound and/or one amino-functional compound. The formulation can be used in a method for coating components that contact process water in an evaporative cooling system, a cooling tower, and/or a wet separator.

Abstract: A paint system contains an anti-fouling metal oxide and a fumed silica, wherein the fumed silica has a BET surface area of 150 to 400 m2/g, a tamped density of 100 to 300 g/l, and a thickening of less than 500 mPas, in which the percentage by weight of silica?the percentage by weight of the metal and/or oxide thereof, based on the total weight of the paint system. The paint system also contains at least one water-binding organic and/or inorganic filler.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing hydrosilylatable, eugenol-based polyethers, to the conversion thereof into polyether siloxanes and also to the products that may be produced by this process and to the use of said products as surfactants.

Abstract: A universal pigment preparation including a flocculation-stabilizing medium including (a1) reaction products of di- or polycarboxylic acids or hydroxycarboxylic acids with di- or polyols, and (a2) reaction products of alkylene oxides with alkoxylatable compounds, and at least one pigment.
