Abstract: Injection moldable polyamide resin compositions are disclosed incorporating poly carbo-di-imides in select ratios to nylon acid end groups. Articles formed from these compositions exhibit excellent physical attributes in fatigue and friction resistance and in melt flowability. These compositions may also incorporate a variety of additives and organic and inorganic fillers to tailor the material for specific applications.

Abstract: An oil phase solution injected into a mixing flow path from an upstream injection inlet forms a flow from an upstream injection inlet to a discharge outlet, and a rotary blade is provided downstream of a mechanical seal. Thus, a reverse flow toward a mechanical seal of a polyvalent isocyanate and a polyol injected from an inlet downstream with respect to the mechanical seal tends not to take place. A separating film member is provided to prevent the chemical solutions flowing in the mixing flow path from coming into contact with a pressing means, which is for pressing a seal ring member of the mechanical seal against a rotation ring member. A reaction product is not adhered to the pressing means of the mechanical seal, which would decrease the pressing force, and leakage of the liquid from the mechanical seal can be effectively prevented.

Abstract: A toughened polyacetal resin composition, and a process for making same, is provided by mixing a polyacetal masterbatch component, prepared from polyacetal and a relatively large amount of polyurethane, with a polyacetal dilution component so as to generate a blended composition in which the content of the thermoplastic polyurethane is about 1 to about 15 wt % of the total weight of the blended composition.

Abstract: Incorporation of an odor-reducing additive selected from the group consisting of: (i) a low molecular weight primary or secondary amino compound of low volatility, containing at least one amino group and two or more carbon atoms and having a weak basicity of Pkb in the range of 2-8; (ii) succinimide; (iii) anthranilic acid; (iv) 4-amino benzonic acid, and mixtures thereof, into a polyacetal resin to reduce its formaldehyde odor. A combination of the odor-reducing additive with a weak acidic imino was found to have a synergistic effect in further reducing the formaldehyde odor.
