  • Patent number: 11091601
    Abstract: A system for producing an in-situ foam, which comprises the components from 50 to 98% by weight of one or more inorganic fillers A), from 1 to 48% by weight of one or more water-soluble, cationic polymers B), from 0.5 to 48% by weight of one or more surfactants C), from 0.01 to 5% by weight of one or more crosslinkers D) which are capable of reacting with the polymers B), from 0 to 20% by weight of one or more additives E), where the percentages by weight of the components A) to E) are based on the nonaqueous fraction and the sum of A) to E) is 100% by weight, process for producing an in-situ foam using the components of the system and foaming by means of a gas or a gas mixture and use for thermal insulation and filling of hollow spaces and hollow bodies.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 5, 2018
    Date of Patent: August 17, 2021
    Assignee: BASF SE

  • Patent number: 10240071
    Abstract: Described are aqueous adhesive dispersions comprising dispersed polyurethanes and also ethoxylated fatty alcohols as emulsifiers. The polyurethanes are constructed from certain organic diisocyanates, dihydroxy compounds selected from certain polyester diols and polyether diols, and compounds having groups reactive toward isocyanate groups and having at least one ionic group. The adhesive dispersions can be used as laminating adhesives, for example for composite film lamination or for the lamination of rigid moldings with flexible decorative foils.
