Patent number: 7071254Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition, and a method of preparing and using the same. The composition contains at least one water-soluble or water-dispersible polymer or combinations thereof, and one or more filler particles that includes WDP gypsum particles. The WDP gypsum particles are obtained from waste gas-desulphurization plants and have a particles size distribution mean diameter ranging from 13 ?m to 500 ?m. The composition is particularly useful as a surface coating, a surfacing compound, a sealing compound, an adhesive or a molding composition.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 1999Date of Patent: July 4, 2006Assignee: Henkel Komanditgesellschaft Auf Aktien (Hendel KGAA)Inventors: Johann Klein, Gaby Schilling, Sabine Sipmann, Ralph Schuetze, Friedheim Koepnick, Helmut Loth, Klaus Helpenstein, Wolfgang Klauck, Claudia Mai

Patent number: 6828382Abstract: This invention relates to a jointing compound of an acrylate/acrylonitrile copolymer containing 2 to 8 carbon atoms in the alcohol component as binder and fatty compounds as plasticizer and also fillers and auxiliaries. Epoxystearic acid methyl ester in particular may be used as the fatty compound while a butyl acrylate/acrylonitrile copolymer in particular may be used as the acrylate/acrylonitrile copolymer. The combination of the two substances results in jointing compounds characterized by a dramatic improvement in elasticity (resilience). Accordingly, they are particularly suitable for substrates with different coefficients of thermal expansion.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2000Date of Patent: December 7, 2004Assignee: Henkel Kommanditgesellschaft auf AktienInventors: Helmut Loth, Klaus Helpenstein, Wolfgang Klauck, Johann Klein, Lydia Duhm

Patent number: 6726798Abstract: The invention relates to polystyrene binders modified by fatty compounds. The fatty compounds used are, in particular, esters of fatty acids or fatty alcohols, more especially triglycerides of higher fatty acids, preferably natural fats and oils. They may be added to the binder in high concentrations without adversely affecting the properties of the binder. However, their addition is of advantage in regard to the wetting properties, resistance to water and, above all, hardness. Dispersion adhesives, hotmelt adhesives and sealing compounds in particular can be improved with the binders according to the invention.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 1998Date of Patent: April 27, 2004Assignee: Henkel Kommanditgesellschaft auf AktienInventors: Kai Boege, Michael Dziallas, Klaus Helpenstein, Wolfgang Klauck, Johann Klein, Helmut Loth, Hartmut Urbath, Udo Windhoevel
