Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar of Miscanthus plant named ‘Gentle Breeze’ that is characterized by an upright plant habit, arching foliage which turns intense orange-red in October, and flowers which are silky silver-white in appearance, is disclosed. In combination, these traits set ‘Gentle Breeze’ apart from all other existing varieties of Miscanthus known to the inventor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for coating light alloy rims, to coating materials for use in this method, and to the coated light alloy rims obtained in this way. A primer layer, a base coat layer, and a clear coat layer are applied to a machined light alloy rim blank. The primer layer includes a radiation-curable coating material having an acid number of 10 to 120 mg KOH/g. The clear coat layer has a double-bond density of free-radically polymerizable reactive groups per unit mass of coating material of at least 1 mol/kg. The coating materials can be cured by radiation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to new uses of condensation resins made from urea, formaldehyde, and CH-acidic aldehydes.

Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar of Miscanthus plant named ‘Little Miss’ that is characterized by compact mounding habit, short height, green foliage becoming red early in the season and turning to dark burgundy red by fall. In combination these traits set ‘Little Miss’ apart from all other existing varieties of Miscanthus known to the inventor.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for producing moldings, in which a pigmented coating composition (P) and a free-radically crosslinkable coating composition (K), which after crosslinking to completion produces a transparent coating (KE) are applied to a support sheet, wherein a dried but as yet not completely crosslinked coating (KT) is produced from the coating composition (K), the coated support sheet is shaped and is injection backmolded or foam-backed, and the coating (KT) is cured or aftercured; the crosslinkable coating composition (K) comprising a free-radically crosslinkable component (KK) which contains hydrogen bond forming structural elements.

Abstract: Described is a process for preparing urethane (meth)acrylates. In a first step, a hydroxyalkyl (meth)acrylate (A) is reacted with a lactone (B) in the presence of at least one catalyst (C), selected from the group consisting of iron compounds, titanium compounds, aluminum compounds, zirconium compounds, manganese compounds, nickel compounds, zinc compounds, cobalt compounds, and bismuth compounds to provide a product; and, in a further step, the product is reacted with a polyisocyanate (D) which comprises at least one hydroxyalkyl (meth)acrylate bonded via an allophanate group.

Abstract: The present invention relates to new uses of condensation resins made from urea, formaldehyde, and CH-acidic aldehydes.

Abstract: The invention relates to radiation-curable aqueous dispersions having mercapto groups, to processes for preparing them, and to their use.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a new process for preparing condensation resins, constructed formally from urea, formaldehyde, and CH-acidic aldehydes.

Abstract: Described is a method for coating light alloy rims, coating materials for use in this method, and the coated light alloy rims obtained in this way. More specifically, described is a method for coating light alloy rims with at least three layers comprising a primer layer (A), a base coat layer (B), and a clear coat layer (C), each of which are a layer of different coating materials. The method comprises providing a substrate; applying the primer layer (A) directly to the substrate; applying the base coat (B) layer; applying the clear coat layer (C); and curing the layers of different coating materials by high-energy radiation.
