Abstract: The method for forming a finely divided polymerizate in the form of a dispersion (D) of particles (50, 51) for the purpose of manufacturing powder lacquers or fiber compound materials comprises two steps: 1) In a first step a solution (S1) of a polymer (P), which is dissolved in a first liquid (L1), is emulsified in a second liquid (L2). The polymer is not soluble in the second liquid. The first liquid has a lower boiling point than the second and it is soluble in the second only to a limited extent. Owing to the limited solubility the polymer remains dissolved in the droplets which arise during the emulsification. Under the influence of mechanical means—in particular of a high speed stirring apparatus (31, 32)—and by shear forces caused by the latter, droplets are formed, the average diameter (d) of which corresponds to one of the named uses and is preferably less than 0.03 mm.

Abstract: Continuous process for producing unidirectionally reinforced composite materials by impregnating a continuous reinforcing fiber strand with a thermoplastic matrix in an impregnating bath containing a dispersion of a thermoplastic powder by measuring the width of the strand leaving the impregnating bath and using this measured value for regulating the polymer concentration in the impregnating bath.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the introduction of water-insoluble photographic additives, especially dye couplers, in aqueous media with the application of high-boiling organic solvents. The purpose of the invention is to develop an improved process for the introduction of hydrophobic photographic additives, especially dye couplers, in gelatin or other hydrophilic bonding agents in order to produce stable dispersions suitable for storage. This invention has the object of creating a new, high-boiling solvent for the dispersion of hydrophobic photographic additives. According to the invention, this aim is achieved by employing phosphonic acid diamides, methane bisphosphonic acid diamides, phosphonic acid esters, methane bisphosphonic acid esters or mixed phosphonic acid esters or methane bisphosphonic acid ester amides as high-boiling solvents.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process of dispersing oil-soluble photographic additives having a silver-halide base for information recording materials.According to the invention, compounds of the following general formula: ##STR1## are used as auxiliary dispersing agents. The symbolsR represents hydrogen, alkyl with 1 to 8 C atoms,M represents hydrogen, alkali metal, ammonium, andX represents OR or SO.sub.3 M.
