Abstract: The invention relates to a spray gun with a handle part (3) comprising a safety switch (6). A nozzle tube (1) is connected on one end of said handle and a feed line (2) is connected to the other end thereof. Said spray gun, which can be actuated in a contactless manner by means of an actuating element (5) and a switch surface (4), is characterised in that the switch surface (4) contains an emitting and receiving unit, whereby the active area thereof is disposed in the antenna field (8) of the switch surface (4) and is connected to an evaluating device (7) which is in permanent active communication with the actuating element (5), which contains an electronic circuit, and which authorises control of the feed supply of the media.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of aqueous dispersions to be further processed to electrocoating paints with baking temperatures below 160° C. and baking times of ?30 minutes, which dispersions contain modified epoxide-amine adducts as binders and polyisocyanates blocked by amino groups as crosslinking agents. In this process, polyepoxides and compounds which contain one or more, preferably 2, hydroxyl groups per molecule are converted at higher temperatures and in the presence of catalysts to epoxide-containing intermediates. A solvent or a mixture of solvents is then added with external cooling and the solution is then caused to boil under reflux, if necessary by application of a vacuum, until the temperature of the solution drops to 95° C. to 20° C.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the production of a multicoat coating in which the aqueous topcoat composition contains a water-thinnable polyacrylate resin which has a hydroxyl value of 40 to 200, an acid value of 20 to 100 and a glass transition temperature (T.sub.G) of -40.degree. C. to +60.degree. C., and can be prepared by adding a mixture (I) of a (meth)acrylic acid ester, a copolymerizable hydroxyl-containing monomer and, if appropriate, a further ethylenically unsaturated monomer to an organic solvent and carrying out free-radical polymerization and adding, at the end of the addition of the mixture (I), a mixture of a monomer containing carboxyl groups and a monomer free from carboxyl groups and continuing the polymerization.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the production of a multicoat coating in which an aqueous transparent topcoat composition containing a polyacrylate resin as binder is employed. The polyacrylate resin can be obtained by adding, either successively or alternately in part amounts, a mixture of a carboxyl-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer (a1) and a monomer (a2) free from carboxyl groups and a mixture (b) consisting of (meth)acrylic acid esters which are free from carboxyl groups, of hydroxyl-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomers and, if appropriate, of other ethylenically unsaturated monomers to an organic solvent and carrying out a polymerization in the presence of a radical-forming initiator and, at the end of the polymerization, neutralizing the resultant polyacrylate resin and dispersing it in water. The type and amount of (a1), (a2) and (b) are chosen so that the polyacrylate resin has a hydroxyl value of 40 to 200, an acid value of 20 to 100 and a glass transition temperature (T.
