Abstract: The invention relates to the use of specific fluorosurfactants for increasing the efficacy of antioxidants, in particular in cosmetic, dermatological preparations and medicinal products, and to specific mixtures and preparations

Abstract: The present invention relates to lustrous black interference pigments based on a substrate mixture, characterised in that it has (A) a coating of Fe3O4 (B) a colorless coating consisting of one or more layers each having a refractive index of n?1.8, (C) optionally a coating with an absorbent, high-refractive-index material which only covers part of the surface, and optionally (D) an outer protective layer, and to the use thereof in paints, coatings, powder coatings, printing inks, plastics, ceramic materials, glasses, for the laser marking of papers and plastics, in cosmetic formulations and for the preparation of pigment compositions and dry preparations.

Abstract: The present invention relates to lustrous black interference pigments based on a substrate mixture, characterised in that it has (A) a coating of Fe3O4 (B) a colourless coating consisting of one or more layers each having a refractive index of n?1.8, (C) optionally a coating with an absorbent, high-refractive-index material which only covers part of the surface, and optionally (D) an outer protective layer, and to the use thereof in paints, coatings, powder coatings, printing inks, plastics, ceramic materials, glasses, for the laser marking of papers and plastics, in cosmetic formulations and for the preparation of pigment compositions and dry preparations.

Abstract: Interference pigments having a mass tone based on multicoated flake-form substrates, which have on the substrate:

Abstract: The present invention relates to colored interference pigments based on multicoated, platelet-shaped substrates, which are distinguished in that they comprise (A) a colored coating having a refractive index of n>1.8, (B) a colorless coating having a refractive index of n>1.8, (C) a colorless coating having a refractive index of n≦1.8, (D) a colorless coating having a refractive index of n>1.8, and optionally (E) an outer protective layer, and to their use in paints, surface coatings, printing inks, plastics, ceramic materials, glasses, for laser marking, in cosmetic formulations and for the production of pigment preparations and dry preparations.

Abstract: The present invention relates to coloured interference pigments based on multicoated, platelet-shaped substrates, which are distinguished in that they comprise

Abstract: The invention relates to preparations of monodisperse spherical oxide particles in the form of free-flowing powders of agglomerates in which the particles are bonded to one another by a binder. With these preparations, the oxide particles can be homogeneously dispersed in polymer systems with particular ease.

Abstract: Spherical SiO.sub.2 particles with a size of from 5 to 500 nm coated at individual points with TiO.sub.2, Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3 or ZrO.sub.2 particles with a size of less than 60 nm. The coated SiO.sub.2 particles can be aftercoated with silanes or further metal oxides. The products obtained are used for pigmenting paints, printing inks, plastics and coatings or as sunscreen agents.
