Abstract: The present invention relates to a PVC resin composition for preparing foamed polymer products, to a foamed polymer product prepared from the composition, to a method for preparing a foamed polymer product, to an article comprising the foamed polymer product as well as to the use of a surface-reacted calcium carbonate, hydromagnesite and mixtures thereof for reducing the density of the obtained foamed PVC product.

Abstract: A breathable film is described having a basis weight from 1 g/m2 to 10 g/m2, a process for producing the breathable film and use of a surface-treated filler material product as filler in the breathable film. Finally, an article is described that includes the breathable film as well as the use of the breathable film in hygienic applications, medical applications, healthcare applications, filtration materials, geotextile products, agricultural applications, horticultural applications, clothing, footwear products, baggage products, household applications, industrial applications, packaging applications, building applications, or construction.

Abstract: In relaying signals in a multi-hop network, two-way transmission signals are received at the relay device via at least two antenna elements. The received two-way transmission signals are separated and subjected to a transmit processing at the relay device. Thereby, transmit and receive processing can be restricted to the relay device and signalling load between the transmitting end and the receiving end can be reduced.
