Abstract: The present invention is generally directed to fluorine-free firefighting foam concentrates containing a surfactant component comprising one or more surfactants, optionally one or more solvents, optionally one or more inorganic salts, and optionally one or more organic salts. The present invention is also directed to firefighting foam solutions and firefighting foams prepared from such concentrates and methods for their use. The fluorine-free firefighting foam concentrates exhibit Newtonian behavior. The fluorine-free firefighting foam solution exhibits dilution thickening properties.

Abstract: Use of dithiophosphinic acids of the general formula HS2P(R1)(R2) and/or salts thereof for producing chrome-free, polymer-containing corrosion control layers on metallic surfaces, R1 and R2 independently of one another each being organic radicals having 1 to 30 C atoms.

Abstract: Comprises a network termination device (1) at a home network, and, for providing broadband services to different end devices of said home network, networking and service capabilities which are implemented, virtualized, in separate elements (2, 3) of a broadband service provider network, and connected to said termination device (1), therefore providing a home gateway capabilities Virtualization system.

Abstract: Preparation for and a method of applying corrosion control coats to metallic surfaces, particularly the surfaces of metallic structures or metal constructions, the preparation comprising at least one binder system curable under atmospheric conditions, a dicarboxylic acid-olefin copolymer, and a finely divided filler, pigment or dye. Coated metallic surface obtainable by means of the method, especially the surface of metallic structures or metal constructions.
