Abstract: Composite sheet material (1) comprising a glass fiber reinforced thermoplastic substrate (3) having first and second sides, a reinforced film (23) on the first side of the glass fiber reinforced substrate (3), and a layer of paint (24) applied to an exposed surface of the reinforced film (23). The glass fiber reinforced thermoplastic substrate (3) has three layers (7, 9, 11) of wound glass fiber filaments (21) consolidated and fused in a thermoplastic resin matrix (22). The composite sheet material (1) is useful in obtaining hail-proof roof paneling.

Abstract: The invention relates to a tackifier dispersion comprising a resinous material and an emulsifier, the emulsifier being obtainable by a method comprising providing an ester of one or more fatty acids containing at least two conjugated double bonds, reacting the ester with a dienophile containing an acid or anhydride group, to form an intermediate product A, and, reacting the intermediate product A with one or more polyalkylene glycols. The invention also relates to a method for the production of a tackifier dispersion, its use as a tackifier, and an adhesive composition comprising the tackifier dispersion. The invention further relates to an emulsifier, a method of producing the same and its use for emulsifying resinous materials.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a resin composition comprising an ester compound and a polymer, wherein the ester compound and the polymer are obtainable by reacting a diene, a dienophile and a carboxylic acid. The invention also refers to adhesive compositions comprising the resin composition.

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel polyester tackifier, adhesive compositions comprising the tackifier and methods of preparation. More specifically, the polyester tackifier is obtainable by polymerising a mixture comprising a diacid or derivative thereof, a diol, and at least 6 molar % of an organic monofunctional compound, wherein the mixture is essentially free from compounds comprising more than two carboxylic acid groups or alcohol groups.
