Abstract: Disclosed is a process for producing fiber webs by the airlaid process of laying down the fibers and the pulverulent binder in an air stream, which includes a first step of laying a fiber web or fibers up to a basis weight of 10 to 50 g/m2, a subsequent step of laying down fibers and a thermoplastic polymer powder based on polymers of one or more monomers such as a vinyl ester or a (meth)acrylic ester separately or as a mixture in the air stream in an amount of 10 to 300 g/m2 and, if appropriate, repeating this step until the desired basis weight is obtained, and consolidating the fiber material at temperatures of 80° C. to 260° C. and, if appropriate, at a pressure of up to 100 bar.

Abstract: The preparation of an aqueous dispersion can be based on at least one water-insoluble organopolymer, on at least one water-dispersible silicon compound and on at least one water-soluble or dispersible phosphorus compound.

Abstract: The invention provides a powdered crosslinkable textile binder composition for producing polymer bonded textile moldings or sheet materials, comprisinga) a powdered copolymer obtainable by emulsion polymerization and subsequent drying of one or more monomers selected from the group consisting of vinyl esters, acrylic esters, methacrylic esters, vinylaromatics and vinyl chloride and of 0.01 to 25% by weight, based on the total weight of the copolymer, of one or more ethylenically unsaturated carboxyl-containing monomers, the copolymer having a glass transition temperature Tg or a melting point of greater than 40.degree. C. and a molecular weight Mw of 60,000 to 300,000, andb) at least one powdered compound having two or more epoxide or isocyanate groups and a melting point of 40.degree. C. to 150.degree. C.

Abstract: Aqueous coating of copy paper based on a porous inorganic matrix, an elastifying organic polymer and the color paste included in the pores. The inorganic matrix comprises a Zr.sup.4+ polycondensate or Zr/Al mixed oxide gel, which is preferably elastified by addition of alkali-soluble polyacrylates or poly(vinyl acetates) or water-soluble poly(vinyl alcohols) and contains the color paste included in the pores. For production, an aqueous solution or dispersion of the polymer is initially introduced, adjusted to a pH of from 8 to 9 by adding ammonia, and the color paste and an aqueous solution of the Zr compound are subsequently admixed. The coating composition is applied to a backing material and dried in a known manner.

Abstract: A process for the production of an emulsion polymerization aqueous copolymer dispersion with a solids contents of 45-55% by weight of(a) 75 to 95 parts by weight of acrylic acid and/or methacrylic acid alkyl esters of 1 to 10 carbon atoms of which 20 to 80% by weight have a water solubility of at most 2 g/l and 20 to 80% by weight a water solubility of at least 10 g/l(b) 5 to 25 parts by weight of a mixture of ethylenically-unsaturated, functional and water-soluble monomers, 25 to 100% by weight thereof consisting of unsaturated carboxylic acids.(c) 500 to 1700 parts by weight of a mixture of 70 to 100% by weight of vinyl chloride, 0 to 30% by weight of at least one vinyl ester of saturated carboxylic acids of 2 to 18 carbon atoms and 0 to 1.

Abstract: An aqueous primer based on alkali-soluble acrylic resins and siliconates, especially suitable for strongly alkaline substrates, for example, asbestos cement articles, is provided. The primer is characterized by stability to storage and good compatibility with the substrate and with customary coating agents, and it brings about good water repellence, good stabilization of the substrate and a good binding between the substrate and the final coating.
