Abstract: A plurality of annular clutch disks (12) is manufactured by blanking or die-cutting a flat sheet metal strip (2) during which the flat sheet metal strip (2) is advanced relative to a blanking or cutting tool along a feed direction between individual blanking or cutting processes with the blanking or cutting tool in order to form the annular clutch disks (12) from the flat sheet metal strip (2). Each of the annular clutch disks (12) is asymmetric with respect to a center point of a respective ring and includes an axis of symmetry (18) which is not orthogonal to the feed direction of the flat sheet metal strip. Each of the annular clutch disks (12) is axially symmetric at least to such an extent that each of the annular clutch disks (12) is installable in a multi-disk clutch (26) in precisely one first installation position (A) and in one second installation position (B). The second installation position results from the first installation position via turning over about the axis of symmetry (18).

Abstract: Catechol-group-containing polymers with amine or amide functionality, containing at least one repeating unit of the formula (I) and at least one repeating unit of the formula (II) and optionally further repeating units The repeating units of the formula (II) are different from the repeating units of the formula (I) and the molar ratio of the units of the formula (I) to the units of the formula (II) is in the range from 0.5-to-1 to 4-to-1, are suitable for the dirt-repellent finishing of substrate surfaces, particularly surfaces of textiles, glass, ceramics or plastics. The polymers have an excellent adhesion to these surfaces, so that during cleaning of a substrate surface they adsorb to the substrate surface from the aqueous cleaning or washing liquor and realize their effect.
