  • Patent number: 11655320
    Abstract: A mixture includes at least two radically curable compounds as a backbone resin, and is useful in reactive resins. In particular, the mixture reduces the viscosity of such reactive resin-containing mixtures and thus the dispensing forces required for ejecting the reactive resin components produced therefrom. The mixture also increases the performance of the reactive resins containing such mixtures and of the reactive resin components produced therefrom. Further, said reactive resins and the reactive resin components thereof are useful for construction purposes, in particular for chemical fastening.

  • Publication number: 20230151221
    Abstract: A multi-component reaction resin system for use with thread-forming screws contains a curable compound. In particular, the multi-component reaction resin system contains at least one radically curable compound and an inorganic filler in a first component, and contains a hardener for at least one radically curable reactive resin and water in a further second component. The inorganic filler has hydrophilic properties, and the reaction resin system is characterized by a low content of radically curable compounds that carry hydroxyl groups. The multi-component reaction resin system can be used with thread-forming screws.

  • Publication number: 20220380571
    Abstract: A hardener composition can be used for a reactive resin system containing a reactive resin based on radically curable, ethylenically unsaturated compounds. The hardener composition contains a hardener for the reactive resin and a filler mixture. The filler mixture is composed of a first filler having a first average particle size d50,1 and a second filler having a second average particle size d50,2. The first average particle size d50,1 of the first filler is greater than the second average particle size d50,2 of the second filler (d50,1>d50,2). The ratio d50,1 to d50,2 (d50,1:d50,2) is in the range of 8:1 to 100:1. The filler mixture is useful, and a reaction resin system can contain the hardener composition.

  • Patent number: 10287504
    Abstract: A composition that forms an insulating layer is described, which contains a thiol-ene-based binder. With the composition according to the invention, the expansion rate of which is relatively high, coatings having the layer thickness necessary for the respective fire resistance time can be applied simply and quickly, the layer thickness being reduced to a minimum and a highly insulating effect still being achieved. The composition according to the invention is particularly suitable for fire protection, in particular as a coating of metallic and/or non-metallic substrates, for example steel components such as pillars, beams or truss members, to increase the fire resistance time.
