Abstract: A curable compound is provided, which can be obtained as a mixture of at least two components to be stored separately, of which one component includes a silane-modified polymer and the component of a second component includes an acid or basic salt containing water of crystallization. An aminic adhesion promoter is contained in one or both components or a further component, with the stipulation that no component contains all three substances. Additionally, a method is provided for accelerating the curing of a silane-modified polymer, in which an acid or basic salt containing water of crystallization is added to the silane-modified polymer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a kit for producing condensation cross-linking silicon mixtures containing bi-functionally terminated diorganopolysiloxanes, acetoxysilane cross-linking agents, and optionally, filling materials, suitable additives, pigments, colorants, anti-oxidation pigments, anti-heat pigments, and light-protection pigments in addition to solvents and plasticizers. Said kit contains water and an accelerator in the form of a basic neutral iron or aluminum salt with a mineral acid, especially an aluminum alum of ammonia and/or alkaline metals, as an accelerating cross-linking agent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to mixtures containing bi-functionally terminated diorganopoly siloxanes aminosilane or oxime or alkoxy crosslinking agents, and optionally, filling materials, suitable additives, pigments, colorants, anti-oxidation pigments, anti-heat pigments, and light-protection pigments in addition to solvents and plasticizers. Said mixtures contain water and a catalyst in the form of an acidic or basic neutral salt as an accelerating cross-linking agent.

Abstract: The present invention provides a direct tabletting agent, consisting essentially of lactose and cellulose with a ratio of lactose to cellulose, referred to the weight, of from 95 to 40:5 to 60, the lactose being present partly in crystalline and partly in amorphous form and the cellulose being present as finely-divided powder.The present invention also provides processes for the production of this direct tabletting agent.

Abstract: A solar array having solar cells mounted on a substrate and electrically joined by rear connector elements on the substrate and front connector elements secured between the cells to the substrate is fabricated by placing the array components in assembled relation and utilizing induction heating to heat to their fusion temperatures a thermoplastic adhesive layer on the substrate and contacting fusible cladding on the solar cells and the connector elements while retaining the components in firm contact to effect adhesive bonding of the solar cells and front connector elements to the substrate and metallic bonding of the solar cells and connector elements to one another.
