Abstract: The present invention provides siliceous-based polyurea compositions, obtainable by reacting isocyanates, alkali silicates and hydratable aluminosilicates. Moreover, the present invention provides a process for the manufacture of these compositions, comprising the steps of mixing a hydratable aluminosilicate with an aqueous silicate and reacting this mixture with a polyisocyanate and/or a polyisocyanate prepolymer, optionally in the presence of a polyol and/or with the inclusion of an inert filler. Finally, the present invention provides the use of these compositions in the fields of aviation, automotive assemblies, construction, consumer products, fire protection, furniture components, insulation, shipbuilding and/or windmill construction. The compositions obtainable according to the present invention are lightweight, high load bearing, flame retarding materials.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of aqueous, isocyanate-free, polyurethane dispersions with a solid content of ?30 wt. % and a solvent content of ?10 wt. % in sports floor coverings. The inventive polyurethane dispersions are particularly suitable for use as bonding agents for elastic coatings, spray coatings or flow coatings on elastic or rigid undersurfaces, adhesion promoters or primary coatings, fillers for sealing pores, adhesives for gluing pre-fabricated plastic coatings or for sealing sports floor coverings. The inventive polyurethane dispersions are environmentally friendly and easy to manufacture. They are also partly characterized by improved product features, e.g. mechanical properties, UV resistance and color stability, with respect to the corresponding sports floor coverings.

Abstract: A solvent-free polyurethane-polymer hybrid dispersion having a high solids content of polymer or formulation constituents is described, which is obtainable by a) the multistage preparation of a polyurethane base dispersion and b) by the subsequent preparation of a polyurethane-polymer hybrid dispersion. This polyurethane-polymer hybrid dispersion not only is distinguished by complete freedom from solvents and high solids contents in combination with low viscosity and a technically simple preparation process but also has excellent mechanical properties and, owing to the low hydrophilicity, high water resistance.

Abstract: The use of aqueous isocyanate-free polyurethane dispersions with a solids content of ≧30 wt. % and a solvent content of ≦10 wt. % in formulations for crack sealing coating systems is disclosed. Said use may be in a) primer, floating screed, floor coatings, spray coatings and/or sealants, on, preferably, primed building surfaces, b) roof coatings or paints and c) sealing of open-cast or subterranean mines. According to the invention, the disclosed polyurethane dispersions are not just more environmentally-friendly and easier to use, but also give a partly improved product property to the corresponding crack sealing coating systems, such as, for example, mechanical properties (tensile strength, stretching under tension, tear elongation), UV resistance and colour stability.

Abstract: The invention relates to a two-component coating agent on an epoxy resin base, comprising a resin component A and a hardener component B, characterized in that the resin component A consists of between (15 and 18) weight percent, in relation to component A, of an epoxy resin and at least one additional component, chosen from among a reactive diluent, a filler, and other ingredients such as pigments, additives and extenders, that the hardener component B consists of between 20 and 50 weight percent, in relation to component B, of m-xylyl endiamine and at least one other component, chosen from among an adductor resin, an extender and an accelerator, and in that components A and B are present at a molar ratio of 1:0.8 to 1.2. The coating agent, which in addition to the two main components can also contain as much as 15 times their weight in aggregates having a particle size of up to 3.
