Abstract: The invention relates to a method for guiding contact strips on solar modules which comprise a laminate of a glass plate facing towards the light and a glass plate facing away from the light, and a laminated solar module produced by the method, the photovoltaically active layer of which between the glass plates is connected to contact strips in an electrically conducting manner. It is proposed that the contact strips are led out from the upper side of the glass plate facing away from the light around the edges of this glass plate, are covered with a laminating medium to the underside of this glass plate and with an insulating film to at least over the upper edge of this glass plate and are held in this position for laminating the two glass plates.

Abstract: Heat-curable, aqueous synthetic resin mixtures for coating woodworking materials, based on etherified melamine/formaldehyde condensates and aqueous synthetic resin dispersions, a process for the preparation of these mixtures and their use for coating woodworking materials.

Abstract: Amino resin solutions having an electrical conductivity of <100 .mu.S/cm for impregnating paper are obtainable byA) methylolation of melamine with aqueous formaldehyde in a molar ratio of from 1:2 to 1:5 in the presence of a tertiary organic amine at a pH of from 7 to 12,B) etherification with a molar excess, based on the methylol groups, of a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alcohol in the presence of an unsubstituted or substituted dicarboxylic acid and/or polycarboxylic acid at a pH of from 3 to 6,C) neutralization of the reaction mixture with an inorganic base and removal of the volatile components by distillation, except for a water content of <10% by weight, based on the reaction mixture, andD) addition of a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alcohol to give a solids content of from 40 to 90% by weight, based on the amino resin solution, and removal of insoluble components by filtration.

Abstract: Aqueous impregnating resins based on a condensate of melamine and formaldehyde containing a lower fatty acid dialkyl amide such as dimethyl acetamide either in solution or as part of the condensate, and a process for the manufacture thereof.

Abstract: Condensates containing urea and formaldehyde in a molar ratio of from 1:2.5 to 1:4.5 are converted into wood glue by allowing the viscosity to increase at a pH of from 1 to 3 and at only slightly elevated temperature and then adding urea at a pH of 7 to 9.
