Abstract: Compounds useful as flame retarders for organic high molecular compounds are obtained by reacting a polycondensate of a halogenated phenol, e.g. a tribromophenol polycondensate, with a metal compound or organic compound having at least two functional groups capable of reacting with the terminal hydroxyl group of the polycondensate, e.g. an alkaline earth metal halide, an alkyl dihalide or an acyl dihalide.
Abstract: Thermoplastic molding compositions comprising 65-80% by weight (based on the molding composition) of a polyvinylbutyral which preferably contains 19-28% by weight (based on the polyvinylbutyral) of vinyl alcohol units, and 35-20% by weight (based on the molding composition) of a plasticizer mixture of 50-99% by weight (based on the plasticizer mixture) of a di-, tri- or tetra-glycol diester and 50-1% by weight (based on the plasticizer mixture) of a phosphoric acid triester. The preparation of the molding compositions by mixing the constituent components and their use for the production of shaped thermoplastic articles, in particular high-strength films for use as the bonding intermediate layer in the production of laminated glass.
Abstract: A granular flame retardant additive is provided comprising from 70 to 99.5% by weight of an organohalide flame retardant and from 0.5 to 30% by weight of thermoplastic synthetic resin as a binder. The additive is easy to handle and resistant to disintegration during transportation and mixing with fabricating resin pellets. Uniform distribution thereof in fabricated thermoplastic articles is achieved by simply co-feeding the granules and the fabricating resin to a fabricating machine.
Abstract: There are provided plasticized thermoplastic compositions useful for molding which comprise a polyphenylene ether resin, a plasticizer, a mineral reinforcing agent, e.g., aluminum silicate, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, antimony oxide, and the like, and optionally, an impact modifier. The compositions possess improved stiffness properties with unexpectedly significant retention of ductility in comparison with corresponding compositions which do not contain the mineral reinforcing agent.
Abstract: An improved polyurethane binder system is provided which incorporates organic phosphorous compounds that impart longer bench life to the binders making them more useful for preparing moldable compositions such as foundry cores and molds.
Abstract: Translucent polyorganosiloxane resin compositions exhibiting acceptable levels of flame retardancy contain from 1 to 10%, based on resin weight, of an organic halogen source in combination with finely divided glass particles. Translucent substrates coated with these resin compositions can be used in the exterior portions of buildings intended to be heated at least in part by solar energy.
Abstract: A process for decreasing the melt index and increasing the viscosity of polyamide compositions by adding thereto an effective amount of an aryl phosphate compound, and thereafter heating the composition until the desired changes in melt index or viscosity are attained.
Abstract: There are provided drip-retardant, plasticized thermoplastic compositions which comprise, in admixture, a polyphenylene ether resin, a plasticizer in an amount at least sufficient to provide a plasticized composition after molding, and a microfibrillar poly(tetrafluoroethylene)resin in an amount at least sufficient to render the thermoplastic composition non-dripping when molten. The present compositions meet even more stringent standards than the UL-94 flame test.
