Publication number: 20140309361Abstract: The invention describes a method for producing a foam moulding from poly(meth)acrylimide, an adhesion promoter or an adhesion promoter mixture and optional auxiliaries, comprising the following steps: grinding a polymeric moulding made of poly(meth)acrylamide, coating the grindings obtained in the preceding step with an adhesion promoter, introducing the coated grindings into a mould, optionally adding the auxiliaries, heating the mould, cooling the mould below the foaming temperature, and demoulding the foam moulding. The resulting foam moulding has outstanding mechanical properties and is suitable for applications including as a component in the production of space, air, water and land vehicles.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 25, 2012Publication date: October 16, 2014Applicant: EVONIK ROEHM GMBHInventors: Sebastian Buehler, Arnim Kraatz, Ina Piotrowski, Kay Bernhard

Publication number: 20140302309Abstract: Paper coating compositions comprise inorganic pigments and an aqueous polymeric dispersion comprising dispersed polymeric particles. The polymers are obtainable by polymerization of a first monomer that is liquid at room temperature, has a boiling point of at least 50° C. and a glass transition temperature of at least 20° C. as homopolymer, and a second monomer that is gaseous at room temperature, has a boiling point of below 0° C. and a glass transition temperature of below ?30° C. as homopolymer. The dispersed polymeric particles have an average size of below 150 nm and a glass transition temperature in the range from ?10 to +30° C.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2012Publication date: October 9, 2014Applicant: BASF SEInventors: Dirk Lawrenz, Juergen Schmidt-Thuemmes, Nico Veling

Publication number: 20140303304Abstract: Use of cationic polymers comprising quaternary nitrogen atoms as antistat in coating compositions, characterized in that the polymers are selected from the group consisting of compounds according to the formula (I), polydiallyldialkylamines and copolymers thereof, polyalkyleneimines, polyvinylimidazoles and copolymers thereof, and mixtures of these. The effect of the antistat is that dust adheres to a lesser degree to the coating of the composition. The compositions are employed more particularly in the interior architectural sector.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2012Publication date: October 9, 2014Inventors: Burkhard Frost, Fabien Brand
