  • Patent number: 5763557
    Abstract: The invention relates to the chemical bonding of a polymer/or polymers onto non-metallic substrates such as cellophane by ultrasonic techniques. The cellophane film is preactivated by contacting with silver nitrate solution followed by treatment with potassium hydroxide solution whereby particles of silver and silver oxide are uniformly distributed, in situ, over the surface of cellophane film. The pretreated cellophane film when contacted with grafting solution, that contains monomers, prepolymers, catalyst, graft initiator and other ingredients of the composition, which is being agitated with ultrasonic energy results in polymerization of monomer/prepolymer onto the surface of the cellophane film.

  • Patent number: 4464510
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a material of composite structure containing a thermoplastic plastic and a fibrous polymer skeleton material, having a high modulus of torsional shear, good shockproofness and being processable by the formation technologies of thermoplastic plastics. According to the invention one proceeds in such a way that the fibrous polymer skeleton material is treated with a resin mixture consisting of an unsaturated polyester resin and a vinyl monomer in an amount of 1-80 percent by weight, related to the skeleton material.The use of the polyester as adhesion-intermediator considerably improves the homogeneity of the material of composite structure, it makes the substance processable without pregranulation on an extruder with a broad slot or a calendrette, and leads to plates the shockproofness of which significantly exceeds that of plates prepared without such intermediator.
