Abstract:
A curable resin composition comprising a curable resin in which ultrafine metal particles modified with a fatty acid are dispersed. The ultrafine metal particles are the fatty acid-modified ultrafine metal particles having a fatty acid coordinated on the surfaces of the ultrafine metal particles and a glyceride coordinated round the fatty acid or on the surfaces of the ultrafine metal particles. The curable resin composition contains the ultrafine metal particles that are dispersed well, permits the metal such as silver having antibacterial power to be efficiently eluted therein, exhibits excellent antibacterial power, and can be favorably produced.
Abstract:
Novel composite materials, methods of producing the same and uses thereof. The composite materials which have the shape of three-dimensional object comprise a first component formed by a thermoplastic polymer selected from the group of biodegradable polyesters and mixtures thereof, and a second component formed by particles of a woody material, having a smallest dimension greater than 0.1 mm which reinforce the polyester. The material also has regions of elasticity or softness to provide for objects having properties of flexibility or semi-rigidity in at least one dimension. The material semi-rigid materials can be molded and worked at temperatures below 70° C. and are suitable for splints and circumferential casts.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an earth alkali carbonate-containing filler material having a volatile onset temperature of ‰¥ 350 °C, which is at least partially surface modified by using at least one polyhydrogensiloxane for increasing the hydrophobicity and/or decreasing the moisture pick up, a process for preparing such a surface modified earth alkali carbonate-containing filler material, a fibre and/or filament and/or film and/or thread and/or breathable film comprising the surface modified earth alkali carbonate-containing filler material as well as an article comprising the surface modified earth alkali carbonate-containing filler material and/or the fibre and/or filament and/or film and/or thread and/or breathable film, preferably its use in polyester products.
Abstract:
The invention relates to polymer-bound artificial stones, to a method for the production thereof and to used cross-linkable compositions based on organosilicon compounds (A) having a proportion of filling material (B) of at least 85 wt.%, with the proviso that components (B) consist, at least in part, of coarse-grained filling materials having a grain size of between 0.2 mm - 10 mm.
Abstract:
A particulate material which is a particulate carrier material optionally comprising one or more hydroxyl groups to which a nitroso or nitroso precursor compound is bonded. A desirable particulate carrier material is a silicaceous material, for example, silica. Such materials are useful in bonding of elastomeric materials such as rubber and in vulcanisation.
Abstract:
Method of making a composite material by paste polymerization, by forming an emulsion of at least one polymerizable monomer in an aqueous material, polymerizing the emulsion to provide a latex containing particles of polymer, in which the polymer has a glass transition temperature above 65° C., adding nanoparticles to the latex, the nanoparticles having at least one dimension in the range 0.5 to 200 nm, and spray-drying the latex. The at least one polymerizable monomer contains vinyl chloride.
Abstract:
Borosilicate nanoparticles and method of making borosilicate nanoparticles. Advantages of the method include making the borosilicate nanoparticles at temperatures not greater than 200 C. The nanoparticles made are useful, for example, as fillers in coatings, adhesives, and composite articles.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hard coating composition, and, more particularly, to a hard coating composition used in forming a hard coating film exhibiting high hardness and excellent properties. The hard coating composition can be used to form a high-hardness hard coating film that is not easily curled.
