摘要:
loccular compositions comprising ultrafine inorganic particles having maximum particle dimensions of from 0.5 to 3000 (preferably 2 to 1500) nm combined with a size-stabiliser which is a lyophobic substance with lyophilic activity on its surface and also comprising a polyelectrolyte flocculating agent attached to the combination. The size-stabiliser protects the ultrafine particles against agglomeration during formation of the flocculates and the mixing of flocculates into various materials such as plastics, inks, paint or refractory materials. Also a method for making the flocculates from colloidal dispersions of particles, size-stabilisers and flocculating agents. The flocculates are particularly useful with particles of metals of the coinage and transition groups for making transparent colouring agents. Also materials containing the ultrafine particles.
摘要:
A heat-resistant pigment can be produced by forming a dense and uniform coating on the surface of the pigment by contacting said pigment with a metal alkoxide diluted with a water-miscible or semi-water-miscible solvent.

Hydrophilic inorganic materials are provided with a hydrophobic surface by treatment with a metal glycolate compound having the formula: wherein: Me is Sn, Ti, Zr or Al; when Me is Sn, Ti or Zr, m is 1, and when Me is Al, m is 0; R is alkyl having from about eight to about fifty carbon atoms; X, and X 2 are independently selected from the group consisting of -R,. -OR,, -OCOR 1 , -SR,, -S(CH 2 ) n COOR 1 , X 1 and X 2 can be combined to form R 1 is selected from the group consisting of alkyl having from one to about eighteen carbon atoms; alkenyl having from three to about eighteen carbon atoms; cycloalkyl having from five to about eight carbon atoms; and aryl and alkaryl having from six to about eighteen carbon atoms; R 2 is alkylene having from one to about fifty carbon atoms; R 3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl having from one to about eighteen carbon atoms; alkenyl having from three to about eighteen carbon atoms; cycloalkyl having from five to about eight carbon atoms; and aryl and alkaryl having from six to about eighteen carbon atoms; r is 0 or 1.
