Abstract:
COPOLYMERS HAVING IMPROVED DYEING CHARACTERISTICS ARE PREPARED BY COPOLYMERIZING ACRYLONITRILE WITH THE A-METHYLENE GLUTARIC ACID, ALONE OR IN COMBINATION WITH THE MONOHYDROCARBYL ESTER THEREOF OR WITH THE ESTER ALONE IN SUCH AMOUNTS THAT THE RESULTING COPOLYMER COMPRISES 0.1-10 PERCENT BY WEIGHT OF SAID ACID OR ESTER, OR COMBINATION THEREOF, AND AT LEAST 35 PERCENT BY WEIGHT ACRYLONITRILE.
Abstract:
Objects composed of a metal-coated polyamide plastic, and a process for making same are disclosed in which a polyamide plastic substrate material is made by the hydrolytic polymerization of an omego lactam carried out at a temperature at least at the melting point of the polyamide material in the presence of one or more compounds soluble in the molten lactams, such as polyethers, alcohols of fatty acids having a boiling point above the lactam, organic sulphones, alkali metal halides, paraffins and silicone oils. After appropriate surface treatment of this plastic material, metal coating is deposited by precipitation and by further treatment as by electro deposition, to obtain the metal-coated polyamide plastic object.
Abstract:
COPOLYMER CONTAINING AT LEAST 35 WEIGHT PERCENT OF ACRYLONITRILE AND THE CYCLIC ANHYDRIDE OF A-METHYLENE GLUTARIC ACID, PREFERABLY RANGING FROM 0.1 TO 10 WEIGHT PERCENT, SAID COPOLYMER HAVING AN INTRINSIC VISCOSITY BETWEEN 0.1 AND 20; AND PROCESS FOR PREPARING SAME.
