Abstract:
Solid phase polycondensation of thermoplastic polyester melt precondensate is effected at a temperature from 50.degree. to 5.degree.C below the melting point of the precondensate, at a vacuum below 1 torr and in contact with a streaming inert gas.
Abstract:
A solid lubricant additive for resin-bound friction lining mixtures contains manganous sulphide (MnS). The additive further optionally contains other sulphides, carbon carriers such as graphite and coke, phosphates and/or oxides. The additive results in the adjustment of the coefficient of friction and wear in friction lining materials. The additive may be advantageously employed in asbestos-free and lead-free friction lining mixtures in heavy-duty friction parts as used in brakes, clutches, synchromesh gears.
Abstract:
The invention relates to glass-reinforced polyester moulding compounds which contain a polyester that is at least 90 mol. % a polyester of 1,4-butanediol and trans-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid or polyester forming derivatives thereof. The content of glass fibres is preferably 2 to 60% by weight, based on the moulding compound. The moulding compounds of the invention have improved tracking resistance.
Abstract:
Dicarboxylic acids containing at least two triazine rings are very suitable for producing thermoplastic polyesters having high glass transition temperatures and high dimensional stability under heat, and at the same time good processing characteristics.
Abstract:
Linear thermoplastic polyesters obtained from (a) dicarboxylic acids which contain NH groups, (b) if desired, terephthalic acid and/or isophthalic acid, (c) if desired, diols containing aliphatic diol groups and (d) .beta.-hydroxyalkylated bisphenols are materials from which it is possible to produce shaped articles which have good properties, for example good resistance to stress cracking and stability to thermooxidative degradation, and also a low absorption of water.
Abstract:
Copolyesters which are based in poly-1,4-butylene therephthalate and contain 2,5-15 mol %, relative to the polyester, of branched aliphatic dicarboxylic acids with 7-30 C-atoms are outstandingly suitable for the manufacture of mouldings having improved toughness properties.
Abstract:
Thermoplastic polyesters which are more stable to heat and have good properties in use and during processing are obtained with dicarboxylic acids containing N,N-heterocyclic rings when the alkylene group which bonds the carboxyl groups to the N atoms contains at least 3 C atoms.
Abstract:
Thermoplastic polyesters based on aromatic dicarboxylic acids and aromatic diols possess, with high glass transition temperatures and good processing characteristics, improved toughness properties when N,N-heterocyclic diols are concomitantly incorporated by condensation into the polyester.
Abstract:
Thermoplastic polyesters based on aromatic diols are flexible, possess good working properties and have a high glass transition temperature when they contain dicarboxylic acids having N,N-heterocyclic rings.
Abstract:
Linear thermoplastic polyesters based on imidazolidine-4,5-dione-dicarboxylic acids are useful moulding compounds with high glass transition temperatures and good working properties.
