Abstract:
The invention relates to a porous polymeric monolith based on a polymerised high internal phase emulsion (polyHIPE) which is hypercrosslinked, and to the preparation and use thereof, preferably as gas storage material.
Abstract:
The invention relates to monolithic materials which consist of porous, preferably highly porous, carbon and are suitable, inter alia, for the storage of gases, such as, for example, hydrogen and methane, and for absorptive and adsorptive gas purification.
Abstract:
The invention relates to zinc oxide nanoparticles having an average particle size, determined by particle correlation spectroscopy (PCS), in the range from 3 to 20 nm whose particle surface has been modified by means of at least one copolymer comprising at least one monomer containing hydrophobic radicals and at least one monomer containing hydrophilic radicals, dispersed in an organic solvent, characterised in that they are obtainable by a process in which in a step a) one or more precursors of the nanoparticles are converted into the nanoparticles in an alcohol, in a step b) the growth of the nanoparticles is terminated by addition of at least one copolymer comprising at least one monomer containing hydrophobic radicals and at least one monomer containing hydrophilic radicals when the absorption edge in the UV/VIS spectrum of the reaction solution has reached the desired value, and optionally in step c) the alcohol from step a) is removed and replaced by another organic solvent, to isolated particles, and to the use thereof for UV protection in polymers.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to concentrated inorganic/organic sols that are readily diluted with water to form coating agents for textile materials. Further, the use of the aqueous formulations, especially for the washproof coating of a textile material.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of nanoscale zinc oxide, prepared by a sol-gel process, as curing catalyst, in particular for liquid coatings.
Abstract:
The invention relates to nanoparticles, in particular surface-modified nanoparticles, having an average particle size, determined by means of particle correlation spectroscopy (PCS) or transmission electron microscope, in the range from 3 to 50 nm, dispersed in an organic solvent, characterised in that they are obtainable by a process in which one or more precursors of the nanoparticles are reacted with a compound M3−x[O3−xSiR1+x] in an organic solvent to give the nanoparticles, where x stands for an integer selected from 0, 1 or 2, M stands for H, Li, Na or K, and all R each, independently of one another, stand for a branched or unbranched, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical having 1 to 28 C atoms, in which one or more C atoms may be replaced by O, and to the use thereof for UV protection in polymers.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of an aqueous dispersion comprising at least one polymer and/or oligomer and inorganic surface-modified particles, where the polymer and/or oligomer sheathes the inorganic particles having a modified surface, to dispersions prepared using the process, and to the use thereof in paint or coating systems and as adhesives or sealants.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel process for the preparation of compact, spherical mixed oxide powders having an average particle size of
Abstract:
The invention relates to polymer-modified nanoparticles which are suitable as UV stabilisers in polymers, characterised in that they are obtainable by a process in which, in a step a), an inverse emulsion comprising one or more water-soluble precursors of the nanoparticles or a melt is prepared with the aid of a random copolymer of at least one monomer containing hydrophobic radicals and at least one monomer containing hydrophilic radicals, and, in a step b), particles are produced, and to the use thereof for UV protection in polymers.
Abstract:
Bone cements containing polyacrylates or polymethacrylates and an X-ray contrast medium can be prepared by functionalizing the X-ray contrast medium with (meth)acrylate groups prior to being coating with melamine-formaldehyde resin and subsequent polymerization. The invention resultant bone cement can be used for anchoring prosthesis components in bone, for stiffening bone, as bone screw fixing plug and as implants for anchoring screws.
