Abstract:
A process for the condensation of imides and alcohols or amines to ester acyl lactams, ester amide acyl lactams or amide acyl lactams by reacting a polyol or polyamine in the liquid phase with an acyl lactam compound is disclosed.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an object and a process for the preparation of an object from an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer with high tensile strength and modulus, by converting:a) a solution of an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer with a weight-average molecular weight above 6.times.10.sup.4 kg/Kmole into a shaped, solvent-containing object in a suitable solvent or mixture of solvents;b) converting this object into a gel object with a homogeneous gelstructure by rapid cooling to below the gelation temperature;c) removing the solvent present in this gel object for the most partd) Drawing the gel object during or after solvent removal at a temperature above the glass transition temperature but below the melting temperature of the copolymer.
Abstract:
The invention relates to combinations of polymer filaments or yarns of high tensile strength, high modulus and low coefficients of friction and filaments or yarns of high coefficients of friction. Combinations of this type, which have been produced in particular by core spinning the filaments or yarns of low coefficient of friction with filaments or yarns of high coefficients of friction or by twisting the two filament or yarn components, are suitable in particular for producing bulletproof wovens, knits and nonwovens.
Abstract:
Process for contacting a particulate solid phase and a liquid in a column, which solid phase and liquid interact with each other, in which process the column is filled with packing material that is inert in respect of the solid phase and the liquid, in that the solid phase and the liquid are contacted countercurrently, and in that the liquid is subjected to pulsation.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a thermoplastic moulded printed circuit board consisting substantially of polyamide 4.6. Preferably use is made of a multilayer structure, of which at least one layer contains reinforcing filler material.
Abstract:
The adhesive strength of highly oriented, highmolecular polyolefin filaments for polar polymeric matrices is improved by subjecting the filaments to a corona treatment with a total irradiation dosage of ##EQU1## effected intermittently in several smaller dosages. The process is particularly suited for treating superstrong polyethylene fibers, and making reinforced materials while applying as matrix a polyester, polyamide or epoxy resin.
Abstract:
The invention relates to aromatic polyesters containing units with two carbonyl groups and having liquid crystalline properties. The aromatic polyesters are characterized in that the polyesters contain heterocyclic units with two carbonyl groups. Preferably these units are derived from furandicarboxylic acid. The aromatic polyesters show a considerable reduction in melting temperature, rendering the polyester more processable.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a polyamide composition with improved stability in contact with oil at elevated temperatures. The polyamide composition with superior stability characteristics has been obtained by the incorporation in the polyamide composition of a small amount of an alkaline inorganic material. Preferably the polyamide is nylon 4.6.
Abstract:
A multi-layer polyamide moulded articles having, inter alia, improving mechanical properties, one layer of which is reinforced with filler and covered at least on one side with a non-reinforced polyamide layer and of which the polyamide substantially consists of nylon 4,6 and the filler is non-fibrous.
