Abstract:
A compound consisting of a linear saturated C8-C24 hydrocarbon-based chain bearing at each end a nitrogen-containing functional group, other than —NH2, is used for the storage of thermal energy.A process for the storage and optionally for the release of thermal energy comprises the contacting of a wall to be cooled with a first heat transfer fluid then of said first heat transfer fluid with a material comprising said compound and optionally the contacting of said material with a second heat transfer fluid then of said second heat transfer fluid with a wall to be heated.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for preparing 1-(2-aminoethyl)imidazolidin-2-one or the thiocarbonyl thereof, and also to the product that can be obtained according to this method, and which has a purity of at least 98%, and to the uses thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a bituminous composition comprising at least one bitumen and at least one polycondensate capable of forming a supramolecular assembly comprising one or more associative group(s). The present invention also relates to the use of such bituminous composition for the preparation of asphalt mixtures useful for the coating of rolling surfaces, for the preparation of water-proofing coatings, and the for the preparation of adhesive formulations.

Abstract:
The invention concerns a composition comprising: (1) an asphaltene-free bituminous binder mixture, containing at least a plasticizing agent based on an aliphatic hydrocarbon compound, at least a structuring agent based on a cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon polymer and optionally a first polymer; (2) a coloured pigment; and (3) a second polymer selected among polyolefins, natural and synthetic rubbers and vinyl ethylene acetate copolymer.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a supramolecular polymer obtained from the reaction of (i) an amine bearing a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group: imidazolidone, trimethyleneurea or triazine, which is capable of associating by means of hydrogen bonds and (ii) at least one fatty acid monomer comprising at least one reactive function, a dimer of identical or different fatty acids and/or a trimer of identical or different fatty acids, or a derivative of said fatty acid(s) which is selected from a fatty acid ester, and a fatty acid chloride.

Abstract:
A compound (Ia) or (Ib) is prepared by reacting, in a polar aprotic solvent, a compound (III) with a salt of a carboxylic or dicarboxylic acid (IIa) or (IIb). The reaction may be carried out under pressure, but also at normal atmospheric pressure or in the region of normal atmospheric pressure (especially between 0.10 bar and 2 bars). The product (Ia) or (Ib) formed is, in this latter case, recovered continuously as it is formed. ##STR1## R.sup.1, R.sup.2 =optionally substituted saturated or unsaturated acyclic or cyclic hydrocarbon radicals; R.sup.3 =C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 perhaloalkyl; 0
