Abstract:
The invention relates to thermoplastic molding compounds of 70 to 99.5% by weight thermoplastic polyamides and 30 to 0.5% by weight hydrogenated nitrile rubber and 0 to 29.5% by weight thermoplastic resin components and, optionally, standard additives in typical quantities. These thermoplastic molding compounds show high strength values, very good moldability and, above all, high weathering resistance.
Abstract:
The invention relates to thermoplastic polyamide moulding compositions with improved toughness at low temperatures consisting of at least 60% by weight of polyamide and from 3 to 35% by weight of graft rubbers from the group comprising diene rubbers and acrylate rubbers, which are produced in that a mixture of the two components is produced in the presence of from 0.01 to 5% by weight of a radical forming agent and the moulding compositions are then heated below the polyamide melting point as far as possible in the absence of oxygen.
Abstract:
Block copolyamides consisting of from 1 to 80% by weight of hydrogenated telechelic diene polymers having M.sub.n molecular weight of from 400 to 6000 and from 99 to 20% by weight of polyamides or polyamide-forming components.
Abstract:
Preparation of a polyarylene sulphide by polycondensing a substituted p-dihalogenobenzene and optionally a polyhalogeno aromatic compound having at least three halo substituents with an alkali metal sulphide in a polar solvent in the presence of a catalytic amount of a di-alkali metal salt of a phosphonic acid.
Abstract:
A homogeneous, thermoplastic mixture comprising (A) from 85 to 99.5% by weight of isotactic polypropylene; and (B) from 15 to 0.5% by weight of a liquid, saturated diorganopolysiloxane having a viscosity of from 30,000 to 80,000 cSt at 20.degree. C.The elastic properties of moulded articles produced from the polypropylene/diorganopolysiloxane mixtures of the present invention are substantially improved by the addition of small quantities of diorganopolysiloxane while their dimensional stability under heat and their rigidity are largely preserved.

Abstract:
A method for making a light-collector of a transparent plastic and a fluorescent dye, wherein the monomers forming transparent plastics are mass-prepolymerized in the presence of radical catalysts and the fluorescent dye is added before, during or at the end of prepolymerization, and then polymerizing the mixture to completion by adding another catalyst, also at pressures of from 2 to 20 bars and at temperatures of from 50.degree. to 160.degree. C., and the use of the light-collector thus produced in combination with photovoltaic elements, preferably based on Ga/As or Si.
Abstract:
A process for the production of modified polypropylene particles by polymerizing vinyl monomers in aqueous suspension wherein (a) an aqueous suspension is prepared which, based on 100 to 2000 parts by weight of water, contains 100 parts by weight of polypropylene particles, 4 to 30 parts by weight of a polar vinyl monomer and based on 100 parts by weight of the monomer, 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of a radical chain polymerization initiator which has a half life of at least 2 h at a temperature of 80.degree. to 135.degree. C. and 10 to 1200 parts by weight of an organic solvent which is capable of swelling polypropylene, of which the boiling point at 760 Torr is at least 100.degree. C. and which is miscible with the monomers in any proportion; (b) the aqueous suspension is heated without decomposition of the initiator, the polypropylene being swollen and the monomer penetrating into the polypropylene, after which (c) the aqueous suspension is kept at temperatures of .gtoreq.85.degree. C. until polymerization of the monomer has ceased. The modified polypropylene is used to improve the mechanical properties of unmodified, optionally glass-fibre-reinforced polypropylene.
