Abstract:
A process for working up particulate polyolefins obtained by polymerization carried out with the aid of Ziegler/Natta catalysts. The process of the invention is characterized by a continuous, conventional operation (1) comprising the following integrated sub-stages: (1.1) introducing particulate polyolefin to a melting zone, (1.2) passing the molten polyolefin to a degassing zone, (1.3) transferring the degassed polyolefin to a discharge zone, and (1.4) finally extruding and granulating the resulting polyolefin; and by an important, additional and new feature (2) comprising the addition of an alkenoxide, water and optionally nitrogen to the polyolefin immediately before it passes to the melting zone or while it is in the melting zone. This process makes it possible to produce granular polyolefins of low halogen content in a particularly simple manner.

THE POLYMER OBTAINES IS PARTICULARLY EASY TO PROCESS.
Abstract:
A PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF NONPLANE BUILDING COMPONENTS WHICH COMPRISE A RELATIVELY THICK INNER PLY OF THE THERMOPLASTIC AND RELATIVELY THIN OUTER PLIES OF METAL. THE BUILDING COMPONENTS ARE PREPARED BY CONTINUOUSLY PREPARING A BOARD FROM A POLYETHYLENE BY MEANS OF A SCREW EXTRUDER AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURE, COVERING THE BOARD THUS OBTAINED ON BOTH SIDES FIRST WITH A FILM OF A SPECIAL TERPOLYMER AND THEN WITH A METAL SHEET AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURE, FORMING A SANDWICH ASSEMBLY FROM THE WHOLE UNDER THE PRESSURE OF ROLLERS AND THEN BRINGING THE PLANE BOARD INTO THE DESIRED NONPLANE SHAPE AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURE USING EXTERNAL FORCES.
Abstract:
A PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF SANDWICH CONSTRUCTIONS CONSISTING OF (A) AN INNER PLY OF POLYETHYLENE; (B) ADHESION-PROMOTING INTERLAYERS APPLIED TO BOTH SIDES OF THE INNER PLY AND (C) OUTER PLIES OF METAL APPLIED TO THE TWO INTERLAYERS. IT IS A CHARACTERISTIC FEATURE OF THE INVENTION THAT SHEETING IS PREPARED CONTINUOUSLY FROM A SPECIAL POLYETHYLENE BY MEANS OF A SCREW EXTRUDER AT A SPECIFIC TEMPERATURE OF THE MATERIAL, THIS SHEETING IS COVERED ON BOTH SIDES WITH A FILM OF A SPECIAL TERPOLYMER BY MEANS OF A PAIR OF ROLLERS, THE RESULTANT LAMINATE IS THEN COVERED CONTINUOUSLY BY MEANS OF A PAIR OF ROLLERS AT A SPECIFIC TEMPERATURE OF THE MATERIAL WITH METAL SHEETING HAVING A SPECIFIC TEMPERATURE AND THE WHOLE IS COMBINED TO FORM A SANDWICH PANEL UNDER A SPECIFIC ROLLER PRESSURE. THE PROCCESS GIVE SANDWICH CONSTRUCTIONS HAVING PARTICULARLY GOOD CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES IN A SIMPLE WAY.
Abstract:
A process for bonding or laminating materials by means of terpolymers of ethylene, an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid and an ester of an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid. It is a characteristic of the process that the terpolymers are used with an addition of an organic peroxide having the general formula R1-O-O-R2 or R1-O-O-X-O-O-R2 in which R1 and R2 denote hydrogen atoms or alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, alkaryl or acyl radicals and X denotes an aliphatic, aromatic, aromatic-aliphatic or aliphatic-aromatic radical.
Abstract:
A process for the production of sandwich constructions consisting of (a) an inner ply of polyethylene; (b) adhesionpromoting interlayers applied to both sides of the inner ply and (c) outer plies of metal applied to the two interlayers. It is a characteristic feature of the invention that sheeting is prepared continuously from a special polyethylene by means of a screw extruder at a specific temperature of the material, this sheeting is covered on both sides with a film of a special polymer by means of a pair of rollers, the resultant laminate is then covered continuously by means of a pair of rollers at a specific temperature of the material with metal sheeting having a specific temperature and the whole is combined to form a sandwich panel under a specific roller pressure. The process gives sandwich constructions having particularly good chemical and physical properties in a simple way.
Abstract:
A process for the production of plane three-ply materials for plane building components, which materials consist of a relatively thick inner ply of a thermoplastic and relatively thin outer plies of another thermoplastic. The process comprises preparing a board of polyethylene by means of a screw extruder at elevated temperature and covering the board on both sides with a film of a terpolymer at elevated temperature by means of a pair of rollers to form a sandwich assembly. The terpolymer must have a specific chemical composition; it is prepared from (1) a predominant amount of ethylene, (2) a relatively low amount of an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid and (3) a relatively low amount of an ester of an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid.
Abstract:
A process for the production of plane building components, comprising relatively thick inner ply of a thermoplastic and relatively thin outer plies of metal. In the process a board is prepared continuously from a polyethylene by means of an extruder at elevated temperature, the board thus obtained is continuously covered on each side first with a film of an ethylene polymer containing carboxyl groups by means of at least one pair of rollers and then with metal sheeting, the whole being made into a sandwich assembly under roller pressure and the plane building component formed being cooled to ambient temperature.
