Abstract:
Starch-based dextrin adhesive additives and methods of preparation are described. Adhesives containing the additive exhibit antimicrobial properties and increased water solubility. The additive contains at least one sugar unit, at least one polyphenol side chain, and at least one Frechet-type poly(aryl ether)dendron.
Abstract:
A process for preparing hyperbranched polymers from AB monomers and C monomers Using a self-constructing approach is disclosed along with the hyperbranched polymers of a living-like character produced by such process.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to hyperbranched polyaspartate esters containing repeating structural units corresponding to the formula I and/or II ##STR1## The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of these hyperbranched polyaspartate esters by self condensing, via a transesterification reaction, at least a portion of the hydroxy and ester groups of the hydroxy aspartates corresponding to the above formula at a temperature of 60.degree. to 240.degree. C. to form hyperbranched polyaspartate esters and eliminating alcohols having the formula R.sub.1 --OH and/or R.sub.2 --OH.
Abstract:
A dendritic or hyperbranched polymer comprising a plurality of branches, wherein at least one of the branches comprises at least one catechol moiety that is oxidisible to a semiquinone moiety and/or a quinone moiety.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a multilayer structure comprising at least one layer of supramolecular material and one layer of rigid material, to a method for producing such a structure by casting a composition comprising a precursor of the supramolecular material, and to the uses of the structures produced, especially for applications where a dampening of impacts, vibrations and/or sound waves is desired, for example for producing locomotion vehicles such as automotive, rail, nautical, aeronautical or aerospace vehicles, or for the construction industry.
Abstract:
An adhesive composition including an etchant for a hard tissue surface, at least one multifunctional crosslinkable (meth)acrylate monomer with a functionality greater than 4, and water. The adhesive composition is a water-in-oil emulsion.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to mixtures, containing A) reaction products from isocyanates and NCO-reactive silanes and B) carbosilane dendrimers, a process for preparing powder coatings from the mixtures and their use.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a dendritic macromolecule of the polyester type comprising a central initiator molecule or initiator polymer having one or more reactive hydroxyl groups (A). The groups (A) are under formation of an initial tree structure bonded to reactive carboxyl groups (B) of a monomeric chain extender having the two reactive groups (A) and (B). The tree structure is optionally extended and further branched from the initiator molecule or initiator polymer by addition of further molecules of a monomeric chain extender by means of bonding between the reactive groups (A) and (B) thereof and is thereafter optionally further extended by reaction with a chain stopper. The invention also comprises a process for preparation of the dendritic macromolecule.
