Abstract:
The invention concerns a process for preparing aqueous aminoplastic resins which are suitable as binders for producing derived timber products. The process is characterized in that: a) 1 mole melamine; b) a concentrated aqueous solution of 0.5 to 5 moles urea and 3 to 6 moles formaldehyde per mole of urea, in which urea and formaldehyde can also be present in the form of their reaction products, c) 0.01 to 0.5 moles phenol or a phenol derivative which can be polycondensed, d) 0 to 9 moles formaldehyde, and e) 0 to 1 mole of a further compound which can be polycondensed are reacted with one another at 50 to 100 °C and a pH of 7.5 to 10.0 until the solution attains a viscosity of 10 to 1500 mPa.s, after which this solution is left to cool, and f) is mixed with 0.55 to 0.75 moles urea per mole of the total amount of urea used as components (b) and (f).
Abstract:
Aqueous aminoplast resins with a solids content of 50 to 75 wt % and a viscosity, related to a solids content of 67 wt %, of 150 to 400 mPa.s (measured at 20 °C and a shear gradient of 500 s-1) containing per mol melamine (component a) 0.5 to 13 mol urea (component b), 2 to 20 mol formaldehyde (component c), 0 to 1 mol phenol and/or a condensable phenol derivative (component d), 0 to 1 mol of an alkaline sulphite and/or alkaline hydrogen sulphite (component e) and 0 to 1 mol of a further condensable compound (component f), in which the ratio of the sum of the mol quantities of the (-NH¿2?) groups originally present in components (a) and (c) to that of component (c) is 0.5:1 to 2:1.
Abstract:
Mixtures of: (A) an aqueous condensation product comprising (a) 1 mol melamine and (b) 3 to 11 mol formaldehyde, and (B) a total urea quantity of 0.8 to 13 mol, in which up to 25 % of this total quantity may be contained as component (c) in the resin (A). These mixtures are suitable as adhesive resins.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to starch which is modified with at least one cationic polymer (P), and a method for producing same which is characterized in that: a) an anionically modified starch (A) is reacted with the cationic polymer (P); or that (b) a native starch (B) or a non-anionically modified starch (C) is reacted with the cationic polymer (P) in the presence of an anionic modifier (M). The invention also relates to the use of said polymer-modified starches.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for eliminating formamide from polymerizates containing N-vinyl formamide units by treating polymerizates which contain formamide and which comprise 1 to 2 molar equivalents of an acid or of a base with regard to 1 molar equivalent of formamide under reaction conditions in which the N-vinyl formamide units are virtually unhydrolyzed in the polymerizate.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a mixture comprising an amino resin and a polymer of which at least 80 weight % consists of C2 to C3 alkylene oxide groups.
Abstract:
A monomer composition contains (A) monomers which contain vinyl groups and in which a heteroatom from the group of halogens, nitrogen, oxygen, sulphur or silicium is associated to the vinyl group; and (B) a compound or a mixture of compounds of general formula (II), in which R stands for methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, secondary butyl, tertiary butyl or trimethylsilyl.
Abstract:
Proposed is the use, as agents for increasing the dry strength of paper, card and cardboard, of partially hydrolysed polymers of N-vinyl carboxylic acid amides obtained by the homopolymerization of N-vinyl carboxylic acid amides of the formula (I) in which R?1 and R2¿ are H or C¿1?-C6 alkyl and by splitting off 0.5 to 95 mole % of the groups of the formula (II) in which R?1¿ is H or C¿1?-C6 alkyl.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a starch which is modified with at least one cationic polymer and a method for its production, which is characterized in that dry, pourable starch is laid out and the cationic polymer is applied over it without causing the starch particles to stick. The invention further relates to the use of said polymer-modified starches.
