Abstract:
The present invention pertains to a method for continuous cross-linking water-soluble condensates and additives containing amino groups, involving at least bifunctional cross-linking reagents in an aqueous solution or organic solvents in water at a temperature of 20 DEG C to 180 DEG C, resulting in cross-linked reaction products which are water-soluble and characterized, for 20 wt. % of an aqueous solution at a temperature of 20 DEG C, by a viscosity of 50 to 2000 mPas. A mixture of water-soluble condensates and additives containing amino groups and cross-linking reagents, or both reaction partners, are continuously fed into a tubular reactor, inside which they circulate under laminal flow (Reynolds number: 0,005 - 500), then continuously polycondensated in a cylindrical stirrer, whereby the reagents involved in the reaction are let, from one side of a double coaxial cylinder, into the intermediate space between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder for the purposes of polycondensation. At least one cylinder of the double coaxial cylinder is caused to rotate, with an angular speed relative to the other cylinder, thereby producing Taylor swirls (Taylor number: 20 to 2000) in the reaction mixture. Thereafter, the reaction mixture is isolated at the end of the reactor cycle.
Abstract:
The invention concerns the use of water-soluble or water-dispersible cross-linked nitrogenated compounds obtained by crosslinking (a) compounds containing at least three NH groups with (b) at least bifunctional crosslinking agents which react with NH groups, in washing and cleaning agents, in particular as soil-release agents. Preferably, the compounds (a) are selected from the group comprising oligo- and polyamines, polyalkylene polyamines, polyamidoamines, polyamidoamines grafted with (poly)ethyleneimine and mixtures thereof.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A process is disclosed for producing finely divided, water-insoluble aziridine polymers by polymerisation of aziridines, preferably ethylene imine, in the presence of cross-linking agents which contain at least two functional groups in at least one ether. Also disclosed are modified, water-insoluble aziridine polymers obtained by reacting finely divided, water-insoluble, cross-linked aziridine polymers in an aqueous medium with carbon bisulphide or formaldehyde and a nucleophilic agent from the group of the alkaline metal cyanides, primary amines, secondary amines, alkaline metal sulphites and alkaline metal phosphites. The invention also relates to the use of the modified and non-modified, finely divided, water-insoluble polymers for immobilising active substances, as absorbing agent for aldehydes, ketones and acids and for removing heavy metal ions from waste water.
Abstract:
The disclosure concerns a method of producing water-soluble condensates and addition products containing amino groups and possessing enhanced de-watering and retention properties in paper production. Between 5 and 95 wt % of the condensates or addition products are removed as a permeate from solutions of water-soluble condensates or addition products containing amino groups by ultrafiltration through membranes and the condensates or addition products containing amino groups are if necessary isolated more efficiently from the retentate. The high-molecular polymer components contained in the residue are used as retention, de-watering and fixing agents in paper production, as promotors in gluing paper with alkyl diketenes, as flocculents for sewage sludges, as adhesives in the production of composite films, as additives to hair and skin conditioners and as an agent for immobilising anionic active substances.
