PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a filter aid used for filtering an aqueous liquid, having a good filtering action, and suited for precoat filtration. SOLUTION: A method for filtering an aqueous liquid is provided. The method is one comprising filtering the liquid in the presence of a filter aid, wherein the filter aid contains at least one water-insoluble, substantially nonswellable, particulate polymer of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer, and the polymer contains, in the form of a copolymer, at least 20 wt.%, based on the entire monomer weight, 3-6C α,β-monoethylenically unsaturated monocarboxylic acid.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of depositing nanowires on the surface of a substrate, comprising the steps of: - contacting defined regions of the substrate with at least one compound (C1) capable of binding to the surface of the substrate and of binding the nanowires to provide a pattern of binding sites on the surface of the substrate and/or contacting defined regions of the substrate with at least one compound (C2) capable of binding to the surface of the substrate and preventing the binding of nanowires to provide a pattern of non-binding sites on the surface of the substrate, and - contacting the surface of the substrate with a suspension of nanowires in a liquid medium to enable at least a portion of the applied nanowires to bind to at least a portion of the surface of the substrate covered with (C1) and/or not covered with (C2).
Abstract:
The invention relates to insoluble, highly cross-linked, weakly swelling popcorn polymers containing styrene-4-sulfonate, methods for the production and use thereof as adsorbents, ion exchangers, support materials, filter aids, dye-transmission inhibitors for detergents or additives in cosmetic, dermatological or pharmaceutical formulations as tablet dispersing agents. Said popcorn polymers containing styrene-4-sufonate are more particularly used for filtering liquids, especially beer, and as tablet dispersing agents.
