Abstract:
The invention relates to hydrogels having a low freezing point. Said hydrogels contain at least one water-absorbing polymer, at least one non-aqueous solvent, and water. The invention also relates to a method for the production of said hydrogels, and to the use of the same in cooling elements.
Abstract:
The invention relates to water-based lacquers containing highly functional, highly branched or hyperbranched polycarbonates based on dialkyl carbonates or diaryl carbonates or phosgene, diphosgene or triphosgene and aliphatic, aliphatic/aromatic or aromatic diols or polyols.
Abstract:
The invention provides a hydrogel, having a floating behaviour, wherein 40 to 90% of a solution and/or suspension to be thickened is thickened from the fluid surface and the rest of said solution and/or suspension to be thickened is thickened from the container bottom. Said invention also relates to a method for producing the hydrogel and the use thereof for absorbing blood and/or body fluids, in particular, in hygienic articles, or for thickening aqueous solutions and/or suspensions, in particular, for thickening medical waste.
Abstract:
The invention relates to nanoparticulate formulations containing at least one active substance or substance with a specific action and at least one statistical radical copolymer. The copolymers are composed of monomers that carry sulphonic acid groups and additional olefinically unsaturated compounds. The formulations can be dispersed in nanoparticulate form in an aqueous medium. The invention also relates to methods for producing the solid and liquid formulations and to the use of the latter.
Abstract:
Process for the preparation of homopolymers or copolymers by homopolymerization or copolymerization of free-radically polymerizable water-soluble and/or water-dispersible monomers, optionally with further comonomers and optionally with at least one crosslinker, in an inverse emulsion polymerization in the presence of at least one redox initiator pair comprising an oxidizing agent and a reducing agent, where the reducing agent is 2-hydroxy-2-sulfinatoacetic acid and/or salt thereof; homopolymers or copolymers preparable by the process according to the invention, water-in-oil emulsions which comprise at least one homopolymer or copolymer according to the invention, solid compositions which comprise at least one homopolymer or copolymer according to the invention, the use of 2-hydroxy-2-sulfinatoacetic acid and/or salt thereof as reducing agent in a process for the preparation of homopolymers or copolymers; the use of the water-in-oil emulsion comprising at least one homopolymer or copolymer according to the invention for the thickening of aqueous solutions, and the use of 2-hydroxy-2-sulfinatoacetic acid and/or salt thereof as reducing component of a redox initiator pair comprising an oxidizing agent and a reducing agent for avoiding induction times during inverse emulsion polymerization.
Abstract:
A process for producing an absorbent composite by contacting a solid supporting material with an emulsion comprising at least one polymeric material and at least one crosslinker and curing the mixture on the supporting material, the absorbent composites and also their use in sealing materials for road, tunnel and water engineering and also for excavations, high water protection and roof-sealing systems.
Abstract:
New active agent formulations contain active agent(s) (A); random radical copolymer(s) (B), derived from sulfoalkyl (meth)acrylate or N-sulfoalkyl-(meth)acrylamide monomer(s) (I) (and/or their salts), (meth)acrylate ester or N-substituted (meth)acrylamide monomer(s) (II) and optionally further monomers; and optionally further additives (C). New active agent formulations contain active agent(s) (A); random radical copolymer(s) (B), derived from olefinically unsaturated sulfonic acid(s) of formula (I) (and/or their salts), monomer(s) of formula H 2C=C(R 4>)-CO-YR 6> (II) and optionally further monomers; and optionally further additives (C). n : 0-10; X, Y : O or NR 5>; R 1>, R 4>H or Me; R 2>, R 3>H or 1-6C alkyl; R 5>, R 6>H, alkyl, aryl, alkylaryl, alkoxyalkyl, aryloxyalkyl, alkoxyaryl, hydroxyalkyl, (di)alkylaminoalkyl, (di)arylaminoalkyl, alkylarylaminoalkyl or alkylarylaminoaryl (where aryl groups are optionally substituted). Independent claims are included for: (1) the preparation of aqueous dispersions, by contacting the formulations with aqueous systems (optionally in presence of additives) and dispersion conventionally; (2) the preparation of the formulations, by dissolving (A) - (C) and optionally further additives in an organic solvent (or dissolving the components separately in organic solvents then mixing the solutions), then conventionally removing the solvent; and (3) an alternative preparation of the formulations, by forming an aqueous solution of (B); dissolving (A), (C) (if present) and optionally further additives in water-miscible organic solvent(s); mixing the solutions; applying energy to form a dispersion; and conventionally removing the solvent.
