The thermotropic aromatic polyesters according to the invention which contain recurring units corresponding to the following formulae ##STR1## show improved resistance to chemicals, low melting points and, hence, good processibility in addition to the well-known favorable mechanical properties of liquid-crystal materials. The thermotropic aromatic polyesters are used for the production of moldings, filaments, fibers and films.

Green sulfur dyestuff is produced by reacting phenothiazine in sulfuric acid with an oxidizing agent, condensing the oxidized phenothiazine with p-nitrosophenol and thionating with sulfur and sodium sulfide the condensate in a bake or reflux process.

The invention relates to a process for preparing blends of high-performance polymers. The particular features are that at least two single-type polymers are treated with a solvent or a solvent mixture in which the polymers used are soluble, the polymers are thereby dissolved, and are then precipitated in a liquid medium, and recycled material is used for each of the polymeric constituents.

Thermoplastic polycarbonate/graft polymer moulding compositions containing A) 5 to 95 parts by weight of an aromatic polycarbonate, B) 1 to 50 parts by weight of at least one thermoplastic homopolymer, copolymer or terpolymer of styrene, .alpha.-methylstyrene, acrylonitrile, N-substituted maleimide or mixtures thereof, C) 1 to 50 parts by weight of at least one graft polymer of C.1) 5 to 90 parts by weight of styrene, .alpha.-methylstyrene, acrylonitrile, N-substituted maleimide or mixtures ther...

A device for continuous thermal treatment of multidimensional sheet structures consisting of fibers (18) made of polyacrylonitrile or substantially polyacrylonitrile comprises a furnace (23) with chamber-like sections, through which sections the sheet structure is continuously moved on a gas permeable transport track (21). In each of the chamber-like sections there is a gas stream flowing through the sheet structure perpendicular to the sheet structure. In every section, devices measure the para...

A multilayer polyolefin film comprising of at least three coextruded layers comprising an opaque base layer, an intermediate layer, and an outer peelable surface layer composed of two incompatible polyolefins, wherein the intermediate layer contains at least 80% by weight of a polyolefin having a lower melting point or lower glass transition temperature than the polyolefin forming the base layer.

The following procedures describe the use of cellular telephones and other analog or digital wireless communication devices to conduct transactions and activities. These procedures effectively allow such devices to function as an electronic wallet, a wireless PIN pad, and a contactless Smart Card.

Archival photographic silver images are obtained by the finishing bath's containing 10 to 60 mg of metal ions/liter of metals, the electrode potential of which in the electrochemical series is more positive than that of silver.

A method of producing ABS moulding compositions wherein a solution of polymers in group (A) solvents is gradually supplied to a polymerizing mixture of previously-formed soluble rubber, aromatic mono-alkenyl compounds, ethylenically unsaturated nitrites, optional other copolymerizable compounds and optionally a group (B) solvent or a mixture of group (A) and group (B) solvents, the gradual addition of the polymer solution to the polymerizing mixture being started before the beginning of phase in...

The invention relates to a photographic recording or reproducing device, preferably a camera, with a transportation device for the frame-by-frame transportation of a film along a film transportation path and with a film measuring device with an engagement member rotatable about an axis for engaging in perforation holes of a peripheral perforation of the film, the film transportation device being locked when the film reaches a position during its transportation which is provided for the recording...
