The invention relates to new compositions having good binder, wetting, and dispersing properties for virtually foam-free aqueous and also solventborne and solvent-free pigment preparations.

The present invention relates to a container (1) for a liquid or viscous product, comprising a sub

The invention relates to a coating agent for spray coating an object with at least one alkylsilane used for creating a hydrophobic and/or oleophobic coating and additives used for facilitating application. The alkylsilane is provided at a concentration of less than 10 percent while the additives comprise a solvent and/or a diluted solvent which is selected at a low viscosity such that the coating agent can be sprayed in droplets having an average diameter of less than 100 µm, preferably less than 50 µm.

The machine for sealing blister packs or tubs of dairy product has a heated sealing head (5) mounted on bolts (8) which are biased towards the head by springs (9) with a bearing plate (7) fitted over them. A tilting adjuster plate (6) allows the distance between the bearing plate and sealing head to be varied.

A method of manufacture of a bottle which may be closed by a push-on closure, apparatus for manufacturing the same, a bottle and a closure for the bottle. A bottle is manufactured in a multi-component assembly. The bottle preform (not shown) is made by an injection molding technique, having detents on its upwardly and outwardly facing surfaces. It is then transferred to a blow mould where it is first heated, and then shaped by inserting a blow pin through the neck of the preform to stretch it in its longitudinal axis. During this operation, the top surface of the preform is bent down, such that the detent formed on the upwardly facing surface of the preform now extends laterally into the volume of the preform. The stretched preform is then blown to take the shape of the blow mould, forming the bottle. A closure is formed by injection moulding, and is held on the bottle by the laterally extending detents.

The invention provides a liquid coating composition curable at ambient temperature comprising an acetoacetate groups-containing addition polymer having a number average molecular weight of 1000-100 000, a glass transition temperature of 250°-370°K, a hydroxyl number of 0-200 and a content of acetoacetate groups of 3,5-45% by weight, the acetoacetate groups being present as ester of hydroxyalkyl acrylate, hydroxyalkyl methacrylate or allyl alcohol structural units, and a polyamine having primary and/or secondary amino groups and blocked with an aldehyde or ketone. A process for coating a substrate with such composition is also provided.

There is disclosed a composition for forming a protective coating upon a substrate. The composition has been found particularly useful for forming a protective coating upon components of automotive vehicles, such as a bedliner for a pick-up truck. The composition may include, without limitation, an isocyanate component and an amine component and optionally includes one or more of a catalyst, stabilizer, pigment, fire retardant or other additives.

Single phase, water based, electron beam curable compositions and a method of preparing coatings and printing inks from same.

A composition based on water and/or organic solvents and their use as a finish on flat materials, comprising,
