The present invention relates to a process for trash removal or pitch control in the paper manufacture, in which process as agent for the trash removal or pitch control cationic groups containing polymers of 50 to 100%-wt. quaternized dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide or dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide and 0 to 50%-wt acrylamide, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, acrylamidomethylpropanesulfonic acid, are used, which polymers have an intrinsic viscosity of smaller than 150 ml/g. The trash removal or pitch control agent is added to the pulp flow and/or the circuit water in amounts of up to 1%-wt., relative to the dry weight of the paper manufactured.

The present invention relates to a process to improve the organoleptic behavior and the physical characteristics of leather by the use of aqueous solutions of copolymers of 90 to 20%-wt acrylic acid or methyacrylic acid, as well as 10 to 80%-wt of a monomer of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is hydrogen or methyl; R.sub.2 and R.sub.3, which are equal or different, are methyl or ethyl; x stands for an optionally branched alkylene radical with 1 to 5 carbon atoms; the amine nitrogen is optionally neutralized or quaternized; and the molecular weight of the copolymer, measured at a pH of 8.0, is less than 100,000. The concentration of the copolymer in the aqueous solution is 0.02 to 10%-wt, relative to the shaved weight of the leather.

Acrylic copolymers for re-tanning

The present invention relates to a process to improve the organoleptic behaviour and the physical characteristics of leather by the use of aqueous solutions of copolymers of 90 to 20%-wt acrylic acid or methyacrylic acid, as well as 10 to 80%-wt of a monomer of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is hydrogen or methyl; R.sub.2 and R.sub.3, which are equal or different, are methyl or ethyl; x stands for an optionally branched alkylene radical with 1 to 5 carbon atoms; the amine nitrogen is optionally neutralized or quaternized; and the molecular weight of the copolymer, measured at a pH of 8.0, is less than 100,000. The concentration of the copolymer in the aqueous solution is 0.02 to 10%-wt, relative to the shaved weight of the leather.

Retanning process

The present invention relates to a process for the production of N-substituted acrylic acid amides by conversion of 2-carboalkoxy-t-oxabicyclo(2,2,1)hept-5-enes with primary or secondary amines to 2-carboxamide-7-oxabicyclo(2,2,1)hept-5-enes and the thermal decomposition of the latter, preferably in the presence of Lewis acids and in a vacuum, to furane and N-substituted acrylic acid amides. The process according to the invention results in high purity N-substituted acrylic acid amides that are, in the main, free of bifunctional monomers which would disrupt the subsequent polymerization of the N-substituted acrylic acid amides by undesired cross-linking.

Process for the production of N-substituted acrylic acid amides

The invention relates to a process for the production of 7-oxabicyclo-(2,2,1)hept-5-ene derivatives by conversion of acrylic acid esters and furanes in the presence of catalytic quantities of a Lewis acid. By use of Lewis acid, the reaction time is greatly reduced with good results in terms of product purity by comparison with known processes. The reaction products are intermediates, e.g. in the production of N-substituted acrylic acid amides.
