A process for reducing the heat evolution on dynamic stressing of vulcanised rubber products, using for this purpose, in vulcanizable rubber mixtures, mixtures made from non-selfcuring novolaks A and from unetherified or partially etherified triazine resins B, as a combination of reinforcing resin and curing agent.

Rubber products with low heat build up on mechanical stressing

Water-dilutable printing ink binder system based on a binder in the form of a clear, dilute, ammoniacal or amine-containing solution, the binder being a product of reacting a natural resin acid and formaldhyde in at least one stage, the amount of (100% strength) formaldehyde being 1 to 25% by weight, based on the natural resin acid, and the reaction having been carried out under atmospheric or superatmospheric pressure in the absence or in the presence of 0.1 to 2% by weight of a lewis catalyst. A variant comprises partially esterifying the natural resin acid/formaldehyde reaction product with at least one polycarboxylic acid unit of the group (a) an ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid and/or the anhydride thereof and (b) a hydroxycarboxylic acid. The binder system has added to it as solubilizers monohydric and/or polyhydric alcohols, and the pH value is preferably set to 7.5 to 10. The binder systems are used as printing varnishes or in combination with carbon black or colored pigments and if desired further customary additives as printing inks, in particular for flexographic printing, letterpress printing and offset printing.

Water-dilutable printing ink binder system and use thereof as printing

Aqueous pigment preparations which contain (a) 5 to 80% by weight of a finely-divided inorganic and/or organic pigment, (b) 5 to 80% by weight of an aequeous polyurethane dispersion, (c) 2 to 80% by weight of water and (d) 0 to 50% by weight of an organic solvent.

Polyurethane dispersions based on reaction products from (A) bismethylolated urethanes having at least 2 urethane groups and (B) polyhydroxyl compounds which contain groups which are capable of ion formation, these groups being present in neutralized form, and a process for the preparation thereof. The use of the dispersions for the surface-coating of metal, plastics, glass, leather and paper.

Isocyanate-free polyurethane dispersions

Triazolyl stilbene compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein A is a benzene or naphthalene ring optionally substituted by non-chromophoric substituents and B is a substituted 1,2,4-oxdiazole (3) or 1,3,5-oxdiazole (2) group, as well as a procedure for their manufacture and their use as optical brighteners.

Novel stilbene compounds: process for their manufacture and their use as

Diamino-1,3-5-triazinylstilbene compounds of the formula ##STR1## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 may be identical or different and represent each hydrogen or non chromophoric radicals selected from the group consisting of fluorine or chlorine atoms, phenyl, alkyl, lower alkoxy, lower dialkylamino, lower trialkylammonium, acyl amino or optionally functionally modified carboxy or sulfo groups, or two vicinal radicals, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 denote together lower alkylene, a fused benzo ring or 1,3-dioxypropylene, the rings A and B having optionally further non chromophoric substituents, and X is O or S. These compounds are good optical brighteners and are prepared by reacting a 4'-cyano-4-benzoxazolyl- or 4'-cyano-4-benzthiazolylstilbene compound with dicyanoamide or with urea and ammonia.
