A sealing web including the following layer structure: a) a film containing polyvinyl chloride; b) a first adhesive; c) a polyethylene terephthalate film; and d) a second adhesive; wherein the layers are disposed in the sequence a), b), c), and d). The sealing web makes it possible to implement adhesion of a PVC web over a large area, without problems arising from the migration of the plasticizer from the PVC film to the adhesive, or in that said problems are at least greatly reduced.

Sealing membrane with barrier against plasticizer migration

The present invention relates to laminates of a plasticizer-containing plastic, obtained by bonding by means of a moisture-reactive hot-melt adhesive which comprises at least one aldimine and at least one polyurethane polymer which contains isocyanate groups and is solid at room temperature. The bonded assembly is notable for improved adhesive, particularly following heat/moisture storage or alternating storage. Preferred embodiments of such laminates are bonded films or film-laminated supports, the film preferably being a pPVC film.

Laminates joined by polyurethane hot-melt adhesive and process for bonding plasticizer-containing plastics

The invention relates to a method which allows a long-term bonding of thermoplastics. The air-plasma treatment at atmospheric ambient pressure allows very long storage times, up to several years. The inventive method allows to glue thermoplastics, stored under various storage conditions, for a long term without any noticeable decrease in adhesive strength.

Stabilized organic material

o-Hydroxyphenyl-s-triazines of the formula I

o-Hydroxyphenyl-s-triazines of the formula I ##STR1## in which n is 1 to 4 and R.sub.1 to R.sub.7 are as defined in claim 1, can be used, in combination with sterically hindered amines of the polyalkylpiperidine type, for stabilizing organic polymers. Some of these compounds are novel and can also be used without polyalkylpiperidine.

Compounds which comprise at least one group of the formula I or II ##STR1## and at least one polyalkylpiperidine group of the formula III ##STR2## in which R and R.sub.1 to R.sub.6 have the meaning indicated in claim 1, are effective stabilisers for organic materials against damage by light, oxygen and heat.

Compounds formed from o-hydroxyphenyl-1,3,5-triazines and sterically

A photographic material is described which comprises, on a base, blue-sensitive, green-sensitive and/or red-sensitive silver-halide emulsion layers and if desired a protection layer, a layer containing a UV absorber being arranged between the uppermost silver-halide emulsion layer and the protection layer or on top of the uppermost silver-halide emulsion layer, wherein the UV absorber conforms to the formula ##STR1## in which the radicals R.sub.1 and R.sub.12 are as defined in claim 1.

Triazine compounds as UV absorbers for photographic material

Light-stabilized polymer microparticles, which contain at least one light stabilizer, and processes for the preparation of these microparticles by polymerization of suitable monomers, at least a part of the polymerization being carried out in the presence of at least one light stabilizer, are described. The polymer microparticles can be used in coating compositions which comprise a disperse phase containing these particles and a liquid continuous phase. Coatings and finishes based on the compositions according to the invention are distinguished by improved weathering resistance, in particular by a high light stability.

Light-stabilized polymer microparticles

Curable compositions comprising (a) a fluorine- or silicon-containing copolymer, (b) a (meth)acrylic copolymer and (c) at least one curing agent are described, each of the two copolymers comprising functional groups which can react with the curing agent, wherein the fluorine- or silicon-containing copolymer comprises a UV absorber which is chemically bound by reaction with the free reactive groups of the copolymer. These copolymer compositions can be used as paint binders.

Light-stabilised copolymer compositions as paint binders

A UV absorber of formula (1a) ##STR1## in which E.sub.1, E.sub.2 and E.sub.3 are independently substituted alkyl or substituted silyl or siloxyl moieties, are useful in protecting photographic materials from the deleterious effects of actinic light.

S-triazine UV absorbers

Compounds which comprise at least one group of the formula I or II ##STR1## and at least one polyalkylpiperidine group of the formula III ##STR2## in which R and R.sub.1 to R.sub.6 have the meaning indicated in claim 1, are effective stabilizers for organic materials against damage by light, oxygen and heat.

Compositions stabilized by o-hydroxyphenyl-1,3,5-triazines and

A photographic material is described which comprises, on a base, blue-sensitive, green-sensitive and/or red-sensitive silver-halide emulsion layers and if desired a protection layer, a layer containing a UV absorber being arranged between the uppermost silver-halide emulsion layer and the protection layer or on top of the uppermost silver-halide emulsion layer, wherein the UV absorber conforms to the formula ##STR1## in which the radical R.sub.1 is alkyl, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, glycidyl, cycloalkyl or phenylalkyl, and R.sub.12 is alkyl, benzyl, cyclohexyl, phenyl, substituted phenyl or alkoxy.

Photographic material containing UV absorber

The stabilised binder is a mixture of two copolymers and at least one curing agent. The one copolymer contains fluorine or silicon and a UV absorber in copolymerised form. The other copolymer is an acrylic resin. Suitable curing agents are melamine resins or polyisocyanates.

Light-stabilized binders for coating compositions

2-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-4,6-diphenyl- and -4,6-di-p-tolyl-1,3,5-triazines are particularly suitable stabilisers, especially against light-induced degradation, for coating materials. They are superior in this respect to the corresponding 4,6-bis(2,4-dimethylphenyl) derivatives.
