A molding composition which is essentially composed of a mixture of at least two polymers based on vinyl chloride and at least one water-soluble surfactant is described. One of the polymers is a sinterable vinyl chloride/alkyl acrylate copolymer which can contain, in addition, polymerized units of vinyl acetate and ethylene. At least one further polymer is a vinyl chloride polymer which can contain up to 5% by weight of polymerized units of vinyl acetate and ethylene. The molding composition is suitable for the production of sintered, porous, flexible moldings, in particular separator compartments for electric cells.

Sinterable, finely particular molding composition based on vinyl

A sinterable, finely divided molding material and the preparation thereof are described. The molding material is composed of a vinyl chloride (graft) copolymer, at least one anionic and/or nonionic emulsifier and, if appropriate, small quantities of additives. The vinyl chloride (graft) copolymer contains 95 to 70% by weight of polymerized units of vinyl chloride, 5 to 30% by weight of polymerized units of an alkyl acrylate having 3 to 10 carbon atoms, 0 to 7% by weight of polymerized units of ethylene and 0 to 15% by weight of polymerized units of vinyl acetate. The molding material is suitable for the production of flexible, sintered moldings, in particular separator plates, for electric cells.

Sinterable, finely divided molded material based on polyvinyl chloride

A process is described for the preparation of mixtures for processing as plastisols or organosols, wherein at least one known plasticizer, at least one first vinyl chloride copolymer and at least one vinyl chloride homopolymer or a second vinyl chloride copolymer are mixed together, if appropriate with the addition of further known substances. The first copolymer is a specific vinyl chloride graft copolymer, of which 5 to 70% by weight are employed, relative to the total quantity of polymers present in the mixture. It contains 99.5 to 88% by weight of polymerized units of vinyl chloride, 0.1 to 11.9% by weight of polymerized units of vinyl acetate and 0.1 to 2.2% by weight of polymerized units of ethylene. The remaining polymer(s) employed is/are prepared in accordance with customary processes. Mixtures prepared in this manner produce plastisols or organosols which have a low viscosity and good stability on storage and which also enable uniform coatings to be obtained by applying a thin layer.

The sinterable polyvinyl chloride molding composition described is composed of 99.8 to 97% by weight, relative to the molding composition, of a suspension graft copolymer which is, in turn, composed of 99.7 to 85% by weight of polymerized vinyl chloride units, 0.9 to 10.5% by weight of polymerized ethylene units and 0.09 to 10.5% by weight of polymerized vinyl acetate units, with the proviso that the total of the polymerized ethylene and vinyl acetate units is 0.3 to 15% by weight, relative to the graft copolymer, and also 0.01 to 0.5% by weight, relative to the molding composition, of at least one free alkylarylsulfonic acid having 3 to 16 C atoms in the alkyl chain or at least one alkylsulfonic acid having 8 to 16 C atoms, and also 0.005 to 0.5% by weight, relative to the molding composition, of at least one water-soluble wetting agent which is free from metal ions and contains 12 to about 80 C atoms and a quaternary N atom which forms a salt with a carboxylic or sulfonic acid group. The molding composition gives sintered moldings, particularly separator plates for electrical cells, which have advantageous properties.
