The invention is directed to a process for producing a plastic container with a barrier coating comprising a) applying at least one coating layer of a first polyvinyl acetal on at least a part of the plastic container; b) applying at least one coating layer of polyvinyl alcohol on the first polyvinyl acetal layer; c) applying at least one top coating layer of a second polyvinyl acetal on the polyvinyl alcohol layer. The surface of the plastic container may be pre-treated before coating. In addition to the barrier coating, the surface energy of at least a part of the inside surface of the plastic container may be increased by applying at least one inner hydrophilic coating layer.

A polyvinyl chloride resin composition contains: from 0.005 to 5 parts by weight of a polyvinyl alcohol having a viscosity average degree of polymerization of from 100 to 3000 and having a ratio Mw/Mn of a weight average molecular weight Mw to a number average molecular weight Mn of from 2.2 to 4.9; and from 0.01 to 5 parts by weight of a zinc compound, based on 100 parts by weight of a polyvinyl chloride resin. A polyvinyl chloride resin composition is thereby provided that enables to obtain a shaped article thereof excellent in thermal stability while being shaped and less colored.

Polyvinyl chloride resin compositions and manufacturing method therefor

Thermoplastically processable PVC mixtures having enhanced stability are prepared by incorporating at least one stabilizer containing metal ions and a modified polyvinyl alcohol co-stabilizer.

Different papers known in prior art develop only moderate resistance to fats or contain fluorocarbon compounds or chromium complexes in the mass or in an impregnating liquor in order to develop great fat and oil penetration resistance. Said fluoride or chromium compounds represent substances that are known to be or at least seriously suspected of being unhealthy. Hence, the aim of the invention is to create a paper that is free from unhealthy components while being provided with great fat and oil penetration resistance, being easy to print, and being recyclable. Said aim is achieved by obtaining great fat and oil penetration resistance by using a paper that is made of thoroughly ground fiber materials and is glued with alkenyl succinic anhydride in the mass during impregnation inside or outside the papermaking machine with an impregnating liquor containing polyvinyl alcohols, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymers, polyvinyl butyrals, carboxymethylcellulose, gelatin, alginates, galactoglucomannans, and/or starch derivatives, polyvinyl alcohol and gelatine being preferred.

A water soluble package comprises a polymeric film, the polymeric film comprising a polymeric backbone derived from a polymer which is water soluble, as defined herein, and one or more derivatising groups attached to the backbone, the derivatising group(s) being derived from a material having a ClogP of from 0.5 to 6 and/or being derived from a parent material comprising a C4 to C22 hydrocarbyl chain.

Polymeric film for water soluble package

The present invention relates to a light-sensitive composition containing: (i) at least one diazonium polycondensation product or at least one system that can be radically polymerized and consists of photoinitiators and unsaturated compounds which can be radically polymerized or at least one hybrid system consisting of a diazonium polycondensation product and a system that can be radically polymerized and consists of photo initiators and unsaturated compounds which can be radically polymerized, (ii) at least one binding agent and optionally one or more exposure indicators, one or more dyes for increasing the image contrast and one or more acids for stabilizing the light-sensitive composition which is characterized in that the binding agent essentially consists of units (A, B, C, D), whereby A corresponds to formula (I), B corresponds to formula (II), C corresponds to formula (III) and D corresponds to formula (IV). The invention also relates to the use thereof for coating printing plates. The invention further relates to printing plates which are coated with said light-sensitive composition.

Dispersion powders comprising partially acetalized, water-soluble polyvinyl alcohols, the use of these, and process for their preparation

The reaction of polyvinyl acetate in methanolic solution with methanolic sodium hydroxide at a temperature between 10.degree. C. and 65.degree. C. with stirring at a stirring speed of from 5 to 200 rpm with a stirrer which has a ratio of stirrer diameter (d) to container diameter (D) in the range of 0.6&lt;d/D&lt;0.999 leads to a homogeneously hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol.

Process for the preparation of polyvinyl alcohol

A process for preparing poly(vinyl acetals) or poly(vinyl ketals) by reacting poly(vinyl alcohol) with an aldehyde or ketone in the presence of a catalyst which contains acid groups which are chemically bound on a sheet-like support which is insoluble in the reaction medium.
