Moulding materials with a polyarylene ether sulfone and aliphatic polyamide base

Impact-resistant thermoplastic molding materials

In a multilayer panel comprising a core layer A with a honeycomb structure or an open-celled foam structure and at least one cover layer C made of a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic polymer, layers A and C are bonded to one another by an adhesive B which is a thermoplastic polymer.

Multilayer panel

Herbicides which contain 2-(4-aryloxy)phenoxyacetic or -propionic acid

4,4'-Dihydroxyterphenyl is prepared by sulfonating terphenyl with sulfuric acid, sulfur trioxide, a mixture thereof or chlorosulfonic acid and then treating the resulting terphenyl-4,4'-disulfonic acid, which may be first converted into a dialkali metal salt, with an alkali metal hydroxide.

Preparation of 4,4'-dihydroxyterphenyl

2,4-Dihydroxybenzoic acid is prepared in a solids mixer by reacting resorcinol with an alkali metal bicarbonate and/or alklai metal carbonate in a carbon dioxide atmosphere using as the alkali metal bicarbonate or alkali metal carbonate a mixture of the corresponding sodium and potassium salts.

Preparation of aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acids

Benzophenones are prepared by condensing benzoic acids and aromatics of the benzene series by means of boron trifluoride in nitrobenzene as reaction medium.

Preparation of benzophenones

4,4'-dihydroxybiphenyl is prepared by treating biphenyl-4,4'-disulfonic acid or one of its alkali metal salts in an alkali metal hydroxide melt by a process in which the treatment is carried out in a melt which contains from 7 to 14 moles of potassium hydroxide and from 0 to 8 moles of sodium hydroxide, based in each case on 1 mole of biphenyl-4,4'-disulfonic acid, in the presence of an alkali metal carbonate at from 280.degree. to 360.degree. C.
