Polymeric film of water-vapour-permeable thermoplastic elastomer type and the process for its manufacture. The film in accordance with the invention is based on polyetheresteramide and preferably on block polyetheramide. The invention also relates to articles comprising such a film and capable in particular of coming into contact with the human body.

A moisture-hardening one-component polyurethane lacquer for coating elastomer parts consists of polyfunctional isocyanate compounds, solvents and, if necessary, additives and agents for improving adhesion which contain reactive polysiloxanes and reactive tensides in order to improve their sliding properties. The lacquer can be applied by a simple lacquering process, in particular on nonpolar elast...

A gas meter includes a housing made of thermoplastic material having an inside wall defining two measuring chambers and a deformable membrane disposed between the two measuring chambers. The deformable membrane is formed from a film of thermoplastic elastomer material bonded to a synthetic fiber sheet. The periphery of the membrane is hot-welded to the wall between the two measuring chambers to fo...

Highly absorbent nonwoven webs formed from readily available nonwoven materials and having a polyelectrolyte super-absorbent polymeric sorbent coating the individual fibers of the nonwoven web are disclosed. The polymeric sorbent coating absorbs liquid while minimizing occlusion of the interstices of the web.

A hollow fiber filter device has a plurality of fiber filter modules suspended therein, the filter module being improved in rigidity and arranged to be easily handled while minimizing the risk of being damaged by securing the opposite ends of hollow fibers of the hollow fiber bundle to two bundle plates and by extending a central pipe from one of the bundle plates through the other of the bundle p...
