Abstract
Abstract A process for the manufacture of finely divided polyester-imide powders wherein solutions of polyester-imides in organic solvents are solidified by cooling, the solvent is removed by sublimation and the solid product is pulverized. The powders may be used, as aqueous dispersions, to produce heat-resistant coatings on metallic conductors.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
69 words
A process for the manufacture of finely divided polyesterimide powders wherein solutions, of from 5 to 60% strength by weight, of a polyester-imide, optionally together with assistants, in an organic solvent having a freezing point of from +20° to -30° C are cooled to a temperature below the freezing point of the solvent, the solvent is removed by sublimation under reduced pressure and the solid solvent-free product is pulverized.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
69 words
A process for the manufacture of finely divided polyesterimide powders wherein solutions, of from 5 to 60% strength by weight, of a polyester-imide, optionally together with assistants, in an organic solvent having a freezing point of from +20° to -30° C are cooled to a temperature below the freezing point of the solvent, the solvent is removed by sublimation under reduced pressure and the solid solvent-free product is pulverized.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
55 words
A process for the manufacture of finely divided polyester-imide powders as claimed in claim 1, wherein the polyesterimide is a polycondensation product of aromatic polycarboxylic acids, polyhydric alcohols and polyacid amines, which contains from 0.5 to 7% by weight of imide nitrogen in the form of five-membered imide rings which are fused to aromatic nuclei.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
22 words
A process for the manufacture of finely divided polyester-imide powders as claimed in claim 1, wherein dioxane is used as the solvent.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
52 words
An aqueous dispersion of a polyester-imide powder, which contains from 40 to 80% by weight of water and, if appropriate, dispersing assistants, and from 60 to 20% by weight of a polyester-imide powder obtained by the process as claimed in claim 1 and having an average particle diameter of less than 1μ.
