Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
135 words
A process for the production of hardenable boroncontaining reinforcing resins for rubber by reacting diphenylol alkane novolaks with boron compounds and unsaturated fatty acid or fatty acid esters, wherein 100 parts by weight of diphenylol alkane novolaks with an average molecular weight of from 400 to 1600 are reacted with from 20 to 100 parts by weight of a boric acid trialkyl ester containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain or with from 18 to 90 parts by weight of boric acid or with from 10 to 50 parts by weight of boron trioxide in the presence of C 1 -C 4 -alcohols, and the boric acid ester resins obtained are reacted at elevated temperatures with from 15 to 35 parts by weight of an unsaturated fatty acid or esters thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
135 words
A process for the production of hardenable boroncontaining reinforcing resins for rubber by reacting diphenylol alkane novolaks with boron compounds and unsaturated fatty acid or fatty acid esters, wherein 100 parts by weight of diphenylol alkane novolaks with an average molecular weight of from 400 to 1600 are reacted with from 20 to 100 parts by weight of a boric acid trialkyl ester containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain or with from 18 to 90 parts by weight of boric acid or with from 10 to 50 parts by weight of boron trioxide in the presence of C 1 -C 4 -alcohols, and the boric acid ester resins obtained are reacted at elevated temperatures with from 15 to 35 parts by weight of an unsaturated fatty acid or esters thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the reaction of the diphenylol alkane novolaks with the boron compounds is carried out in an alcoholic solvent.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
25 words
A process as claimed in claim 2, wherein the reaction is carried out under reflux over a period of from 30 minutes to 3 hours.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
37 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the reaction of the boric acid ester resin with unsaturated fatty acids or esters thereof is carried out at temperatures in the range of from 100° to 200° C.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
24 words
A process as claimed in claim 4, wherein the reaction is carried out at temperatures in the range of from 130° to 170° C.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
34 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the reaction solution of the mixture of diphenylol alkane novolaks with boron compounds is used for the reaction with the unsaturated fatty acids or esters thereof.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
108 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the diphenylol alkane novolaks used are reaction products of aldehydes with a diphenylol alkane corresponding to the general formula: ##STR4## in which R = C 1 -C 8 -alkyl, C 5 -C 12 -cycloalkyl, R' = h or R, or R and R' = C 4 -C 7 -alkylene, in addition to which R and R' form a carbocyclic ring with the carbon atom by which they are joined, and R" = h or C 1 -C 4 -alkyl, or mixtures of diphenylol alkanes of the general formula (II) with hydroxy phenyl hydroxy indanes corresponding to the general formula: ##STR5##
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
61 words
Boron-containing resins obtainable by the process claimed in claim 1 which are soluble in methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol, isobutanol, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, acetone, methylethyl ketone, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, methyl and ethyl glycol acetate and have an iodine number of from 80 to 200, an OH-number of from 200 to 500 and a boron content of up to 7% by weight.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
34 words
Boron-containing resins as claimed in claim 8 with an iodine number of from 110 to 170, an OH-number of from 240 to 450 and a boron content of from 1.5 to 5% by weight.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
44 words
A process for the production of rubber vulcanisates with increased vulcanisate hardness and improved physical properties, wherein the boron-containing resins claimed in claim 8 are mixed with rubber at elevated temperatures in the presence of a formaldehyde donor and the resulting mixture is vulcanised.
