Abstract

Shaped bodies of plastic material have a high elasticity and high adhesive characteristics if they contain, referred to the percentage of the plastic material of said shaped bodies, a higher percentage of a benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid tetraester. In said benzophenone-tetracartoxylate the ester forming alcohol component is an alkanol, alkenol or alkynol having 4-24 carbon atoms. The shaped bodies can be adhered to a substrate by pressing them onto it. The inventive shaped bodies are preferably strands, fibers, filaments or foils, for example foils for the packaging of products. Preferred shaped bodies are ion sensitive membranes for the determination of the concentration of ions and said membranes contain furthermore an ion selective component for the ion to be determined. Solutions of the inventive shaped bodies in a volatile organic solvent can be applied to a substrated and after the solvent is evaporated there remains on the substrate a firmly adherent elastic film.
