  • Patent number: 7615662
    Abstract: Isocyanates are produced by reaction of primary amines with phosgene in the gas phase. In this process, the reaction is terminated by guiding the reaction mixture from the reaction chamber through a cooling stretch into which liquids are injected. Direct cooling takes place in the cooling stretch in one stage in two or more cooling zones connected in series.

  • Patent number: 7411003
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound of Antrodia camphorata used to inhibit HBV, in particular to an extract, 4-hydroxy-2,3-dimethoxy-6-methyl-5(3,7,11-trimethyl-dodeca-2,6,10-trienyl)-cyclohex-2-enone which is isolated from Antrodia camphorata, and its use in inhibiting HBV effectively. The cyclohexenone compound according to the present invention showed cytotoxicity on HBV-secreting human hepatoma cell line HepG2 2.2.15, decreased synthesis of HBV particles, further inhibited synthesis of HbsAg and HbeAg effectively to achieve the goal of HBV inhibition.

  • Patent number: 6956143
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process and a device for the dissolution of salt that is hardly soluble, especially sodium chloride and other poorly soluble salts in 1,2 dichloroethane, which primarily are to be used in direct chlorination plants for the production of 1,2 dichloroethane. This aim is achieved by mounting an ultrasonic transducer (sonotrode) in the dissolution chamber which is filled with a suspension of salt crystals and 1,2 dichloroethane. The suspension is sent through a filter upon dissolution of the salt.
