Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a propylene-based block copolymer, the deposition thereof on the inner wall of the polymerization vessel having been sufficiently inhibited. The propylene-based block copolymer of the present invention has a flowability evaluation value of 40% or less, the value being calculated with the following equation wherein X (sec) is the number of seconds over which 100 g of the copolymer having ordinary temperature falls from a stainless-steel funnel having an inner diameter of 11.9 mm and Y (sec) is the number of seconds over which 100 g of the copolymer which has been held at 80° C. for 24 hours under a load of 10 kg falls from the funnel having an inner diameter of 11.9 mm. Flowability evaluation value (%)={(Y/X)?1}×100.

Abstract: The invention provides edible pearly capsules containing a large amount of an oleaginous substance as the core substance. The above capsules can be provided by the method which comprises contacting liquid drops (a) of a composition comprising an aqueous solution of a water-soluble macromolecular substance at least a portion of which is marmelo mucilage (a.sub.1), an oleaginous substance (a.sub.2), e.g. animal or vegetable oil, a water-soluble polyvalent metal salt (a.sub.3), e.g. calcium chloride, and sodium chloride (a.sub.4) with an aqueous solution of a water-soluble salt of alginic acid (b) to thereby form a water-insoluble film of alginic acid salt on the outer surface of said liquid drops (a).

Abstract: An adhesive composition comprising 100 parts by weight of at least one .alpha.-cyanoacrylate monomer and 5 to 300 parts by weight of trichlorotrifluoroethane.
