Abstract: An axial flow fan has a boss portion rotationally driven by a motor; a plurality of rotary blades extending radially from a periphery of the boss portion and configured to force air to flow in a direction of a rotation axis of the motor; and a bellmouth accommodating the plurality of rotary blades, the bellmouth comprising a suction-side round portion having a curved surface expanded in a radial direction of the bellmouth, and a discharge-side round portion having a curved surface expanded in the radial direction of the bellmouth, the plurality of rotary blades each being entirely inclined to have an outer peripheral portion in a downstream side in an airflow direction, entirety of the outer peripheral portion being located on the downstream side in the air flow direction with respect to the suction-side round portion.

Abstract: An axial flow fan improves air capacity and static pressure characteristics, and can ease stress at a leading edge portion of a blade base, even when a shape for noise reduction is adopted. An axial flow fan includes a boss portion and rotor blades. A rotor blade is segmented into a first area extending from the boss portion toward the outer peripheral side, and a second area connected to the first area and extending from the first area to the outermost periphery of the rotor blade. The distribution of a forward sweep angle varies quadratically in the first area, and the maximum forward sweep angle in the first area is not larger than the forward sweep angle in the second area. The distribution of chord-pitch ratio varies in a curved manner from the base as the minimum value in the first area, and is linear in the second area.

Abstract: The present invention provides a separating agent for enantiomeric isomers which exhibits stable separating performance, high optical resolving power, and sufficient solvent resistance at the same time. The separating agent for enantiomeric isomers includes an optically active polymer compound such as cellulose or amylose carried on a carrier such as silica gel through chemical bonding and has a specific surface area of 10 to 150 m2/g and an average particle size of 1 to 100 ?m.

Abstract: A separating agent which comprises a polysaccharide derivative having an Mw/Mn (wherein Mw and Mn represent the weight-average molecular weight calculated as polystyrene and the number-average molecular weight calculated as polystyrene, respectively), which indicates the extent of molecular weight distribution, of 1 to 3.When liquid chromatography is effected using this separating agent as a column packing, the base line is highly steady, various types of solvents can be used as the eluent, and low-molecular polysaccharide derivatives are not eluted.

Abstract: A separating agent which, when used as the packing material for reverse-phase liquid chromatography, has excellent baseline stability in the mobile phase and an increased number of steps of the detected peak in the measurement is provided. The agent comprises a polysaccharide derivative supported on a silica gel having surface silanol groups treated with a silylating agent having an aralkyl group.

Abstract: Polysaccharide derivative molecules are crosslinked exclusively among themselves on a support such as silica gel with the use of a polyfunctional crosslinking agent to immobilize the polysaccharide derivative on the support. The separating agent for optical isomers produced by the method has a high solvent resistance and, therefore, is most suitable as a separating agent for optical resolution.
