Abstract: It is intended to provide a polymer for coating a leukocyte removal filter material which is excellent in the capability of removing leukocytes. It is further intended to provide a filter whereby both of leukocytes and platelets can be highly efficiently removed from a blood product containing leukocytes and platelets. The above objects can be achieved by using a polymer for coating a leukocyte removal filter material which comprises a unit originating in a hydrophobic polymerizable monomer, a unit originating in a polymerizable monomer containing a basic nitrogen-containing part, and a unit originating in a polymerizable monomer containing a protonic neutral hydrophilic part.

Abstract: A process and an apparatus for producing terephthalic acid economically by oxidizing paraxylene supplied to an oxidizing reactor connected with a compactly designed distillation column in an acetic acid-based solvent, while effecting the distillatory recovery of the paraxylene and acetic acid efficiently without suffering from stuffing of the distillation column.
