  • Patent number: 11173484
    Abstract: Provided are an anion exchange resin being capable of producing an electrolyte membrane, a binder for forming an electrode catalyst layer and a battery electrode catalyst layer, which have improved electrical properties and chemical properties. For example, used is an anion exchange resin which has a hydrophobic unit being composed of bisphenol AF residues repeated via carbon-carbon bond and a hydrophilic unit being composed of hydrophilic groups repeated via carbon-carbon bond, in which the hydrophilic group is formed by connecting an anion exchange group to a fluorene backbone via a divalent saturated hydrocarbon group, and in which the hydrophobic unit and the hydrophilic unit are connected via carbon-carbon bond.

  • Patent number: 9903243
    Abstract: An oil separator includes a case and introduces blow-by gas of an internal combustion engine into the case. The oil separator then separates oil from the blow-by gas and discharges the separated oil from the case. The case incorporates electrode plates, which are arranged at intervals and face each other. A filter is arranged between any adjacent two of the electrode plates. The filter is formed of fibers, which are made of an electrically insulating first material, or polyester. A potential difference is created between the electrode plates.
