  • Patent number: 9771302
    Abstract: An environmentally friendly cement comprises (1) an active filler comprising waste materials composed of a thermal insulation wool and a waste thereof; (2) an inert filler comprising metakaolin and an aggregate optionally selected from cement, fine sand, gravel, waste to be solidified, and organic resin; and (3) an aqueous solution of sodium metasilicate as an alkaline compound. A method for producing the environmentally friendly cement comprises mixing ingredients (1) and (3) and ingredients (2) and (3) respectively to obtain a slurry A and a slurry B respectively; mixing the slurry A and B; and hardening the final slurry, whereby elements silicon and aluminum in the ingredient (1) are dissolved out in the basic solution of the ingredient (3), and a closed framework structure is formed by bonding silica and alumina as tetrahedrons. The environmentally friendly cement has excellent fire tolerance, heat insulation, acid and alkaline resistance, and mechanical properties.

  • Patent number: 9068056
    Abstract: Disclosed is layered double hydroxides (LDH) used to catalyze the polymerization of polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The LDH of a catalyst amount may efficiently reduce the PET polymerization period and further be uniformly blended into the PET product to form composites. Compared with the pure PET, the composite including LDH has better properties such as mechanical properties, linear expansion coefficient, barrier, thermal stability, and transparency. In addition, the LDH in the composite is safer than conventional heavy metal catalysts, especially when applied to food or drink packages.

  • Patent number: 8741619
    Abstract: A method for purifying protein aqueous is provided. A protein aqueous is first provided. An absorption material is mixed into the protein aqueous to form a first mixture. The first mixture is separated into a solid-liquid two phases solution by a first separation process. A buffer solution is added into the solid phase from the solid-liquid two phases solution which has a target protein therein to form a second mixture. Then, a second separation process is performed to separate the second mixture to obtain a purified protein aqueous.
