  • Patent number: 12221497
    Abstract: A polyethylene powder having a viscosity-average molecular weight of 200,000 or more and 10,000,000 or less, wherein complex viscosity under predetermined conditions for measurement of slurry viscoelasticity satisfies the following formula (1): ?25.0×104? { ? "\[LeftBracketingBar]" ? * ? "\[RightBracketingBar]" ? ( T max ) - ? "\[LeftBracketingBar]" ? * ? "\[RightBracketingBar]" ? ( T min ) } / ( T max - T min ) ? - 5. × 10 4 ( 1 ) (|?*|(Tmax): an absolute value of complex viscosity (Pas) at Tmax, (Tmin): an absolute value of complex viscosity (Pas) at Tmin, Tmax: maximum temperature (° C.) within a range in which the formula (2) is satisfied, Tmin: minimum temperature (° C.) within a range in which the formula (2)) is satisfied: d(log|?*|)/dT ??0.1 (2) (|?*|: an absolute value of complex viscosity (Pas), T: temperature).

  • Publication number: 20240429559
    Abstract: The object of the disclosure is to provide a multilayer porous membrane that can improve heat resistance (ability to inhibit heat shrinkage) and strength when the thickness of a nonaqueous electrolyte solution battery separator has been decreased, while inhibiting friction on the separator surface as a whole, and that can also increase energy density in a nonaqueous electrolyte solution battery, as well as a nonaqueous electrolyte solution battery separator and a nonaqueous electrolyte solution battery comprising the same.

  • Patent number: 9920064
    Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing a solid catalyst capable of achieving high selectivity and high yield for isosorbide, preferably at the same time, in a dehydration reaction by which dianhydrosugar alcohol is obtained from a sugar alcohol, particularly, in a dehydration reaction by which isosorbide is obtained from sorbitol. The above-mentioned problem is solved by a solid catalyst for a dehydration reaction for preparing dianhydrosugar alcohol from sugar alcohol, said catalyst including an H-type ? zeolite having an atomic composition ratio of Si to Al (Si/Al) of more than 20.
