  • Publication number: 20220258123
    Abstract: Provided are: an exhaust gas purifying composition that contains a phosphorus-containing BEA-type zeolite and has further improved heat resistance; and a production method therefor. The exhaust gas purifying composition contains a phosphorus-containing BEA-type zeolite, wherein the phosphorus-containing BEA-type zeolite has a pore volume ratio (V2/V1) of a micropore volume V2 having a pore diameter in a range of 2 nm or less, as measured by a SF method, to a mesopore volume V1 having a pore diameter in a range of 2 nm or more and 100 nm or less, as measured by a BJH method, of 2.0 or more.

  • Patent number: 8715836
    Abstract: It is an object to provide a surface-treated electro-deposited copper foil which has a low profile at a level equal to or excellent than that of low-profile surface-treated electro-deposited copper foils that have conventionally been supplied to the market and in which waviness affecting the straight line performance of wiring is small, and a method for manufacturing the same. In order to achieve this object, in the surface-treated electro-deposited copper foil, the maximum waviness height (Wmax) of the bonding surface to be bonded with an insulation layer-constituting material to be 0.05 ?m to 0.7 ?m, the maximum peak to valley height (PV) to be 0.05 to 1.5 ?m, and the surface roughness (Rzjis) to be 0.1 ?m to 1.0 ?m.
