Abstract: Silica particles calcined in a calcination step are supplied in a swirling flow generated by a gas introduced in a disintegration container and disintegrated therein, whereby the silica particles can be easily disintegrated and there can be obtained disintegrated silica particles having both low hygroscopicity and high dispersibility in resin. In addition, the introduction of dehumidified air (gas) during the disintegration reduces hygroscopicity and greatly improves dispersibility in resin. Furthermore, performing heating treatment (calcination) again after the disintegration causes the surface modification of the disintegrated silica particles, greatly improving hygroscopicity and dispersibility in resin. The resin composition obtained in this manner including silica particles provides good injectability and filterability when used for an underfill material for semiconductors and an in-plane spacer or sealing spacer of liquid crystal displays.

Abstract: A catalyst for oxychlorination according to the present invention contains alumina and copper, and a content of copper is in the range from 5 to 20% by weight calculated as that of CuO, while a content of halogen is not more than 5% by weight. The catalyst is produced by the following steps (a) to (c): (a) preparing a slurry for spray-drying by adding an acid and an aqueous solution of cupric nitrate in a pseudo-boehmite alumina slurry; (b) spray-drying the slurry; and (c) burning the particles obtained in step (b).

Abstract: A solution of a chromium compound is impregnated into a silica-alumina carrier made of alumina and containing 1 to 5 weight % of silica relative to the weight of the carrier, thereby to obtain a decomposing catalyst carrying 10 to 15 weight % of chromium oxide relative to the weight of the catalyst in terms of Cr2O3. By contacting mixed gas obtained through partial oxidation of heavy oil and/or coal with the decomposing catalyst, COS and HCN contained in the mixed gas are decomposed/removed. In this case, transition of alumina into boehmite can be suppressed owing to coexistence of silica and chromium oxide, so that COS and HCN can be decomposed by highly active catalytic reactions over a long time.
