  • Patent number: 10413582
    Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition for treating eczema is disclosed. The pharmaceutical composition includes, by weight, 2 to 6 parts of Dried Rhizoma Zingiberis Officinalis, 2 to 6 parts of Paeonia Lactiflora, 1 to 4 parts of Fructus Amomi, 0.5 to 3 parts of Semen Alpiniae Katsumadai, 0.5 to 3 parts of Inula helenium, 0.5 to 3 parts of Radix Et Rhizoma Rhei and 0.5 to 3 parts of Rhizoma Dioscoreae. The components of the pharmaceutical composition synergistically cooperate to clear and disinhibit the liver and gallbladder and clear away damp heat from the body. The pharmaceutical composition can be used to treat skin eczema symptoms caused by metabolic disorders of the liver and gallbladder functions. A method for preparing the pharmaceutical composition is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 8410185
    Abstract: A porous polymer, poly-9,9?-spirobifluorene and its derivatives for storage of H2 are prepared through a chemical synthesis method. The porous polymers have high specific surface area and narrow pore size distribution. Hydrogen uptake measurements conducted for these polymers determined a higher hydrogen storage capacity at the ambient temperature over that of the benchmark materials. The method of preparing such polymers, includes oxidatively activating solids by CO2/steam oxidation and supercritical water treatment.
