Abstract: A stable and high loading ternary solid dispersion composition comprising (a) about 50% wt. to about 90% wt. of amorphous Efavirenz; (b) about 10% wt. to about 50% wt. of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), a first polymer; (c) about 1% wt. to about 30% wt. of a water-soluble second polymer; and (d) optionally about 0.1% wt. to about 50% wt. of at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. Also discloses a high loading ternary composition comprising (a) a solid dispersion composition comprising (i) about 50% wt. to about 90% wt. of amorphous Efavirenz; (ii) about 10% wt. to about 50% wt. of polyvinyl pyrrolidone, a first polymer; (b) about 1% wt. to about 30% wt. of a water-soluble second polymer blended with solid dispersion of composition of (a); and (c) optionally about 0.1% wt. to about 50% wt. of at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

Abstract: An environmentally improved process is provided to fade denim fabric either as the woven fabric or after being made up into garments. The denim fabric may optionally be uniformly faded, or faded in a random pattern and stone washed. The effluent from the process does not have the disadvantage of the high COD of conventional processes.

Abstract: A process is provided for detoxifying an aqueous solution containing a cyanide by employing hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a solid catalyst. The solid catalyst comprises a transition metal supported on an aluminum oxide and/or silicon oxide base.

Abstract: A process for replacing an aromatic carbon-thallium bond with a carbon-oxygen bond. The process is particularly suitable for producing specific aromatic isomers by thallating an aromatic compound and replacing the thallium with a carboxylate group which can be further hydrolyzed if desired to form an aromatic hydroxyl compound.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a process for epoxidizing an olefin to an oxirane by forming a monopercarboxylic acid in-situ by reacting a cyclic anhydride of a polybasic acid with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a basic catalyst and recovering the oxirane as a distillate.

Abstract: A process is provided for oxidizing unsaturated organic compounds with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a strong-acid type of polymer containing a cation of a transition metal. The process results in a decrease in undesired side reactions in epoxidations and improved isomer control in the hydroxylation of aromatic compounds.
