Abstract: The present disclosure aims to provide a novel method for lowering the concentrations of dimethylamine, diethylamine, ethylpropylamine, and ethylisopropylamine in a crude trialkylamine. The present disclosure relates to a method for purifying a trialkylamine, including contacting a crude trialkylamine containing at least one impurity selected from the group consisting of dimethylamine, diethylamine, ethylpropylamine, and ethylisopropylamine with a zeolite to lower a concentration of the at least one impurity selected from the group consisting of dimethylamine, diethylamine, ethylpropylamine, and ethylisopropylamine in the crude trialkylamine than the concentration before contacting with the zeolite.

Abstract: A dry etching method including reacting silicon oxide with: gaseous hydrogen fluoride and a gaseous organic amine compound; a hydrogen fluoride salt of a gaseous organic amine compound; or gaseous hydrogen fluoride, a gaseous organic amine compound, and a hydrogen fluoride salt of a gaseous organic amine compound. The organic amine compound is an organic amine mixture containing at least two compounds represented by the following formula (1): R1—N?R2R3??(1) wherein N is a nitrogen atom; R1 is a C1-C10 hydrocarbon group optionally having a ring, a heteroatom, or a halogen atom; R2 and R3 are each a hydrogen atom or a C1-C10 hydrocarbon group optionally having a ring, a heteroatom, or a halogen atom; provided that the hydrocarbon group, when it has a carbon number of 3 or more, may have a branched chain structure or a ring structure.

Abstract: The present invention is intended to provide a shrimp flavor composition and a shrimp flavor enhancer with which a more desirable shrimp flavor can be obtained, and to provide a food, a drink or a seasoning that contains the composition or the enhancer. The present invention is concerned with a shrimp flavor composition and a shrimp flavor enhancer that contain at least one of 1,5-octadien-3-one and 1,5-octadien-3-ol, and a food, a drink or a seasoning that contains the composition or the enhancer.

Abstract: An onion extract which contains glutamylmethionine, quercetin and protocatechuic acid, wherein a weight ratio of the quercetin to the glutamylmethionine (quercetin/glutamylmethionine) is 0 to 0.49, and a weight ratio of the protocatechuic acid to the glutamylmethionine (protocatechuic acid/glutamylmethionine) is 0 to 1.86.
