  • Patent number: 8790620
    Abstract: A composition including a radioactive fluorine-labeled amino acid compound is provided, which can be prevented from radiolysis. Disclosed is a composition which includes a solution containing a radioactive fluorine-labeled amino acid compound as an effective ingredient, in which the pH value of the solution is kept at 2.0-5.9, more preferably 2.0-4.9 in order to inhibit radiolysis. Also, it is possible to further inhibit radiolysis by adding thereto a pharmaceutical additive capable of inhibiting radiolysis, such as a sugar, a sugar alcohol and a sugar lactone, while the pH is kept at 2.0-5.9.

  • Patent number: 7988866
    Abstract: In a process for treatment of powdery fumed silica, fumed silica to be discarded is collected by dispersing the fumed silica in water. Disclosed is a method for treatment of a fumed silica-containing wastewater collected in the process. The method comprises the steps of: adding an inorganic coagulant containing a metal to a fumed silica-containing wastewater in an amount of 15 to 300 mg/l. in terms of the metal, wherein the wastewater is either a wastewater containing fumed silica at a concentration of 0.05 to 3.0% by mass or a wastewater whose fumed silica content is adjusted to 0.05 to 3.0% by mass; and adding an organic polymeric coagulant to the mixture.

  • Patent number: 7625971
    Abstract: Disclosed are silica-filled rubber granules comprised of a cocoagulation product of rubber and silica, which are extremely less powdery and excellent in handling and kneading, as well as an industrially advantageous process for producing same. The silica-filled rubber granules of the present invention are dried granules of a cocoagulation product of rubber and silica particles, which are characterized in that an average particle diameter (D50) in terms of the sieve analysis is 300˜3000 ?m and the weight ratio of the granules within the range of D50±(D50×0.5) is at least 50% by weight. The silica-filled rubber granules are produced by supplying a cake of a cocoagulation product of silica and rubber having a water content of 40˜80% by weight to a drier provided with an indirect-heating type container having stirring wing blades, and then drying the cake while stirring it with the stirring wing blade.

  • Patent number: 5010486
    Abstract: A translation apparatus is capable of translating a sentence from an original language into a sentence of a target language. In the translation apparatus, the sentence from the original language is analyzed by a computer so that the sentence of the target language may be produced. Prior to the translation, if the sentence from the original language contain a word or words which have not been registered in dictionaries for translation, such words can be collectively indicated on a screen or outputted by a printer. During the translation, if the sentence of the target language contain an inappropriate word or words, each of these words can be replaced by another desired word.

  • Patent number: 4964030
    Abstract: A translation system for translating a sentence of an original language into a sentence of a target language utilizes a computer which pre-treats insertion marks. These insertion marks can be quotation marks, colons, semicolons or parentheses found in the original language sentence. The computer also post-treats the insertion marks to provide an appropriate translation of the insertion marks into the target language sentence. These translations of the insertion marks are carried out without carrying the insertion marks throughout the whole translation process.
