  • Patent number: 5997836
    Abstract: According to this invention, an amorphous or pseudo-boehmite-type hydrated alumina gel and an alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate as starting materials are reacted in an aqueous medium to give a method of producing a process for producing an alkali aluminum complex hydroxide carbonate salt which is industrially low-cost and has high productivity. Furthermore, by using a gibbsite-type hydrated alumina, a lithium aluminum complex hydroxide carbonate salt can be synthesized by a migration method.The lithium aluminum complex hydroxide carbonate salt and the sodium aluminum complex hydroxide carbonate salt obtained by the processes of the present invention have excellent compoundability in pigments and resins.In addition, these complex salts have no foaming hazards at the time of processing the resins and are useful as resin fillers for halogen capturing property, infrared ray absorbing property and excellent transparency.

  • Patent number: 5478877
    Abstract: An antistatic agent imparting excellent antistatic property to the polyacetal resins and the polyacetal resins using this antistatic agent. The antistatic agent for polyacetal resins is obtained by including polyalkylene polyols or metal salt-dissolved polyalkylene polyols in a basic carbonate of metals consisting chiefly of alkali metals and aluminum having a porous volume of 0.5 cc/g or larger over a region of meso pores to quasi-macro pores of porous radii of from 200 to 1000 angstroms or in an anion exchanger thereof, said porous volume being greater than 30% of the whole porous volume, and a polyacetal resin composition in which said antistatic agent is blended. The antistatic agent of the invention imparts stable antistatic properties to the above resins and is little dependent upon the environment, and further does not lose thermal property or mechanical strength that occurred with the conventional antistatic agents.
