Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a copolymerized polyester which is effective as a binder ingredient for aqueous paint, and a copolymerized polyester aqueous dispersion.

Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a copolymerized polyester and a resin composition which are excellent in storage stability, water-resistant adhesion, processability, weathering resistance and leveling property. According to the present invention, there is provided a copolymerized polyester containing a polyvalent carboxylic acid component and a polyhydric alcohol component as copolymerization components, wherein, when a content of the polyvalent carboxylic acid component is taken as 100% by mole, a content of an alicyclic polyvalent carboxylic acid component is 50% by mole or more, and wherein the copolymerized polyester has an acid value of 170 to 1000 equivalents/106 g.

Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a copolymerized polyester which is effective as a binder ingredient for aqueous paint, and a copolymerized polyester aqueous dispersion.

Abstract: The method is related to intermittent coating capable of distinctly defining a boundary between a coated region and an uncoated region on a web, to thereby intermittently form a coated film on the web with increased accuracy and efficiency. A coating liquid feed pump is arranged so as to alternately communicate with a circulation line and a pocket of an extrusion type coater through a directional control valve, resulting in coating liquid being intermittently fed to the pocket and then forced out of a slit, so that coated regions and uncoated regions may be alternately formed on a conductive sheet material. During interruption of communication between the pocket and the feed pump, the pocket is permitted to communicate via a discharge pipe and a shut-off valve with a sub-tank to reduce a pressure of coating liquid in the pocket, to thereby prevent undesired feeding of coating liquid to the uncoated region beyond an end position of the coated region.

Abstract: Superoxide dismutase is chemically modified with poly(alkylene oxide), the modified superoxide dismutase having a molecular structure in which both ends of a poly(alkylene oxide) molecule are attached to superoxide dismutase. The modified superoxide dismutase can be used to remove toxic substances derived from oxygen, from the blood circulation in a living body, and has a longer half life in the blood circulation as compared to superoxide dismutase which has not been modified.

Abstract: There is disclosed hemoglobin modified in that a poly(alkylene oxide) is bonded thereto by a bond between a terminal group of said poly(alkylene oxide) and an amino group of said hemoglobin, said bond having the structure:--CH.sub.2 --O--(CH.sub.2)--CONH--Hbwherein Hb represents said hemoglobin and n represents a positive integer, preferably 1 to 7. The modified hemoglobin is an effective oxygen carrier and can therefore be used as a blood substitute.

Abstract: An oxygen carrying material containing hemoglobin or a hemoglobin derivative covalently coupled through an amide bond to a polymer selected from the group consisting of polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, and copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide.

Abstract: A hemoglobin modified by covalently bound inulin.

Abstract: A novel modified hemoglobin was prepared. The hemoglobin is coupled with a polyalkylene glycol or its derivative, and the products are useful as a blood substitute. The oxygen-carrying capacity of this hemoglobin is nearly equal to that of a native hemoglobin, and the residence time in the circulation is satisfactorily long.
