Abstract: Disclosed is a composition containing 100 parts by mass of a pigment, 0.01-50 parts by mass of a cellulose composite and water. The composition has a solid content of more than 25% by mass, and a viscosity of not less than 30 mPa·S. The cellulose composite contains 0.5-50% by mass of a hydrophilic polymer having an acid value of not less than 2.0 and a weight average molecular weight of from 1×103 to 1×107 and 50-99.5% by mass of a crystalline cellulose. The cellulose composite has an average particle diameter of not more than 10 ?m.

Abstract: According to the present invention, a process is provided for producing an acyl group-containing composition that includes a step of reacting a long chain N-acyl acidic amino acid anhydride with one or more compounds which have, per molecule, m functional groups of one kind or more selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl, amino and thiol groups in an aqueous solvent and/or a mixed solvent of water and an organic solvent (reaction step). The process makes it possible to produce an acyl group-containing composition that is free from coloration under moderate conditions.

Abstract: A process for producing a long chain N-acyl acidic amino acid removes impurities by separating a mixture composed of a long chain N-acyl acidic amino acid containing an inorganic salt and a medium containing water and tertiary butanol into an aqueous layer and an organic layer containing the long chain N-acyl acidic amino acid at a temperature of from 35 to 80° C.

Abstract: The vinylidene chloride-based latex of the invention has a chlorine ion content reduced to or below 500 ppm based on the total concentration of all solid matter in the latex by weight, preferably by dialysis, and has excellent resistance to hot water treatment.
