摘要:
Cross-linked pullulans are obtained by the reaction of pullulan with a cross-linking agent selected from the group consisting of polycarboxylic acids, halogenated dicarboxylic acids, polycarboxylic anhydrides, aldehyde compounds, N-methylol compounds, isocyanate compounds, metaphosphoric acid salts, divinyl compounds, bis-aziridine and bifunctional compounds of the formula,X--R--Zwherein X and Z are each a halogen atom or an epoxy group and R is an aliphatic residue having 1 to 30 carbon atoms, in a solvent, and are useful as gels or beds for chromatography or in various fields requiring high degrees of water absorbency and retention.
摘要:
Carboxylated pullulan obtained by oxidizing pullulan with an oxidizing agent is readily soluble in cold water and has favorable film-forming property, yielding a film having high mechanical strengths, high modulus of elasticity and good transparency.
摘要:
A method for improving the water-resistance of pullulan, which is a linear high polymer having the following structural formula: ##STR1## and useful as films, sheets, fibers and the like.
摘要:
A highly absorbent polymer is obtained by saponifying a crosslinked copolymer of a vinyl ester and an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid or the derivative thereof. The absorbent polymer is suitable as a material, for example, for separation and purification of substances and a seed culturing media for plants.
摘要:
A less colored, water-insoluble, hydrophilic gel which is a saponified product of the copolymer of a vinyl ester and an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid or derivatives thereof, is prepared by drying said saponified product in a hydrated state. This gel is useful as an absorbent polymer material.
摘要:
A protective coating material for lithographic printing plate, which comprises pullulan or pullulan derivatives. Said material is superior to hitherto used gum arabic solution in the protection of the surface of lithographic printing plate against oxidation and scumming as well as in the ability to enhance the hydrophilic character of metallic surface of a non-image area.
摘要:
Enzymes are immobilized by a process wherein the carrier used for immobilizing is a hydrophilic pullulan gel having a three-dimensionally reticulated structure obtained by the reaction between pullulan and a bifunctional compound capable of forming an ether linkage with the hydroxyl group contained in the glucose unit of pullulan, or an ionic pullulan gel obtained by the reaction between said hydrophilic pullulan gel and a compound having at one end an ionizable group and at the other end a functional group capable of forming an ether linkage with the hydroxyl group in the pullulan gel in the presence of an alkaline coumpound. Immobilized enzymes prepared according to this process have a high activity and good retention of the activity.
摘要:
A method for the preparation of water-insoluble gels containing at least a hydroxyl group and a carboxylate group in molecules thereof which comprises saponifying copolymers comprising a vinyl ester component and an acrylic or methacrylic acid ester component or terpolymers comprising said two components and an ethylene component in the presence of an alkali catalyst and a solvent under conditions in which said copolymers or terpolymers are not dissolved.
摘要:
A process for producing ionic pullulan gels which comprises gelation of pullulan by crosslinking and introduction of ionic groups into the resulting pullulan gel, the former comprising reacting pullulan with a bi-functional compound in a solvent in the presence of an alkaline substance, and the latter comprising reacting the resulting pullulan gel with a compound having a carboxyl, sulfonic, phosphoric or amino group in a solvent in the presence of an alkaline substance.
摘要:
A covered electrode for arc welding is disclosed which exhibits tight adhesion between the cover material and the core wire and provides good arc stability. This covered electrode comprises a core wire coated with a coating composition comprising (a) a powdered mixture of an inorganic oxide, carbonate and fluoride, (b) an alkali silicate and (c) 0.001 to 5.0% by weight of pullulan based on the alkali silicate.
