IPC: C22B34/12
Filed: 2006-08-22
Abstract: This invention provides a method for the electrolysis of a molten salt that can enhance metal fog formation metal concentration of the molten salt. In the method, electrolysis is carried out in such a state that a molten metal containing a chloride of a metal fog forming metal is supplied from one end of an electrolytic cell to a part between an anode and a cathode in a continuous or intermittent manner to provide a flow rate in one direction to the molten salt in its part near the surface of the cathode and thus to allow the molten salt to flow in one direction at the part near the surface of the cathode. In the method, while high current efficiency is maintained, only a molten salt enriched with a metal fog forming metal such as Ca can be effectively taken out. Further, this method can easily be carried out by the electrolytic cell according to the present invention. Furthermore, the application of the method for the electrolysis of a molten salt to the production of Ti by Ca reduction can realize the production of metal Ti with high efficiency. Thus, the method for the electrolysis of a molten salt, the electrolytic cell, and the process for producing Ti can be effectively utilized by the production of Ti by Ca reduction.

Abstract: A stabilized bioadhesive composition containing an alkaline labile drug and a method for its preparation are provided. In one aspect, the composition is a hot-melt extruded (HME) composition comprising a preformed excipient mixture comprising an acidic component and an alkaline thermoplastic matrix-forming material, e.g. polymer. The excipient mixture is formed before blending with an alkaline labile drug. The blend is then hot-melt extruded to form the HME composition. By so doing, the acidic component is able to neutralize or render moderately acidic the excipient mixture. This particular process has been shown to substantially reduce the degradation of an alkaline labile drug during hot-melt extrusion. The excipient mixture softens or melts during hot-melt extrusion. It can dissolve or not dissolve drug-containing particles during extrusion. Various functional excipients can be included in the carrier system to improve process performance and/or improve the chemical or physical properties of the HME composition.
