Abstract: This invention provides a process for producing an epoxy resin composition having core/shell rubber particles (rubber-like polymer particles) dispersed in an epoxy resin, wherein an epoxy resin composition excellent in the dispersed state of rubber-like polymer particles in an epoxy resin with a reduced amount of contaminants is produced easily and efficiently.     The epoxy resin composition having rubber-like polymer particles dispersed well in an epoxy resin with less contaminant is obtained by bringing an aqueous latex of rubber-like polymer particles (B) into contact with an organic medium (C) showing partial solubility in water, then bringing an organic medium (D) having lower partial solubility in water than that of the organic medium (C) into contact therewith to separate water substantially, to remove the rubber-like polymer particles as a dispersion (F) having the polymer particles dispersed in the organic medium, and mixing it with an epoxy resin (A), followed by distilling volatile components away.

Title: Method for producing hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds, from biomass
Inventor: GOLUBKOV IGOR
IPC: C12P7/18
Filed: 2004-10-22
Granted: 2012-12-11
Abstract: A method which can be used in fermenting carbohydrate substrates of plant origin for producing C1-C5 alcohols, and for synthesis of higher alcohols, and other oxygen-containing compounds. Since C6 and higher alcohols are not obtainable by a direct biochemical route, it is proposed to synthesize these using known chemical reactions, wherein the raw material for synthesis is biogas and lower C2-C5 alcohols obtained by the inventive method wherein the amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine, or a mixture thereof, optionally obtained from yeast autolysate, is used as a biocatalyst at the stage of fermentation. It is also proposed to use wasters of C2-C5 alcohols production for obtaining biogas. The method offers a solution to the following problems: to considerably increase the yield of C2-C5 alcohols in fermentation of carbohydrate substrates; to increase by 1.5-2.0 times the productivity of the fermentation in terms of C2-C5 alcohols production; to utilize the protein-containing waste for C2-C5 alcohols production, to reach highest efficiency of biomass utilization in producing higher oxygen-containing compounds and hydrocarbons.
