Title: Anti-inflammatory agent
Inventor: KYOGASHIMA MAMORU
IPC: A61K31/727
Filed: 1996-09-19
Abstract: An anti-inflammatory agent efficacious in treating protracted inflammation or inflammation in which the immunological mechanism participates. The agent comprises as the active ingredient dermatan sulfate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The agent is usable in preventing or treating inflammation in association with glomerulonephritis, collagen diseases, multiple sclerosis, intractable vasculitis, immunopathy or autoimmune disease. When used together with an immunosuppressant (adrenocortical hormone, etc), the agent largely enhances the effects achieved by the immunosuppressant, which makes it possible to reduce the dose of the immunosuppressant. It is orally, intramuscularly, intraarterially or intravascularly administered in a dose of from 50 to 3,000 mg/day.

Title: Improved process for alkylation of alkanes with c3 to c5 alkenes using a solid acid catalyst
Inventor: BARGER PAUL T
IPC: B01J27/125
Filed: 1998-06-02
Abstract: Although olefins commonly are used to alkylate alkanes using various solid acid catalysts, the process is severely hampered by short catalyst lifetimes attending substantial olefin oligomerization. This problem is avoided by using an alkyl halide as the alkylating agent.  Thus, alkylation of isobutane by olefin in the presence of a modified, AlCl3-type Friedel-Crafts catalyst at 30°C falls to about 77% in four hours, whereas alkylation with sec-butyl chloride at the same conditions fell to 88% over 30 hours.

Title: Process for producing a cutting die
Inventor: MCGREGOR GAVIN
IPC: B23P15/40
Filed: 1998-06-30
Abstract: A process for producing a cutting die having a metal base which carries a sharpened ridge extending along a predetermined path thereon, in which a supply of powdered metal and a laser beam are moved along the path so as to surface melt a thin layer of the metal base with the metal powder and thus form a band of fused metal powder along the path, this step being repeated to form additional layers metallurgically bonded to the base and to each other, until a ridge of metal is formed. The ridge is then sharpened to suit it for use in cutting. The ridge may have a top surface of harder material than the inner part of the ridge. The laser and powder delivery movements may be controlled by a CNC (computer numerical control) motion system. The invention includes novel dies produced by this process.
