Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cerium oxide powder, a method for producing the same, and a dispersion liquid containing the powder. SOLUTION: The cerium oxide powder has a BET surface area of 25-150 m 2 /g and contains primary particles having an average diameter of 5-50 nm. The layer close to the surface of each primary particle has a depth of about 5 nm, and the carbonate concentration in the layer close to the surface is decreased toward inside from the surface. The content of carbon deriving from carbonate groups is 5-50% by area percentage on the surface and 0-30% by area percentage at a depth of about 5 nm in the layer close to the surface. The content of cerium oxide is at least 99.5 mass% based on powder. Further, the content of carbon is 0.01-0.3 mass% based on powder. The dispersion liquid is sufficiently stable even when an additive is not added additionally and can be used for chemical and mechanical polishing within a range from neutrality to weak alkalinity.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an improved method for producing a zinc oxide powder without generating a cake-like material in an evaporation zone and an oxidation zone. SOLUTION: In the evaporation zone, a gas flow of an inert gas and a fuel gas is passed through a melt of zinc having a temperature of 780-850°C while forming zinc vapor. In this case, the content of the fuel gas is 1-50 vol.% based on the total volume of the inert gas and the fuel gas, and the molar ratio of the zinc vapor to the fuel gas is 0.01-50. In the oxidation zone, a second gas flow containing an oxygen-containing gas and steam is added to a gas flow of the zinc vapor, the fuel gas, and the inert gas in such an amount that the temperature in the oxidation zone is kept within a range of 500-1,000°C.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new fouling-protective additive for a cover system for protecting a body which is contacting or is to contact with water, especially seawater, which does not have the disadvantage of, or has only a little disadvantage of a decreased degree of the additives in conventional techniques. SOLUTION: The fouling-protective additive comprises at least one inorganic and/or organic porous carrier and at least one fouling-protection working substance introduced into the porous carrier, wherein it is confirmed by a test on the outermost atomic layer of the product system by XPS that at least one part on the outermost surface of the product system is formed of the carrier material.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a method in which silicone oil or a siloxane is quantitatively determined. SOLUTION: In this method, silicone oil or a siloxane in the range of a trace amount in silicic acid or a pyrolytic oxide is quantitatively determined by the quantitative evaluation of an 1H-NMR spectrum in such a way that the silicic acid or the pyrolytic oxide is dispersed into an organic solvent, that a solid is separated in succession, that a transparent phase is set to a dry state, that a residual substance is taken into a solvent which is changed into heavy hydrogen and that the silicone oil or the siloxane is quantitatively evaluated by integrating methylsilyl protons in the 1H-NMR spectrum.

Abstract:
Surface-modified zinc oxides with a BET surface area of 18 ± 5 m²/g and a C content of 0.1 to 5.0 wt.% are prepared by spraying the zinc oxides with the surface-modifying agent or adding this in vapour form and then heat-treating the mixture. They can be employed for the preparation of cosmetics.
