| 20130233769 | METHOD OF PRODUCING REGENERATED HYDROTREATING CATALYST AND METHOD OF PRODUCING PETROLEUM PRODUCTS - A method of producing a regenerated hydrotreating catalyst, including a first step of preparing a hydrotreating catalyst that has been used for hydrotreatment of a petroleum fraction and has a metal element selected from Group 6 elements of the periodic table; a second step of performing regeneration treatment for part of the catalyst prepared in the first step, then performing X-ray absorption fine structure analysis for the catalyst after the regeneration treatment, and obtaining regeneration treatment conditions in which a ratio IS/IO of a peak intensity IS of a peak attributed to a bond between the metal element and a sulfur atom to a peak intensity IO of a peak attributed to a bond between the metal element and an oxygen atom is in the range of 0.1 to 0.3 in a radial distribution curve obtained from an extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectrum. | 09-12-2013 |
| 20130224101 | RAW MATERIAL CARBON COMPOSITION FOR NEGATIVE ELECTRODE MATERIAL OF LITHIUM-ION SECONDARY BATTERY - Provided is a raw material carbon composition for a negative electrode material for a lithium-ion secondary battery useful for achieving excellent high-speed charge and discharge characteristics. The raw material carbon composition is obtained by subjecting a stock oil composition to coking treatment, the stock oil composition being obtained by blending a stock oil (1) having a density at 15° C. of from 0.96 to 1.05 g/cm | 08-29-2013 |
