A drug delivery device such as an oral dosage form (ODF) with a toxic or potent core encapsulated by a non-toxic region. The non-toxic region may be a region including multiple layers, coatings, shells, and combinations thereof, which provides protection to and isolation from the toxic or potent core. The drug in the toxic or potent core is incorporated into the dosage form via, for example, three-dimensional printing, as a solution, solubilization or suspension of solid particles in liquid, rather than by the more conventional handling and compressing of dry powder. This minimizes the likelihood of creating airborne particles of the toxic drug during manufacturing, hence controlling and minimizing the exposure of manufacturing personnel to the hazardous substance. Wet dispensing of the toxic or potent drug further provides greater bioavailability of the drug to the patient.

The present invention relates to a shaped solid acid catalyst for the isomerization of hydrocarbons and so on, which has a high activity and is excellent in strength and easily handleable, and processes for the preparation thereof. This catalyst comprises a support comprising portions of zirconia having a tetragonal form and portions of alumina, and a sulfureous component and, if necessary, a Group 8, 9 or 10 metal component both being supported on the support, and has a specific surface area of 150 m2 / g or above. The catalyst can be prepared by kneading aluminum hydroxide, zirconium hydroxide and a sulfureous compound, shaping the kneaded mixture, calcining the shaped material at such a temperature as to form tetragonal zirconia and, if necessary, supporting a Group 8, 9 or 10 metal component on the calcined material and calcining the resulting molding at 300 to 700° C.

Conductive catalytic particles which are composed of a conductive powder and a catalytic material adhering to the surface thereof. The catalytic material is an alloy of a noble metal material with an additive material which is thermally solid-insoluble in said noble metal material, or an alloy of MI and MII (where MI denotes at least one species selected from noble metal elements, and MII denotes at least one specifies selected from Fe, Co, Ni, Cr, Al, Cu, Hf, Zr, Ti, V, Nb, Ta, W, Ga, Sn, Ge, Si, Re, Os, Pb, Bi, Sb, Mo, Mn, O, N, C, Zn, In, and rare earth elements). The conductive catalytic particles are produced by causing the noble metal material and the additive material or MI and MII to adhere at the same time to the surface of a conductive powder by physical vapor deposition. The conductive catalytic particles are not liable to sintering and are used for a gas-diffusing catalytic electrode and an electrochemical device provided therewith.

Disclosed are: a metal oxide film, which is formed by a coating method that is one of the methods for producing a metal oxide film, and which has a good balance between excellent transparency and high electrical conductivity, while having excellent film strength; and a method for producing the metal oxide film. Specifically disclosed is a method for producing a metal oxide film, which comprises: a coating step wherein a coating film is formed on a substrate using a metal oxide film-forming coating liquid that contains various organic metal compounds; a drying step wherein the coating film is changed into a dry coating film; and a heating step wherein an inorganic film is formed from the dry coating film. The method for producing a metal oxide film is characterized in that in the heating step, the dry coating film, which is mainly composed of the various organic metal compounds, is heated to a temperature at which at least mineralization of organic metal compound components occurs or higher in an oxygen-containing atmosphere at a temperature not higher than the temperature that is lower by 10 DEG C than the dew point, so that the organic components in the dry coating film are removed by thermal decomposition or combustion, or by thermal decomposition and combustion, thereby forming a metal oxide fine particle layer which is densely filled with metal oxide fine particles that are mainly composed of various metal oxides.

Low dosage naphthenate inhibitors, such as a surfactant or hydrotrope, delivered into production fluids for contact with mixtures of oil and water, such as in a hydrocarbon producing formation, production equipment, or processing systems. Inhibitor compounds such as monophosphate esters and diphosphate esters exhibit surface-active properties that cause the inhibitors to self-associate at oil-water interfaces and inhibit interactions between organic acids in the oil with cations or cation complexes in the water. These compounds also inhibit aggregation of organic acid carboxylate salts that form when pH and pressure conditions are amenable to organic acid ionization. Preferred inhibitors do not form emulsions due to the formation of unstable mixed interface structures that result in coalescence of dispersed droplets. Naphthenate inhibitor compound dosages of less than 100 ppm can effectively inhibit naphthenate salts or other organic acid salts that can form precipitates or emulsions during crude oil production or processing.
