(JP2016021594W) [Problem] To provide a resist underlayer film for lithography, which has high solubility in a resist solvent (a solvent used in lithography) for developing good film formability by coating and a dry etching rate selectivity lower than that of the resist. [Solution] A resist underlayer film forming composition, which contains a novolac resin containing a structure (C) that is obtained by a reaction between an aromatic ring of an aromatic compound (A) and a hydroxy group-containing aromatic methylol compound (B). The aromatic compound (A) is a component for constituting the structure (C) that is contained in the novolac resin. The hydroxy group-containing aromatic methylol compound (B) is represented by formula (1). The hydroxy group-containing aromatic methylol compound (B) is 2-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol or 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxymethyl phenol. (From WO2016021594 A1)

(KR20170086017) A filtration system can comprise a pressure pump configured to apply a pressure on fluid flowing between a first chamber and a second chamber. The filtration system can also comprise a flow sensor configured to determine at least one parameter associated with fluid flowing across a membrane deposited between the first chamber and a second chamber. The filtration system can comprise a pressure sensor configured to determine pressure readings of the fluid flowing from the first chamber to the second chamber. The filtration system can comprise a filtration management system configured to cause the pressure pump to apply a constant pressure on fluid flowing across the membrane for a first predetermined time based on the pressure reading. The filtration management system can be configured to cause the pressure pump to reverse the fluid flow across the membrane based on the at least one parameter for a second predetermined time.
