The disclosure features polymorphs of a prodrug dimer of dexamethasone linked at the 21-C and 21′-C carbons via a carbonate-triethylene glycol-carbonate linker. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions and articles comprising said polymorphs, and the use thereof in the treatment of a disease or condition, e.g. via the extended or controlled release of dexamethasone from said articles.

Provided is an anti-counterfeiting composition for anti-counterfeiting fibers, including a carrier, an anti-counterfeiting tracer and a dispersant, wherein the anti-counterfeiting tracer is composed of barium oxide, strontium oxide, aluminum oxide and zinc oxide, and a barium element content, a strontium element content, an aluminum element content, and a zinc element content in the anti-counterfeiting composition is controlled to a fixed feeding mass ratio; in percent by mass, the sum of the barium element content, strontium element content, aluminum element content, and zinc content accounts for 5-50% of the anti-counterfeiting composition; the carrier is a matrix polymer or a bio-derived oil. The anti-counterfeiting composition of the present disclosure can give the anti-counterfeiting fiber advantages of memory tracking properties and identification functions, high anti-counterfeiting capability, and good anti-counterfeiting concealment.

One or more embodiments of the present invention relate to a core-sheath conjugate fiber for artificial hair including a core and a sheath. The core is composed of a polyester-based resin composition containing a polyester-based resin as a main component, and the sheath is composed of a polyamide-based resin composition containing a polyamide-based resin as a main component. A core-to-sheath area ratio of the core to the sheath is 2:8 to 7:3, and both a fiber cross-section and a core cross-section have a flat shape, a major axis of the core cross-section is in a direction that substantially coincides with a direction of a major axis of the fiber cross-section, and an eccentricity ratio of the fiber in a minor axis direction is 5% or more. As a result, fibers for artificial hair having a texture and an appearance that are similar to those of human hair and having favorable curl setting properties are provided.
