Abstract: A substrate processing method includes step a), step b), step c), step d), step e), and step f). Step a) is a step of providing a substrate that has a pattern where a protection target film is positioned on a bottom part of the pattern. Step b) is a step of laminating a catalyst film on the protection target film. Step c) is a step of forming a protection film that supports the catalyst film from below and covers the protection target film, in the pattern, by a VLS growth method. Step d) is a step of removing the catalyst film. Step e) is a step of applying a predetermined process to a part of the substrate that is different from the pattern in a state where the protection target film is covered by the protection film. Step f) is a step of removing the protection film in the pattern.

Abstract: An object to provide a prestressed concrete that can be widely used for general building members, in which a chemical stress induced by an expansive material and a mechanical stress induced by a continuous fiber reinforcing wire are simultaneously used together, and due to a synergistic effect of the mechanical stress and the chemical stress, the strength is increased, the reduction in weight, reduction in thickness, and suppression of cracking are achieved, and the degree of freedom in design increased. To provide a prestressed concrete characterized in that, in a concrete into which a prestress is introduced, a mechanical stress induced by a tensional material and a chemical stress induced by an expansive material for a concrete are introduced simultaneously into the concrete, the tensional material is a continuous fiber reinforcing wire, the expansive material for a concrete is contained in an amount of 5 to 30 kg/m3, and aluminum oxide contained in an amount of 0.2 to 2.

Abstract: According to the present invention, there is provided a water-repellent protective film-forming chemical liquid containing: a first solvent being at least one kind selected from the group consisting of an ether solvent and a hydrocarbon solvent; a second solvent being a glycol ether; a silylation agent represented by the following general formula [1]; and a base represented by the following general formula [2] and/or the following general formula [3], wherein the concentration of the second solvent in the chemical liquid is 1 to 30 mass %, wherein the concentration of the silylation agent in the chemical liquid is 2 to 15 mass %, wherein the concentration of the base in the chemical liquid is 0.05 to 2 mass %, and wherein the mass ratio of the silylation agent to the base is 4.5 or greater.

Abstract: To provide a water-repellent protective film-forming liquid chemical used in a process of cleaning a wafer by means of a cleaning machine whose liquid contact member contains a vinyl chloride resin. A liquid chemical is used, which includes an alkoxysilane represented by the following general formula [1]; at least one kind selected from the group consisting of a sulfonic acid represented by the following general formula [2], an anhydride of the sulfonic acid, a salt of the sulfonic acid and a sulfonic acid derivative represented by the following general formula [3]; and a diluent solvent containing at least one kind selected from the group consisting of a hydrocarbon, an ether and a thiol.
