  • Publication number: 20130309461
    Abstract: The present invention provides an electrostatic adsorbable sheet that can attach and display a printed material as it is on an object to be attached, as a poster, an advertisement or the like, has a high electrostatic adsorbability during display use, can be used for display over a long period of time with sufficient durability of the electrostatic adsorbability, has electrostatic adsorbability that is hardly affected by humidity, and can be easily peeled away after display use. In the electrostatic adsorbable sheet, since the electrostatic adsorbability is not exhibited externally before display use, troubles such as blocking of sheets themselves and attachment to a roll particularly in a printing step hardly occur, handlability is good, and the adhesiveness of ink is excellent, so that the sheet is compatible with a variety of printing methods.

  • Publication number: 20130216781
    Abstract: Disclosed is a large-sized ceramic plate obtained by an extrusion molding method wherein the warpage of the plate is suppressed, and thus, a texture can be formed thereon without a grinding work after baking. Provided is a large-sized ceramic plate characterized in that a glaze layer is formed on the surface of a ceramic substrate in accordance with need; the warpage of the ceramic substrate is 1.5 mm or less; and the ceramic substrate is obtained by extrusion molding a ceramic raw material added with a needle-shaped crystallized mineral to produce a cylindrical molded body, cutting and opening the cylindrical molded body to spread out in the form of a plate, rolling the plate with a flattening roller to form a raw molded body, and thereafter, baking the raw molded body.

  • Patent number: 8182902
    Abstract: A labeled in-mold shaped article in which an in-mold label having a thermoplastic resin-containing substrate layer and a heat-seal layer that contains a heat-seal resin and a water-soluble binder is stuck to a shaped article and in which the in-mold label does not peel off from the shaped article even when the labeled in-mold shaped article is dipped in water at 40° C. for 4 days. The labeled in-mold shaped article satisfies both label adhesiveness and delabelability.

  • Publication number: 20070198924
    Abstract: In comparison to unnecessary page generation of the prior art, the page generation time according to the current invention is substantially reduced, and the generated page is efficiently accessed. Since in response to at least one of a predetermined set of update events, a page is dynamically generated in advance of a user page request and the dynamically generated page is stored, the current invention allows the efficient page access. The use of the prior art technologies such as proxy servers in combination further improves the cost of transmission of the page to the user according to the current invention.
