Abstract: A two-wheel vehicle tire has a tread portion. The tread portion includes a plurality of grooves. The grooves include crown grooves arranged on a tire equator, middle grooves, and shoulder grooves. Each of the crown grooves is bent in a V-shape so as to be convex to one side in a tire circumferential direction. Each of the grooves has the shortest distance from 5% to 30% of a tread development half width between another one of the grooves immediately adjacent to the each of the grooves.

Abstract: A tyre includes a crown main groove formed by unit patterns. Each of the unit patterns includes a first inclined element, a second inclined element, a first bent element, and a second bent element. The first inclined element extends obliquely. The second inclined element extends obliquely in a direction opposite to the first inclined element.

The first bent element is bent so as to be convex toward the first tread edge without having a component extending in parallel with the tyre circumferential direction. The second bent element is bent so as to be convex toward the second tread edge without having the component extending in parallel with the tyre circumferential direction.

Abstract: A motorcycle tire comprises a pair of bead portions each with a bead core therein and a bead bottom surface. In a non-rim assembled state in which the bead portions are held such that the axial distance between the axially outer surfaces of the bead portions matches the rim width of a regular rim, a conditional expression: 0.99 =< Dc/(Dr+2T) =< 1.00, is satisfied, wherein “Dc” is the inner diameter of the bead core at the axial center position of the bead core, “Dr” is the rim diameter of the regular rim, and “T” is the radial distance from the inner surface of the bead core to the bead bottom surface at the axial center position.

Abstract: A tire includes a tread reinforcing layer. The tread reinforcing layer includes a ply reinforcing portion in which belt-shaped plies are wound. The ply reinforcing portion includes a lattice-shaped portion in which a plurality of the first inclined portions and a plurality of the second inclined portions intersect with each other such that side edges of the first inclined portions and side edges of the second inclined portions do not contact with each other so as to have space portions between them. Each of the first inclined portions and the second inclined portions has an angle with respect to a tire circumferential direction continuously decreased from an inner side in a tire axial direction to an outer side in the tire axial direction.

Abstract: A motorcycle tire includes a pair of bead portions each with a bead core therein, the pair of bead portions including a pair of rim contact surfaces that comes into contact with a standard wheel rim under a standard-rim mounted condition. Each rim contact surface includes a bead bottom surface, a bead side surface, and a bead heel surface connecting the bead bottom surface and the bead side surface. Under a virtual-rim mounted condition, in at least one of the pair of bead portions, a diameter of an intersection of a virtual first straight line expanded outwardly in the tire axial direction from the bead bottom surface and a virtual second straight line expanded inwardly in the radial direction from the bead side surface is 99.0% to 99.6% of a rim diameter of the standard wheel rim.

Abstract: A cell scaffold material comprising a copolymer having a polylactic acid structural unit (A) and a polycarbonate structural unit (B). The polycarbonate structural unit (B) may include at least one unit having an alkoxyalkyloxycarbonyl group as a substituent. Also provided is a cell culture support comprising this cell scaffold material and a substrate.

Abstract: A biodegradable cationic polymer is disclosed, comprising first repeat units derived from a first cyclic carbonyl monomer by ring-opening polymerization, wherein more than 0% of the first repeat units comprise a side chain moiety comprising a quaternary amine group; a subunit derived from a monomeric diol initiator for the ring-opening polymerization; and an optional endcap group. The biodegradable cationic polymers have low cytotoxicity and form complexes with biologically active materials useful in gene therapeutics and drug delivery.

Abstract: A motorcycle tire is provided in the tread portion with first inclined main grooves and second inclined main grooves which are arranged alternately in the tire circumferential direction while inclining in opposite directions. The first inclined main grooves extend from a first tread edge toward a second tread edge across the tire equator and terminate at the respective second inclined main grooves which extend from the second tread edge toward the first tread edge across the tire equator and terminate at the respective first inclined main grooves which are respectively next to the above-said first inclined main grooves. A first region, which is delimited by the first tread edge, two of the first inclined main grooves and one of the second inclined main grooves, is provided with blocks whose ground contacting top surfaces have vertices each having an angle of not less than 45 degrees.
