  • Publication number: 20230216048
    Abstract: This method achieves lithium cobalt pyrophosphate in which the generation of different phases is suppressed. A powder of a lithium compound, a cobalt compound and a phosphorus compound in amounts based on the composition of lithium cobalt pyrophosphate is mixed while adding water at a prescribed temperature (T1), for example, room temperature, and the substance obtained thereby is further mixed at a higher temperature (T2), for example, 40° C.-60° C. In this way, a precursor of lithium cobalt pyrophosphate is formed that has excellent uniformity of distribution of the lithium component, the cobalt component and the phosphorus component. By firing such a precursor, a lithium cobalt pyrophosphate is obtained in which the generation of different phases is suppressed.

  • Patent number: 11646243
    Abstract: Provided is a heat sink that has a clad structure of a Cu—Mo composite material and a Cu material and has a low coefficient of thermal expansion and high thermal conductivity. A heat sink comprises three or more Cu layers and two or more Cu—Mo composite layers alternately stacked in a thickness direction so that two of the Cu layers are outermost layers on both sides, wherein each of the Cu—Mo composite layers has a thickness section microstructure in which flat Mo phase is dispersed in a Cu matrix. The heat sink has a low coefficient of thermal expansion and also has high thermal conductivity in the thickness direction because the thickness of each of the Cu layers which are the outermost layers is reduced, as compared with a heat sink of a three-layer clad structure having the same thickness and density.

  • Patent number: 7641966
    Abstract: A curable re-release adhesive which, when subjected to a curing reaction caused by irradiation with radiation, shows a sufficient drop of adhesion and causes the adherend to be warped to a minimized extent as developed by the shrinkage force caused by the curing reaction. The re-release adhesive contains a radiation-reactive polymer including a main chain and a plurality of intramolecular side chains, each such side chain having a terminal carbon-carbon double bond, a chain length of 6 or more in terms of number of atoms, and the same or a different number of atoms as each other side chain in the polymer. The release adhesive shows a shrinkage force of 30 MPa or less as developed by a curing reaction upon irradiation. A re-release adhesive sheet is also disclosed, including a substrate film and an adhesive layer containing the re-release adhesive, provided on one surface thereof.
