  • Patent number: 9493361
    Abstract: Skeleton nanoparticles and method of forming the same. The skeleton nanoparticles comprise silica shells. Each of the silica shells has a shape of a cubic frame formed of six faces as a whole. The cubic frame is hollow inside and pores are formed between quadrilateral silica frames on respective faces of the cubic frame. The method comprising: coating an organic acid on surfaces of calcium carbonate particles; dispersing the organic acid-coated calcium carbonate particles in an organic solvent that dissolves a part of the organic acid in the organic acid-coated calcium carbonate particles, and further mixing a silicon alkoxide and a base catalyst to form silica-forming particles by forming the silica shell along an edge of the calcium carbonate particles; and dissolving the calcium carbonate at an inside of the silica-forming particles by an acid treatment.

  • Patent number: 6943286
    Abstract: An electromagnetic wave absorber comprises an electromagnetic wave absorber molded element, plate-shaped sintered ferrite, and a metal plate. The molded element incorporates a tile-shaped base portion and a wedge-shaped apex portion disposed on the base portion. The molded element is formed by injecting slurry into a mold, the slurry being obtained through mixing a molding material for the wave absorber with water, and curing the slurry. The molding material includes a magnetic material, an inorganic fiber and an inorganic binder. When these ingredients are mixed with water, the molding material first exhibits fluidity and then a curing reaction in a temperature range of 1 to 40° C.

  • Patent number: 6259394
    Abstract: An electrically conductive member constituted by at least one member of the group consisting of carbon black, graphite and carbon fiber, a powdered or granulated material of an inorganic hollow body and inorganic reinforcing fiber are bonded to one another by an inorganic adhesive agent to thereby form an electric wave absorber. The electric wave absorber exhibits excellent electric wave absorbing power because of both the electrically conductive member and the powdered or granulated material of the inorganic hollow body which are contained in the electric wave absorber. The electric wave absorber has excellent mechanical strength because of the inorganic reinforcing fiber which is contained in the electric wave absorber. The electric wave absorber exhibits excellent nonflammable characteristic because of both the powdered or granulated material of the inorganic hollow body and the inorganic reinforcing fiber which are contained in the electric wave absorber.

  • Patent number: 5679433
    Abstract: A noncombsutible material is produced by making paper from a slurry essentially consisting of a sepiolite as a main material, an inorganic fiber or a glass fiber as a reinforcer, a first binder composed of PAA (polyacrylamide) as a thermoplastic resin, and a second binder composed of EPA (polyamide-polyamine-epichlorohydrine) as a thermosetting resin. The noncombustible material is given incombustibility and water resistance by the main material of the sepiolite, so that its productivity is improved thereby enabling a paper making of low costs.
