  • Patent number: 9238872
    Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode for electrolytic synthesis of a fluorine compound, including: an electrode substrate having at least a surface thereof formed of a conductive carbon material; a conducting diamond layer formed on a part of the surface of the electrode substrate; and a metal fluoride-containing coating layer formed on an exposed part of the electrode substrate that is uncovered by the conducting diamond layer. It is possible for the electrolytic synthesis electrode to limit the growth of a graphite fluoride layer on the electrode surface, prevent decrease in effective electrolysis area and allow stable electrolysis in an electrolytic bath of a hydrogen fluoride-containing molten salt.

  • Publication number: 20100238556
    Abstract: [Problem] In case of producing a plastic film-inserted laminated glass by forming an infrared rays reflection functioning film on a transparent plastic film and then by interposing the plastic film between intermediate films, an adhesion between the plastic film and the intermediate film is not good thereby causing such a problem that a peeling occurs upon collision. [Solving Means] A silane coupling film is formed on a surface where no infrared rays reflection film is formed, of a plastic film, and a hard coat layer is formed between the plastic film and the infrared rays reflection film.

  • Patent number: 6689256
    Abstract: A frequency selective plate which is produced by coating an Ag layer dispersed with Ag particles on a transparent substrate. The Ag layer is formed by depositing an Ag continuous layer on the substrate and heating the Ag continuous layer to varying into Ag particles or by depositing an Ag continuous layer on the heated substrate. The frequency selective plate performs high transparency of radio waves and visible rays while sufficiently reflecting near-infrared rays of solar radiation.
