  • Publication number: 20240150563
    Abstract: A resin composition for a laminated glass interlayer film or a solar cell encapsulant contains an ethylene-unsaturated ester copolymer (A) and a crosslinking agent (B). When the torque of the resin composition is measured over time at 130° C. using a moving die rheometer, the torque value 60 minutes after the start of measurement is defined as T100 [dN·m], the torque value of 10% of T100 is defined as T10, the torque value of 50% of T100 is defined as T50, the minimum torque value during measurement is defined as Tmin, the time to reach T10 from the start of measurement is defined as X [min], and the time to reach T50 from the start of measurement is defined as Y [min], the crosslinking rate represented by (T50?T10)/(Y?X) (where T50=(100?Tmin)×0.5+Tmin, T10=(T100?Tmin)×0.1+Tmin) exceeds 0.01 dN·m/min and 0.25 dN·m/min or less.

  • Patent number: 11840092
    Abstract: A liquid ejection head includes an ejection-port formed member including liquid ejection ports, a substrate including liquid supply ports for supplying liquid to the ejection ports and a partition between the liquid supply ports, and a substrate supporting member. The liquid supply ports extend along the longitudinal direction of the substrate when viewed from a position facing the main surface of the substrate. The liquid supply ports are arrayed along the lateral direction of the substrate when viewed from the position facing the main surface. The partition includes a non-contact portion that is not in contact with the supporting member and a contact portion that is in contact with the supporting member. Of the liquid supply ports, adjacent liquid supply ports communicate with each other in the lateral direction through a gap between the non-contact portion and the supporting member, and liquid flows through the gap.

  • Publication number: 20230347654
    Abstract: A liquid discharge head includes i) a recording-element substrate configured to discharge a liquid, ii) a cuboid-like liquid tank configured to support the recording-element substrate and to store the liquid to be discharged from the recording-element substrate, and iii) an absorbent accommodated in a compressed state in the liquid tank and configured to absorb and hold the liquid. In the liquid discharge head, multiple projections are formed on a bottom of the liquid tank. In addition, as viewed in plan in a direction orthogonal to the bottom, the projections are disposed so as to surround or straddle an injection position at which the liquid is injected into the absorbent using an injection needle.
