  • Patent number: 9889638
    Abstract: An electrical heating bonding device 1 bonds a member M1 to be bonded, which is made of a metal, and a member M2 to be bonded, which is made of a resin. The electrical heating bonding device 1 includes: an upper electrode 11 and a lower electrode 12 which sandwich the member M1 to be bonded, and are electrically conductive with the member M1 to be bonded; a pressurizing unit 20 which applies pressure to a bonding surface between the member M1 to be bonded and the member M2 to be bonded; a temperature sensor 30 which detects a temperature of the member M1 to be bonded; and a control unit 40 which controls the pressurizing unit 20 to apply the pressure to the bonding surface, after the temperature detected by the temperature sensor 30 reaches a predetermined set temperature Ts.

  • Patent number: 5481061
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of solidifying radioactive waste with cement, comprising forming a mixture comprising water, a hydrophilic material and cement substantially non-shrinkable or expansible with respect to volume change upon hardening, mixing said mixture with the radioactive waste, followed by hardening to form a solid body.The present invention enables the formation of a compact solid body having voids, such as capillary voids, of reduced volume, which makes it possible to reduce the leaching rate of hazardous materials. Further, since no shrinkage accompanies hardening, no tensile stress occurs in the cement surrounding minute waste particles within the hardened material, thereby enabling a decrease in the strength of the solid body to be minimized. This in turn enables an increase in the amount of packing of waste. Prior addition of a hydrophilic material enables the cement fluidity before hardening to be maintained even after complete absorption of water by a water absorptive waste.

  • Patent number: 5114622
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of cementing a radioactive waste and a cemented body thereof which are less liable to bring about radioactivity leakage for a long period of time and suitable for disposal of cemented bodies of radioactive wastes in the land.The radioactivity leakage from a cemented body of a radioactive waste occurs due to the presence of the voids within the cemented body, and these voids are formed during hardening of the cemented body or by leaching of a soluble component from the cemented body during immersion in water.In the present invention, in order to minimize the amount of radioactivity leakage, the fraction of fine voids (1 .mu.m or less) is limited to 20% by volume or less. In order to attain such a void fraction, operating conditions, such as water to cement ratio, hardening time of a mixture of a solidifying material with a waste, and addition of an organic polymer, are properly determined.Further, in order to prevent formation of a soluble component, i.e., Ca(OH).sub.

  • Patent number: 5045241
    Abstract: A method of solidifying radioactive wastes comprising the steps of substituting the atmosphere inside a container packed with radioactive waste with a condensable vapor, pouring a matrix material into said container and thereafter condensing said vapor. The condensable vapor can be steam and the matrix material can be alkaline organic material.

  • Patent number: 4395512
    Abstract: The invention provides a novel resin composition based on a polyphenylenesulfide resin which can be molded into shaped articles imparted with remarkably improved impact strength, cracking resistance and heat shock resistance. The inventive resin composition comprises 100 parts by weight of a polyphenylenesulfide resin, from 10 to 300 parts by weight of an inorganic filler and from 1 to 100 parts by weight of a fluorine-containing rubber such as a copolymer of vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene having specified Mooney viscosity.
