Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a 2,6-dioxo-3,6-dihydropyrimidine compound that has excellent bactericidal and antimicrobial activity, has excellent safety, and can be industrially favorably synthesized, and an agricultural and horticultural fungicide, a nematicide, and an antifungal agent for use in medicine/animals that contain the compound as an active ingredient.

Abstract: Disclosed is a sanitary ware having not only a practical antivirus property but also a property which allows a pollution to be difficultly attached to, and to be easily removed from the sanitary ware. A sanitary ware comprising a pottery substrate and a glaze layer formed on a surface of the pottery substrate, wherein the glaze layer contains a metal element as an antivirus agent, and the metal element is present in a state of a spinodal phase separation in at least a surface region of the glaze layer, has a practical antivirus property as well as a property which allows a pollution to be difficultly attached to, and to be easily removed from, the sanitary ware.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a wet-area device includes a main part, a first layer, and a second layer. The first layer is provided on an outer surface of the main part. The second layer is provided on an outer surface of the first layer. A hardness of the second layer is greater than a hardness of the first layer. The first layer includes a first unevenness at a side of the outer surface of the first layer. The first unevenness includes a plurality of recesses and a plurality of protrusions. The second layer includes a second unevenness at a side of an outer surface of the second layer. The second unevenness includes a plurality of recesses and a plurality of protrusions. The second unevenness is arranged along the first unevenness. An average height of the first unevenness is less than an average length of the first unevenness.

Abstract: In a power interchange system, an electric power generated by a power generation device is interchanged between power consuming dwellings in a multi-family house. Each power consuming dwelling generates the power by using the power generation device and receives a commercial AC power supply via a shared power supply wiring. The amount of electric power supplied to each power consuming dwelling is managed by a power management device. The power management device manages a surplus power amount of one power consuming dwelling and a required electric power amount of another power consuming dwelling and supplies the surplus power from the former power consuming dwelling to the latter power consuming dwelling via the power supply wiring.

Abstract: Disclosed is a deodorized cloth which is produced by applying a deodorizing agent comprising active carbon and an amine compound in two layers on a cloth, thereby providing a durable deodorizing property against any type of odor to the cloth. Also disclosed is a method for deodorization processing of a cloth. A resin composition comprising active carbon is applied as the first layer, and a resin composition comprising a deodorizing agent comprising an amine compound is applied as the second layer. In the resin composition for use as the first layer, a mixture of a deodorizing agent comprising a metal compound and a flame retardant agent may be used. Preferably, the resin composition for use as the second layer is applied in a dot-like pattern.
