Abstract: Provided is a frame-retardant resin foam which is highly expanded and is satisfactorily flexible so as to conform even to a minute clearance. The resin foam includes a resin and a flame-retardant component, in which the flame-retardant component is a polysiloxane-coated flame retarder. In the resin foam, the polysiloxane-coated flame retarder is preferably a polysiloxane-coated metal hydroxide, and the polysiloxane-coated metal hydroxide is contained preferably in a content of 30 to 60 percent by weight based on the total weight of the resin foam.

Abstract: Provided is a resin foam which is satisfactorily flexible and electrically conductive, can be easily processed into a desired shape, and is usable as an electrically conductive cushioning sealant capable of filling in a minute clearance between densely packaged electronic components. The resin foam has a volume resistivity of 1010 ?·cm or less and a repulsive load at 50% compression of 5 N/cm2 or less. The resin foam preferably has a surface resistivity of 1010 ohms per square or less, preferably has an apparent density of 0.01 to 0.15 g/cm3, and preferably has an expansion ratio of 9 times or more.

Abstract: An optical path rotating device, disposed in front of a linear array laser diode having a plurality of long and narrow and linearly arranged emitters for emitting a group of laser beams in the form of a dotted line, the optical path rotating device being able to convert the laser beams from the emitters into laser beams lined up in the form of ladder rungs by receiving the group of laser beams collimated by being refracted in a direction substantially perpendicular to the direction of the dotted line, rotating the positions of the laser beams from the emitters substantially for a right angle, and emitting the laser beams, and a laser apparatus, which uses the optical path rotating device, for collimating the substantially rung-shaped laser beams into two directions independently, bringing the laser means into focus, thus increasing the density of the laser energy at the focus.
