Abstract: The present invention provides a nanofiber manufacturing method and a nanofiber manufacturing device. A solution 25 in which a polymer is dissolved in a solvent is supplied from a distal end of a nozzle 16 to form a Taylor cone 44 at a distal end opening 16b. By applying a voltage between the solution 25 and a collector 50 using a power supply portion 62, an electrospinning jet 45 is sprayed from the Taylor cone 44 to the collector 50. At the start or stop of electrospinning, a blocking member 48 is inserted into a spraying area 42 of the electrospinning jet 45 such that an unstable electrospinning jet or unstable nanofibers are received. A product is not manufactured from an unstable electrospinning jet formed at the start or stop of electrospinning, and the manufacturing of a defective product is prevented.

Abstract: A void-containing resin molded product consisting of a polymer having crystallinity, wherein the void-containing resin molded product has elongated voids whose longitudinal directions are aligned in one direction, wherein the elongated voids satisfy the expression h(avg)>T/100, where h(avg) denotes an arithmetic average of h(i)s which each denote a distance from a surface of the void-containing resin molded product to a center of each of 10 voids whose centers are closer to the surface of the void-containing resin molded product than are centers of any other voids in a cross-section of the void-containing resin molded product that is perpendicular to a direction in which the voids are aligned, the 10 voids being selected from voids in a region defined by one straight line which is parallel to a thickness direction of the void-containing resin molded product and another straight line which is parallel to and distant by 20×T from the one straight line; and T denotes an arithmetic average thickness of the cro

Abstract: Described is a method for producing a void-containing resin molded product which enables producing a void-containing resin molded product having a high color saturation and an appearance excellent in brightness and heat insulation properties by stretching polymer-molded product containing a single crystalline polymer, and a void-containing resin molded product obtained by the production method. A first aspect of the method for producing a void-containing resin molded product is a method for producing a void-containing resin molded product, the method including: stretching a polymer-molded product containing a single crystalline polymer in at least one axial direction, wherein a yield stress (A) and a stress (L30) at an elongation of 30% in a stress-strain curve of the polymer-molded product in the stretching in the one axial direction satisfy Relationship (I): L30/A<0.

Abstract: The present invention provides a void-containing resin molded product having high heat insulation properties and a method for producing such a molded product. The present invention also provides an image-receiving film or sheet that includes the void-containing resin molded product to provide favorable printing characteristics and is intended for use in a sublimation transfer recording material or a thermal transfer recording material. The void-containing resin molded product consists of a crystalline polymer and has voids therein, wherein the resin molded product has a ratio X/Y of 0.27 or less, where X denotes a thermal conductivity (in W/mK) of the void-containing resin molded product, and Y denotes a thermal conductivity (in W/mK) of a void-free polymer molded product having the same thickness as the void-containing resin molded product and formed of the same crystalline polymer that forms the void-containing resin molded product.
