Abstract: The thermally conductive composite oxide of the present invention has excellent physical properties, such as high thermal conductivity, water resistance, acid resistance, electric resistance, and electric insulation, required for coating films, films, and articles thereof. Paints or resins including the composite oxide can provide coating films, films, and articles having such properties without treating of a surface, etc. The composite oxide has a spinel structure and contains aluminum as a main metal component and at least one metal other than aluminum, which is magnesium, zinc, calcium, and/or strontium, and has a ratio (b mol)/(a mol) in a range of 0.1 or more and 1.0 or less, where the ratio (b mol)/(a mol) is a number of moles (b) of the metal other than aluminum to that of moles (a) of an aluminum element derived from an alumina-based compound. The thermally conductive composite oxide has Mohs hardness of less than 9.

Abstract: A composite oxide black pigment has characteristics to absorb visible rays and near infrared rays, and is composed of an oxide of main constituent metals including copper, manganese and iron. In a wavelength region of 400 to 1,000 nm, the composite oxide black pigment has a minimum wavelength, at which a transmittance becomes minimum, in a wavelength region of 600 to 800 nm, a molar ratio of manganese/iron is 3/1 to 30/1, and a molar ratio of copper/(manganese+iron) is 1/2 to 1.2/2. Its sole use makes it possible to obtain a transparent vivid bluish, neutral gray color, and also to maximize an absorption in a near infrared region. It is, therefore, excellent in near infrared absorption characteristics.

Abstract: A network management apparatus includes a first storage unit, a second storage unit, and a controller. The first storage unit stores therein communication groups included in the same subnet and information about communication devices belonging to the respective communication groups in association with each other. The second storage unit stores therein for each of the communication devices a port of a relaying device connected to the communication device as a connection destination port. The controller allows the relaying devices to perform communication between the connection destination ports on the basis of the first storage unit and the second storage unit to allow communication only between the communication devices belonging to the same communication group.
