  • Patent number: 11945962
    Abstract: The present invention provides a cationic electrodeposition coating composition that has both good anti-cissing property and good coating film appearance. This is a cationic electrodeposition coating composition containing a silicone compound (A) having an SP value of more than 10.5 and 15.0 or less, and a film forming resin (B), wherein the silicone compound (A) is contained in an amount of 0.01 parts by mass or more and 4.5 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the resin solid content of the film forming resin (B). For example, the silicone compound (A) is at least one species selected from the group consisting of a polyether modified silicone compound (A-1), a polyester modified silicone compound (A-2), and a polyacrylic modified silicone compound (A-3).

  • Publication number: 20240101235
    Abstract: Provided with a weight release device capable of being operated in deep sea same as the conventional weight release device without accompanying a mechanical operation at all to avoid troubles of mechanical operation occurred in the conventional weight release device. The weight release device includes a housing fixed to the underwater observation device; a thread made of thermoplastic resin; electric heater portions; a weight support plate; a locking member of the thread made of the thermoplastic resin; and a ring for hanging the weight. The thread made of the thermoplastic resin is arranged from a start point housed in the housing, arranged to pass through the first electric heater portion, locked to the locking member of the thread made of the thermoplastic resin, arranged to pass through the second electric heater portion housed in the housing, and returned to an end point housed in the housing. The ring for hanging the weight is fixed to a lower surface of the weight support plate.

  • Patent number: 10663834
    Abstract: A constitution of the display device of the invention is shown in the following. The display device includes a pixel unit including TFTs of which the active layer contains an organic semiconductor material for forming channel portions in the opening portions in an insulating layer arranged to meet the gate electrodes. The pixel unit further includes a contrast media formed on the electrodes connected to the TFTs for changing the reflectivity upon the application of an electric field, or microcapsules containing electrically charged particles that change the reflectivity upon the application of an electric field. The pixel unit is sandwiched by plastic substrates, and barrier layers including an inorganic insulating material are provided between the plastic substrates and the pixel unit. The purpose of the present invention is to supply display devices which are excellent in productivity, light in weight and flexible.

  • Publication number: 20190355303
    Abstract: In a display element such as an organic EL element, deterioration progresses due to light emission, and emission luminance is lowered even if the same voltage is applied to the display element. Therefore, use over time causes variations in luminance of each pixel, thereby a so-called “image burn-in” phenomenon occurs. Given this factor, the invention provides a display device which can reduce the difference in deterioration of a display element in each pixel and suppress variations in light emission of a display element in a pixel. It is prevented that only a specific pixel has a long accumulated lighting time. For that purpose, a gray scale of a display pattern is changed to prevent the difference in deterioration of display element in pixels from increasing. Alternatively, a specific display pattern is prevented from being fixedly displayed in a specific region.
