Abstract: A load fastening member loosening detection device detects loosening of an elongated load-fastening belt for fastening a load, and includes an attaching member attachable to a part of the load-fastening member. The device further includes plural loosening detectors mounted on the attaching member for detecting loosening of the load-fastening member. The plural loosening detectors have different detection sensitivities from each other.

Abstract: A titanium alloy composite material including dispersed carbon fibers coated with a layer containing an element which forms a carbide in reaction with carbon, and the carbide formed thereby, in crystal grains of the titanium alloy. The element which forms a carbide in reaction with carbon is preferably at least one of silicon (Si), chromium (Cr), titanium (Ti), vanadium (V), tantalum (Ta), molybdenum (Mo), zirconium (Zr), boron (B), and calcium (Ca). The carbon fibers are preferably carbon nanotubes, vapor-grown carbon fibers, or a mixture thereof. The titanium alloy composite material has excellent mechanical strength, such as tensile strength, Young's modulus, toughness, and hardness.
Abstract: A method of producing a titanium alloy composite material comprises mixing carbon fibers and a powder of an element which forms a carbide in reaction with carbon, subliming the element under high temperature vacuum, and coating the carbon fibers with a layer containing the element and the carbide to produce coated carbon fibers. The method further comprises mixing the coated carbon fibers and titanium alloy powder to form a mixture, and applying a mechanical impact force to the mixture to fix the carbon fibers on the surface of the titanium alloy powder to obtain a carbon fiber-fixed titanium alloy powder. The method further comprises sintering the carbon fiber-fixed titanium alloy powder to form a sintered body and plastic working the sintered body to disperse the carbon fibers in crystal grains of the titanium alloy.

Abstract: An electric field electron discharge surge absorbing element includes a first substrate member having an electron discharge portion on which a plurality of emitters are formed, and a second substrate member having a surface on which no emitters are formed. The surface and the electron emitter portion face each other, separated at a prescribed distance by a frame member. A vacuum is formed in the envelope between the substrate members and the frame member. External electrode layers are formed on the outer surfaces of each substrate member. The emitter cones may be etched from a semiconductor material, or may be diamond crystals deposited in place.

Abstract: Herein disclosed are a communication disruptant for controlling Pandemis heparana which is a leaf roller of an apple pest in the world. The communication disruptant comprises (Z)-11-tetradecenyl acetate as active ingredient, and a content of its geometrical isomer, (E)-11-tetradecenyl acetate, should be not more than 1% on the basis of the weight of the active ingredient. Because the present invention indicates that (E)-11-tetradecenyl acetate is an inhibitor of communication disruption effect of the active ingredient. Moreover, the present invention also indicates that (Z)-11-tetradecenol show synergistic effect to the active ingredient, when the alcohol content is not more than 5% on the basis of the weight of the active ingredient.

Abstract: A method of enhancing naturally developed color of an anodic oxidation coat on Al or Al alloy wherein the coat is formed by an electrolysis employing a warmed electrolyte containing at least sulfuric acid and an electric current of which the polarity is periodically reversed to be negative for a period less than 50% of each cycle while being applied to Al or Al alloy dipped in the electrolyte as anode for 20 to 40 minutes and the thus coated Al or Al alloy is subjected to a heat treatment in a boiling sealing liquid or a boiling metallic salt solution for 20 minutes. Preferably, the electrolysis is carried out for most of the electrolysis time with the current reversed for a small period of about 5% each cycle and during the terminating stage with the current reversed for a larger period of 30 to 35% each cycle. A sulfur compound is accumulated in the coat during such electrolysis and is combined with an added alloy element of the Al alloy during the heat treatment to further develop the color of the coat.
