  • Publication number: 20100239864
    Abstract: Polymer coated ferromagnetic particles could be obtained giving a solution to a problem of difficulty in dispersing ferromagnetic fine particles to a level of monodispersion because of their properties apt to form aggregates. Providing hydrophilic character to hydrophobic ferromagnetic particles obtained by adsorbing hydrophobizing agent to hydrophilic ferromagnetic particles, and dispersed using nonionic surface activating agent suppressing ionic strength increase of the particles. Monomer liquid was emulsified using nonionic surface activating agent and ionic surface activating agent. Mixing the dispersion liquid of ferromagnetic particles and the monomer emulsion were mixed and emulsion polymerization was conducted.

  • Patent number: 7042188
    Abstract: A servo motor with a built-in drive circuit is provided in which, when power is off, positional data including multiple-rotation counting values is stored in a nonvolatile memory to thereby eliminate battery back-up, and in which the CPU of a drive control circuit portion is in charge of the multiple-rotation counting itself to thereby eliminate the circuit for multiple-rotation counting. Due to a reduction in the number of lines involved and an elimination of battery back-up, a reduction in size is achieved. The servo motor with a built-in drive circuit includes an absolute encoder for detecting rotation of a servo motor portion and an electromagnetic mechanical brake, in which, when the power is off, the positional data at that time is stored in a nonvolatile memory.
