Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein relate to using cobalt (Co) to fine tune the magnetic properties, such as permeability and magnetic loss, of nickel-zinc ferrites to improve the material performance in electronic applications. The method comprises replacing nickel (Ni) with sufficient Co+2 such that the relaxation peak associated with the Co+2 substitution and the relaxation peak associated with the nickel to zinc (Ni/Zn) ratio are into near coincidence. When the relaxation peaks overlap, the material permeability can be substantially maximized and magnetic loss substantially minimized. The resulting materials are useful and provide superior performance particularly for devices operating at the 13.56 MHz ISM band.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a time-temperature indicating module that causes a spread material whose degree of diffusion changes with temperature change to be absorbed and diffused into a diffusion material through induction of a crack, guides a diffusion direction of the spread material through a guide line printed in a longitudinal direction of the diffusion material and also enables a clear start time point of diffusion to be displayed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the time-temperature indicating module which allows the user to trigger the bursting of the starting member with a simple motion and generate a crack so that the spread material interposed inside spreads via the crack. The present invention also relates to the manufacturing method of the time-temperature indicating module that strengthens a sealed section of the time-temperature indicating module using laminating by heat sealing to prevent the spread material from leaking or flowing out.

Abstract: A pouch battery contains a pouch, an electrode material and a safety protection device. The electrode material is located in the pouch. The safety protection device is configured to generate an action based on a change in gas pressure within the pouch. In this way, even if the pouch battery is abnormal, its internal circuit can be cut off in time to avoid providing power to external devices while being under abnormal conditions.
