Abstract: A magnesium alloy which has excellent tensile strength and elongation at a room temperature, as well as an excellent heat resistance represented by creep resistance is obtained. The magnesium alloy is produced which comprises 3.0% by mass or more and less than 6.0% by mass of Al, 0.10% by mass or more and 0.60% by mass or less of Mn, more than 0.50% by mass and less than 2.0% by mass of Ca, and more than 0.10% by mass and less than 0.40% by mass of Si, and has a balance composed of Mg and unavoidable impurities.

Abstract: The present invention provides an inhaler aid which maximizes utility of an inhaler for the minute powdery curative medicine, and which is used by being attached to the inhaler so that people including a user can objectively ascertain in each case whether an inhalation operation has been correctly performed. In the present invention, the inhaler aid with the reed for the minute powdery curative medicine has a configuration characterized in that the reed is fitted into a right side of a main unit made of silicon rubber, and the inhaler aid is attached to a mouthpiece portion of a conventionally used inhaler for the minute powdery curative medicine such that the aid equipped with the reed is placed between the inhaler for the minute powdery curative medicine and a mouth of a patient, and when an intake operation has been correctly performed, a sound is produced.

Abstract: Silver halide photographic materials with higher sensitivity and less fogging having at least one silver halide emulsion layer over a photographic base or support wherein the emulsion of said emulsion layer substantially contains core/shell-type silver halide grains or core/shell-type monodisperse silver halide grains, core portion of said grain containing silver iodide in a greater amount than that contained in shell portion of said grain and said emulsion is subjected to chemical ripening in the presence of a labile selenium compound, optionally with coexistence of a silver halide solvent, and said emulsion may contain further a specific phenol compound.

Abstract: A method for the formation of a dye image. A silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material, having a support, component layers which are provided on the support and which have a swelling degree below 250 in the alkaline bath and components including an aromatic primary amine color developing agent or a precursor thereof, a nondiffusing yellow coupler, a nondiffusing magenta coupler and a nondiffusing phenolic cyan coupler having a substituted or unsubstituted acylamino group at the second and fifth positions thereof, is color developed in an alkaline bath. The material is then processed in a bleach-fixing bath.

Abstract: A method of forming dye images by processing a photographic material containing imagewise distributed catalyzer substance in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, a coupler and certain aromatic primary amine compounds.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a process for forming a color dye image in an image receiving layer by diffusion transfer from a light sensitive element containing a diffusible dye developer and a silver halide emulsion which has been imagewise exposed. The exposed light sensitive element is subjected to an alkaline processing solution to transfer the dye developer to an image-receiving layer of an image receiving element to produce a color dye image. The alkaline processing solution thus used should contain a compound of the following general formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 represents hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, methoxy or hydroxymethyl and R.sub.2 represents hydrogen, methyl or ethyl.

Abstract: An improved process for forming a dye image in an image receiving layer of a film unit containing a light-sensitive element and an image receiving element by incorporation therein of a compound represented by the formula ##STR1## WHEREIN R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 individually represent lower alkyl, and n is 3.
