Abstract: Polyethylene resin foamed particles are obtained by foaming polyethylene resin particles containing a base resin. The base resin is a linear polyethylene resin. The polyethylene resin particles have a storage elastic modulus of 900 Pa or more and 5000 Pa or less at an angular frequency of 1 rad/second and a storage elastic modulus of 100000 Pa or less at an angular frequency of 100 rad/second, in a dynamic viscoelasticity measurement at 190° C. A differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curve obtained by heating the polyethylene resin foamed particles using a differential scanning calorimeter at a temperature rising speed of 10° C./minute within a range of 20° C. to 220° C. has two melting peaks of a melting peak on a low temperature side and a melting peak on a high temperature side.

Abstract: Polypropylene-based resin expanded particles include polypropylene-based resin particles. The polypropylene-based resin particles include a base resin that is a polypropylene-based resin mixture, wherein 100 parts by weight of the polypropylene-based resin mixture consists of 92.0 to 98.5 parts by weight of a polypropylene-based resin having a melting point of 130° C. to 155° C., and 1.5 to 8.0 parts by weight a polypropylene-based wax having a melting point of 100° C. or less. The polypropylene-based wax is a copolymer of propylene and one or more ?-olefins other than propylene.

Abstract: Polyolefin-based resin pre-expanded particles include a polyolefin-based resin composition including a polyolefin-based resin, a sterically hindered amine ether flame retardant expressed by the general formula (1): R1NHCH2CH2CH2NR2CH2CH2NR3CH2CH2CH2NHR4 (1), and a phosphoric ester. The polyolefin-based resin pre-expanded particles are flame retardant polyolefin-based resin pre-expanded particles that can have good in-mold expansion moldability and exhibit excellent flame resistance compared to the conventional pre-expanded particles even when molded into a sample having a higher density or a larger thickness without using a halogen flame retardant, and that do not generate harmful gas during burning.

Abstract: Polyethylene-based resin foamed particles are obtained having good productivity, achieve an increase in foaming ratio, and in which a miniaturization of the average cell diameter is suppressed. A polyethylene-based resin in-mold-foam-molded body using the foamed particles is reduced in yellowing of the surface of the molded body and has favorable surface beauty (surface smoothness). The foamed particles contain, as a base resin, a polyethylene-based resin composition containing 1000 ppm or more and 4000 ppm or less in total of one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of antioxidants, metal stearates, and inorganic substances and 50 ppm or more and 20000 ppm or less of hydrophilic compounds, in which the Z average molecular weight is 30×104 or more and 100×104 or less, the surface layer film thickness is 11 ?m or more and 120 ?m or less, and the open-cell ratio is 12% or less.

Abstract: Expanded polyethylene resin particles include an antistatic agent and a base resin. The expanded polyethylene resin particles are obtained by expanding polyethylene resin particles including the antistatic agent and the base resin, the polyethylene resin particles having a storage modulus of elasticity of 900 to 5000 Pa at an angular frequency of 1 rad/sec in dynamic viscoelastic behavior measurement at 190° C. and a storage modulus of elasticity of 100000 Pa or less at an angular frequency of 100 rad/sec in dynamic viscoelastic behavior measurement at 190° C. The expanded polyethylene resin particles have a low temperature side melting peak and a high temperature side melting peak on a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curve obtained when a temperature of the expanded polyethylene resin particles is increased from 20° C. to 220° C. at a heating rate of 10° C./min.

Abstract: Provided are pre-expanded polypropylene resin particles having a dimensional expansion coefficient of 1.5% or more determined with a thermomechanical analyzer at a constant compressive load of 1 mg during heating from 30° C. to 100° C. at a temperature increase rate of 10° C./min. Using the pre-expanded polypropylene resin particles can yield an in-mold foam molded product of polypropylene resin having few wrinkles and small dimensional shrinkage without pretreatment such as internal pressure application or compression packing during packing the pre-expanded particles in a mold for in-mold foam molding.

Abstract: An apparatus for transporting a package doffed by a spinning frame to a winder. Packages are independently transported on a package supply conveyor by means of a peg tray which includes a guide member for securing thereto an end of a yarn extracted from the package. The package carrying tray is delivered to a frictionless inclined pathway and proceeds under its own weight to a winding position adjacent a winding unit.
