Abstract: Provided is a thermoplastic resin composite material or a thermoplastic resin composite material particle that includes cellulose fibers, can be used to obtain a molded article excellent in mechanical properties such as strength, and is so excellent in fluidity during melting as to be excellent in molding processability. A thermoplastic resin composite material including cellulose fibers, a compatibilizer, and a thermoplastic resin, wherein the cellulose fibers substantially include only fibers having a fiber diameter of 1 to 50 ?m and a fiber length of 10 to 400 ?m, a composition ratio by mass of the cellulose fibers to the thermoplastic resin is 10:90 to 80:20, and arbitrary 10 sections of the thermoplastic resin composite material have a standard deviation of a proportion of an area occupied by the cellulose fibers per predetermined area, the standard deviation being 15% or less.

Abstract: A pressure measuring apparatus comprising a diaphragm to which pressure to be measured is applied and a resilient vibrator connected to the diaphragm, which acts to produce a signal based on its natural frequency relative to the pressure, wherein the diaphragm comprises a peripheral circumferential portion, a central fixing portion and a non-planar intermediate portion therebetween, with the central portion being connected to the vibrator and having its edge disposed at a non-perpendicular angle with respect to the vibrator area to which it is connected. The apparatus eliminates adverse influences due to initial distortion, hysteresis of the diaphragm and produces accurate measurements.
