  • Patent number: 5997781
    Abstract: Disclosed is a process for the production of an injection-expansion molded, thermoplastic resin product. The process comprises a gas dissolving step, a cooling step, a metering and injection step, and an expansion controlling step. Specifically, a thermoplastic resin is molten in a continuous plasticator (1), supercritical carbon dioxide and/or nitrogen is added as a blowing agent, and the blowing agent and the thermoplastic resin are formed into a mutually-dissolved state. The resultant molten resin composition is cooled within the plasticator while maintaining a pressure equal to or higher than a critical pressure of the blowing agent. The thus-cooled molten resin composition is metered by an injector (7) and is filled in a mold (8). An internal pressure of the mold is lowered beyond the critical pressure of the blowing agent to produce cell nuclei, whereby the cell diameter is controlled. The blowing agent is maintained in a supercritical state up to the metering and injection step.

  • Patent number: 5830393
    Abstract: A process for preparing an expanded product of a thermoplastic resin which includes a gas dissolving step of adding supercritical carbon dioxide and/or nitrogen as an blowing agent to a thermoplastic resin, and melting it in the thermoplastic resin, a cooling step of cooling the resulting molten resin composition under a pressure not less than a critical pressure of the blowing agent, a nuclei forming step of discharging the molten resin composition from a die to lower the pressure to a level not more than the critical pressure, and an expansion controlling step of cooling an expanded product of the thermoplastic resin to a level not more than a glass transition temperature or a crystallization temperature of the resin to control a cell diameter of the expanded product.

  • Patent number: 5206062
    Abstract: A vessel for aerosol is manufactured by a high-nitryl resin which is formed by graft polymerizing a mixture of monomers of a 60 to 90 weight part comprising an unsaturated nitryl compound of at least 60 weight % and an aromatic vinyl compound of at least 5 weight % to diene synthetic rubber of a 1 to 40 weight part containing a conjugated diene monomer of 50 weight % or more, wherein assuming that a content of the unsaturated nitryl compound in the resin grafted to the rubber is set to X weight % in the high-nitryl resin and a content of the unsaturated nitryl compound in the matrix resin is set to Y weight %, the vessel is manufactured by the resin which satisfies the relation of60<X<Y<90between X and Y.

  • Patent number: 4839736
    Abstract: A CRT filter of the present invention consists of a film having a transparent conductive layer and effectively eliminates the static electricity which are generated from the CRT. Further, after the film previously having the transparent conductive layer was continuously manufactured, it can be laminated onto a nonconductive transparent sheet or plate. The transparent conductive film of a stable quality can be cheaply obtained. Thus, the CRT filter having the excellent static electricity eliminating capability and high resolution is manufactured. On the other hand, the CRT filter of the invention has such a shape as to be closely attached onto the front surface of the CRT. Therefore it is also possible to prevent such a phenomenon that the display image in the corner portion of the screen is blurred without deteriorating the resolution. The operator can continue the work without feeling the fatigue of the eyes and the mental pain.

  • Patent number: 4755716
    Abstract: A filter for a CRT screen according to the invention is constituted such that a compound sheet consisting of a conductive net and a transparent resin film is molded so as to be closely attached to the CRT screen, and also to avoid the occurrence of moire fringes, the mesh of the net is selected at a suitable value such that the ratio of the pitch of the scanning lines of the CRT and the pitch of the wires of the net does not fall near simple integers or the inverse numbers thereof. The filter can shut off the electromagnetic waves, electrostatic charge, ultraviolet rays, etc. which are generated from the CRT, without spoiling the resolution of the CRT and can substantially prevent adverse influences on the human body by the CRT. No moire fringes are produced on the screen. A hard coating treatment and a glare-proofing treatment are further performed, so that an illumination lamps or the like in the room are not reflected from the filter surface.
