Also disclosed is a fluororesin sheet including the fluororesin composition, a laminate including a copper foil layer and a layer including the fluororesin composition and a substrate for circuits including a copper foil layer and a layer including the fluororesin composition.

Abstract: A pulsating vibration air generation apparatus capable of sharply and quickly controlling air flow in turning on and off operation, thereby generating a pulsating vibration air with sharp and hardly attenuated peak and valley, and capable of operation without occurrence of so much mechanical vibration. The pulsating vibration air generation apparatus is comprised of a main body having a tubular hollow space R2 with which two air communication ports are associated, and a rotary body situated for rotation in the tubular hollow space R2 and which has a peripheral side surface S4c so as to slide on the inner surface S2c forming the tubular hollow space R2.

Abstract: The present invention provides a tablet which comprises a water-absorbent amino acid and a coating agent which is soluble in ethanol and hardly soluble in water. The tablet of the present invention is useful as amino acid preparations for sports, dieting, or pharmaceuticals, and also useful as nutritional supplements, pharmaceuticals and the like in order to supply nutritious of amino acids effective to human health maintenance, or enhance physiological activity of human tissues.

Abstract: The present invention provides a chewable tablet having an improved oral disintegration property, which is easily chewed and capable of containing a large amount of an amino acid depending on need, more specifically, a chewable tablet comprising an amino acid and an oral disintegration promoting agent.

Abstract: A powder concentration measuring apparatus comprising a pair of purge gas introducing paths being provided across a material measuring path which introduces a powder material pneumatically transported, a pair of transparent windows being provided so that said material measuring path is viewable through said pair of purge gas introducing paths at the one of the transparent windows, and the light receiving device being provided at the other of the transparent windows, and a powder concentration operation and control means, wherein the control means calculates a powder concentration depending on the light amount received by the light receiving device when a light beam is projected into the material measuring path from the light projecting device.
