Abstract: A resin composition includes a resin or a resin precursor, and a nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic compound. The nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic compound has a structure represented by the following general formula (1), the following general formula (6) or the following general formula (7): In the general formula (1), A1 and A2 each represent a 6-membered nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic ring together with a nitrogen atom, and the 6-membered nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic ring optionally forms a fused ring; and L represents a single bond, or a linking group derived from an aromatic hydrocarbon ring, an aromatic heterocyclic ring, or an alkyl group. The resin composition includes the nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic compound in a range from 0.10 to 30% by mass relative to the resin or the resin precursor.

Abstract: A granitic stone-like artificial solid material is produced by impregnating a paper sheet having a granitic stone-like fleck pattern with a thermosetting resin to give a paper containing from 25-60% by weight of the resin on a dry basis. The resin impregnated paper sheet is dried and hot-pressed into a laminate comprising a plurality of the sheets. The paper includes (A) from 20-80% by weight of cellulose pulp, (B) from 2-40% by weight of an artificial fiber, (C) from 10-70% by weight of an inorganic filler less than 10 .mu.m in average diameter, and (D) from 1-30% by weight of a fine-grained additive of grains from 10-500 82 m in average diameter, having a color hue different from that of the inorganic filler (C).

Abstract: A granitic stone ( so-called Mikage-ishi)-like artificial solid material produced by impregnating a paper sheet having a granitic pattern with a thermosetting resin to give a paper containing from 25 to 60% by weight of the resin at the dry basis; drying the resin-impregnated paper sheet; and hot-pressing a laminate comprising a plurality of the dried sheets; is claimed, said paper mainly comprising (A) from 20 to 80% by weight of cellulose pulp, (B) from 2 to 40% by weight of an artificial fiber, (C) from 10 to 70% by weight of an inorganic filler less than 10 .mu.m in average diameter, and (D) from 1 to 30% by weight of a fine-grained additive consisting of grains from 10 to 500 .mu.m in average diameter, having a color hue different from that of the inorganic filler (C).

Abstract: An automatically balancing type pen recorder, which is compact in size and is highly reliable in operation, comprises an integral servo unit formed of a single printed circuit board which incorporates therein a pen carriage and an automatic balancing mechanism adapted to move a recording chart in a direction perpendicular to the direction of feed of the chart, in response to the magnitude of a measuring signal.

Abstract: A dew sensor of direct current type and resistance-lowering type with increasing humidity for quick and sharp detection of dewing is provided, which comprises a pair of counterposed electrodes, humidity-sensitive layer of insulating porous metal oxide with a porosity of 20 to 60% provided on and between the counterposed electrodes, and an organic polymer coating layer having a thickness of 0.05 to 2 .mu.m provided on the humidity-sensitive layer.
