  • Patent number: 6475328
    Abstract: To present printed wiring boards and other electronic components having excellent cockroach repelling performance even after solder reflow or solder flow. A conductive layer having a mounting land is provided on a insulating layer as a substrate, a solder resist is applied to cover the conductive layer excluding the mounting land, and an electronic component material containing a cockroach repellent is applied on the solder resist. This electronic component material is a paste containing a resin curable by crosslinking, a cockroach repellent, and a filler such as silica or talc, and by crosslinking and curing the resin by chemical reaction, a dried cockroach repelling layer is exposed and formed on the surface of the printed wiring board.

  • Patent number: 5645846
    Abstract: An antiviral composition comprising: a thiosulfate salt and at least one of thiosulfate complex salt of a metal and a porous particulate carrier; said metal being at least one selected from the group consisting of silver, copper and zinc: said salts being carried on said porous particulate carrier. It is applicable to a wide range of living environment such as medical instruments and appliances, hygienic implements as well as kitchen utensils, and also demonstrates an antibacterial activity in addition to the antiviral activity. The composition releases its salts slowly to the environment and the antiviral and antibacterial activities of said composition lasts for a long period of time. A method for preparing said composition as well as an antiviral disinfection method and a virucidal disinfection fluid using said composition are also disclosed.
