  • Publication number: 20180126714
    Abstract: A polyester resin composition exhibits a reduced amount of production of the acid component monomer and/or oligomers of the polyester. In one polyester resin composition, the surface roughness Ra of a capture plate is less than 0.150 ?m, as measured when a sample of the polyester resin composition is melt at 300° C. for 60 minutes under a nitrogen atmosphere, quickly cooled and thermally treated at 220° C. for 8 hours to form scattered products which are then attached to the capture plate. In another polyester resin composition, the production rate of an acid component monomer and/or the production rate of oligomers is/are less than 0.70, as defined by formulas (I) and (II): Production rate of acid component monomer=(amount of produced acid component monomer)/(acid component monomer content)??(I) Production rate of oligomers=(amount of produced oligomers)/(oligomer content)??(II).

  • Patent number: 9764123
    Abstract: A needle-less connector includes a housing having a drug solution flow path, and an elastic valve body. An end surface of the housing on a side of a tip end opening of the drug solution flow path constitutes a protruding support surface whose center section protrudes and slopes in a direction of a foot, and the elastic valve body is superposed onto the protruding support surface in a state of close contact therewith. Insertion of a male luer into a slit of the elastic valve body causes expanding deformation of the elastic valve body along the protruding support surface. A flexion section is formed on a sloped surface of the protruding support surface, and the sloped surface has different tilt angles on a foot section side and on a crest section side of the flexion section.

  • Publication number: 20160276689
    Abstract: A release layer of a release film for producing a membrane electrode assembly of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell comprises a cyclic olefin polymer comprising an olefin unit having a C3-10alkyl group as a side chain thereof. The release layer may have a glass transition temperature of about 210 to 350° C. The release layer may have a transition point of a dynamic storage modulus E? in a range from ?50 to 100° C. An ion exchange layer comprising an ion exchange polymer may be laminated on the release layer of the release film by a roll-to-roll processing to produce a laminate. The release film may be separated from the laminate to give the membrane electrode assembly. The release film achieves improved production of a membrane electrode assembly (an electrolyte membrane and/or an electrode membrane) of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell.
