Abstract: One object of the present invention is to provide a method or apparatus for purifying target particles from high-concentration particles in a short time. The above problem can be solved by a method for purifying target particles, characterized in that the method comprises a step of sorting the target particles from a high concentration of non-target particles, wherein the sorting step is repeated for three times or more.

Abstract: A stator includes star-connected coils of a plurality of phases. Each coil has bodies each configured by connecting conductors in series. Each body is wound while passing alternately through an M-th layer and an (M+1)-th layer of a slot. Each body includes: a first terminal; a first part wave-wound from the first terminal to one side in a circumferential direction; a folded portion connected to the first part on the one side; a second part wave-wound from the folded portion to the other side in the circumferential direction; and a second terminal connected to the second part on the other side. The first parts of the bodies of the same phase are sequentially arranged in slots arranged one by one on the one side. The second parts of the bodies of the same phase are sequentially arranged in slots arranged one by one on the other side.

Abstract: A liquid developer containing toner particles containing a resin binder and a colorant, a dispersant, and an insulating liquid, wherein the resin binder contains a polyester-based resin, and wherein the insulating liquid contains 50% by mass or more of a saturated fatty acid ester which is an ester of a saturated fatty acid and an alcohol having 3 or more carbon atoms. The liquid developer of the present invention is suitably used in development or the like of latent images formed in, for example, electrophotography, electrostatic recording method, electrostatic printing method or the like.

Abstract: A powdery composition comprising the following components (A), (B) and (C). A hair dyeing or bleaching kit composed of a first composition consisting of a powdery composition and a second composition comprising hydrogen peroxide. Component (A): an alkanolamine having an SP value by the Fedors method of 10 (cal/cm3)1/2 or more and 16 (cal/cm3)1/2 or less or a salt thereof; Component (B): a compound having an SP value by the Fedors method within ±6 (cal/cm3)1/2 inclusive of the SP value of the component (A) as an alkanolamine (with a proviso that compounds corresponding to component (A) are excluded from component (B)); Component (C): a powdery carrier.

Abstract: An indication sheet 20 of an electronic device includes: a base sheet 21 which has one end portion 21a coupled to a portion located inward from an indication sheet opening 3a and configured to be housed through the indication sheet opening 3a while being at a folded position; and a drawable part 22 which has a higher stiffness than the base sheet 21, to which the other end portion 21b of the base sheet 21 continues, and which can be pulled out through the indication sheet opening 3a. When the drawable part 22 has been pulled out and the base sheet 21 has been unfolded, information described on the base sheet 21 is exposed outside the indication sheet opening 3a. In this manner, as large an amount of information as possible may be described on the indication sheet even if a limited space is available.
