  • Patent number: 9305689
    Abstract: An injection molding composition includes a ferrite powder which is a collection of ferrite particles, a first binder and a second binder, wherein a softening point of the second binder is lower than that of the first binder, a weight and a specific surface area of the ferrite powders are represented by Wp and S, and a weight and a density of the first binder and the second binder is represented by Wb1, Wb2, and Db1, Db2, and a hypothetical thickness Tb1 of the first binder is 0.6 to 3.0, and a hypothetical thickness Tb2 of the second binder is 5.0 to 16.0. In the composition, it is preferable that coated ferrite particles covering the outer circumference of the ferrite particles with the first binder and the second binder exist. Tb1 [nm]=(Wb1×103)/(Db1×Wp×S)??formula (1) Tb2 [nm]=(Wb2×103)/(Db2×Wp×S)??formula (2).

  • Patent number: 8765860
    Abstract: An injection molding composition, having a small fluctuation characteristic and a better characteristic, is provided. The above composition is the injection molding composition comprising a ferrite powder which is a collection of ferrite particles, a first binder and a second binder. A weight and a specific surface area of the ferrite powders are represented by Wp and S, and a weight and a density of the first binder and the second binder is represented by Wb1, Wb2, and Db1, Db2. A hypothetical thickness Tb1 of the first binder is 2.0 to 15.0, and a hypothetical thickness Tb2 of the second binder is 16.5 to 32.0. In the composition, it is preferable that coated ferrite particles coating the outer circumference of the ferrite particles with the first binder and the second binder exist.

  • Publication number: 20060163499
    Abstract: An electron beam irradiation apparatus includes an electron beam emission section having an electron beam irradiating tube that emits an electron beam; an electron beam irradiation section for irradiating the emitted electron beam to a target; a transfer mechanism for transferring the target to the electron beam irradiation section; a rotation mechanism for rotating the target on its own axis when irradiating the electron beam; and a linear movement mechanism for generating a relative linear movement such that the electron beam irradiating tube passes right above the target, between the target and the electron beam irradiating tube, when irradiating the electron beam. The linear movement mechanism generates a relative linear movement such that the electron beam irradiating tube goes from an end portion of the target toward the center of the target and turns back before the center of the electron beam emitting portion of the electron beam irradiating tube reaches the center of the target.
