  • Publication number: 20210106800
    Abstract: The invention provides a composition that more effectively and simply realizes lightening and plumping of lips. Provided is a microneedle array for lips applied locally to lips in order to lighten and/or plump the lips, the microneedle array including a water-soluble polymer, in which a microneedle has a height of 50 ?m to 300 ?m, and a tip of the microneedle is a circle having a diameter of 5 to 150 ?m or a plane having the same area.

  • Patent number: 7773049
    Abstract: The crosstalk of a display apparatus can be efficiently eliminated to realize a precise, high-quality display. A liquid crystal display apparatus includes, as a crosstalk elimination circuit, an adjacent picture element acquisition circuit (1) that acquires display signals of picture elements adjacent to a self picture element, and two-dimensional LUTs (2) that use the display signals of the adjacent picture elements, acquired by the adjacent picture element acquisition circuit (1), to correct display signals of the self picture element so as to correct RGB display signals. The picture element display signals as corrected by the correction values output from the LUTs (2) are output to a source driver (4) via a timing controlling unit (TC) (3).

  • Patent number: 5565402
    Abstract: The present invention provides a heat sensitive recording material comprising a substrate and a recording layer thereon incorporating a colorless or light-colored basic dye and a color acceptor, the recording material being characterized in that, the basic dye comprises at least one black-forming fluoran derivative and at least one phenothiazine derivative such as 3,7-bis(dimethylaminophenyl)-10-benzoylphenothiazine in an amount of 5 to 100 wt. % based on the fluoran derivative, and the color acceptor comprises a diphenyl sulfone derivative such as 3,3'-diallyl-4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl sulfone.
