Abstract: A flame-retardant biaxially oriented polyester film is obtained by imparting flame retardancy to a polyester film itself using a phosphorus flame retardant, a flame-retardant polyester film laminate is formed from the same, and a flexible circuit board is provided. The present invention is obtained from a flame-retardant biaxially oriented polyester film which contains, based on the weight of the polyester film, 70 to 99.5% by weight of polyethylene terephthalate or polyethylene naphthalate, and 0.5 to 30% by weight of flame retardant particles having an average particle diameter of 0.5 to 3.0 ?m and being represented by a specific phosphinate or diphosphinate, wherein the number of coarse particles having a maximum length of 10 ?m or more contained in the polyester film is 10/m2 or less.

Abstract: A muffler of a work machine in the form of an engine blower includes: a muffler body; and a diffuser that covers an exhaust outlet of exhaust gas provided on the muffler body. The diffuser has a diffusion space to diffuse the exhaust gas and an exhaust surface on which a plurality of exhaust circular holes are provided to exhaust the exhaust gas to an outside. An opening ratio provided by the exhaust holes of the exhaust surface is gradually increased from a portion corresponding to the exhaust opening toward an outer periphery of the exhaust surface.
