Abstract: An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus including a fixing unit, a folding processing portion, and a pressure-bonding portion. A first recording material having a first basis weight is fixed at a first temperature by the fixing unit and then is pressure-bonded by the pressure-bonding portion after a lapse of a first period. A second recording material having a second basis weight is fixed at a second temperature by the fixing unit and then is pressure-bonded by the pressure-bonding portion after a lapse of a second period. The second basis weight is larger than the first basis weight. The second temperature is higher than the first temperature. The second period is longer than the first period.

Abstract: An electroluminescent element is disclosed in which a luminescent layer is formed on a reflective insulating layer coated on a back electrode. The luminescent layer is made of moisture-proof coated phosphor powder distributed in a fluorinated resin such that the phosphor powder is entirely covered with the fluorinated resin. A transparent electrode is bonded to a top surface of the luminescent layer where the phosphor particles are not exposed.

Abstract: An electroluminescent lamp has a face side laminated film and a rear side laminated film. The face side laminated film is constituted by sequentially formed layers including a transparent electrode, a luminous layer formed of a moistureproof-coated phosphor powder distributed in fluororesin such as vinylidene fluoride which is a low hygroscopic resin, and a reflective insulation layer formed of a high dielectric material distributed in fluororesin. The rear side laminated film is constituted by sequentially formed layers including a film such as a PET film, an adhesive layer, and a rear electrode which is formed of a conductive material such as carbon paste or nickel paste having a migration property lower than that of silver (Ag) and which is thermally-compress-bonded to the reflective insulation layer. This arrangement makes it possible to omit such outer coat films and hygroscopic films as used in the prior art arrangement.
