Abstract: A flexible wiring board is obtained as follows. A copper foil pattern is formed on the both surfaces of a base polymer film made of polyimide, etc. The copper foil pattern of the both sides, except for an end portion of the copper foil pattern of one surface, is covered entirely with an insulative protecting film made of polyimide, etc., for protecting the copper foil pattern, and the insulative protecting film and the copper foil pattern are bonded with each other by an insulative protecting film adhesive layer. On the exposed end portion of the copper foil pattern on one surface is formed a plated layer to be connected to an electrical component. The thickness of the insulative protecting film which is bonded with the surface on which the plated layer is formed is set to be thinner than the base polymer film. As a result, it is ensured that insulation failure of the insulative protecting film is prevented, and wire breakage of wiring when bent can easily be prevented.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for efficiently dephosphorizing, dephosphorizing and decarbonizing, or desulfurizing, dephosphorizing and decarbonizing a hot metal in a converter. The amount of flux to be charged and the amount of bottom-blown gas are adjusted so that the bottom-blowing agitation power and the CaO/SiO.sub.2 ratio subsequent to the treatment become at least 0.1 kW/ton and from 0.7 to 2.5, respectively and the hot metal temperature at the treatment end point becomes from 1,200.degree. to 1,450.degree. C. Furthermore, the operation of the process is controlled so that the sum of a T.Fe concentration and a MnO concentration in the slag subsequent to the treatment becomes from 10 to 35% by weight by adjusting the top-blown oxygen feed rate, the flow rate of bottom-blown gas or the top-blowing lance height.

Abstract: The present invention relates to absorbent articles such as sanitary napkins, panty liners, and incontinence pads. More particularly, the present invention relates to absorbent articles, such as sanitary napkins, that have longitudinal side edge components that naturally wrap the sides of a wearer's panties which provide an alternative to conventional side flaps.

Abstract: Polymeric dielectrics, which comprise 60 to 79 % by mole of repeating units derived from vinylidene fluoride, 18 to 22 % by mole of repeating units derived from trifluoroethylene and 3 to 22 % by mole of repeating units derived from chlorotrifluoroethylene, have high dielectric constant.
