Abstract: The present invention provides a thermoplastic resin sheet having a thermoplastic resin expanded layer of which expansion ratio is in the range of 3 to 40 times, and cell wall density ratio is in the range of 2 to 20, said thermoplastic resin sheet having excellent thermal insulation property, and a container being formed from the thermoplastic resin sheet.

Abstract: There is provided a resin composition which comprises 100 parts by weight of a saponified ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer (A) and 0.00001-20 parts by weight of a condensed silicate of lithium aluminium double hydroxide (B) wherein the saponified ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer (A) has 20-50 mole % ethylene units and has a saponification degree of vinyl acetate unit of at least 96%. The resin composition is excellent in heat stability. The resin composition may contain a thermoplastic resin other than the copolymer (A). The resin composition containing the copolymer (A) and the other thermoplastic resin is excellent in compatibility as well as in heat stability.

Abstract: A platinum complex represented by the formula: ##STR1## where X is ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 is a (C1-18) alkyl group, a (C1-18)alkenyl group or a group --Z--R.sup.4 in which Z is --CH.dbd.CH-- or a (C1-5)alkylene group, and R.sup.4 is a phenyl group, a hydroxyphenyl group, a (C7-12)alkoxyphenyl group, a halogenophenyl group, a nitrophenyl group, or (C8-13)alkoxycarbonylphenyl group, a cyclohexyl group having a (C1-5)alkyl substituent, ##STR3## R.sup.2 is hydrogen or a (C1-18)alkyl group, R.sup.3 is hydrogen or a (C1-3) alkyl group, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are linked together to form a (C2-7)alkylene group; the dotted line indicates that the bond may be either a single bond or a double bond; the chain line indicates a conjugated system; the 1,2-diaminocyclohexane moiety has a cis-, trans-l- or trans-d-configuration; and Y is an anion. This platinum complex is useful in the treatment of tumors.
