Abstract: A decorative material including a substrate and a decorative sheet laminated on at least one side of the substrate is provided. The decorative sheet includes a colored substrate layer; and a transparent resin layer laminated on one side of the colored substrate layer, where the transparent resin layer is made of a resin composition containing plant-derived high-density polyethylene, and a nucleating agent is added to the resin composition containing the high-density polyethylene.

Abstract: The present invention provides a resin composition having high heat-resisting properties, with which a shaping can be performed in accordance with designed sizes using a fused deposition modeling method-3D printer, and from which a shaped object having a small warpage and small changes in sizes due to water can be obtained. The present invention relates to a resin composition for a shaping material of a fused deposition modeling method-3D printer, comprising cellulose fibers in a polyamide.

Abstract: The present invention provides a resin composition capable of giving a molded body having a metallic color tone and excellent in surface hardness, surface glossiness, mechanical properties, and flow mark reducing property. The present invention relates to a polyamide resin composition comprising 100 parts by mass of a polyamide (A), 0.1 to 50 parts by mass of a cellulose fiber (B) having an average fiber diameter of 10 ?m or less and 0.1 to 12 parts by mass of a metallic pigment (C).

Abstract: The present invention provides a resin composition excellent in mechanical properties, stiffness properties, appearance characteristics, flame retardancy and metal corrosion resistance and having a small environmental load, compared to those of conventional polyamide-based flame-retardant resin compositions. The present invention related to a flame-retardant resin composition, comprising: 35 to 85% by mass of a polyamide resin (A); 0.45 to 30% by mass of a cellulose fiber (B) having an average fiber diameter of 10 ?m or less; 4.5 to 40% by mass of metal phosphinate (C); and 0 to 35% by mass of a reinforcing material (D) other than the cellulose fiber.

Abstract: The present invention provides a sliding member which is superior to a conventional polyamide sliding member not only in mechanical properties (especially, flexural property) but also in sliding property. The present invention relates to a sliding member comprising unmodified cellulose fibers or cellulose fibers in which a part of hydroxyl groups from cellulose has been modified with a hydrophilic substituent, which have an average fiber diameter of 10 ?m or less, in an amount of 0.1 to 50 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of a polyamide resin.

Abstract: An information processing system includes first, second, and third processors. The first processor assigns a processing request to one of virtual machines. The second processor determines whether there is a high load virtual machine whose load exceeds a predetermined threshold value among the virtual machines. The third processor determines whether to increase a number of the virtual machines based on a load of the respective virtual machines when the second processor determines that there is the high load virtual machine. The third processor determines whether to transfer processing to be performed by the high load virtual machine to a first virtual machine based on a number of processing requests assigned to the respective virtual machines upon determining that the number of virtual machines is not to be increased. The third processor makes the first virtual machine perform the processing upon determining that the processing is to be transferred.
