Abstract: A thin film of molten polypropylene resin extruded from a T die is pressed and cooled with a chill roll equipped with a hologram relief master plate on its peripheral surface, whereupon a hologram pattern is simultaneously formed as an integral part of the polypropylene resin sheet being molded. Since the polypropylene resin has a Rockwell hardness of at least 70, the hologram pattern formed in the resulting hologram forming sheet is less likely to be damaged or lost during subsequent processing.

Abstract: The present invention is a tear production measuring sheet that has a pair of measuring strips adapted to be used for the right and left eyes and is disposed side by side in such a manner that the strips have a common scale. Each of the measuring strips is separated from the measuring sheet by a cut formed in the measuring sheet so as to extend around the measuring strip, except for a connection between the measuring strip and the sheet.

Abstract: Provided is a new granulator for preparing granules from a powdery material by agglomerating it through a kneading action, comprising a receptacle and two screws having screw blades disposed within the receptacle in parallel alignment to ensure intermeshing of the screw blades. The novel granulator consists of a feeding zone, a kneading zone divided into an upstream section and a downstream section, and a breaking zone. In the feeding zone, the blades on the two screws are forwardly conveying blades. In the upstream section of the kneading zone, on one screw a backwardly conveying blade is first provided and a forwardly conveying blade follows, and on the other screw, a forwardly conveying blade comes first and a backwardly conveying blade follows, said alternate arrangement occurring at least once in each screw. In the downstream section of the kneading zone, the blades on both of the screws are backwardly conveying screws.
