Abstract: A blasting method of processing a bomb by forming an explosive layer on an outermost surface of the bomb to be processed having a casing in a particular shape and by exploding the explosive layer, wherein the explosive layer comprises a first explosive layer formed around the outermost surface of the casing and a second explosive layer formed as to surround the first explosive layer, an explosive in the second explosive layer has a higher explosion velocity than an explosive in the first explosive layer, and the second and first explosive layers are exploded at a certain time interval by igniting a particular region of the second explosive layer. The method allows low-cost blasting of bombs, by relaxing the impact of the scattering casing fragments.

Abstract: A blasting method of blasting an explosive device at least containing an explosive and a chemical agent in a sealed pressure vessel that prevents soot generation during blasting and improves an efficiency of decomposing the chemical agent. First, a transported chemical bomb (explosive) 100 is placed and sealed in a blasting chamber (pressure vessel) 10. The blasting chamber 10 is then brought into a reduced-pressure or vacuum state by aspiration of the air therein by using a vacuum pump 13a and oxygen is supplied through an injection port 12 into the blasting chamber 10 to a pressure of 15 to 30% of atmospheric pressure. The chemical bomb 100 is then blasted, as it is ignited by an ignition device not shown in the Figure.

Abstract: The base material for pressure-sensitive adhesive tape or sheet is constituted of a polyolefin based resin as the major component and is obtained by rolling by means of a calender having a measure capable of individually changing the rotational speed of each calender roll. Examples of the measure capable of individually changing the rotational speed of each calender roll include a measure provided with motors capable of individually driving their respective calender rolls and a measure provided with speed regulators capable of individually regulating their respective calender rolls. It may be employed that the number of calender rolls is four and that the roll arrangement is in the reverse L shape. It is preferable that the base material for pressure-sensitive adhesive tape or sheet contains an inorganic compound together with the polyolefin based resin.

Abstract: A solid type pressure-sensitive adhesive composition containing a rubbery polymer as the main polymer; and pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets which use the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, are excellent in adhesive strength and holding power, retain the intact holding power even when allowed to stand at high temperatures or made to have a reduced adhesive layer thickness, and are free from the problem of adhesive protrusion or adhesive remaining. The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets comprise a substrate and formed thereon a layer comprising a solid type pressure-sensitive adhesive composition obtained by a method comprising adding a tackifier to a rubbery polymer and treating the resultant mixture with an isocyanate crosslinking agent to crosslink the polymer.

Abstract: An epoxy optical sheet comprising a hardened sheet of an epoxy resin and another resin layer formed on one side thereof. The sheet has a retardation of 5 nm or less, an average thickness of 500 &mgr;m or less, a thickness accuracy of ±10% or less, a glass transition temperature of 170° C. or above, and a smooth surface. The epoxy optical sheet is made by a continuous process which comprises: successively forming a strippable resin layer on a support having a smooth surface; successively spreading an epoxy resin coating solution comprising an epoxy resin, a hardener, a hardening accelerator, and a leveling agent, on the resin layer in the form of a sheet; followed by a hardening treatment, thereby forming a hardened sheet adhering to the resin layer; and, at the same time, recovering the hardened sheet together with the resin layer from the support.

First, a graphite-like substance is prepared which contains boron (B), carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) as main elements. Then, the graphite-like substance is mixed with a metal powder to produce a mixture. Then, a pressure is applied to the mixture to produce a molded body, and then an explosion pressure is applied to the molded body.

Abstract: Acetylene can be polymerized into a polyacetylene by a solid-state polymerization reaction when it is compressed into a solid under a high pressure of, for example, 1 GPa or higher. The polyacetylene product is obtained in a bulky transparent form in contrast to conventional polyacetylenes in a fibrous form prepared by utilizing a Ziegler-Natta catalyst, and free from impurities because neither catalyst nor solvent is used in the reaction.
