Abstract: To provide an expansion molded product not only excellent in sound absorption properties and rigidity but also resistant to tearing after bending deformation, and a web and a stampable sheet suitable for producing the expansion molded product. The presently disclosed web, stampable sheet, and expansion molded product contain a reinforcing fiber containing an inorganic fiber and an organic fiber, a thermoplastic resin, and a thermal expandable particle, where the proportion of the reinforcing fiber is 20 mass % or more and 55 mass % or less based on a total amount of the reinforcing fiber and the thermoplastic resin, the proportion of the organic fiber is 25 mass % or more and 77 mass % or less based on a total amount of the organic and inorganic fibers, the reinforcing fiber has an average length of 8 mm or more, and the organic fiber has a breaking elongation of 15% or more.

Abstract: A bowing correction apparatus for a temper rolling mill corrects vertical bowing of a cold-rolled steel sheet. The bowing correction apparatus includes at least a first bowing correction auxiliary roll, first deflector roll, second deflector roll and second bowing correction auxiliary roll. These rolls are arranged in the running direction of the cold-rolled steel sheet and are alternately positioned on upper and lower sides of the cold-rolled steel sheet to correct bowing of the sheet.

Abstract: An uneven patterned metal strip or plate is formed with an uneven pattern as a surface decorative pattern. The pattern is constituted of one or more pattern unit containing a plurality of uneven dot. Each of the uneven dots has a size D. The uneven dots are arranged in a predetermined density to have given ratio .eta. of occupying area versus plane area in said pattern unit. The size D and area ratio .eta. being in a range of:10.ltoreq.D.ltoreq.300 (.mu.m)30.ltoreq..eta..ltoreq.100 (%)and the size of said pattern unit has minimum length of 1 mm.
