  • Publication number: 20240301114
    Abstract: The present invention provides a novel polycarbonate diol and a polyurethane using the polycarbonate diol as raw materials. The novel polycarbonate diol produces polycarbonate diol-based polyurethane which has a high degree of hardness, superior abrasion resistance, and superior hydrophilicity, and is usable for an application such as a paint, a coating agent, a synthetic leather, an artificial leather, and a highly-functional elastomers, or the like. The present invention also provides an active-energy radiation curable polymer composition giving a cured film having a superior contamination resistance and high degree of hardness. The present invention is obtained, for example, by reacting specific two types of diols with diester carbonate in the presence of a transesterification catalyst being a compound using a metal of Group 1 or 2 on the periodic table.

  • Patent number: 11972901
    Abstract: A method to produce a multilayer ceramic electronic component includes forming supports by an ink jet printing method to produce a green multilayer ceramic capacitor. A green ceramic layer and outer electrodes of the multilayer ceramic electronic component are formed by the ink jet printing method while the supports define peripheries of the green ceramic layer and the outer electrodes. When fired, the green multilayer ceramic electronic component is converted to a sintered multilayer ceramic electronic component, and the supports disappear by heating.

  • Publication number: 20230054903
    Abstract: A first resin member having laser light absorbing property and a second resin member having laser light transmitting property are joined together through laser welding. A pressure application step of applying pressures to contact boundary surfaces of the first resin member and the second resin member in upward and downward directions includes warping, along a first welding portion, a one end portion side of the second resin member such that the warping occurs from a follow-up origin at a boundary between a thin portion and a thick base portion of the second resin member. Consequently, a gap between the contact boundary surfaces that is generated owing to a curved recess in the first welding portion can be eliminated, whereby imperfection of welding is ameliorated.
