Abstract: This invention provides an acid-resistant malt extract useful to add a clear or transparent color to acidic food and beverage having a pH value of not less than 2 and less than 4.6, without generating suspended or sedimented insoluble matter; and a manufacturing method therefor. The malt extract of the present invention is obtained by adjusting the particle diameter of insoluble particles contained in the malt extract to less than 0.9 ?m by way of, for example, filtering an untreated liquid malt extract or a treated liquid thereof using a filter having a pore diameter of 0.9 ?m or less.

Abstract: When a rotating electrical machine winding is inserted into a slot with a protective insulation intervening between them, a semiconductive insulating layer is lap-wound between an interlayer insulating layer of the rotating electrical machine winding and the protective insulation, the semiconductive insulating layer being formed by center-folding a continuous semiconductive sheet in the longitudinal direction. A thermal stress relaxation layer is provided inside the center-folded continuous semiconductive sheet so that thermal stress exerted in thickness direction of the insulating layers is absorbed.

To obtain flawless joints between the cylinders of carbon fiber reinforced plastics and the end covers increased wall thickness portions are provided at opposite axial end portions of an inner cylinder near joints of the inner cylinder with the end covers, one increased wall thickness portion being located at one axial end portion on an outer side surface thereof and the other increased wall thickness portion being located at the other axial end portion on an inner side surface thereof. Thus, the inner cylinder has a small wall thickness at an axial central portion to reduce an eddy current loss while its wall thickness is increased at the opposite axial end portions to improve mechanical strength and facilitate joining of the end covers to the inner cylinder.
