Abstract:
Disclosed are a composite composition comprising carbon nanotubes and a transparent conductive film using the composite composition. The composite composition comprises a solution of an ion conductive polymeric binder in a solvent and carbon nanotubes dispersed in the solution. The transparent conductive film is formed by coating a dispersion of carbon nanotubes in an ion conductive polymeric binder on a base film to allow the transparent conductive film to be electrically conductive as a whole. The composite composition can be used to form a transparent conductive film with excellent bending properties as well as high electrical conductivity and high transparency. Therefore, the composite composition can be applied to transparent electrodes for use in foldable flat panel displays.
Abstract:
A paper feeding device for an image forming apparatus includes a pick-up roller for picking up paper from a paper feeding cassette and for feeding the paper to a registration roller. The registration roller registers a leading end of a sheet of paper and compensates for skew of the paper by stopping to allow the leading end of the paper to contact the registration roller to form a paper curl and maintaining the paper curl. The paper feeding device does not require a feeding roller but instead controls the rotation of the pick-up roller to form the paper curl. Therefore, the paper feeding device is compact and can be used with a compact image forming apparatus.
Abstract:
The thermoplastic resin composition of present invention comprises (A) about 50 to about 90% by weight polyphenylene sulfide resin; (B) about 5 to about 30% by weight graphite; (C) about 5 to about 30% by weight fluoropolyolefin resin; (D) about 1 to about 10% by weight whiskers; and (E) about 0.01 to about 10% by weight carbon nanotubes. The thermoplastic resin composition can exhibit electrical conductivity, wear resistance and heat resistance.

The present invention provides a carbon nanofiber-metal composite, which is formed by continuously coating a carbon nanofiber including a plurality of laminated truncated, conic graphenes with a metal. The carbon nanofiber-metal composite according to the present invention can have improved magnetic permeability and conductivity, and thus can be useful as an electromagnetic shielding material.
Abstract:
A carrier removing device of a wet-type image forming apparatus, according to an embodiment of the present invention, comprises an intermediate transfer medium and a vaporizing unit. The intermediate transfer medium receives images from an image carrying medium. The vaporizing unit evaporates, at a low temperature, a liquid carrier saturating the intermediate transfer medium.
Abstract:
A paper detecting device to detect paper presence on a paper plate in a paper feeding cassette, and comprising a light-emitting device and a light-receiving sensor. In the paper feeding cassette, an end-fence is movably mounted, and at least one of the light-emitting device and the light-receiving sensor is mounted on a base of the end-fence to be covered by the stacked paper. Accordingly, before developing a new image, the complete consumption of the paper supply can be detected, and therefore, the toner can be saved.
