Abstract:
A rinse-off type hair cosmetic composition containing the following ingredients: (A) from 1 to 10 wt % of a higher alcohol having from 12 to 28 carbon atoms, (B) a quaternary ammonium salt represented by the following formula (1) or a tertiary amine type compound represented by the following formula (2) or salt thereof, (C) from 15 to 70 wt % of a polyhydric alcohol, and (D) from 0.01 to 10 wt % of a dimethylpolysiloxane. The content ratio of the ingredient (A) to the ingredient (B) is from 1:1 to 10:1 in terms of molar ratio. As a method for preventing colored hair from fading, the hair cosmetic composition is used before or after shampooing the colored hair. The hair cosmetic composition can inhibit the bleeding of a colorant from colored hair upon shampooing, and is also excellent in the smoothness of the hair upon applying the composition and also upon rinsing it off.
Abstract:
There is provided with a liquid ejection head unit, a method for the liquid ejection head unit, and a liquid ejection apparatus in which liquid ejection heads can be positioned with high precision and the liquid ejection heads can easily be replaced.There are also inclined ink jet printing heads having nozzle rows in which nozzle openings are arranged and a platform mounted with the ink jet printing heads. The platform includes a first reference hole which is formed in each of the ink jet printing heads by photolithography and to which each ink jet printing head is positioned.
Abstract:
A hair cleansing composition contains (A) from 10 to 20 wt % of at least one surfactant selected from the group consisting of anionic surfactants, nonionic surfactants and amphoteric surfactants; (B) from 1 to 8 wt % of a multivalent, water-soluble, inorganic salt; (C) from 0.1 to 2 wt % of a cationic polymer; and (D) from 5 to 20 wt % of a polyhydric alcohol. As a method for preventing colored hair from fading, shampooing of the colored hair is performed with the hair cleansing composition. The hair cleansing composition of the present invention inhibits the bleeding of a colorant from the colored hair through shampooing, shows good lathering and gives a smooth touch feel upon shampooing, leaves no stiff feeling after drying, and is excellent in stability.
Abstract:
This steering apparatus is capable of changing and controlling a ratio of a turning angle of a steering wheel to an operation amount of an operation member, wherein the ratio is reduced when an operation speed of the operation member is higher than a predetermined operation speed; and if the operation speed is reduced thereafter, then the reduced ratio is maintained.
Abstract:
A clamp tool for woodwork or metalwork in which a screw mechanism is not apart away from a shaft and is not exposed is disclosed. In the clamp tool, a pair of clamping brackets is disposed on a shaft apart from each other and at least one clamping bracket is movable along the shaft to fasten a workpiece in cooperation with the other clamping bracket. Here, a female screw constituting a screw mechanism is disposed at one end of the shaft, a male screw constituting the screw mechanism is rotatable in a slide cylinder disposed outside at the end of the shaft so as to be screwed to the female screw, a handle for rotationally manipulating the male screw is disposed, and a guide portion is disposed between the shaft and the slide cylinder so that the female screw does not rotate but goes straight with the rotation of the male screw so as to allow the clamping bracket disposed outside the slide cylinder to move along the shaft.
Abstract:
The present invention presents a pharmaceutical composition for oral use with improved absorption, which comprises drug, aminoalkyl methacrylate copolymer E, and acidic substance and is obtained by bringing said 3 components together and uniformly mixing at least this polymer and this acidic substance, and a method of improving oral absorption/by using this pharmaceutical composition. Moreover, the present invention presents an agent for improving oral absorption that increases drug permeability of the digestive tract mucous membrane and/or mucous layer present on the surface of this membrane, whose active ingredient is aminoalkyl methacrylate copolymer E. In addition, the present invention presents an oral agent for improving absorption by increasing drug permeability of the digestive tract mucous membrane and/or the mucous layer distributed over this mucous membrane, whose effective component is aminoalkyl methacrylate copolymer E.
Abstract:
A system for releasing a drug specifically in the colon of the gastrointestinal tract, which comprises a drug (b) coated with an organic acid-soluble polymer material (a), and a saccharide (c) which rapidly generates an organic acid by the action of enterobacteria in the lower part of the gastrointestinal tract; a colon-specific drug release oral preparation, which comprises a composition comprising a drug (b) coated with an organic acid-soluble polymer material (a) and a saccharide (c) which rapidly generates an organic acid by the action of enterobacteria in the lower part of the gastrointestinal tract, said composition being coated with an enteric coating polymer material (d). The invention provides a drug release system and a preparation which utilize enterobacteria, which do not form harmful substances due to the release-starting mechanism, show rapid degradation, and have higher colon specificity.
