摘要:
In an image-forming apparatus, a temperature sensor is situated in the position where the sensor is insusceptible to steam. The position is, for example, a portion, of a discharge-sensor lever, where a printing material abuts on the discharge-sensor lever. Accordingly, the temperature sensor becomes insusceptible to steam, whereby the image-forming apparatus can more appropriately control the fixing temperature than conventional image-forming apparatuses. In other words, the image-forming apparatus can more reduce the incidence rate of defects, such as increase, due to excess heating, in the amount of hot-offsets and curls, deterioration of loading capacity, and defective fixing due to scarcity of the amount of heat, than the conventional image-forming apparatuses. Moreover, by determining a threshold temperature every time when a printing material passes through a heat-fixing unit, a problem can be alleviated, in which, at the beginning of a series of paper passage, the amount of fluctuation in detected temperature becomes significantly large.

The present invention provides a method for purifying a niobium compound and/or tantalum compound in a simplified manner at a low cost. This is accomplished by providing a method for purifying a niobium compound and/or tantalum compound whereby a niobium compound and/or tantalum compound dissolved in a solvent is allowed to precipitate to be isolated.

An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus including a heating fixing portion and a host computer capable of instructing printing. In the image forming apparatus, throughput can be changed and discriminated in accordance with a printing number. For printing on small size sheets, the system is operable in a normal small size sheet mode and in a high speed small size sheet output mode, in which the printing is effected at a throughput which is higher than that in the normal small size sheet mode and, after completion of the printing, the image forming apparatus rests for a predetermined rest period. The host computer includes a mode selector for selecting a mode from the high speed small size sheet output mode and the normal small size sheet mode, and a controller for transmitting the mode selected by the mode selector to the image forming apparatus.

The heat fixing apparatus includes a fixing heater and a pressure roller. The fixing heater has a plurality of resistance-type heat generation layers which are different in heat distribution in the longitudinal direction perpendicular to the direction of conveying a recording material. The recording material P is heated when passed through a fixing nip portion formed between the fixing heater and the pressure roller. The pressurization conditions between the fixing heater and the pressure roller can be changed. The heat fixing apparatus includes a fixing member which adjusts the lengthwise heat distribution of the fixing heater by changing the applied current proportion of the plurality of resistance-type heat generation layers according to the pressurization conditions between the fixing heater and the pressure roller.

Provided is a method for purifying a quaternary alkyl ammonium salt enabling the obtainment of a particulate quaternary alkyl ammonium salt having a low water content at a high yield which is suitably used as an electrolyte in an electrolytic solution.The method for the purification of a quaternary alkyl ammonium salt comprises dispersing a quaternary alkyl ammonium salt to be purified into an organic solvent to allow it to form a suspension there. The alkyl groups constituting the quaternary alkyl ammonium salt have 1 to 5 carbon atoms each. The quaternary alkyl ammonium salt to be purified is dispersed into the organic solvent to make a suspension, and then the particles are washed with an alcohol solvent.
摘要:
A method for preparing tantalum oxide and/or niobium oxide, characterized in that it comprises adding a basic aqueous solution to an aqueous solution of tantalum fluoride salt and/or niobium fluoride salt, to form tantalum hydroxide and/or niobium hydroxide, and then firing said tantalum hydroxide and/or niobium hydroxide. The above method allows the preparation of the tantalum oxide and/or niobium oxide in the state of a needle crystal or columnar crystal, not of a spherical crystal or an assemblage form.
