A quartz glass crucible for use in a process for pulling a single crystal silicon and having an outer layer and an inner layer. The outer layer contains less than 0.3 ppm each of Na, K and Li and more thant 5 ppm of Al. The outer layer further contains bubbles to present an opaque appearance. The inner layer is made by melting powders of high purity non-crystalline synthetic silica and contains less then 200 ppm of OH group. There is also disclosed a method for producing the crucible.

摘要:
A gene coded for a polypeptide which possesses interleukin-2 activity is isolated, and connected with a vector DNA which is capable of replicating in a procaryotic or eucaryotic cell at a position downstream of a promoter gene in the vector obtaining a recombinant DNA, with which the cell is transformed to produce interleukin-2.
摘要:
An improved two-cycle engine in which the inner wall of the head of the combustion cylinder facing the combustion chamber is formed of a heat-insulating ceramic element which surrounds the tip of a mounting portion of the spark plug of the cylinder. The tip of the spark plug should be threadless in the area surrounded by the ceramic element. The ceramic element is preferably a sintered product made of silicon nitride, zirconia, sialon, alumina or silicon carbide.

An ultrasonic humidifier comprising an atomizing chamber 2 containing water which is atomized by an ultrasonic vibration board 4 to be discharged therefrom. A water supply tank 11 is provided with a valve rod 14 having a valve 15 adapted to close a water outlet 13 thereof. The valve rod 14 protrudes by the elastic force of a spring. A water supply tank chamber 5 which, when said water supply tank is mounted therein with the valve rod 14 directed downward, relatively depresses the lower end of the valve rod with the bottom thereof to open the water outlet 13. A valve rod receiving chamber 6 communicates with the tank chamber. The water level of the atomizing chamber 2 is equal to the level of said water outlet 13 of the water supply tank which confronts with the valve rod receiving chamber 6. A water delivering path (17a or 17b) establishing communication between the valve rod receiving chamber 6 and the atomizing chamber is bent and elongated in a horizontal plane thereof.
摘要:
A gerotor assembly includes a star, a ring, and an annular plug member, as well as an o-ring. The star member defines a center opening of a first diameter which is connectable to a low-pressure fluid reservoir. The ring member circumscribes the star member. The ring member defines, in conjunction with a stationary end cap of a fluid control device, a fluid channel connectable to a high-pressure fluid supply. The plug member is circumscribed by the star member, and defines a center bore of a second diameter less than the first diameter. The o-ring is positioned between the star and the plug members. The plug member forms a fluid seal against the end cap. A fluid control device includes the above gerotor assembly and a valve housing section. A method of assembling the gerotor assembly and fluid control device are also disclosed.
摘要:
The present invention is intended to provide a method for simultaneously measuring cholesterol in low density lipoprotein and total cholesterol as test components in blood. Specifically, a method is used for simultaneously measuring cholesterol in low density lipoprotein and total cholesterol in a biological sample, whereby cholesterol in low density lipoprotein and total cholesterol in a biological sample are quantified with a single measurement.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing an electrode substrate that has a base substrate made of glass having a strain point of 520° C. or higher, a transparent conductive layer formed on the base substrate, a metal wiring layer, and an insulating layer made of low-melting glass that covers the metal wiring layer, the metal wiring layer and the insulating layer being provided on the transparent conductive layer, the method including at least the steps of providing paste that forms a base material of the low-melting glass so as to cover the metal wiring layer; and forming the insulating layer by sintering the paste by means of a heat treatment.
