Abstract:
An acoustic resistor for use in an audio device includes a resin film having air permeability in a thickness direction of the resin film, and the resin film is a non-porous film having through holes formed to extend straight through the resin film in the thickness direction. This acoustic resistor is used in an audio device including: a transducing part that performs conversion between sound and an electrical signal and that includes an acoustic element; a housing enclosing the transducing part and having at least one opening; and a passage for gas that is present inside the housing and communicates with the opening and in which the acoustic element is placed. The acoustic resistor is placed between the opening and the acoustic element in the passage. The variation in properties of the acoustic resistor of the present disclosure can be made smaller than that of conventional acoustic resistors.
Abstract:
The method of the present disclosure includes: (I) irradiating a polymer film (1) with an ion beam composed of ions (2) accelerated in a cyclotron so as to form a polymer film that has collided with the ions in the beam; and (II) chemically etching the polymer film formed in the irradiation (I) so as to form openings (4b) and/or through holes (4a) corresponding to tracks (3) left by the colliding ions in the polymer film. In the irradiation (I), a beam current value of the ion beam is detected upstream and/or downstream of the polymer film in a path of the ion beam, and an irradiation conditioning factor in the irradiation of the polymer film with the ion beam is controlled based on the detected beam current value so that the polymer film can be irradiated with the ions at a predetermined irradiation density. The method of the present disclosure is suitable for industrial production of porous polymer films.

Abstract:
An air-permeable filter includes a porous fluorine resin membrane having one principal surface and the other principal surface, and treated with an oil-repellent agent for oil-repellency. In a measurement of its absorption spectrum by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, an absorbance ratio Rf of the one principal surface and an absorbance ratio Rb of the other principal surface calculated by Aa/Am are not substantially the same. The Aa indicates an absorbance at a peak derived from the oil-repellent agent in the absorption spectrum, and the Am indicates an absorbance at a peak derived from a C—F bond in the absorption spectrum.
Abstract:
The polymer film of the present invention has through holes extending from one principal surface of the polymer film to the other principal surface of the polymer film. The through holes are straight holes having a central axis extending straight, and have a shape in which the area of a cross-section perpendicular to the direction of the central axis increases from the one principal surface of the polymer film toward the other principal surface. This polymer film has passages in its thickness direction, has an unconventional structure, and can be used in various applications, such as in a waterproof sound-permeable membrane, in a waterproof gas-permeable membrane, and in a suction sheet. The ratio a/b of the opening diameter a of the through holes at the one principal surface to the opening diameter b of the through holes at the other principal surface is 80% or is less than 80%.
Abstract:
The method of the present disclosure is a method for producing a porous polymer film including: irradiating a strip-shaped polymer film with an ion beam while moving the polymer film transversely to the ion beam, so as to form a polymer film that has collided with ions in the beam; and chemically etching the formed polymer film so as to form openings and/or through holes corresponding to tracks left by the colliding ions in the polymer film. The ion beam (11) with which the polymer film is irradiated is obtained by folding a tail of an original beam (51) inwardly toward a center of the original beam by nonlinear focusing. The original beam is composed of ions accelerated in a cyclotron and has a cross-sectional intensity distribution profile in which an intensity is maximum at the center of the original beam and continuously decreases from the center toward the tail of the original beam, and the profile is an intensity distribution profile in a cross section perpendicular to a direction of the original beam.

A resin film has through holes formed to extend through the thickness of the resin film. The through holes are pillar-shaped. An average density of the through holes is 1×106 to 1×1012 holes/cm2. An average diameter of the through holes is 1 to 310 nm. A degree of variability of the diameter of the through holes is 30% or less, the degree of variability of the diameter of the through holes obtained by dividing a standard deviation of the diameter of the through holes by the average diameter of the through holes and multiplying the resulting value by 100.
