Abstract:
To provide a novel cross copolymer and resin composition which are improved in heat resistance and compatibility over conventional ethylene/aromatic vinyl compound copolymers and which have low crystallinity, are excellent in softness, transparency and compatibility and show mechanical properties similar to soft vinyl chloride resins, as compared with conventional cross copolymers.A process for producing a cross copolymer, which comprises a coordination polymerization step and a subsequent anionic polymerization step, wherein in the coordination polymerization step, copolymerization of an olefin monomer, an aromatic vinyl compound monomer and an aromatic polyene is carried out by using a single-site coordination polymerization catalyst to synthesize an olefin/aromatic vinyl compound/aromatic polyene copolymer, and then, in the anionic polymerization step, polymerization is carried out in the coexistence of such an olefin/aromatic vinyl compound/aromatic polyene copolymer and an anionic polymerizable vinyl compound monomer by using an anionic polymerization initiator.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a current mirror circuit having a plurality of transistors; a current source configured to supply a constant reference current to the current mirror circuit through a node; and a compensating circuit configured to supply a compensation current to the node to compensate for at least a part of gate leakage currents of the plurality of transistors. The compensating circuit may supply the compensation current equal to a summation of the gate leakage currents.
Abstract:
In an automotive headlamp 10, a lens flange portion 24 is caused to extend from a circumferential edge 23 of a lens surface 18 formed into a configuration which follows the outline of an external surface 19 of a vehicle body toward a lamp housing 11, a surface-roughening process is applied to a surface 25 of an end portion of the lens flange portion 24 to make irregular the surface 25 of the end portion, and a leg portion 28 is caused to extend from a location 27 which deviates from the surface 25 of the end portion in such a manner as to bypass the surface 25 of the end portion, so that the leg portion 28 fits in the lamp housing 11.
