摘要:
The present invention relates to a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery in which a spirally coiled battery element obtained by spirally coiling an anode (3) and a cathode (2) through a separator (4) is accommodated in a battery can (5) filled with a non-aqueous electrolyte. A fluoride MFn (M indicates at least one metal selected from between Cu, Ni, Ag, Ti, Sn and Cr, and n is an integer.) is included in the anode before an initial charging operation, and assuming that the initial charging capacity of the battery is Q [mAh] and a Faraday constant is F [C/mol], an amount m [mol] of the fluoride MFn included in the anode is located within a range represented by the following expression 0.0036 Q/nF≦m≦0.36 Q/nF.

A polymer actuator is provided. The polymer actuator includes a plurality of gel/electrode complexes arranged in an electrolytic solution, wherein the gel/electrode complex is composed of a polymeric hydrogel containing acidic or basic functional groups and electrodes placed in the polymeric hydrogel, such that it changes in volume upon application of a voltage across said electrodes. The polymer actuator expands and contracts in the linear direction without curved deformation. The polymer actuator is light in weight and is capable of control with a low voltage.

The present invention proposes a vacuum/high pressure filling apparatus which can improve the filling rate and shorten the impregnating time period in immersing a porous workpiece into a filling liquid. The vacuum/high pressure filling apparatus includes: an openable and closable hermetic partition chamber unit constituted by two upper and lower split partition wall unit portions, a partition chamber unit opening and closing mechanism to open and close the partition chamber unit, a vacuum suction opening and a pressurizing opening provided for the partition chamber unit, a liquid vessel arranged in the partition chamber unit to receive a filling liquid, a holder arranged, in the partition chamber unit, for the porous workpiece, an elevator unit to move the filling liquid in the liquid vessel and the porous workpiece relative to each other inside the partition chamber unit so as to immerse the porous workpiece into the filling liquid in the liquid vessel and pull up the workpiece from the filling liquid. When the partition chamber unit opening and closing mechanism brings the two upper and lower split partition wall unit portions into hermetic contact with each other, the partition chamber unit is closed and sealed. When the partition chamber opening and closing mechanism spaces the two upper and lower split partition wall unit portions from each other, the partition chamber unit is opened. By using the vacuum/high pressure filling apparatus according to the present invention, composite materials such as lubricant-impregnated metals, thermosetting resin-impregnated cast metals, etc. can be obtained.

A stimuli-responsive polymer hydrogel is provided. The stimuli-responsive polymer hydrogel has a high breaking strength and excellent stimuli-responsive function and is highly stable with elapse of time. The stimuli-responsive polymer hydrogel is capable of gelating as a result of absorbing and swelling with water and capable of changing its degree of swelling and/or volume in response to a stimulus and contains a water-insoluble polymer as a phase separation structure.

To provide a polymer actuator which is light in weight and capable of linear expansion and contraction with a low voltage. The polymer actuator 1 is composed of a plurality of gel/electrode complexes arranged in an electrolytic aqueous solution 6, said gel/electrode complex being composed of a polymer gel (2a, 2b) containing at least either of acidic or basic functional groups and electrodes (3a, 3b) placed in the polymer gel, said electrodes being made of a material capable of occluding and releasing hydrogen electrochemically, such that the polymer gel (2a, 2b) in the gel/electrode complex changes in pH upon application of voltage across the electrodes (3a, 3b) of the gel/electrode complexes (4a, 4b) and each of the gel/complexes changes in volume in response to the pH change.
摘要:
The Rh content by percentage in an HC absorbent catalytic converter provided in an exhaust pipe is greater than the Rh content by percentage in an upstream three-way catalyst. In this way, even when HC which has been temporarily absorbed is emitted in an atmosphere and the exhaust gas becomes rich, the HC absorbent catalytic converter displays improved oxidization and removal of HC due to the high content by percentage of Rh which has a high HC conversion ratio in rich atmospheres. There is no necessity to control the air-fuel ratio to a strongly lean ratio and so HC removal can be improved while maintaining suppression of NOx emissions.
