Provided is a molding film comprising a curable coating layer. The molding film can conform to the surface shape of a molded body that has a deep-drawn shape and, after the curable coating layer has been cured, exhibits excellent surface hardness, scratch resistance, chemical resistance and high weather resistance, and in particular exhibits high weather resistance not only when laminated on transparent substrates, but also when laminated on colored substrates. Also provided are a molded body that uses this molding film as well as a method for producing a molded body that uses this molding film and an article comprising the molded body. The present invention relates to a molding film comprising an acrylic resin film (A) and a curable coating layer (B) disposed directly on at least one surface of the acrylic resin film (A). The curable coating layer (B) comprises an actinic radiation-curable resin composition comprising: a polymer (a) that contains an actinic radiation-reactive functional group and does not contain a urethane bond group in the structure; and a hindered amine light stabilizer (b) that is reactive with the actinic radiation-reactive functional group in the polymer (a).

The shaft includes an inner tubular member having a lumen and a tubular member group constituted by a plurality of outer tubular members, each having a lumen, disposed on the outer side with respect to the inner tubular member and aligned in the circumferential direction of the inner tubular member. In a cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, the shaft includes a portion in which the distance (D10) between the center of a first outer tubular member and the center of a second outer tubular member is larger than the distance (D11) between the center of the first outer tubular member and the center of a third outer tubular member.

Abstract

A balloon catheter including: a shaft extending in a longitudinal direction from a proximal side to a distal side; a first balloon disposed at a distal part of the shaft; and a balloon group including a plurality of second balloons disposed outside the first balloon and arranged in a circumferential direction of the first balloon. In an inflated state of the first balloon and the balloon group, a length of the first balloon from a distal end thereof to a proximal end thereof in the longitudinal direction is shorter than a length of at least one of the plurality of second balloons from a distal end thereof to a proximal end thereof in the longitudinal direction.
