DYED POLYPROPYLENE FIBER STRUCTURE AND GARMENT USING SAME
This dyed polypropylene fiber structure is characterized by being dyed with a red dye that is represented by general formula (1). (In the formula, each R1 independently represents a group selected from the group consisting of branched alkyl groups having 4-8 carbon atoms and aryl alkyl groups having 9-19 carbon atoms; and n represents a number of 1-3. The branched alkyl groups contain a quaternary carbon atom; and alkyl moieties of the aryl alkyl groups contain a quaternary carbon atom.)
Provided is an antibacterial member capable of maintaining a high antibacterial effect and excellent osteoconductive properties over a long period of time. The antibacterial member according to the present invention, which is provided with a fluorine-containing DLC film (F-DLC film) 40 on at least a part or the entire of the outermost surface of a base material 10, is characterized in that the element ratio (F/F+C) of the F-DLC film is 17-72% and the nanoindentation hardness is 2,000-16,000 MPa. Thus, an antibacterial member capable of sustaining a high wear resistance and good adhesion and maintaining a high antibacterial effect and excellent osteoconductive properties over a long period of time can be obtained. The F-DLC film does not necessarily cover the entire outermost surface of the base material but may be disposed in spots thereon.
It is arranged that the board thickness t of a dielectric board (1) and the element interval d of a plurality of resonant elements (2) be determined according to a design value Ldes for an attenuation amount L by which a higher order mode occurring in the resonant elements (2) upon incidence of an electromagnetic wave on the dielectric board (1) attenuates during propagation through the dielectric board (1). This makes it possible to suppress the occurrence of a basic mode having a different propagation constant from the propagation constant the basic mode of the incident electromagnetic wave has. As a result, the frequency band of a reflect-array antenna can be widened as compared to a case where only the shapes of the resonant elements (2) are devised.
The method of the present invention comprises the steps of: previously obtaining correlation data between surface properties of the polishing pad dressed under a plurality of stages of dressing conditions and polishing effects of the work polished by the polishing pad dressed under the dressing conditions; determining an assumed dressing condition capable of achieving an object polishing effect from the correlation data; dressing the polishing pad under the assumed dressing condition determined; polishing the work; cleaning the polishing pad which has been used for polishing the work; and measuring a surface property of the cleaned polishing pad.

Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a polysaccharide derivative by esterification, or etherification or the like, while maintaining a high molecular weight by using a polysaccharide such as cellulose as the starting material, and to do so without using a catalyst, a cocatalyst, or an active compound. Moreover, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a cellulose derivative directly in a separated state from a biomass containing lignocellulose. This method for producing the polysaccharide derivative is characterized in that the reaction is performed in a mixture comprising a starting material containing a polysaccharide, an ionic liquid which is capable of producing a carbene and in which the pKa in DMSO of the conjugate acid of the anion is 12 to 19, and a chain-like or cyclic ester compound or an epoxy compound. Preferably a biomass starting material containing lignocellulose is used as the starting material containing polysaccharide.

METHOD FOR BUILDING THREE-DIMENSIONAL MODEL OF ORGAN, AND PROGRAM
The present invention is a method for building a three-dimensional model of an organ, employing any of the following. If a subsequently selected pair of points to be linked both return to a starting point, a seventh procedure is terminated. Depending on the case, candidate points adjacent to one point to be linked and another point to be linked are selected as the next pair of points to be linked. The distance from the one point to be linked to a candidate point adjacent to the other point to be linked and the distance from the other point to be linked to a candidate point adjacent to the one point to be linked are calculated by three-dimensional space conversion, taking into consideration the distance between layers. The two points having the shorter distance therebetween among the two calculated distances are selected as the next pair of points to be linked.
