Abstract

A wafer lift pin for lifting a silicon wafer mounted on a susceptor, the wafer lift pin being inserted to be vertically movable in an insertion hole of the susceptor inside a semiconductor manufacturing device. The wafer lift pin has a rod-shaped base made of glassy carbon, and an SiC film that is formed using the CVD method and that coats the surface of the base. At least a part sliding along the inside of the insertion hole of the susceptor is coated by the SiC film. When the surface of the SiC film is observed using a scanning electron microscope, all the surfaces of the wafer lift pin in the observation field are coated with SiC particles, and in the observation field, the ratio of the observation area of SiC small particles for which the particle diameter is 2.00 µm or less with respect to the total coating area of the SiC film is 50% or greater, and the part in contact with the silicon wafer is not coated by the SiC film. According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a wafer lift pin that is not susceptible to cracking of the SiC film due to the difference in the coefficient of thermal expansion between the SiC film and the glassy carbon during cooling after SiC film formation.

That is, the valve plate (12) is formed of a ferrous material such as cast iron or steel, while the sliding surface (12A) constituting the surface of the valve plate (12) is composed of the sliding layer (21). The sliding layer (21) consists of a sintered copper alloy which comprises Cu (copper) and Sn (tin) as main components with the balance containing 2 to 6 wt% of CaF2(calcium fluoride) as an essential component. The average particle diameter of the CaF2 is controlled to 40 to 350μm. On the other hand, the sliding surface (8A) of a cylinder block (8), namely a counterpart sliding surface, is composed of a sliding layer of a ferrous material. That is, the sliding layer (21) of a copper alloy is not formed in the sliding surface (8A).

Abstract

This invention provides an aqueous dispersion of carbon black, which has excellent dispersibility in an aqueous medium and is suitable as aqueous black inks including inks for ink jet printers, and a process for producing the same. The aqueous dispersion of carbon black is characterized in that it comprises a carbon black pigment dispersed in an aqueous medium, and acidic groups produced by liquid phase oxidation treatment have been neutralized with a basic amino acid and a part or the whole of hydrogen in the acidic groups have been substituted by a basic amino acid base. The process for producing the aqueous dispersion of carbon black is characterized by comprising subjecting carbon black to liquid phase oxidation treatment, then removing a reducing salt contained in a slurry, then neutralizing the slurry with a basic amino acid to substitute a part or the whole of hydrogen in the acidic group by a basic amino acid base and thus to produce a basic amino acid salt compound, and then conducting purification.

Abstract

This invention provides a water dispersion of carbon black, which has excellent dispersibility and ink properties and is suitable as a water-based black ink for ink jet printers and the like, and a process for producing the same. The water dispersion of carbon black is characterized in that a slurry comprising carbon black, a surface chemical modifier, and an aqueous medium is ejected though nozzles under pressure to allow ejected flows to collide against one another or against wall surface and the maximum particle diameter of carbon black particle aggregates is not more than 1 騜m. The production process is characterized by comprising mixing carbon black and a surface chemical modifier into an aqueous medium to prepare a slurry, pressurizing the slurry, ejecting the slurry through nozzles, allowing ejected flows to collide against one another or against wall surface to disintegrate the carbon black particle aggregate and, at the same time, to chemically modify the carbon black, thereby finely dispersing the carbon black in the aqueous medium. The disintegration and fine dispersion are carried out so that the maximum diameter of the carbon black particle aggregate is not more than 1 騜m.

Abstract

This invention provides a separator material suitable as a solid polymer fuel cell, which has good gas impermeability, strength properties, and dimensional stability during long-term use and causes no significant elution of organic matter which inhibits a cell reaction and the like, and a process for producing the same. The separator material is characterized by comprising a graphite/resin cured molded product in which a graphite powder is bound by a mixed resin prepared by mixing an epoxy resin and a phenol resin that have regulated epoxy group equivalent and hyroxyl equivalent together at an equivalent ratio in a specific range, and adding an amino group-free imidazole compound as a curing accelerator, and which has been immersed in hot water of 90ºC for 500 hr to bring the elongation upon water absorption, the amount of ammonium ion after immersion for 50 hr, and the amount eluted TOC to specific values or less. The separator material is produced by premolding a molding powder, prepared by grinding a kneaded product of a mixed resin and a graphite powder to prepare a preform, then inserting a preform into a mold, and conducting thermocompression molding.
