Abstract: In the process of the present invention, a polyamide A1 and an
organized clay B are mixed mainly by dispersive mixing, and after added with a
polyamide A2, mixed mainly by distributive mixing in a corotating
intermeshing twin-screw extruder so designed as to effect the dispersive mixing
and the distributive mixing. The organized clay B is completely and finely
dispersed and distributed throughout the resultant polyamide composite
material. Shaped articles such as films and sheets made of the polyamide
composite material exhibit excellent gas barrier properties and transparency
with little malodor mainly attributable to the decomposed products of the
organizing agent for preparing the organized clay B.

Abstract: A hardware is used to perform an SSDT processing, thereby avoiding
performance degradation than otherwise would occur due to load increase
caused by a software processing, and thereby realizing a base station that can
instantaneously perform a transmission control and provide a high speed site
selection. In order to perform a site selection diversity power control (SSDT) for
the purpose of reducing the amount of interference that would be caused by
transmitting the same data to a plurality of cells or antennas during soft-handover,
an encode processing part (1) is used to add a transmission control
bit to the transmitted data. In response to this transmission control bit, a
transmission control signal selecting circuit (206) selects a transmission control
signal of destination. An output control circuit (207) receives, as its inputs, a
transmission spread signal and the transmission control signal to perform an
output control and instantaneously perform a transmission control, thereby
realizing a high-speed site selection.

Abstract: A building construction assembly composed of factory-manufactured thermoplastic structural modules which when interconnected at a building site then create the entire shell of an edifice having side walls and a roof. Each module which is formed of a pair of parallel panels bridged by transverse webs is provided on either side along its length with a pair of flexible catch flanges projecting from the panels. When assembling these modules to create the shell of the edifice, adjacent modules are interconnected in coplanar relation by a double-faced joiner on each face of which is a pair of teeth. When one face of the joiner is pressed against a side of a module, its catch flanges then flex to snap into and behind the teeth to connect the joiner to this module. The other face of the joiner is similarly connected to the side of an adjacent module whereby the modules are then interconnected in coplanar relation. When it becomes necessary to interconnect four modules in a cross formation, use is then made of a square, quad-faced joiner on each face of which are a pair of teeth which are engageable by the catch flanges projecting from the side of the module to be joined to this face.
