Abstract: The invention provides a novel polyvinyl acetal having
N-vinylamide monomer units in the molecule, and provides a binder
with the novel polymer for ink or paint and for ceramic forming.

Abstract: The present invention provides a wireless network
card in which a directivity of a radio wave in a desired
direction away from a main apparatus is stronger than
other directions with an improved antenna sensitivity.
The wireless network card 11 comprises a card-shaped
board 2 on which an electronic circuit unit 3 is
arranged; radiating conductor patterns 4 and 5 and
feeding lines 6 and 7 that are provided on one surface of
the board 2; and a ground conductor pattern 8, serving as
a ground of the radiating conductor patterns 4 and 5,
provided on the other surface of the board 2. Also,
choking slits 10 and 12 set to have a length that makes
it difficult for a high-frequency current to flow through
the electronic circuit unit are formed in a region of the
ground conductor pattern 8 that does not overlap the
feeding lines 6 and 7, between the electronic circuit
unit 3 and the radiating conductor patterns 4 and 5. For
example, the choking slit 12 is formed in the ground
conductor pattern 8 located on a region that is
relatively close to the radiating conductor patterns 4
and 5. Since the choking slit 12 has an elongated hole
shape with its both ends closed, the length of the
choking slit 12 is set to about 1/2 of a resonant
wavelength λ, and thus a choke effect can be obtained.
