Abstract: The application of trinuclear nickel clusters as air-stable catalysts for the production of specific polymer architectures (e.g. syndiotactic polystyrene: sPS, or syndiotactic polymethylmethacrylate), from polar and apolar monomers under energy efficient (i.e., room temperature: RT) conditions using minimal amounts of aluminium- based co-catalysts (e.g., MAO), is described. This novel process represents the first air- stable Ni-based system for the synthesis of stereo-regular vinyl polymers and hence is a "greener" and more cost-effective catalyst technology for the production of such industrially useful polymers.

Abstract: The shuffled playing cards used in various playing games include, ordinary, cards if eight decks of cards are used. Eight decks of playing cards have 416 cards, and the height thereof is bulky. Therefore, when the dealer tries to set such 416 playing cards in a card shooter or the like at one time, it may be impossible to house the cards neatly since they get misaligned. The present invention aims to provide a packing box of playing cards with which the game host can readily set playing cards in a card shooter or the like prior to a game. A packing box 2 of shuffled playing cards 1 has, in an assembled state, a shape of a rectangular parallelepiped with six faces, namely, a front face 3, a rear face 4, a left side face 5, a right side face 6, a top face 7 and a bottom face 8 so as to encase the shuffled playing cards 1. The packing box 2 includes zippers 11 provided in two locations at a predetermined interval, each of which includes zipper-shaped cut lines 10 arranged in parallel with a longitudinal direction (an arrow L) of the rectangular parallelepiped shape, and has a central band 12 in the central portion defined by the zippers 11 provided in the two locations. A configuration is achieved in which by removing the two zippers 11 along the cut lines 10 formed by zipper lines or a straight slit 13, the left and right side faces 5 and 6 of the packing box 2 are removed such that the side faces of the shuffled playing cards 1 would be exposed.
