Abstract: In an image resolution conversion apparatus, a region-determining section (102) establishes an initial value used for determining a region where a new pixel is to be generated based on the number of pixels in a non-line direction included in a pixel group used for converting the resolution attribute of fields , and a resolution conversion magnification ratio. The region-determining section (102) accumulates an integration parameter corresponding to the resolution conversion magnification ratio onto the obtained initial values under the predetermined condition. The region-determining section (102) outputs: a region-control signal; and the newly-established-pixel-position signal, successively based on the accumulation result.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of an 1,1-disubstituted oxirane is disclosed, wherein an organic sulphide is reacted in a polar solvent with an educt containing a leaving group attached to a primary or secondary carbon atom, and/or the sulfonium salt formed in this way is reacted with a ketone in presence of a base and a polar solvent. Oxiranes of the type obtained may be further converted into the corresponding α-hydroxyketone or α-aminoketone, either in one step by subjecting to aerobic oxidation in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, or in two steps by hydrolyzation in the presence of an aqueous acid to the corresponding dialcohol and subsequent selective oxidation. Further described are some novel epoxide intermediates. 
     The α-hydroxyketones and α-aminoketones thus obtainable are useful inter alia as photoinitiators.

Abstract: A combination of MWNTs (herein, MWNTs have more than 2 walls) and DWNTs significantly improves the mechanical properties of polymer nanocomposites. A small amount of DWNTs reinforcment (<1wt.%) significantly improves the flexural strength of epoxy matrix nanocomposites. A same or similar amount of MWNTs reinforcement significantly improves the flexural modulus (stiffness) of epoxy matrix nanocomposites. Both flexural strength and flexural modulus of the MWNTs and DWNTs-coreinforced epoxy nanocomposites are further improved compared with same amount of either DWNTs or MWNTs-reinforced epoxy nanocomposites. In this epoxy/DWNTs/MWNTs nanocomposite system, SWNTs may also work instead of DWNTs. Besides epoxy, other thermoset polymers may also work.
