A coated material comprising a substrate which has micropores and a reaction product coated thereon along the surface configuration of the substrate and an inner wall of the micropores thereof. The coated material is preferably produced by performing a supercritical coating step wherein a reaction precursor is dissolved in a supercritical fluid to form a precursor fluid and then the precursor fluid is brought into contact with a substrate in the presence with a reaction initiator to allow a reaction between the reaction precursor and the reaction initiator, thereby coating a reaction product onto the substrate.

A process is developed for recycling a polyolefin cross-linked substance having a cross-linkage, a polyolefin foamed substance free from a cross-linkage or a polyolefin foamed substance having a cross-linkage. The process includes the step of heating the polyolefin cross-linked substance together with a cross-linkage breaking agent, whereby breaking the cross-linkage to recycle the polyolefin cross-linked substance into a moldable thermoplastic resin. Further, the process includes the step of adding a foaming-agent-decomposition facilitating agent to the polyolefin foamed substance in the course of thermally melting the polyolefin foamed substance, whereby decomposing a residual foaming agent remaining in the polyolefin foamed substance. Furthermore, the process includes the step of adding a foaming-agent-decomposition facilitating agent to the polyolefin foamed substance in the course of heating the polyolefin foamed substance to break the cross-linkage, whereby decomposing a residual foaming agent remaining in the polyolefin foamed substance. The resulting recycled product is improved in terms of moldability, strength, elongation and superficial appearance.

A process for recycling a thermoplastic resin covered with a thermosetting-resin paint film includes the steps of decomposing the paint film by bringing the thermoplastic resin covered with the paint film into contact with a paint-film-decomposing agent in a molten state, and removing decomposed products, resulting from the paint film and the paint-film-decomposing agent, and the residual paint-film-decomposing agent by degassification to prepare a recycled resin. The paint-film-decomposing agent can be primary amines and/or secondary amines having a boiling point of 250.degree. C. or less, or being decomposed at 250.degree. C. or less, or can be tertiary amines and/or quaternary amines having a boiling point of 250.degree. C. or less, or being decomposed at 250.degree. C. or less to which water and/or alcohols is added.

A complex crystal is composed of anion of triiodine and cation of a fused compound consisting essentially of at least one nitrogen atom and at least 3 aromatic fused rings. Since the complex crystal has such a stable structure, it shows excellent heat resistance and excellent moisture resisting property. Furthermore, the complex crystal has light-polarizing performance because of an arrangement of the molecular chain of iodine. Moreover, the complex crystal exhibits excellent polarization because of an interaction between the fused compound and iodine. Therefore, the complex crystal is suitable for use as light-adjusting particles of a light valve or a light-adjusting glass.

A herapathite has a capillary crystal form in which its iodine atoms are oriented in a major axis direction of the capillary crystal form. The herapathite obtained is expressed by a chemical formula, xC.sub.20 H.sub.24 N.sub.2 O.sub.2.yH.sub.2 SO.sub.4.zHI.sub.3, in which a ratio of a number of the sulfuric acid molecules (y) with respect to a number of the iodine atoms (3z), i.e., (y/3z), is less than 0.5. The production process includes a reaction step, a first separating step, a recrystallizing step and a second separating step. A solvent used in the recrystallizing step is at least one of water and alcohol. A mixing weight ratio of water with respect to alcohol of the solvent is more than 50/50 or less than 10/90. The herapathite does not degrade even after it is heated up to 130.degree. C., and it is applicable to an automobile light shielding glass which should show a high transparency when a voltage is applied thereto.
