Provided is a thermoplastic resin composition that reduces uneven distribution of inorganic substance particles and is suitable for producing a formed article having excellent appearance and mechanical properties even when the thermoplastic resin is highly filled with inorganic substance powder and a formed article using this thermoplastic resin composition. Provided are an inorganic substance powder-containing thermoplastic resin composition including a thermoplastic resin and inorganic substance powder in a mass ratio of 50:50 to 10:90, in which the inorganic substance powder is calcium carbonate particles, the calcium carbonate particles include at least two groups of particles having different average particle diameters, and any of the average particle diameters of the particle groups is within a range of 0.7 &#x3bc;m or more and 6.0 &#x3bc;m or less; and a formed article using this inorganic substance powder-containing thermoplastic resin composition.

Inorganic substance powder-containing thermoplastic resin composition and formed article

A chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor for forming a film at the surface of a base material, and a production method for an oxide superconductive conductor using this CVD reactor, are disclosed. The CVD reactor is provided with a processing chamber, a material gas supply mechanism which supplies material gas into the processing chamber, and a gas exhaust mechanism which vents gas from inside the processing chamber. The processing chamber is divided by partitions into a base material introduction section, a reaction chamber, and a base material guide-out section. A base material transit opening is formed in each partition, and a base material conveyance region is formed inside the reaction chamber passing through the base material introduction section, the reaction chamber and the base material guide-out section. The material gas supply mechanism is provided with a material gas supply source and a gas disperser and is connected to the material gas supply source. The gas exhaust mechanism is equipped with gas exhaust holes provided at both sides of the base material conveyance region opposite the side where the gas diffuser is disposed, and with a gas venter connected to the gas exhaust holes. The gas diffuser and the gas exhaust holes oppose each other with the base material conveyance region therebetween. The CVD reactor may be used to produce an oxide superconductive conductor by forming a superconductive layer at the surface of a base material while adjusting the flow of gas around the base material.

Chemical vapor deposition reactor and method of producing oxide

A method of producing a superconductor including a superconductive oxide. At least one material is pressed for forming a filling material, the at least one material being selected from the group consisting of a starting material powder of the superconductive oxide, a powder of the superconductive oxide and a compact made of the starting material powder and/or the superconductive oxide powder, for forming a filling material. The filling material is charged into a metallic pipe to form a preform. The preform is moved along an axis thereof. During moving, the preform is swaged perpendicularly to the axis thereof to form a composite having a metallic sheath, made of the metallic pipe, and a core sheathed with the metallic sheath. The core of the composite is heated for producing the superconductive oxide.
