A decoloring apparatus for an image forming material comprising means for bringing a solvent into contact with an image forming material formed on a paper sheet and containing a color former, a developer and a decolorizer, and means for removing a residual solvent from the paper sheet.

Apparatus for processing paper sheets to decolor an image formed thereon

An image forming material formed on a paper sheet and containing a color former, a developer and a decolorizer, is decolored by heating of the image forming material, contacting the image forming material with a solvent optionally containing a decolorizer, and removing a residual solvent from the paper sheet.

Method of decoloring an image forming material formed on a paper sheet

A method of manufacturing a resin-encapsulated semiconductor device, which includes the steps of, mounting a semiconductor element facedown on a substrate provided with a wiring circuit with a main surface of the semiconductor element being faced to the substrate, positioning the substrate bearing the semiconductor element in a mold together with a sealing resin, and applying a pressure onto the sealing resin to move the sealing resin to a space between the semiconductor element and the substrate, to the sides of the semiconductor element and to the bottom surface of the semiconductor element, thereby sealing the semiconductor element with the sealing resin.

A decolorizable image forming material comprising a color former, a developer and a decolorizer, the decolorizer comprising a highly amorphous phase separation inhibitor and a slightly amorphous phase separation inhibitor. A cyclic sugar alcohol is used as the highly amorphous phase separation inhibitor, and a non-aromatic cyclic compound having five-membered or larger ring substituted by a hydroxyl group or a derivative of a cyclic sugar alcohol is used as the slightly amorphous phase separation inhibitor. The decolorizable image forming material can be decolored easily after image formation by a solvent and the decolored state of which can be maintained stably, thereby making it possible to reuse paper sheets.

A semiconductor chip is positioned between encapsulating sheets. The encapsulating sheets each have a surface that is highly adhesive and a surface that is less adhesive. The surface of the encapsulating sheet that is highly adhesive contacts the chip. The surface that is less adhesive contacts a mold. Subsequently, encapsulation is carried out by molding. A soldering resistance can be improved without reducing a mold releasing property.
