| 20110160375 | CARBON FIBER COMPOSITE MATERIAL, METHOD OF PRODUCING THE SAME, INSULATING ARTICLE, ELECTRONIC PART, AND LOGGING TOOL - A carbon fiber composite material comprising 100 parts by mass of an elastomer, and 20 to 100 parts by mass of carbon nanofibers that have been oxidized and reduced in number of branch points. The carbon fiber composite material has a dynamic modulus of elasticity (E′) at 200° C. and 10 Hz of 10 to 1000 MPa, and a volume resistivity of 10 | 06-30-2011 |
| 20110156357 | DYNAMIC SEAL MEMBER - A dynamic seal member includes a ternary fluoroelastomer (FKM) and carbon nanofibers. The carbon nanofibers are carbon nanofibers having an average diameter of 10 to 20 nm, or carbon nanofibers having an average diameter of 60 to 110 nm and subjected to a low-temperature heat treatment. The carbon nanofibers having an average diameter of 60 to 110 nm and subjected to the low-temperature heat treatment have a ratio (D/G) of a peak intensity D at around 1300 cm | 06-30-2011 |
| 20110156356 | Seal member - The seal member includes a tetrafluoroethylene-propylene copolymer (FEPM) and carbon nanofibers. The seal member has a number of cycles to fracture of 10 or more when subjected to a tension fatigue test at a temperature of 150° C., a maximum tensile stress of 2 N/mm, and a frequency of 1 Hz. The seal member exhibits excellent heat resistance and abrasion resistance. | 06-30-2011 |
| 20110156355 | SEAL MEMBER - A seal member includes a hydrogenated acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (HNBR) and carbon nanofibers. The seal member has a number of cycles to fracture of 7000 or more when subjected to a tensile fatigue test at a temperature of 70° C., a maximum tensile stress of 4 N/mm, and a frequency of 1 Hz. The seal member exhibits excellent abrasion resistance. | 06-30-2011 |
| 20110060087 | CARBON NANOFIBER, METHOD FOR PRODUCTION THEREOF, METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF CARBON FIBER COMPOSITE MATERIAL USING CARBON NANOFIBER, AND CARBON FIBER COMPOSITE MATERIAL - A method of producing a carbon fiber composite material includes a first step and a second step. The first step includes oxidizing first carbon nanofibers produced by a vapor growth method to obtain second carbon nanofibers having an oxidized surface. The second step includes mixing the second carbon nanofibers into an elastomer, and uniformly dispersing the carbon nanofibers in the elastomer by applying a shear force to obtain the carbon fiber composite material. The second carbon nanofibers obtained by the first step have a surface oxygen concentration measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) of 2.6 to 4.6 atm %. | 03-10-2011 |
| 20100009204 | CARBON NANOFIBERS, METHOD OF PRODUCING THE SAME, AND CARBON FIBER COMPOSITE MATERIAL - A carbon fiber composite material includes an elastomer and carbon nanofibers uniformly dispersed in the elastomer. The carbon nanofibers are produced by a vapor growth method and then heated at a temperature that is in a range from 1100 to 1600° C. and is higher than the reaction temperature employed in the vapor growth method. | 01-14-2010 |
| 20100009160 | CARBON NANOFIBERS, METHOD OF PRODUCING CARBON NANOFIBERS, CARBON FIBER COMPOSITE MATERIAL USING CARBON NANOFIBERS, AND METHOD OF PRODUCING THE CARBON FIBER COMPOSITE MATERIAL - A method of producing carbon nanofibers includes grinding untreated carbon nanofibers produced by a vapor growth method. The untreated carbon nanofibers are ground so that the ground carbon nanofibers have a tap density 1.5 to 10 times higher than that of the untreated carbon nanofibers. A method of producing a carbon fiber composite material includes mixing carbon nanofibers into an elastomer, and uniformly dispersing the carbon nanofibers in the elastomer by applying a shear force to obtain a carbon fiber composite material. | 01-14-2010 |
