The invention provides a method for manufacturing an IC-embedded substrate without generating damages on a semiconductor IC chip embedded in a resin layer due to heating and weighting (stress), and is able to manage increase and finely spaced of number of pad electrodes. Firstly, a copper foil (12) disposed on either side of the core substrate (11) is selectively removed by photolithography and etching, whereby a conductor pattern (13) comprising wiring and lands is formed on the core substrate (11). Next, after a semiconductor IC chip (14) is mounted face up in a prescribed region on the core substrate (11), it is embedded in a resin sheet (16). Then, a copper foil (17) formed on a surface of the resin sheet (16) is selectively removed by shape-maintained machining, as as to form a mask pattern for forming an aperture. Thereafter, the aperture is formed by a sand-jetting processing in which the copper foil (17) applied with shape-maintained machining is used as the mask.

A highly versatile optical member machined into a circular shape for eliminating the effect of optical axis unique to optical members is disclosed which is capable of facilitating stock control without lowering production efficiency. An optical member having a higher degree of freedom in design can be provided by employing such a production method wherein a long optical member is machined into a circular shape and then the circular optical member is machined into a desired shape so that the optical axis can be adjusted finely even after machining of the long optical member.

The invention provides a process for calcined-gypsum production which attains a reduction in the amount of water to be mixed and does not prolong setting time. A raw-material gypsum is calcined after a carboxylic acid is incorporated thereinto, whereby calcined gypsum can be obtained which necessitates a smaller amount of water to be mixed therewith and needs no prolonged setting time. Even when recycled gypsum, which leads to an increase in the amount of water to be mixed, is used in a large amount as a raw material for gypsum, the calcined gypsum produced by the process is reduced in the amount of water to be mixed therewith and needs no prolonged setting time. Consequently, ordinary gypsum boards can be produced without lowering the productivity thereof.

To restrain generation of waste sheets and a decrease in production efficiency as much as possible in sample sheet discharge, provided is an image forming apparatus including an image forming unit for forming an image on a sheet, an image read unit for reading the output image on the sheet on which the image has been formed, an operation / display unit for providing operation and display, and a control unit for controlling the image forming apparatus, where the control unit can display a screen image of the output image read by the image read unit on the operation / display unit for check by a user, thereby saving of waste sheets and minimizing a decrease in the production efficiency, and efficiently checking the output image.

The present invention belongs to the field of steel production, and relates to a method of replacing lime with limestone for slagging and producing steel in an oxygen top blown converter. The invention is characterized in that the limestone is directly added during slagging in the steel production process. The added batch number is increased and the amount of each batch of material is reduced. Namely the lime is added by 1-3 times for slagging formerly, and when the limestone is added for slagging, the limestone is added by 4-8 times. The adding amount of each time, calculated according to the CaO therein, is 1 / 2-1 / 3 of lime added formerly and is for preventing the condensing and incrusting at the metal surface in the furnace in the early period of converting. The adding amount of limestone, calculated according to CaO therein, accounts for 30%-100% of adding amount of lime in the batch. The method of the invention has the main advantages of elimination of lime calcining procedure or reduction of production scale, reduction of cost required for operating the calcining device and reducing the discharged pollution, prevention of heat waste caused by cooling the lime after calcining,low sulfur content in the lime generated in the oxygen top blown converter, and benefit for restraining resulfurization of melted iron in the steel production process.
