A filler-containing film has a structure in which fillers are held in a binder resin layer. The average particle diameter of the fillers is 1 to 50 μm, the total thickness of the resin layer is 0.5 times or more and 2 times or less the average particle diameter of the fillers, and the ratio Lq/Lp of, relative to the minimum inter-filler distance Lp at one end of the filler-containing film in a long-side direction, a minimum inter-filler distance Lq at the other end at least 5 m away from the one end in the film long-side direction is 1.2 or less. The fillers are preferably arranged in a lattice form.

A resin sheet is for molding, has an impact strength of 1.0 J or greater in a DuPont impact test, and has a value of 80 N/m.sup.2 or smaller obtained through integration from an origin point to a strain when fracture has occurred in a stress strain curve obtained in a tensile test. A carrier tape 100 is a molded body 16 of the resin sheet, wherein an accommodation portions 20 capable of accommodating an article is provided.

A deicing and snow melting device, for lowering the melting point of ice and snow, comprises of a plurality of pellets including an active ingredient. Each pellet of the plurality of pellets has at least an underside and a topside. The active ingredient is selected from the group consisting of chloride salts, organic compounds, alcohols or mixtures thereof. A base comprising a water-soluble sheet is joined to either one of the underside or topside of each pellet of the plurality of pellets. The base may define at least one hole through a top surface and bottom surface of the base allowing for easy dispersion of the active ingredient.

To attain an incombustible sound absorption panel by providing incombustibility to a sound absorption/insulation sandwich panel containing a combustible material as a constituting material.

Fine powder of chips generated during cutting of a foam material to fill in a honeycomb material is located in a gap between the foam material and a sound absorption surface material. A gap between fibers of the sound absorption surface material is blocked by the chips having been moved by a flow such as a water vapor flow generated from hydrate of the honeycomb material heated on the occurrence of a fire. As a result, an air flow path is limited. Further, carbon dioxide gas generated from the foam material is trapped to reduce an oxygen amount, thereby inhibiting combustion. Usage of an adhesive as a combustible material is reduced.

A multilayered flexible package comprises a polymeric coating (2) that contains a dispersion of antioxidant capsules (3) having a particle size distribution comprised between 0.1 and 10 μm and a core-shell structure comprising a core (4), of an antioxidant with a reduction potential comprised between 0.1 and 0.5 V, and a polymeric shell (5) covering the core (4) at least by 70%.

Provided is a thermally conductive sheet having high thermal conductivity not only in a thickness direction of the sheet but also in one direction along a plane direction of the sheet. The thermally conductive sheet is a thermally conductive sheet containing a scaly filler 12 in a polymer matrix 11, wherein the scaly filler 12 is oriented such that a long axis direction of a scale surface is along one of a first direction that is a thickness direction of the thermally conductive sheet and a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction, and a transverse axis direction that is perpendicular to the long axis direction in the scale surface is along the other of the first direction and the second direction.
