"Dynamic Sliding Method Kit" effective for evaluating water-repellent and oil-repellent properties of fibers and glass.

The analysis of the sliding method using conventional contact angle meters incorporates the concepts of sliding velocity and sliding acceleration, allowing for a comprehensive evaluation of droplet sliding behavior on inclined surfaces. This is expected to be widely adopted in the development of materials and coatings for water-repellent applications. (Technology provided by: Kanagawa Prefectural Institute of Industrial Technology, a local independent administrative agency) *KYOWA is pleased to offer customers a new proposal for a "dynamic sliding method" that adds time parameters to the conventional sliding method system.

Evaluate the surface treatment state of various powders such as fillers, pigments, and food-grade powders based on their wettability and permeability with solvents. Address the issues of powder contact angle measurement and "filling methods."

Powder is a collection of finely crushed solids and possesses unique properties that differ from the three states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. This leads to various challenges in research and development as well as in production environments. Today, powders have become essential in a wide range of fields, from pharmaceuticals, food, and cosmetics to advanced industries such as paints, batteries, and nanotechnology. While the use of powders and processed products is generally in the form of tablets or dispersions, in order for them to fulfill their roles as products, the penetration of liquids and wettability are important factors in almost all cases, regardless of the form. The measurement of liquid penetration speed and contact angles in powders is an old yet new technology, and by utilizing the latest know-how, it is possible to obtain reproducible data.

[Speaker] ENEOS Power Co., Ltd. VPP Business Division VPP Business Planning Group Manager Yoshio Kyoraishi [Key Lecture Content] As one of the means of monetization in the VPP and grid storage battery business, considering entry into the demand-supply adjustment market has become unavoidable. On the other hand, due to rapid changes in the system since the start of trading for all products (April 2024), the difficulty of considering market entry has increased. In this situation, it is important to accurately capture the changes in market systems and predict the future market environment to proceed with considerations. In this lecture, we will organize the means of monetization, market environment, and market systems in the VPP and grid storage battery business, and discuss future prospects. [Lecture Items] 1. Means of Monetization 2. Market Environment 3. Market System 4. Future Prospects 5. ENEOS Power's Business Development 6. Summary 7. Q&A / Business Card Exchange

Takeuchi Kogyo Co., Ltd. will exhibit at the "39th EMC and Noise Control Technology Exhibition," which is part of TECHNO-FRONTIER 2026, held at Tokyo Big Sight from Wednesday, July 15 to Friday, July 17, 2026. Venue: Tokyo Big Sight, West Hall 3 Booth Number: 3-H14

The speed of application development is changing significantly. While the use of cloud, agile methodologies, in-house development, and generative AI is advancing, it has become increasingly difficult to sufficiently mitigate development risks through post-process checks by the security department alone. Additionally, there are expectations for the evolution of security measures through the use of generative AI, and the realization of advanced DevSecOps using AI is anticipated to become important in the future. This seminar will explain the challenges commonly faced when practicing DevSecOps, such as clarifying the lacking security measures, prioritizing those measures, and enhancing DevSecOps through the use of AI. This content is a must-see for those in information systems, security, development, and operations who are struggling with promoting DevSecOps.

We will be exhibiting at TECHNO×FRONTIER 2025 - the 40th Power System Exhibition. Please be sure to visit our booth. Our booth: West Hall 4, NO. 4-B25 Organizer: Japan Management Association https://www.jma.or.jp/tf/outline/power.html
