Japanese industry

Japanese industrial success owes much to Japanese management techniques, which we in the West neglect at our peril. The lessons are set out in this important book.

Japan held 37.5% of the world antibiotic market ki 1988, the USA 23.2%, Italy 8.0%, the United Kingdom 5.4%, Germany 3.6%, and other countries 22.3% (20). The disproportionate size of the Japanese market is in part a consequence of the inherent strengths of Japanese industry which include expertise in fermentation technology and intensive chemical manipulation of known stmctures. In addition, antibiotic prescribing in Japan is extremely popular among doctors as a result of the Japanese reimbursement system.

A historically fragmented Japanese industry, with rapid growth to meet internal demand, changed in 1979 with an agreement by its five principal manufacturers (Mitsubishi, Sumitomo, Nippon Kayaku, Mitsui Toatsu, and Hodogaya) to the formation of a cartel to coordinate research as well as manufacture. Successful operation of this cartel could have profound effects on the international situation by the end of the twentieth century. 

Double Loop EPR Test Details of this procedure are given in Japanese Industrial Standard JIS G 0580 (1986). The sample is ground to a 1(X) grit finish then placed in the test solution for about 2 min to establish the rest potential (about —400 mV (S.C.E.) for AISl Types 304 and 304L stainless steel).

The U.S. electronics industry appears to be ahead of, or on a par with, Japanese industry in most areas of current techniques for the deposition and processing of thin films—chemical vapor deposition (CVD), MOCVD, and MBE. There are differences in some areas, thongh, that may be cracial to future technologies. For example, the Japanese effort in low-pressure microwave plasma research is impressive and surpasses the U.S. effort in some respects. The Japanese are ahead of their U.S. counterparts in the design and manufacture of deposition equipment as well.

Explosives with a safety sheath are also used. The safety sheath must correspond to Japanese Industrial Standard M 7609 (1952). Two kinds are used (1) a sheath wrapper into which the cartridge is rolled, and (2) a sheath tube made in the form of a pipe into which a cartridge is inserted.

Japanese industries including Toshiba, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Fuji Electric, Toyo Tanso, Nuclear Fuel Industries, etc., are developing the HTGR jointly with JAEA. The industrial and public information exchange is supported by the Japan Atomic Industrial Forum (JAIF), the Research Association of High-temperature Gas-cooled Reactor Plant (RAHP), etc. 

Rubbers were compounded with the ingredients and vulcanized as shown in Table I. The vulcanizates were cut off from the sheet with JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) No. 3 dumbbell cutter to prepare the samples for heat aging. Styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), cw-polybuta-diene (BR), and butyl rubber (HR) vulcanizates were aged in the Geer oven at 100°C. for 48 hours. Natural rubber (NR) was aged at 100°C. for 36 hours.
