Abstract

A shipping method includes: receiving based on instruction from an orderer, a filled container obtained by filling a container with a resin composition; inputting the number of filled containers to a computer; cooling the resin composition in the filled container to a phase transition temperature at a specific cooling rate; storing the resin composition cooled to the phase transition temperature in a cooling box at a temperature equal to or lower than the phase transition temperature; receiving the number of shipping of the filled containers from the orderer; thawing the resin composition in some or all of the filled containers to a conveyance temperature at a specific temperature raising rate, based on the number of shipping; and a step of shipping, to the orderer, the filled container filled with the resin composition thawed to the conveyance temperature while maintaining a temperature equal to or lower than the conveyance temperature.

First claim

1 . A shipping method comprising:
a step of receiving, based on an instruction from an orderer, a filled container obtained by filling a predetermined container with a resin composition; a step of inputting the number of filled containers to a computer; a step of cooling the resin composition in the filled container to a phase transition temperature at a specific cooling rate by a thermostatic chamber; a step of storing the resin composition cooled to the phase transition temperature in a cooling box at a temperature equal to or lower than the phase transition temperature; a step of receiving the number of shipping of the filled containers from the orderer; a step of thawing the resin composition in some or all of the filled containers stored in the cooling box, based on the number of shipping, to a conveyance temperature at a specific temperature raising rate by the thermostatic chamber; and a step of shipping, to the orderer, the filled container filled with the resin composition thawed to the conveyance temperature while maintaining a temperature equal to or lower than the conveyance temperature, wherein
the phase transition temperature is a temperature at which heat absorption is first generated in DSC (μW) when the temperature is raised at a temperature raising rate of 10° C./min from −200° C. by differential scanning calorimetry.

2 . A shipping method comprising:
a step of receiving, based on an instruction from an orderer, a filled container obtained by filling a predetermined container with a resin composition; a step of inputting the number of filled containers to a computer; a step of cooling the resin composition in the filled container to a phase transition temperature at a specific cooling rate by a thermostatic chamber; a step of storing the resin composition cooled to the phase transition temperature in a cooling box at a temperature equal to or lower than the phase transition temperature; a step of receiving the number of shipping of the filled containers from the orderer; a step of thawing the resin composition in some or all of the filled containers stored in the cooling box, based on the number of shipping, to a conveyance temperature at a specific temperature raising rate by the thermostatic chamber; and a step of shipping, to the orderer, the filled container filled with the resin composition thawed to the conveyance temperature while maintaining a temperature equal to or lower than the conveyance temperature, wherein the phase transition temperature is a temperature lower by 15° C. than a temperature of a DDSC (μW/min) local maximum when the temperature is raised at a temperature raising rate of 10° C./min from −200° C. by differential scanning calorimetry.

3 . The shipping method according to claim 1 , wherein the specific cooling rate is a rate at which the inside of a chamber in the thermostatic chamber is cooled at a cooling rate of 10° C./min or more.

4 . The shipping method according to claim 1 , wherein the specific cooling rate is a rate at which a resin temperature of the resin composition is reduced at a cooling rate of 2.0° C./min or more.

5 . The shipping method according to claim 1 , wherein the phase transition temperature is −5° C. or lower.

6 . The shipping method according to claim 1 , wherein the resin composition contains a curable resin.

7 . The shipping method according to claim 1 , wherein the specific temperature raising rate is a rate at which the inside of a chamber in the thermostatic chamber is heated at a temperature raising rate of 1.0° C./min or less.

8 . The shipping method according to claim 1 , wherein the resin composition stored for at least one year exists in the cooling box.

9 . A shipping method comprising:
a step of receiving, based on an instruction from an orderer, a filled container obtained by filling a predetermined container with a resin composition; a step of inputting the number of filled containers to a computer; a step of cooling the resin composition in the filled container to a temperature of −5° C. or lower at a cooling rate of 10° C./min or more by a thermostatic chamber; a step of storing the resin composition cooled to the temperature of −5° C. or lower in a cooling box at the temperature of −5° C. or lower; a step of receiving the number of shipping of the filled containers from the orderer; a step of thawing the resin composition in some or all of the filled containers stored in the cooling box, based on the number of shipping, to a conveyance temperature at a temperature raising rate of 1.0° C./min or less by the thermostatic chamber; and a step of shipping, to the orderer, the filled container filled with the resin composition thawed to the conveyance temperature while maintaining a temperature equal to or lower than the conveyance temperature.

10 . A cooling and thawing method for a filled container obtained by filling a predetermined container with a resin composition, the cooling and thawing method comprising:
a step of cooling the filled container obtained by filling the predetermined container with the resin composition to a temperature of −5° C. or lower at a cooling rate of 10° C./min or more by a thermostatic chamber; a step of storing the resin composition cooled to the temperature of −5° C. or lower in a cooling box at the temperature of −5° C. or lower; and a step of thawing the resin composition in the filled containers stored in the cooling box at a temperature raising rate of 1.0° C./min or less by the thermostatic chamber.
