Acicular(Green)pigment Explanation: Just a guess It is a term applied chiefly to describe the shape of pigment particles which are long and slender. To be acicular, the length of the particle must be at least three ... www.springerreference.com › ... › Encyclopedic Dictionary of Polymers -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2014-02-05 09:13:22 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The primary particles of a pigment may be nodular, spherical, prismatic, acicular or lamellar.

green hypodermic needle? Explanation: If we equate メジ with a short for 'medical' (as suggested by the first link submitted herewith) , then combining メジwith 針 leads us to find out more about hypodermic/intravenous needle types. Now, it just happens that to minimize errors and speed up medical support, needles used in clinical care are colour coded from the smallest to the biggest as follows: clear red, orange, dark gray, green, yellow, and clear/colorless (see 2nd link supplied). Could this alternative suggestion fit the broader context of the passage you are looking at? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 hrs (2014-02-06 06:26:02 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- No! I was wrong! I neglected the syntax, morphology of the text sample raised as well as the domain referred to (PP): Here "green' is a Noun;"メジ針” is a Qualifier for a medical needle used for injections or blood sampling. So if PP refers to molded plastic polymer component production, we are indeed dealing with a colour/pigment label and that is the shade of 'green' used to die in the mass the plastic connector of the hypodermic/intravenous needle to be produced. Conclusion: the correction required for this suggestion should be: 'medical needle' green -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 hrs (2014-02-06 06:35:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- PS: rephrasing the last few words: "the shade of 'green' used to die in the mass the plastic connector of the hypodermic/intravenous needle to be produced." should actually read: " the shade of 'green' agreed on worldwide and specified to die in the mass the plastic connector of the hypodermic/intravenous needle to be produced." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 hrs (2014-02-06 06:36:59 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- PS2: "needles" instead of 'needle' would make more sense.
