Also, a disposable absorbent article includes a substrate having a surface, the surface including a composition including a hydrophobic matrix component free of fluorine; filler particles, wherein the filler particles are plant-based elements of a size ranging from 100 nm to 100 m, wherein the plant-based elements include micro- and nano-fibrillated cellulose; and water, wherein the hydrophobic component is in an aqueous dispersion, and wherein the surface exhibits a water contact angle of 150 or greater.

The present invention provides an air exhaust or air-and-smoke exhaust pipe for a clean room and a manufacturing method thereof. The air exhaust or air-and-smoke exhaust pipe is a pipe that satisfies FM4922, FM4910, or another equivalent standard and that is used for exhausting nonflammable chemical gas and corrosive vapor or nonflammable chemical gas, corrosive vapor and smoke in fire. The manufacturing method for the air exhaust or air-and-smoke exhaust pipe is: coating an inner part of a pre-manufactured metal pipe with a liquid coating that can be initially dried at normal temperature or low temperature to obtain an inner coating pipe; and baking the inner coating pipe at a temperature not exceeding 250 C. after the coating is initially dried, thus the coating is completely dried to obtain a finished product.

One or more parallel arrays or warps of stabilizing filaments or yarns are introduced into the back of a floorcovering without losing the planar uniformity of the warp, with some of the filaments or yarns optionally reoriented during or after the application to secure multi-directional planar stabilization. Variations include cutting into staple as the warp is introduced, embossing the deposited staple with reorienting patterns, and combining rectilinear and planarly-undulating continuous-filament arrays overlapping to provide multi-directional planar stabilization.

A coating includes at least one coating layer containing first particles, second particles, and third particles distributed throughout a cross-linked, continuous polymer matrix. An outer surface of the coating layer includes surfaces of at least first particles extending outward from a top periphery of the polymer matrix. The outer surface exhibits a property of delaying ice formation compared to the coating layer without the first particles. A method includes applying a coating composition in one application step. The one-step coating composition contains first particles, second particles, and third particles in a base containing a polymer. A coating composition includes first particles, second particles, and third particles distributed in a matrix precursor.

The present invention relates to a film comprising hydrophobically modified cellulose fibers in which cellulose fibers are bound to a modifying group at one or more members selected from anionic groups and hydroxyl groups, and an oil having an SP value of 10 or less. The film of the present invention can be utilized in the fields of materials for packaging containers for cosmetics and foods.

A structure characterized in that a water-soluble organic material solid layer (3) including an oil and/or a fat is provided on a surface of a substrate (1). Also disclosed is an oil film formation method, which includes bringing a hydrous substance into contact with the water-soluble organic material solid layer (3) on the surface of the structure (1) to elute the oil or fat from the water-soluble organic material solid layer and to form the oil film on the surface of the substrate.

The present invention relates to a composite product comprising a thermally modified solid wood component coated with a layer of a composite material which composite material comprises thermally modified cellulosic material and a polymer. The invention also relates to a process for producing said composite product.

The present invention provides a coating composition having excellent damage tolerance. The coating composition includes a binder system comprising at least a fluoropolymer, optionally, one or more other resin components, a crosslinking component and at least one inorganic filler and organic filler. Coated articles with the coating composition applied to at least a portion of a surface thereof are also provided.

A liquid-repellent structure includes a surface to which liquid repellency is to be imparted; a foundation layer having a surface and disposed to face the surface to which liquid repellency is to be imparted; and a liquid-repellent layer disposed to face the surface of the foundation layer, wherein the foundation layer contains an acid-modified polyolefin, the liquid-repellent layer contains a fluorine-containing resin and particles, and the fluorine-containing resin contains a hydrophilic structural unit having at least one of an amino group and an amide group. A packaging material has the liquid-repellent structure disposed to face a product. The packaging material can also be applied to a product that is a selected one of hand soap, body soap, shampoo, rinse, creams, and cosmetics and that contains a surfactant.

The objective of the present invention is to provide a composite plated steel sheet, which has excellent post-formation corrosion resistance by preventing the spread of cracks in a resin layer even if cracks occur in the plating layer of the composite plated steel sheet.
