Multilayer polymer sheets are provided, as well as related methods, systems, and appliances.

A transfer film, a method for producing a film-coated article and a film-coated article.

The present invention discloses a method of filling simulated muscles for a limb of an automobile crash test dummy, the simulated muscles are molded with foaming in the inner cavity of the mold; the method comprises: obtaining a filling volume of the inner cavity of the mold by using a liquid casting method, preparing an adhesive liquid film layer, preparing a filler and conducting demolding detection on the limb. Wherein step 3 is to inject the mixed filler into the inner cavity of the mold so as to be foamed in the mold to form foamed sponge, and stand until the foamed sponge is foamed to the exhaust port and does not overflow any more.

An environmentally friendly shoe component of a shoe includes scraps and an elastic material layer within which the scraps are distributed, the scraps include bottle scraps made by crushing plastic bottles, the elastic material layer is made of thermosetting polyurethane elastomer, and at least a part of the scraps is visible by a human's naked eye.

A support for an equipment, where the support comprises at least one reception imprint which is concave and designed to receive at least partially the equipment and at least one coating made of waterproof elastomer designed to come into contact with the equipment.

The present disclosure relates to a wood-plastic coated metal composite profile and a production process, and belongs to the technical field of composite profiles. The wood-plastic coated metal composite profile includes a metal core material, a wood-plastic surface layer and an intermediate layer provided between the metal core material and the wood-plastic surface layer. The intermediate layer includes unsaturated carboxylic acid modified polyolefin and thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer, inorganic filler, polyurethane prepolymer. In the present disclosure, an intermediate layer is provided between the wood-plastic surface layer and the metal core material for bonding. The intermediate layer has excellent performance when bonding with the metal, and at the same time, it can blend with the wood-plastic surface layer to a certain extent during co-extrusion. Thereby, a stable structure with core material-intermediate layer-wood-plastic surface layer is formed, and the intermediate layer has good elasticity and impact resistance, and can maintain good bonding under various environments.

A method of making a three-dimensional object by additive manufacturing from a blended resin including (i) at least one light polymerizable first component and, (ii) at least one, or a plurality of, second solidifiable components that are different from said first component, the method including: providing a first resin and a second resin, where the resins produce three-dimensional objects having different mechanical properties from one another when all are produced under the same process conditions; mixing the first and second resins with one another to produce the blended resin, the blended resin producing a three-dimensional object having mechanical properties intermediate between that of objects produced by the first and second resins when all are produced under the same process conditions; and dispensing the blended resin to the build region of an additive manufacturing apparatus; and then optionally but preferably producing a three-dimensional object from the blended resin in the apparatus.

A film with a gas barrier resin having a glass transition temperature of 70° C. or below and an elastomer, and having an oxygen permeability coefficient of 200 mL/(m.sup.2.Math.day.Math.atm) or less. In a case where tension is applied to stretch the film in a machine direction (MD) at 20° C. such that a twofold increase in length of the film is kept for 30 seconds, and then the tension is released, a ratio L.sub.2/L.sub.1 is 1.5 or less, where L.sub.1 denotes the length of the film prior to application of the tension and L.sub.2 denotes the length of the film subsequent to release of the tension. An elongation ratio at break E.sub.TD/E.sub.MD of the film is preferably 0.9 or more and 1.7 or less, there E.sub.MD denotes the elongation at break in MD and E.sub.TD denotes the elongation at break in the transverse direction (TD).

A multilayer sheet comprising first and second layers is provided. The first layer consists of a co-polyester. The second layer consists of a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer having an elongation at break of greater than 200%, a hardness of 60A to 85D, an ultimate tensile strength of greater than about 5000 psi, and a light transmission between 400 nm and 800 nm of greater than about 75%. A mold is provided and the multilayer sheet is thermoformed over the mold to form a plurality of tooth-receiving cavities configured to receive and reposition a patient's teeth from a first arrangement toward a second arrangement. Excess material is trimmed from the thermoformed multilayer sheet to form a multilayer dental aligner.

Described herein is a process for preparing a foam (FA) with a Poisson's ratio in the range of from −0.5 to 0.3, the method including the steps of providing a foam (F1) with a flow resistance in the range of from 3000 to 8000 Pas/m, determined according to DIN EN 29053, and subjecting the foam (F1) to thermoforming including triaxial compression, wherein the foam (F1) is not reticulated prior to step (ii). Also described herein is the foam obtained or obtainable according to the process and the use of the foam as, for example, an energy absorbing device, preferably in protective gear, furniture, cushions, in cleaning devices with improved rinse-out behavior, in shoe soles, or as sealing, insulating or anchorage providing material for example used in earphones, ear plugs or dowels, or as acoustic material.
