This injection-molded article is an injection-molded article using a cellulosic fiber composite resin, including: a resin insert piece including a colorant or a cellulose fiber; a first region formed of the cellulosic fiber composite resin; and a second region formed along a weld line of the cellulosic fiber composite resin extending from the resin insert piece, in which the first region and the second region have different color tones.

Disclosed is a biodegradable packaging including: a biodegradable substrate including a bottom from the edge of which a wall rises so as to define an inner face capable of containing an item, such as a food item or a plant; a biodegradable film. The biodegradable substrate includes one or more openings arranged on the bottom and/or the wall, the biodegradable film being positioned on the inner face of the biodegradable medium so as to seal at least the openings. The biodegradable film is positioned on the biodegradable substrate by the in-mould labelling technique.

The invention relates to a sheet-like composite including as layers of a layer sequence, in a direction from an external side of the sheet-like composite to an internal side of the sheet-like composite, a) a carrier layer, b) a polymeric intermediate layer, and c) a barrier layer, where a graph of differential scanning calorimetry of the polymeric intermediate layer includes a peak A at a temperature T.sub.A and a peak B at a temperature T.sub.B, where the temperature TB is more than the temperature T.sub.A, where a width of the peak B is less by at least 3 C. than a width of the peak A. The invention further relates to a container precursor and to a closed container including the sheet-like composite, and also to a process by which the sheet-like composite is obtainable, and to a use of the sheet-like composite.

The present invention provides methods for preparing the nut waste composites from a nut waste component, one or more binders, and an oil using a compounder/extruder.

A bamboo and/or vegetable cane composite decking and process of manufacturing. The composite decking includes planks formed from a core of bamboo fibers and a polymer layer that covers the top, bottom, and opposing side surfaces of the core. The core includes mats of bamboo fibers stacked together into layers such that the vegetable fibers extend generally parallel to the axial direction of the core. The polymer layer includes a polymer material that protects the vegetable fibers within the core from environmental damage and provides impact resistance to increase the longevity and durability of the plank. The polymer layer can also include bamboo fibers and/or dust that are mixed in with the polymer material to further increase the toughness and durability of the polymer layer.

A rubber composition for a tire comprises 100 parts by mass of a rubber component comprising diene rubber, and from 0.5 to 20 parts by mass of pellets comprising paper powder and starch and having water content of 5 mass % or more. A tire is provided with a tread rubber part comprising a foamed rubber formed by the rubber composition. A method for manufacturing a tire comprises mixing from 0.5 to 20 parts by mass of pellets comprising paper powder and starch and having water content of 5 mass % or more with 100 parts by mass of a rubber component comprising diene rubber to prepare a rubber composition, producing an unvulcanized tire using the rubber composition obtained, and vulcanization molding the unvulcanized tire.

A pallet includes a cargo layer and a base layer, and a plurality of support block assemblies separating the cargo and base layers. Each support block assembly includes a first support block with a first opening extending therethrough in a horizontal direction, and a second support block inserted into the first opening of the first support block.
