An optical part includes a lens and a holder having the lens fixed thereto. The holder is a cylindrical member including a front surface, a back surface, an outer peripheral surface, and an inner peripheral surface. The back surface contacts the lens, and part of the inner peripheral surface penetrates the lens.

The present invention provides a decorative sheet that excels in moldability and a decorative resin-molded article that uses the decorative sheet and that excels in chemical resistance. In the decorative sheet, at least a substrate layer and a surface protection layer formed of an ionizing radiation curable resin composition are stacked. The surface protection layer includes blocked isocyanate.

The present invention provides an assembly comprising a thermally conductive thermoplastic polymer as a heat sink to provide thermal management for an electrical/electronic component and a reaction injection molded (RIM) polyurethane to replace the potting compound typically used in such assemblies. In addition to replacing the potting compound, the cured polyurethane forms the part, such as the base of the LED bulb, which heretofore has been a separate component, thus reducing the number of components and saving a production step.

Textured hardcoat films are disclosed for preferable use in film insert moulding. Texture in the hardcoat film is created through the use of a textured protective overlayer, which can impart texture to the curable coating of the hardcoat film. This process preferably avoids the need to alter the composition of the curable coating to allow for texture and preferably produces a hardcoat film with a matte and reduced-glare finish. An apparatus and a method embodying the invention are disclosed.

A method of making an iridescent, vehicular trim assembly is provided that includes: molding a polymeric base comprising an exterior surface; and over-molding an element over at least a portion of the exterior surface. The element comprises a polymeric, translucent material and an exterior surface with an integral diffraction grating having a thickness from 250 to 1000 nm and a period from 50 nanometers to 5 microns. Further, the molding can be conducted such that the polymeric base is molded with a tint. The method can also include forming a plated region over the exterior surface of the base. In addition, the method can also include cleaning the plated region with a plasma-etching process before the over-molding.

A display device includes a window member and a display module coupled to the window member. The window member includes a first resin layer and a second resin layer. The first resin layer is on the display module and has a first elongation, a first thickness, and a first hardness. The second resin layer is on the display module and the first resin layer and has a second elongation smaller than the first elongation, a second thickness greater than the first thickness, and a second hardness greater than the first hardness.

A hollow fiber membrane is formed by embedding a braid having a spiral open weave of monofilaments only, to avoid a whiskering problem. The open weave is characterized by contiguous, circumferential, rhomboid-shaped areas of polymer film separated by monofilaments. When the braid is supported on a plasticized PVA cable having a scalloped periphery, the braid can be infiltrated with membrane polymer which, when coagulated, embeds the braid positioning it around the lumen. The embedded spiral weave, free of any circumferentially constricting monofilament, allows the membrane to be biaxially distensible. The membrane has give not only in the axial or longitudinal direction but also in the radial direction. Give in the radial direction permits soiled membranes to be backwashed under higher pressure than in a comparable braid which is not radially distensible.

A new method for fully automatically manufacturing a fluid container with a pressure unit is described, which pressure unit is mounted in a fluid container. In a station the high-pressure container of the pressure unit is mounted with the closure and the bottom part and is clamped at the upper and lower ends by clamping means and is rotated by rotating means associated with the clamping means. The rotating pressure unit is welded by first laser means and by second laser means, whereas the laser beam of the first laser means being directed to a first joint area of the bottom part of the pressure unit with the container, and the laser beam of the second laser means being directed to a second joint area of the bottom part of the pressure unit with the container, which first and second joint area are separated at a distance to each other

Provided is a conductive composition for molded film that enables production of a molded film for which tensile force-induced reductions in conductivity are suppressed. The conductive composition for molded film contains a resin (A), conductive fine particles (B), and a solvent (C), wherein the solvent (C) contains, in 100 parts by mass of the solvent (C), at least 40 parts by mass of a solvent (C) that satisfies the following condition (1) and condition (2). (1) A boiling point of 180? C. to 270? C. (2) At least one of the following is satisfied: the polar parameter ?p of the Hansen solubility parameter (HSP) is 0??p?5.0, and the hydrogen-bond parameter ?h of the Hansen solubility parameter (HSP) is 9.8??h?4.0.
