Disclosed is a semi-finished lens that includes a blank formed in a first material having a first hardness, the blank having an outline, a first face and a second face configured to be surfaced so as to constitute a first optical face of the ophthalmic lens, and a top layer formed in a second material having a second hardness greater than the first hardness, the top layer having an outline, a first face and a second face, the second face of the top layer being arranged on the first face of the blank. The outline of the top layer is equal to or included in the outline of the blank, and satisfies to a predetermined dimensional selection criterion involving the final outline of the ophthalmic lens.

The claimed invention provides a method for molding a decorative cup with a hard exterior shell and a molded cup with a hard exterior shell such that the ink of the decoration and the adhesive are encapsulated between the molding material and the hard exterior shell.

Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to vent adaptor assemblies including a vent adaptor, methods of making such vent adaptor assemblies, method of using such vent adaptor assemblies, and urinary drainage bag systems including such vent adaptor assemblies. In an embodiment, a vent adaptor assembly includes a filter that is configured to permit gas (e.g., air) to flow therethrough, while simultaneously at least partially preventing fluid present within the vent adaptor assembly (e.g., urine) from flowing therethrough.

A decorative sheet decorates a molded-article body in which a fiber-reinforced part, which constitutes a molded article with the molded-article body and contains a matrix resin having fibers and an epoxy group, is exposed to a surface. The decorative sheet includes an adhesive layer containing an amino-group-containing compound, the adhesive layer having an amino group that reacts with the matrix resin when bonding with the fiber-reinforced part. The decorative sheet also includes a decorative layer disposed on the adhesive layer and for decorating the surface of the molded-article body. The decorative sheet also includes a base film that is disposed on the decorative layer and has a polycarbonate-resin layer containing a polycarbonate resin and an inner-side acrylic-resin layer containing an acrylic resin. The inner-side acrylic-resin layer is disposed on the decorative layer, and the polycarbonate-resin layer is disposed on the inner-side acrylic-resin layer.

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 method of producing a decorative radome includes providing a substrate having a first surface and a second surface; applying, to at least a portion of the second surface of the substrate, a decorative layer including a layer of a metal or an alloy having a metal and a metalloid; and overmolding at least the decorative layer with a radio-transmissive polymer to provide an overmolded layer as well as a decorative radome having a first layer with a radio-transmissive polymer, the first layer having a front surface; a second layer having a radio-transmissive polymer, the second layer having a rear surface; and a decorative layer, between at least a portion of the first and second layer.

Disclosed is a method for making a lens for a vehicle light. The process involves the growth of a clear or translucent ink on a clear or transparent substrate. The deposited ink forms light-modifying optical elements on the lens, which is then incorporated into a vehicle light assembly.

A laser welding member that has a high laser transmittance at a welding region and exhibits an excellent laser welding processability, and a molded article obtained by laser welding using this laser welding member. The laser welding member is obtained by injection molding of a thermoplastic polyester resin material, wherein a region to be laser welded in the member is at a location separated by a distance of at least 15 mm from a gate of an injection molding mold and has at least 30% of a light transmittance of laser light with a wavelength of 940 nm.

An adhesive for bonding comprising a blocked isocyanate and organic carbonate, and optionally a phenoxy resin, catalyst, metal acetylacetonate, and a process for using such an adhesive to bond elastomers, such as liquid silicone rubber to substrates, such as polycarbonate in an injection molding process.

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 monofilament. 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.
