A screen protector application kit includes a glass-based substrate (110) having an adhesive belt (270) and an adhesive container (478) of an uncured adhesive composition. The adhesive belt (270) includes a first major surface (272) adhered to the glass-based substrate (110), a second major surface (274), a distal edge (276) extending between the first major surface (272) and the second major surface (274), and a proximal edge (278) extending between the first major surface (272) and the second major surface (274). The uncured adhesive composition includes 30 wt % to 99.9 wt % of at least one of: (i) a monomer; and (ii) an oligomer; and 0.01 wt % to 10 wt % of a visible-light photoinitiator. The uncured adhesive composition may further include 0.1 wt % to 10 wt % of a co-initiator. The uncured adhesive composition may further include 0.1 wt % to 5 wt % of an oxygen inhibitor.

A resin composition including a polyester polyurethane resin (A); and an epoxy resin (B), in which a molecular weight per a urethane bond of the polyester polyurethane resin (A) is from 200 to 8,000, and a layered body including a resin composition layer, a layered body, a flexible copper-clad laminate, a flexible flat cable, or an electromagnetic wave shielding film, each using the resin composition.

An auxetic member for load bearing structures has a section including a plurality of structural units, and a top layer provided at a top end of the section and a bottom layer provided at a bottom end of the section. The structural units includes ribs with parallel surfaces and ribs with re-entrant surfaces and the ribs with parallel surfaces of the structural units are oriented at an angle a relative to a horizontal plane, the structural unit including a void enclosed by the ribs with parallel surfaces and ribs with re-entrant surfaces. The member is characterized in that the void of the structural units is filled with a packing material for improving load bearing capacity.

A structural reinforcement for an article including a carrier that includes: (i) a mass of polymeric material having an outer surface; and (ii) at least one consolidated fibrous insert (14) having an outer surface and including at least one elongated fiber arrangement having a plurality of ordered fibers arranged in a predetermined manner. The fibrous insert is envisioned to adjoin the mass of the polymeric material in a predetermined location for carrying a predetermined load that is subjected upon the predetermined location (thereby effectively providing localized reinforcement to that predetermined location). The fibrous insert and the mass of polymeric material are of compatible materials, structures or both, for allowing the fibrous insert to be at least partially joined to the mass of the polymeric material. Disposed upon at least a portion of the carrier may be a mass of activatable material.

To suppress damage such as the formation of holes and wrinkles in laminated bodies constituting a bag. A bag having a storage section includes: laminated bodies that include a sealant film positioned on an inner surface of the bag and at least one plastic film positioned on an outer surface side of the sealant film; and a seal section where inner surfaces of one pair of laminated bodies are joined together. The seal section has an outer edge seal part that is positioned along an outer edge of the bag, and a steam-releasing seal part that is positioned closer to a center point side of the storage section than the outer edge seal part and peels off due to an increase in pressure in the storage section. The steam-releasing seal part peels off when the pressure in the storage section is 130 kPa or lower.

An exemplary multi-dimensional load structure may include a base panel having a tiered structure with an upper layer, a lower layer, and at least one interior layer therebetween. The load structure may also have a glass layer applied to at least surfaces of each of the upper layer, the lower layer, and the at least one interior layer not in contact with an adjacent layer. The load structure may further have a coating applied to the exterior of the glass layer. The at least one interior layer may be configured to withstand a greater compressive force than the upper layer and the lower layer and/or the upper layer and the lower layer may be lighter than the at least one interior layer.

Due to the increased glazed area of modern vehicles, especially the large panoramic glass roofs, we have seen a substantial growth in the use of anti-reflective coatings. Unfortunately, these types of coatings accentuate fingerprints and smudges. The invention provides an automotive glazing which is substantially resistant to fingerprints, and a method of manufacture thereof through the application of an anti-fingerprint coating based on low surface energy silanes.
