A transparent heat-insulating film is provided, wherein the transparent heat-insulating film includes a base layer including a first surface and a second surface, a hard-coat layer, a silver nanowire layer, and a protective layer including an inner surface and an outer surface. The hard-coat layer and the silver nanowire layer are disposed between the first surface of the base layer and the inner surface of the protective layer. A temperature of the second surface of the base layer is T1 (° C.), a temperature of the outer surface of the protective layer is T2 (° C.), and a temperature difference between T1 and T2 (T1−T2) is ΔT. When T1=50-100° C. and the base layer and the protective layer reach thermal equilibrium, ΔT=0.15T1−0.35T1.

Devices including a substrate and a plurality of coil portions disposed on the substrate. The plurality of coil portions electrically coupled to form a coil structure.

Provided is an oriented electrical steel sheet including: a forsterite film formed on one side or both sides of an oriented electrical steel sheet substrate; and a ceramic layer formed on an entire or partial region of the forsterite film. Provided is a manufacturing method for an oriented electrical steel sheet including: preparing an oriented electrical steel sheet having a forsterite film formed on one surface or both surfaces thereof; and forming a ceramic layer by spraying ceramic powder on the forsterite film.

An automobile interior trim includes: a resin core member formed to have a predetermined shape; a surface member bonded to a front surface of the resin core member; a plurality of reinforcement ribs provided at a back surface of the resin core member in a width direction of the resin core member; and a recess formed at an upper end surface of each of the reinforcement ribs as means for setting a terminal part of the resin core member as a base point of rupture so that, when a side airbag deploys on the back surface side of the resin core member, the terminal part of the resin core member ruptures by force of the deployment. A slit is formed at the terminal part of the surface member adjacent to the base point of the rupture of the resin core member.

Various embodiments for a pad that may be combined with other similar pads to form a padding layer of an athletic field, or other surface, are disclosed. The pad includes a top surface and a bottom surface. Bottom-side projections are positioned on the bottom surface of the pad. Water channels are positioned on the bottom surface of the pad defined as a recessed area between individual ones of the bottom-side projections. A drainage hole is positioned in at least one of the bottom-side projections such that the drainage hole does not connect with any of the water channels on the bottom surface. The drainage hole may be at least partially coupled to projection channels on the bottom-side projections, where the projection channels act as a water vacuum to facilitate air circulation and vertical water evacuation relative to the drainage hole.

A method of fabricating a composite material, the method comprises the steps of a) providing a first layer of a fibre reinforced polymer, preferably a thermoset FRP, b) providing an array of thermoplastic islands across at least a proportion of a major surface of the first layer, c) providing a second layer of a fibre reinforced polymer, preferably a thermoset FRP, d) laying the second layer over at least some of the islands, and e) securing the first and second layers together. There is also disclosed a composite which comprises a first layer of a fibre reinforced polymer and a second layer of a fibre reinforced polymer, between which is an intervening layer comprising an array of thermoplastic islands.

The present invention is an assembly layer for a flexible device. The assembly layer is derived from precursors that include about 0 to about 50 wt % C.sub.1-C.sub.9 alkyl(meth)acrylate, about 40 to about 99 wt % C.sub.10-C.sub.24 (meth)acrylate, about 0 to about 30 wt % hydroxyl(meth)acrylate, about 0 to about 10 wt % of a non-hydroxy functional polar monomer, and about 0 to about 5 wt % crosslinker.

A method is described herein of making a textured glass article where the method includes: providing a glass substrate having an initial primary surface and an opposing primary surface; disposing a protective coating on at least one of the initial primary surface or the opposing primary surface; and etching the glass substrate with a hydrofluoric acid-free etchant having a pH of about 7 or less to form a leached layer in the glass substrate.

A vacuum insulated cabinet structure includes first and second cover members having pre-deformed portions and perimeter portions. The perimeter portions of the first and second cover members are disposed along first and second planar levels and the pre-deformed portions of the first and second cover members include portions thereof extending outwardly relative to the first and second planar levels. A thermal bridge interconnects the first cover member and the second cover member at the perimeter portions thereof to define an insulating cavity therebetween. The insulating cavity is a sealed cavity having a vacuum drawn therefrom. The pre-deformed portions of the first and second cover members move inwardly towards the first and second planar levels under a force of the vacuum within the insulating cavity.

A multilayer barrier film for food packaging comprises an outer layer comprising a first polymeric material having a moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR) of greater than or equal to 10 gram.Math.mil/100 in.sup.2/day; a first inner layer adjacent to the outer layer, the first inner layer comprising a first retortable grade ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) copolymer; a second inner layer adjacent to the first inner layer, the second inner layer comprising a second polymeric material having a moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR) of greater than or equal to 10 gram.Math.mil/100 in.sup.2/day; a third inner layer adjacent to the second inner layer, the third inner layer comprising a second retortable grade EVOH copolymer; and a sealing layer adjacent to the third inner layer; wherein the first polymeric material is not a retortable grade EVOH copolymer. Excellent recovery of oxygen barrier over time is achieved by these films and retortable containers made therefrom.
