The present invention relates to a flooring material including: a base material layer as a stone plastic composite (SPC) core; a color film layer formed on top of the base material layer to provide a given color and pattern; a wear layer formed on top of the color film layer to provide a corrosion resistance; a UV resistant layer formed on top of the wear layer to provide surface protection; and a pad layer formed on the underside of the base material layer to provide shock absorption and sound absorption.

A cleaning card for cleaning a media transport device includes a card comprising a substantially planar surface that extends along a machine direction and a transverse direction. A first raised surface element comprises a surface that extends from a first side of the card. The first raised surface element comprises a first scraping element that is positioned on the surface of the first raised surface element between a forward edge and a peak of the first raised surface element.

A glass fastening system includes a glass portion, a support structure defining a recess, a first adhesive layer disposed on an exterior surface of the glass portion facing the recess in the support structure, a second adhesive layer disposed within the recess of the support structure, and a fastener having a first portion secured to the first adhesive layer and a second portion extending away from the first portion and into the second adhesive layer to secure the glass portion to the support structure.

Waterproof engineered floor and wall planks have a veneer layer bonded with a plastic composite core, and an underlayer, preferably an underlayer of cork.

External thermal insulation composite systems described herein include a concrete or masonry wall and a multilayer thermal insulation board disposed on the concrete or masonry wall. The multilayer thermal insulation board includes at least one closed cell foam layer comprising polyurethane and polyisocyanurate having an open cell volume of less than 20% by volume according to ASTM D 6226 and at least one open cell foam layer comprising polyurethane and polyisocyanurate having an open cell volume of greater than 80% by volume according to ASTM D 6226.

A laminated composite article having a core component and laminate sheet. The laminate sheet is disposed and overlying at least a portion of the core component. The laminate sheet includes a wear layer and an ink layer. The laminate sheet includes UV absorbers. The UV absorbers are arranged and disposed to provide ink stability to the ink layer. Methods for forming the laminated composite article are also disclosed.

The present disclosure provides a transparent elastic composite film, which includes a first film layer; a thermoplastic polyurethane layer; and a second film layer; wherein the first film layer and the second film layer have a crosslinked network structure; the first film layer includes acrylic resin and aliphatic polyisocyanate, wherein the acrylic resin includes hydroxyl-containing acrylic resin, and a weight ratio of the acrylic resin to the aliphatic polyisocyanate is 1/1 to 1/1.2, and a weight ratio of the hydroxyl-containing acrylic resin to the acrylic resin is 0.1/1 to 0.18/1.

A sports board incorporating reclaimed/reused sports board materials, and a method of making a such a sports board, allows for incorporation of portions of used (recycled) composite sports boards (or waste from the manufacture thereof) into new sports boards. This lessens the accumulation of composite sports board waste in the global environment, reduces the quantity of new virgin materials needed in the manufacture of new composite sports boards, and lessens the environmental impact of composite sports board manufacture and use. Optionally, the reclaimed sports board material may be incorporated into a new sports board in a manner providing structural enhancements (e.g., increased regional stiffness) to new sports boards. This may allow for structural enhancement while avoiding a significant increase in sports board weight, by incorporating used composite materials into new composite sports boards.

The present invention relates to a method for applying textile to a plane metal substrate, the method comprising the steps of: providing a coiled plane metal substrate; unwinding the coiled plane metal substrate; applying a further adhesive layer onto a top surface of the plane metal substrate; and laminating a layered laminate comprising a carrier film, an intermediate adhesive layer, and a textile top layer onto the top surface of the plane metal substrate, the carrier film contacting the further adhesive, thereby forming a laminated assembly. The invention further relates to a laminated assembly obtainable by the method.

Multilayer polymer sheets are provided, as well as related methods, systems, and appliances.
