A multilayered polymeric film for covering an agricultural structure or greenhouse is described herein, wherein the film contains adjacent layers that are capable of delamination from one another. A method of covering an agricultural structure or greenhouse with the multilayered polymeric film can comprise inserting gas between adjacent layers of the film.

A cementitious composite includes a first layer, a second layer spaced from the first layer, a cementitious mixture disposed between the first layer and the second layer, and a structure layer disposed between the first layer and the second layer. The cementitious mixture is disposed within the structure layer. The cementitious mixture includes cementitious materials. The cementitious mixture is configured to absorb a mass of water that provides a maximum 28 day compressive strength of the cementitious composite upon curing which is represented by M.sub.w=x.Math.M.sub.c. M.sub.w is the mass of water per unit area of the cementitious composite. M.sub.c is a mass of cementitious materials of the cementitious mixture per unit area of the cementitious composite. x is a ratio of the mass of water relative to the mass of cementitious materials of the cementitious mixture per unit area of the cementitious composite. x is between 0.25 and 0.55.

A polycarbonate resin composition may include a first polycarbonate resin and a second polycarbonate resin, which a molded article may include, and a multilayer body may have a resin layer A including the polycarbonate resin composition and a resin layer B including a resin different from the resin layer A. The first polycarbonate resin may include 40% by weight or more of a structural unit of formula (1)

##STR00001##

The second polycarbonate resin may include less than 40% by weight of the structural unit of formula (1). The weight ratio of the first polycarbonate resin to the second polycarbonate resin, the first polycarbonate resin/the second polycarbonate resin, may be in a range of from 55/45 to 99/1. The polycarbonate resin composition may have two or more glass transition temperatures.

A fibrous multilayer sheet structure comprising at least one discontinuous fibrous layer having first and second surfaces and at least one layer of continuous melt spun fibers on the first surface of at least one of the at least one discontinuous fibrous layers wherein the fibers of the discontinuous fibrous layer are not melt blown fibers.

There is provided a hybrid turf support for use with natural grass to form a stable hybrid turf system, the hybrid turf support comprising a knitted reticulated support; and a plurality of grass-like fibers extending upwardly from the knitted reticulated support, the grass-like fibers comprising groups of fibers extending upwardly at intervals.

The present disclosure includes various methods of wrapping an item, such as harvested agricultural material, including steps such as unrolling a wrapping material portion from a roll of wrapping material portions, the unrolling starting at a leading end of the wrapping material portion and continuing along a length of the portion towards a trailing end of the portion, each wrapping material portion including a base film, a first adhesive substrate including a bottom adhesive surface attached to a first side of the base film of the wrapping material portion adjacent to the perforation, an outwardly facing first adhesive surface covered by a first release liner with a second adhesive surface facing outwardly and attached to a second side of the base film of the wrapping material portion when on the roll, and further unrolling the wrapping material portion from the roll of wrapping material portions such that the first release liner separates from the first adhesive surface, the first release liner remaining attached to the second side of the base film of the wrapping material portion and the first adhesive surface remaining attached to the first side of the base film of the wrapping material portion. Wrapping material portions may be connected to one another by perforations.
