A vehicle sandwich component with a layered construction having a honeycomb structure. The honeycomb structure may have a first lower honeycomb layer and a second upper honeycomb layer, the first lower honeycomb layer has at least one edge portion protruding laterally in the transverse direction beyond the second upper honeycomb layer, and a central honeycomb layer region or compression region which has a reduced thickness, achieved by compression, in relation to the edge portion and on which the second upper honeycomb layer is provided. Also, method for producing a vehicle-sandwich component of this type.

Provided is a self-adhesive sheet including a 4-methyl-1-pentene-based polymer. In the self-adhesive sheet, it is preferable that at least one or more temperatures showing a local maximum value of a loss tangent (tan δ) , which is obtained by dynamic viscoelasticity measurement under conditions of a temperature rising rate of 4° C./min, a frequency of 1.59 Hz, and a strain amount of 0.1%, are present in a range of 10° C. or higher and 100° C. or lower, the local maximum value of the loss tangent is 0.5 or more and 3.5 or less, an arithmetic average roughness Ra on one surface of the self-adhesive sheet is in a range of 0.01 to 10 .Math.m, and a ten-point average roughness Rz is in a range of 0.1 to 50 .Math.m.

A method of forming a retaining device with hooks, wherein: a molding strip is provided that presents an inside face and an outside face, and that has a plurality of cavities, each cavity defining a stem extending from the outside face towards the inside face and including an end forming a head that extends from the stem towards the inside face of the molding strip; the molding strip is positioned on rotary drive means, the inside face of the molding strip being arranged to bear against the drive means; and molding material is dispensed against the outside face of the molding strip.

Various enhancements of tabbed seals are provided herein with enhanced tab functionality. Such enhancements include a lacquer coating, such as one-part and two-part coatings, which can help minimize tab sticking to the lower laminate. Further, the lacquer can help decrease air bubbles under the tab and also provide visual enhancements to the tab.

The invention provides a method for fabricating a spacer fabric composite having a pattern, fabricating machine and composite fabricated by method thereof. The method comprises a film forming step, a patterning step, a laminating step and a hole opening step.

The invention relates to a multilayer biaxially oriented polyester film comprising a base layer B, an amorphous outer layer A and a further outer layer C, where this polyester film is suitable for lamination with metal sheets. The invention in particular relates to a polyester film which comprises (based on the mass of polyester) from 2 to 15% by weight of isophthalate-derived units in the base layer and which comprises more than 19% by weight of isophthalate-derived units in the amorphous layer A, and which has a silane-based coating on the outer layer A. The invention further relates to a process for the production of these films.

A method of forming a retaining device with hooks, wherein: a molding strip is provided that presents an inside face and an outside face, and that has a plurality of cavities, each cavity defining a stem extending from the outside face towards the inside face and including an end forming a head that extends from the stem towards the inside face of the molding strip; and the molding strip is positioned on rotary drive means, comprising at least two rollers, the inside face of the molding strip being arranged to bear against the drive means.

A protective cover member includes a laminate including: a protective membrane having a shape configured to cover an opening when the protective cover member is placed on the face of an object; a substrate film joined to the protective membrane; and a first adhesive layer configured to fix the protective cover member to the face, wherein an outer peripheral surface of the protective cover member has a step in a laminating direction of the laminate, a first portion of the protective cover member protrudes at the step more outward than a second portion of the protective cover member does when the protective cover member is placed on the face, the first portion being positioned farther from the face than the step, the second portion being positioned closer to the face than the step, and the protective membrane and the substrate film are positioned in the first portion.

A resin-coated metal sheet for can lids includes a metal sheet coated with thermoplastic resin films on both surfaces and formed into a can lid. A thermoplastic resin film A based on polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is heat-fused on a surface of the metal sheet serving as an exterior surface of the can lid, and a thermoplastic resin film B based on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is heat-fused on a surface of the metal sheet serving as an interior surface of the can lid. A composition ratio (wt %) of PBT/PET in the thermoplastic resin film A on the exterior surface is (PBT/PET)=(40/60) to (80/20), and the thermoplastic resin film B on the interior surface includes 95 mol % or more of PET.

A flexible closure element for a closure of a medical or orthopedic product or sports product includes a first and second elastic cover layer and a sheet-type stabilizing element therebetween. The sheet-type stabilizing element is slotted over a least half of a length of the stabilizing element on at least one of two longitudinally running edges.
