A laminated substrate obtained by laminating a carbon fiber reinforced resin substrate (a) containing a carbon fiber and a thermoplastic resin fiber and a glass fiber reinforced resin substrate (B) containing a glass fiber and a thermoplastic resin, wherein a content of the carbon fiber in the carbon fiber reinforced resin substrate (a) is 20% by mass or more and less than 100% by mass with respect to a total mass of the carbon fiber reinforced resin substrate (a), and the carbon fiber reinforced resin substrate (a) has an elongation percentage of from 20% to 150% at a maximum load point in a MD direction at a temperature of a melting point of a resin constituting the thermoplastic resin fiber+20° C., an elongation percentage of from 20% to 150% at a maximum load point in a TD direction, and a tensile stress of 1.0×10.sup.−3 to 1.0×10.sup.−1 MPa.

A method for making an accessory cladding element for use in architecture and design. The method provides preparing an elastically deformable support element, including a first outer surface, in particular a decorated surface, a second outer surface and a plurality of spacer elements placed between the two surfaces. An impermeable and removable layer is applied on the first outer surface to protect at least a part thereof. Then a fluid cement mixture is prepared and introduced into the support element to obtain a cement-based composite structure in a deformable state. The excess fluid cement mixture is removed from the support element. The cement-based composite structure in the deformable state is positioned in a forming device which gives it the desired shape. The composite structure is solidified and after the removable layer is removed.

The breathable sheet of the present invention is comprised of a 4-methyl-1-pentene-based polymer or a resin composition containing the 4-methyl-1-pentene-based polymer as a main component. In addition, the breathable sheet of the present invention is preferably selected from the group consisting of a net, a mesh, a non-woven fabric, a woven fabric, and a perforated sheet.

An acrylic multilayer foil includes a layer A in which silica particles are uniformly distributed in an acrylic polymer matrix and a coating layer D. Due to adhesive promoting properties of the layer A containing silica particles, the coating layer D can be advantageously applied onto the layer A. The foil has a high weathering resistance and excellent mechanical properties. Therefore, the foil is highly suitable for surface-protection of materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and for use in high-pressure laminates (HPLs).

A multi-layer article of woven fabric includes a woven base layer; a woven mesh layer, disposed above the base layer, the mesh layer utilizing a first common warp for each one of a plurality of stacked wefts; and a woven binding layer, disposed above the mesh layer. The base layer and the binding layer share a second common warp.

An illustrative embodiment of a manufactured surface component may be comprised of a textile material on a first face and an elastomer material on a second face, wherein said elastomer material is bonded to said textile material, wherein said manufactured surface component is substantially planarly configured, wherein an area of said first face and said second face is from about 0.04 square inches to about 4.0 square inches, wherein a thickness of said manufactured surface component is from about 0.3 mm to about 2.5 mm, and wherein said manufactured surface component is substantially free of any petrochemical-derived plastics, petrochemicals, and toxins.

Provided is a glass laminate article including a core substrate having a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, and a side surface between the first surface and the second surface; a first metal sheet on the first surface; a second metal sheet on the second surface; a glass substrate on the second metal sheet; and an adhesive member bonding the glass substrate to the second metal sheet, wherein the core substrate has lower thermal conductivity than a medium density fiberboard (MDF).

A laminated glass comprises first and second glass sheets and a ply of interlayer material disposed therebetween, a conductive strip disposed on the ply of interlayer material, a connector arranged at an edge of the second glass sheet, a ceramic ink layer on a surface of the second glass sheet not facing the ply of interlayer material and partly obscuring the conductive strip, a gap in the ceramic ink layer configured so that the conductive strip is in contact with the connector in the gap. Also, there is a method for manufacturing the laminated glass and use of the laminated glazing.

A toilet seat assembly including a seat or a seat and a lid, where the seat or the seat and the lid are made of a polymer material, wherein the polymer material includes to an extent of 40-99.5 wt % at least one biopolymer, the polymer material including fibers and/or at least one organic or inorganic particulate filler, the fraction of the fibers and/or of the filler being between 0.5-60.0 wt %.

Extruded molds and methods for manufacturing composite structures using the extruded molds are disclosed. The molds may include recessed or raised longitudinal features to impart a corresponding shape to the molded composite structures. The composite structures may be panels used to construct cargo vehicles, for example.
