The present invention relates to a visibility improving film for a display panel and a display device including the same. More specifically, the present invention relates to a visibility improving film for a display panel capable of enhancing the visibility of a laser pointer and exhibiting excellent physical and optical properties, particularly preventing a specular reflection phenomenon of a laser pointer light, by including fine metal particles and inorganic oxide fine particles dispersed in a photocurable resin layer.

An object of the present invention is to more conveniently provide a copolyester for a polyester film which exhibits excellent dimensional stability and in particular excellent dimensional stability against environmental changes in, for example, temperature and humidity, and has a small film elongation percentage at 110° C. A copolyester of the present invention comprises: (A) an aromatic dicarboxylic acid component; (B) an alkylene glycol component; and (C1) a dimer acid component and/or (C2) a dimer diol component, wherein the copolyester contains, with reference to a molar number of a total dicarboxylic acid component, 0.5 to 3.5 mol % of the dimer acid component (C1) and/or 0.3 to 5.0 mol % of the dimer diol component (C2).

A polyester film comprising a polymeric phosphonate flame retardant in an amount of from about 1.0 to about 25.0 wt % by total weight of the film and further comprising at least one metal cation selected from the group consisting of Group I and Group II metal cations.

In one embodiment, the disclosure provides a film, which may be oriented, cast, or blown, that includes a core layer having a first side and a second side, wherein the core layer comprises hydrocarbon resin and polypropylene. Further, the film may include a first tie layer on the first side, wherein the first tie layer consists of polypropylene and about 5% or less of additives with exclusion of hydrocarbon resin (“HCR”), wherein the polypropylene is standard-crystalline polypropylene, high-crystalline polypropylene, or a mixture thereof, but preferably, it is a majority of high-crystalline polypropylene. Further still, the film may include a first skin layer on the first tie layer, and, also a coating on the first skin layer, wherein the coating comprises acrylic or acetate polymers or combinations thereof. The film maintains a minimum seal temperature of 300 g in.sup.−1 seal strength as compared to the film without any HCR.

A cellulose ester composition is provided comprising at least one cellulose ester and at least one impact modifier and optionally at least one plasticizer. Processes for producing the cellulose ester compositions as well as articles made using these compositions, such as eyeglass frames, automotive parts, and toys are also provided.

The present invention refers to a new multilayered material, reinforced with fibres and having an improved adhesion between the layers throughout its entire structure; to a process for its preparation and to the articles made with such material, intended to be exposed to adverse conditions, such as strong winds, stretching, temperature changes, such as for example sails for boat.

The laminated film comprising a coating layer and an inorganic thin film layer on one surface of a substrate film, wherein the laminated film satisfies the following requirements (a) to (f): (a) the substrate film contains 50% by weight or more and 95% by weight or less of a polyester resin recycled from PET bottles; (b) a surface hardness of an inorganic thin film layer surface of the laminated film is 120 N/mm.sup.2 or less; (c) the coating layer contains a resin having an oxazoline group or a carbodiimide group as a constituent component; (d) a content rate of an isophthalic acid component relative to a total dicarboxylic acid component in a whole polyester resin constituting the substrate film is 0.5 mol % or more and 5.0 mol % or less; (e) both a coefficient of static friction μs and a coefficient of dynamic friction μd of the inorganic thin film layer surface/an opposite surface of the laminated film are within a range of 0.20 to 0.40; and (f) an arithmetic average roughness Ra of the laminated film in a 2-μm square range is within a range of 2.0 to 6.0 nm.

A film including: an organic polymeric substrate having a first major surface and a second major surface; an optional acrylic hardcoat layer disposed on the first major surface of the substrate; a siliceous primer layer disposed on the organic polymeric substrate or on the optional acrylic hardcoat layer, wherein the siliceous primer layer includes silica nanoparticles modified by an organic silane; and a superhydrophilic surface layer disposed on the siliceous primer layer, wherein the superhydrophilic surface layer includes hydrophilic-functional groups.

The invention particularly relates to a method of applying a permanent coating to a plastic surface of a first part, comprising the following steps: applying to said plastic surface a layer of a polyamide-based hot-melt material, maintaining this layer of hot-melt material on said plastic surface for a period of time ranging from a few minutes to several hours, removing this layer of hot-melt material from this plastic surface; and applying a permanent coating to said surface, said permanent coating being based on polyurethane, an epoxy resin or polyesters, a polycarbonate and/or an acrylic resin; as well as the use of such a method in the automotive industry.
