A method for manufacturing a polyester film for embossing that is made from a recycled polyester material. A part of the recycled polyester material is physically reproduced to obtain physically regenerated polyester chips. The physically regenerated polyester chips include physically regenerated regular polyester chips. Another part of the recycled polyester material is chemically reproduced to obtain chemically regenerated polyester chips. The chemically regenerated polyester chips include chemically regenerated regular polyester chips and chemically regenerated electrostatic pinning polyester chips. The physically regenerated polyester chips and the chemically regenerated polyester chips are mixed to form a base material. The base material is used to form a base layer that having a main component of regenerated polyethylene terephthalate. A surface coating layer is formed onto the base layer. A material of the surface coating layer includes a main resin, fillers, and melamine.

The present invention relates to a primer composition that achieves excellent adhesion to poorly adhesive materials. Specifically, the present invention relates to a primer composition that includes (A) benzophenone, (B) a compound that has at least 2 benzene rings and a molecular weight of at least 190, and (C) a solvent.

The present invention provides a chitosan-based composition that can be converted into a self-supporting casted object having good tensile and compressive strength that can also biodegrade at the end of its lifecycle. The composition comprises entirely bio-based or bio-sourced reagents that can be converted to the final product via a polymerization process that does not require the addition of inorganic catalysts, synthetic materials, or otherwise hazardous chemicals to strengthen or modify its water resistance.
