This disclosure describes inflatable articles such as airbags for inflatable safety devices for a vehicle passenger-protecting system, a process for manufacturing said inflatable articles, hydrosilylation curable silicone elastomer compositions and their uses in assembling said inflatable safety devices. The composition used comprised an organopolysiloxane based additive which comprises at least one, alternatively at least two Si—H groups per molecule and at least one, alternatively at least two functional groups per molecule, selected from anhydride groups and epoxy groups.

A B-stage thermoset adhesive composition comprises components a) and b) in respective amounts of 10 to 40 percent by weight to 60 to 90 percent by weight. Component a) comprises at least one thermoplastic elastomer comprising a styrenic block copolymer. Component b) comprises a polymerized reaction product of at least one capable of undergoing ring-opening metathesis polymerization and at least one ring-opening olefin metathesis catalyst. A composite article including the B-stage thermoset adhesive and methods of making the composite article are also disclosed.

An objective is to provide a stretchable conductor sheet which is useful as a material for electrical wiring and electrodes for garment-type electronic devices, the material having excellent durability in terms of washing and durability in terms of perspiration. A fabric provided with an electrode and an electrical wiring, which are formed from a stretchable conductor sheet, is obtained by: providing a film having releasability with a first stretchable conductor layer which is formed from a paste material that uses carbon-based particles as a conductive filler, while using a flexible resin as a binder resin; subsequently forming a second stretchable conductor layer, while using metal-based particles as a conductive filler; laminating a hot melt adhesive layer thereon; superposing the resulting laminate on a fabric after removing unnecessary parts from the laminate by means of partial slits; and subjecting the resulting fabric to hot pressing. Since the carbon-based particles adsorb a contamination substance of the metal-based particles, oxidation degradation and sulfuration degradation of the metal-based particles is reduced, thereby improving the durability.

Provided herein is an electronic patch for applying to a wearable item. The electronic patch includes a sensor comprising a sensor pad and a sensor base that together define a stepped arrangement, an electrically conductive underlayer disposed under the sensor base, a circuit layer disposed under the underlayer and electrically coupled to the sensor via the underlayer, a first elastic layer overlying the sensor base and arranged adjacent the sensor pad, and a second elastic layer disposed under the circuit layer. Also provided is a wearable item that includes the aforementioned electronic patch as well as methods of making said wearable item and electronic patch.

The present application relates to the technical field of a floor composite material, and more particularly, the present application provides a composite material containing a PVC pre-coating film and a preparation method therefor. In the first aspect, the present application provides the method for preparing the composite material containing the PVC pre-coating film. The method comprises preparing the PVC pre-coating film by utilizing a PVC transparent film layer and a radiation-cured coating; performing high-temperature press fit on the PVC pre-coating film, a substrate material and a printed decorative layer; and then performing cooling and forming treatment to obtain the composite material containing the ultra-wear-resistant and easy-to-clean PVC pre-coating film.

The invention relates to a textile bonding composition comprising a salt of lignosulfonate, an aldehyde hardener thereof, and an elastomer latex. The lignosulfonate salt may be sodium, potassium, magnesium, ammonium, or calcium lignosulfonate. The invention also relates to the use of such a composition for imparting adhesion properties to a reinforcement textile, with regard to a rubber, a reinforcement textile, in particular yarn, cord or textile structure, at least partially coated and/or impregnated with this composition, and a part made of rubber or comprising a rubber, in which the rubber comprises at least one reinforcement textile, on the surface and/or integrated inside the rubber.

A method for manufacturing a core-material-containing garment, the method includes: a feeding step of feeding fabric (2) in a wound state onto a conveyor table (1) without relaxing or substantially relaxing the fabric (2); a core material application step of applying a reactive hot-melt adhesive to the fabric (2) on the conveyor table (1) to form a core material (12); an adhesive application step of applying a bonding hot-melt adhesive (13) configured to bond the fabric (2); and a drying step of drying the applied bonding hot-melt adhesive (13), and in the core material application step, the reactive hot-melt adhesive is mixed with nitrogen gas and foamed, and the reactive hot-melt adhesive is applied using an application device provided with a resin discharge unit that is movable in at least two axial directions of vertical and horizontal directions.

A surface covering tile has a plurality of edges extending between the face and the back surface. A pressure sensitive adhesive is disposed on the back surface and covers less than 40% of the back along each one of the plurality of edges where the back surface intersects the plurality of edges. For highly porous back surfaces, the pressure sensitive adhesive is selected and applied in a manner limiting penetration into the back surface. The amount of pressure sensitive adhesive required to affix the tile is reduced, and the tile can be optionally constructed in a manner that facilitates lateral movement of the tile during installation.

Embodiments provide methods of assembling apparel products. The methods include applying a composition to a portion of a major component of the apparel product or a portion of a minor component of the apparel product. The methods include coupling the portion of the minor component with the portion of the major component via the composition. The major component forms a base portion of the apparel product and is configured to be supported and worn at least partially over a portion of a wearer. The minor component forms a secondary portion configured to be coupled to the major component via an adhesive. The methods include converting the composition to form the adhesive and the apparel product. The adhesive includes a material having an imine bond or an iminium bond.

There are provided a holding strap, methods of making the same, and methods using such holding strap for tying down objects on a flatbed of a vehicle, retaining underground tanks, or lifting electrodes out of an electrolytic cell. The holding strap includes a chemically pre-treated strap component, an epoxy resin chemically bonded to the pre-treated strap component, and a hook component comprising a cavity that is configured and sized to receive at least a portion of the strap component, the epoxy resin being chemically bonded to internal surfaces of the cavity, so as to form the holding strap.
