The present invention discloses a co-extruded one-time-formed solar cell module backboard in a three-layer structure. The backboard is formed by co-extruding three layers: a middle layer located in the middle as well as an outer layer and an inner layer located at two sides of the middle layer, and has high water resisting capability, high reflective rate, good long-term aging resistance performances of hydrolysis resistance, UV resistance and heat resistance and good recoverability and environmental protection performance. Compared with the prior art, the backboard has better water resisting ability, higher reflectivity, better long-term aging resistance performances of hydrolysis resistance, UV resistance and heat resistance, better recoverability and environmental protection performance and lower cost. Compared with a backboard in a co-extruded structure in the prior art, the backboard of the present invention has better heat resistance, better dimensional stability and higher mechanical breaking strength.

A continuous, serpentine and intersecting pattern of filaments is provided on a surface of a house wrap membrane. Water drainage channels may be provided by depressions or viaducts formed at locations along filaments. The filaments may be formed using hot melt nozzles disposed on a member and translated transversely as the membrane is translated longitudinally beneath the nozzles.

A decorative sheet includes a substrate and a surface protective layer formed on the substrate. A decorative plate is formed by laminating the decorative sheet on a base. The surface protective layer includes a first surface protective layer formed on the substrate and a second surface protective layer formed on part of the first surface protective layer. The first surface protective layer contains a curable resin and has a surface kinetic friction coefficient of 0.11 or more and 0.30 or less. The second surface protective layer contains at least one of resin beads and an inorganic compound filler. The first surface protective layer is glossier than the second surface protective layer.

The present invention provides methods for uniform growth of nanostructures such as nanotubes (e.g., carbon nanotubes) on the surface of a substrate, wherein the long axes of the nanostructures may be substantially aligned. The nanostructures may be further processed for use in various applications, such as composite materials. For example, a set of aligned nanostructures may be formed and transferred, either in bulk or to another surface, to another material to enhance the properties of the material. In some cases, the nanostructures may enhance the mechanical properties of a material, for example, providing mechanical reinforcement at an interface between two materials or plies. In some cases, the nanostructures may enhance thermal and/or electronic properties of a material. The present invention also provides systems and methods for growth of nanostructures, including batch processes and continuous processes.

According to an aspect, a display device includes: a cover member curved when viewed in a first axis direction along a first axis; and a display panel disposed on one side of the cover member.
