Sole structures including a plate including a first polyolefin resin, and an edge portion comprising a second resin are disclosed herein. The edge portion is more flexible or less rigid than the plate. Articles of footwear formed from the sole structures are also provided. Methods of making the polyolefin resin compositions, plates, edge portions, sole structures, and articles of footwear are also provided. In some aspects, the first polyolefin resin composition includes an effective amount of a polymeric resin modifier.

A floor may include a substrate having a top side and a bottom side. A top layer may be provided on the substrate. The top layer may consist of a printed thermoplastic film and a thermoplastic transparent or translucent layer provided on the printed thermoplastic film. The top layer may be directly adhered to the substrate by heat welding the printed thermoplastic film and the top side of the substrate, in the absence of a glue layer. The substrate may be a synthetic material board including a filler. The substrate at least at two opposite edges may include coupling means provided in the synthetic material board. The thermoplastic transparent or translucent layer may be provided with a structure.

A floor panel has a rectangular and oblong shape, and includes a substrate and a top layer provided on the substrate and forming a decorative side of the floor panel. The top layer is composed of a print provided on a carrier sheet and a transparent thermoplastic layer situated above the print. The substrate has a thickness from 2 to 10 millimeter and forms at least half of the thickness of the floor panel. The substrate is a polyurethane-based substrate and the transparent thermoplastic layer is polyurethane-based. The floor panel has a length of more than 1.1 meters and has a plurality of reinforcing layers situated outside the center line of the substrate. A reinforcing layer may be provided in combination with the substrate and the top layer.

Waterproof engineered floor and wall planks have a veneer layer bonded with a plastic composite core, and an underlayer, preferably an underlayer of cork.

To provide a glass with improved strength. Provided is a glass having at least a first face and a second face facing each other, and a third face connecting the first face to the second face. Each of the first face, the second face, and the third face contains metal atoms. The average concentration of the metal atoms in a first side region formed by the first face and the third face is lower than the average concentration of the metal atoms in each of the first face and the third face.

A drywall sheet with a gypsum core sheathed in front and rear paper layers, an edge of the sheet being tapered towards the rear, the taper being formed by a flap of a marginal area of the front paper and a thin layer of gypsum attached to an inner side of the front paper margin being folded into a space resulting from a slot cut in the sheet edge to a depth generally equal to the width of the flap, the flap being held in place by a continuous layer of a hot melt adhesive occupying a space of the slot not occupied by the flap and having an elasticity that imparts fastener penetration resistance to the associated edge from a front face of the sheet.
