The present disclosure provides a composite structure and associated method for preparing a composite substrate comprising an inorganic coating that is adhered to an organic-based substrate via an adhesion promoting agent comprising a molecule having a urea moiety at one end of the molecule and an alkoxysilane moiety at the other end of the molecule. The use of adhesion promoting agent having at least one of an amine or imine moiety and an alkoxysilane moiety promotes tight adhesion of the inorganic coating to the substrate.

A coated transparency including an electrically conductive multilayer stack is disclosed. The electrically conductive multilayer stack includes a first metal oxide layer including aluminum doped zinc (AZO), a metal layer including gold, and a second metal oxide layer including AZO. The electrically conductive multilayer stack has a low sheet resistance to provide radar attenuation and anti-static or static-dissipative properties, and has greater flexibility and resistance to corrosion than conventional multilayer stacks used to coat aircraft canopies and other substrates.

A two-component moisture curable composition, a membrane system including the same, and a structure including the same are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a structure includes a substrate, and a membrane system disposed on the substrate, wherein the membrane system comprises a single layer prepared from a two-component moisture curable composition comprising a reactive organic polymer containing a reactive silyl function group and an epoxy resin, wherein the single layer functions as a primer and a base coat, the single layer disposed on the substrate, and a top coat disposed on the single layer on a surface of the single layer opposite that of the substrate. The moisture curable composition can be applied directly to an adhesion-resistant substrate without the higher number of application steps and/or other chemical treatment required with conventional compositions.

A wood adhesive, a method for adhering wood materials using the same, and a composite wood structure using the same are disclosed. The wood adhesive comprises a first agent and a second agent, wherein the first agent comprises sodium carboxymethyl cellulose having a molecular weight from about 15,000 to about 500,000 and a degree of substitution from about 0.4 to about 2, and the second agent comprises polymeric quaternary amine.

Flexible films of thermosetting adhesive materials which are non-tacky to the touch are storage stable at room temperature and can be cured at elevated temperature with a short cure time and can be cured to produce a tough flexible adhesive layer including bonding to oily surfaces, the materials are particularly useful in bonding together dissimilar substrates.

The present invention relates to fiber glass strands, yarns, fabrics, composites, prepregs, laminates, fiber-metal laminates, and other products incorporating glass fibers formed from glass compositions. The glass fibers, in some embodiments, are incorporated into composites that can be used in reinforcement applications. Glass fibers formed from some embodiments of the glass compositions can have certain desirable properties that can include, for example, desirable electrical properties (e.g. low D.sub.k) or desirable mechanical properties (e.g., specific strength).

Disclosed are an adhesive composition for polarizing plates, a polarizing plate using the same, a method for preparing the same, and an optical member including the same. The adhesive composition includes (A) a (meth)acrylic radical compound, (B) a cationic epoxy compound, (C) a phenoxy resin, and (D) a photoinitiator.

The invention provides a process for producing a hybrid component comprising metal and plastic. The process comprises the steps of a) pretreating the metal surface by applying at least one conversion layer, b) applying at least one layer of an adhesion promoter composition and c) bonding the metal to the plastic. The adhesion promoter composition comprises at least one copolyamide-based hotmelt adhesive.
