Multi-layer composite materials comprising a plastic or metal foil, corresponding method of production and use thereof Multilayered composite materials comprising as components: (A) a plastics or metal foil, (B) optionally at least one bonding layer and (C) a polyurethane layer with capillaries passing through the entire thickness of the polyurethane layer.

A cool roofing system includes highly reflective calcined kaolin particles having a solar reflectance of 80% to 92%. When applied to a roofing substrate, the highly reflective kaolin particles produce a roofing system having a solar reflectance greater than or equal to 70%.

A high-temperature open-cell porous body, the body comprises crystalline inorganic particles and 0.5 to 3-weight percent glass. The crystalline inorganic particles are bonded together by the glass to form a matrix with interconnected pores having a porosity of greater than 20-percent. The crystalline inorganic particles may further include interconnected micro pores, the latter combination providing a matrix with both macro porosity and micro porosity.

Pressure sensitive adhesive compositions containing 92 to 99.9 parts of a block copolymer adhesive composition and 0.1 to less than 8 parts of an acrylic adhesive composition are described. Tapes including such adhesives, and methods of making such tapes are also described.

A building panel with a surface layer including a wood veneer, a wood fibre based core and a sub-layer between the surface layer and the core. The sub-layer includes wood fibres and a binder. The surface layer has surface portions including material from the sub-layer. The surface portions including material from the sub-layer extend into the wood veneer.

A method of producing a veneered element, including providing a substrate, applying a sub-layer on a surface of the substrate, applying a veneer layer on the sub-layer, and applying pressure to the veneer layer and/or the substrate, such that at least a portion of the sub-layer permeates through the veneer layer. Also, such a veneered element.

The foam sheet of the present invention has a stress relaxation ratio of 23% or more and a 25% compressive strength of 1,000 kPa or less. The pressure-sensitive adhesive tape of the present invention includes the foam sheet of the present invention and a pressure-sensitive adhesive material provided on at least one surface of its multilayered foam sheet. The present invention can provide a foam sheet that can increase a permanent strain and a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape including the foam sheet.
