The present invention relates to a method for preventing the metallization of a support of at least one plastic part subjected to a metallization process, comprising the successive stages of oxidation of the surface of said part, of activation of the oxidized surface and of chemical and/or electrochemical deposition of metal on the activated surface, characterized in that it comprises a stage in which said support, before said oxidation stage, is brought into contact with an inhibiting solution comprising at least one specific metallization inhibitor. The invention also relates to a process for the selective metallization of a plastic part combined with a support, comprising bringing said part into contact with said inhibiting solution.

Disclosed herein are anatomical simulators produced using three dimensional (3D) printing to produce interior components of the simulator. The method of producing void structures in an anatomical phantom, includes 3D printing one or more structures of one or more desired sub-anatomical features using a dissolvable material; supporting and enclosing the one or more structures in an interior of a mold of the anatomical phantom; filling a remaining internal volume in the interior of the mold between an outer surface of the one or more structures and an inner surface of the mold with a liquid precursor of a matrix material selected to mimic anatomical tissue and processing said liquid precursor to form a tissue mimic matrix material; and dissolving the one or more structures with a fluid selected to dissolve said dissolvable material to produce one or more internal cavities within the tissue mimic matrix material.

An object of the present invention is to provide a process for producing a surface-modified molded article, whereby surface layer strength of a molded article can be enhanced, and a molded article containing an organic polymer compound with low adhesive property, such as a fluororesin, can be bonded to an adherend without the use of an adhesive, and whereby a treatment step or an apparatus in an atmospheric-pressure plasma treatment are not complicated, and to provide a process for producing a composite of the surface-modified molded article and an adherend. The present invention is a process for producing a surface-modified molded article wherein a surface of the molded article containing an organic polymer compound is subjected to an atmospheric pressure plasma treatment to introduce a peroxide radical with adjusting the surface temperature of the molded article to (melting point of the organic polymer compound −120° C. or higher.

Disclosed is a method of producing a pattern for a decorative panel. The method includes applying a clear gel coat on a mold to form a clear layer. The clear layer is cured and then digitally printed with one or more inks so as to produce a pattern on the clear layer. Also disclosed is a decorative panel including a clear layer, an opaque layer and a pattern digitally printed on the clear layer, between the clear and opaque layers, such that the pattern is visible through the clear layer.

A method of producing a brush for the cleaning of electronic components. In this method, a plastic core is prepared and submerged into a solvent to melt the outer surface of the core. While the outer surface of the plastic core is still partially melted, it is rolled through a trough of powdered polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) such that granules of PVA melt into and subsequently become embedded at the outer surface. As the solvent evaporates, the outer surface of the core re-hardens and the granules of PVA become firmly entrapped at the outer surface. The PVA covered shaft is placed in a mold, which is then filled with a PVA solution. As the solution cures, it forms a strong bond with the PVA granules that are embedded at the surface of the plastic core. Thereafter, the mold components are disassembled, leaving behind the finished cored brush.

Disclosed are a terminal apparatus, a system comprising the terminal apparatus, and a method for controlling the terminal apparatus. The terminal apparatus comprises: an input unit for receiving 3D scanning information of an object; a display unit for displaying the 3D scanning information; and a control unit for detecting a defective part from the 3S scanning information, wherein if a defective part is detected, the control unit activates a repair mode, generates a repair part corresponding to the defective part on the basis of the 3D scanning information, and wherein the repair part is divided into a coupling area and a non-coupling area, and if a predetermined condition is satisfied, a separable protrusion can be formed in the non-coupling area.

The invention relates to a method (100) for producing an image structure (12) according to an image specification (20), in particular for a letterpress process and/or intaglio printing process, characterized in that the following steps are carried out: a) providing a base (10) for receiving the image structure (12), b) producing an image structure (12) on the base (10) so that an image layer (11) is formed on the base (10) by means of the image structure (12).

Methods for fabricating Class-A components (CAC) include providing a molding precursor which includes a first and second skin layer each including a fiber reinforcing material embedded in a polymer matrix, a third layer between the first and second skin layers and including a third polymer matrix and a filler material interspersed therein. The fiber reinforcing materials include a plurality of substantially aligned carbon fibers having a plurality of low strength regions staggered with respect to the second axis. The method includes disposing a molding precursor within a die, compression molding the molding precursor in the die, wherein the die includes a punch configured to contact the second skin layer, opening the die to create a gap between the punch and an outer surface of the second skin layer, and injecting a Class-A finish coat precursor into the gap to create a class-A surface layer and form the CAC.
