An object of the present invention is to provide a laminated member for decoration that can be molded into a complicated shape and has a superior hardcoating property. The present invention relates to a laminated member for decoration having a protective film, a coating layer and a resin substrate, wherein the surface roughness Rz(a) of the adhesive layer of the protective film on the side where the coating layer is located and the surface roughness Rz(b) of the coating layer of an unheated sample formed by peeling the protective layer, the surface roughness being taken on the side opposite from the resin substrate, define Rz(b)/Rz(a)×100 having a prescribed relationship; the surface roughness Rz(b) and the surface roughness Rz(bh) of the coating layer of a heated sample prepared by heating the unheated sample under a prescribed condition, the surface roughness being taken on the side opposite from the resin substrate, satisfy at least one of Formulas (2) and (3) below:

0%≤Rz(bh)/Rz(b)×100<30%  (2), and

0≤Rz(bh)≤Rz(b)<0.5 μm  (3);

and the unreacted (meth)acryloyl groups of the coating layer of the heated sample irradiated with a prescribed amount of active energy rays have disappeared 10 to 100% as compared with the coating layer of the unheated sample.

The present disclosure pertains to a trim part for a motor vehicle that comprises: a carrier; and a decorative material applied onto an upper surface of the carrier, wherein the decorative material comprises a printed thermoplastic film; and wherein the trim part is shaped by a deep-drawing process and a grain or impression is produced on the visible side of the film, which faces away from the carrier, by the deep-drawing process. A method and a device for manufacturing the trim part is also proposed.

A method for manufacturing a thermoplastic container may include locally heating a middle zone of a thermoplastic tube; gripping the tube on either side by using retaining members; pulling the tube apart, causing a middle zone to narrow; pushing the inner wall of the middle zone against each other to obtain a closure; and cutting through the closed-off middle zone to obtain two separate tubular parts. Further is provided a system for pulling apart a tube, the system may include a first retaining member which is provided for insertion into the first zone via the first end and a second retaining member provided for insertion into the second zone via the second end, each retaining member being adjustable between a first position in which the retaining member fits inside the tube and a second position in which, in use, the retaining member exerts a pressure on the inner wall of the tube.

A multidimensional heat-seal emblem having a digitally-printed image on one side in registration to a three-dimensional relief profile. The emblem has enhanced aesthetic impact, flex, stretch, durability and is suitable for soft goods. A method of production is also disclosed that provides 0.05 mm level relief detail with high profile features up to 6 mm in height.

A head seal device of a bag making apparatus includes a pair of seal units configured to face each other in a facing direction. Each of the seal units includes a heat seal member and a heater. The heat seal device includes an adjustment unit configured to move the first seal unit in a width direction of continuous sheet panels, and to move the second seal unit in the width direction of the sheet panels in accordance with movement of the first seal unit in the width direction.

This present invention pertains to a method and apparatus to create a decorative drinking straw that is thermally insulated. Its tube in tube construction protects the decorative content from leaching pigment and chemicals into a beverage. The tube in tube construction also prevents fading, peeling, scratching, and abrasive damage to the decorative content.

A splicable environmentally-friendly non-PVC advertising cloth made of a woven structure, wherein the advertising cloth comprising a mesh base layer (40); a first adhesion-promoting structural layer (10), which is a refractory and waterproof layer covering the front surface (43) and the rear surface (44) of the mesh base layer (40); a second adhesion-promoting structural layer (20) coated on the first surface (13) of the first adhesion-promoting structure layer (10); and a third adhesion-promoting structural layer (30) coated on the upper surface (24) of the second adhesion-promoting structure layer (20), therefore, waterproof and ink-absorbing structure arranged on a mesh base (40) layer, and the width of the advertising cloth (50) can be spliced unlimitedly as required by using high frequency splicing, making the environmentally friendly advertising cloth more applicable also improving the overall advertising effect and quality.
