Proposed are a plastic foam product added with EVA recycled pellets and a method of manufacturing the same, in which there is provided a process for manufacturing a shoe sole by recycling shoe molding waste generated due to defective judgment during a shoe manufacturing process and used shoe waste discarded after use of finished shoe products, thereby allowing shoe manufacturing to meet the trend of pursuing eco-friendly products in Korea and in markets such as Europe, and there is provided a process in which dispersion between materials is strengthened in the process of manufacturing a plastic foam product by adding EVA recycled pellets to an EVA foam compound and mixing them with each other, thereby enabling uniform foaming and thus realizing a good shape and improving the strength and quality of the product.

Solution casting a nanostructure. Preparing a template by ablating nanoholes in a substrate using single-femtosecond laser machining. Replicating the nanoholes by applying a solution of a polymer and a solvent into the template. After the solvent has substantially dissipated, removing the replica from the substrate.

A production method of a modeled object includes a fixing step of fixing a thermally expandable sheet onto a tray by entirely or partially fixing a periphery of the thermally expandable sheet placed on the tray by a fixing member; a thermally expanding step of thermally expanding partially the thermally expandable sheet, which is in a state of being fixed onto the tray by the fixing step, by being heated by irradiating the thermally expandable sheet with light by an irradiation unit, while moving the irradiation unit from a first position toward a second position unit; and cooling the thermally expandable sheet, which has been thermally expanded partially by the thermally expanding step, while maintaining the state in which the thermally expandable sheet is fixed onto the tray, while returning the irradiation unit from the second position to the first position.

There is provided an interlayer film for a laminated glass having improved appearance which has a MD and TD direction; and one end, and another end being opposite side of and thicker than the one end. The one end and other end are positioned on both sides of the interlayer film in the TD direction. When the distance between the one end and other end is X, the absolute value for the difference between the largest and smallest thermal shrinkage ratios from among three thermal shrinkage ratios is 15% or less. The three thermal shrinkage ratios are positioned from the one end towards the other end in MD direction with a first thermal shrinkage ratio at 150 C. at a first position at 0.05X, a second thermal shrinkage ratio at 150 C. at a second position at 0.5X, and a third thermal shrinkage ratio at 150 C. at a third position at 0.95X.

Three-dimensional printing processes are disclosed which utilize printable fluids comprising a carrier fluid, a polymeric binder, and nanoparticles. The three-dimensional printing processes are useful for making articles from a build material powder, e.g., a ceramic, metal, metal alloy, or intermetallic powder. The nanoparticles enable low temperature interparticle bonding of the build material powder particles, e.g., by forming bridging bonds between adjacent powder particles, and/or increasing the interparticle friction between the build material powder particles to enhance the structural strength of the as-built article during a thermal treatment over at least a part of the temperature range which has as its low end the temperature at which the structural strength due to the binder becomes insubstantial and as its high end the temperature at which the structural strength due to interparticle sintering of the build material powder becomes substantial, i.e., the article's debile temperature range. Green density improvements are achievable.

A hollow fiber membrane is formed by embedding a braid having a spiral open weave of monofilaments only, to avoid a whiskering problem. The open weave is characterized by contiguous, circumferential, rhomboid-shaped areas of polymer film separated by monofilament. When the braid is supported on a plasticized PVA cable having a scalloped periphery, the braid can be infiltrated with membrane polymer which, when coagulated, embeds the braid positioning it around the lumen. The embedded spiral weave, free of any circumferentially constricting monofilament, allows the membrane to be biaxially distensible. The membrane has give not only in the axial or longitudinal direction but also in the radial direction. Give in the radial direction permits soiled membranes to be backwashed under higher pressure than in a comparable braid which is not radially distensible.
