The present invention provides a circularly polarizing plate capable of reducing the amount of change in tint and a difference in reflectivity while achieving thinning of a display device and a display device having the same. The circularly polarizing plate of the present invention includes a polarizer, a transparent support, an optically anisotropic layer including a liquid crystal compound in this order, in which the optically anisotropic layer satisfies Expression (1) and the transparent support has a thickness of 50 μm or less and satisfied Expression (2), 100≦Re(550)≦180 nm . . . (1) and 1.00≦R≦1.20 . . . (2), in Expression (1), Re(550) represents an in-plane retardation of the optically anisotropic layer at a wavelength of 550 nm and in Expression (2), R represents a ratio between a maximum value and a minimum value of modulus of elasticity of the transparent support.

There is provided an interlayer film for laminated glass with which the flexural rigidity of laminated glass can be enhanced and the sound insulating properties of laminated glass can be enhanced. The interlayer film for laminated glass according to the present invention includes a thermoplastic resin, and has a smallest value of the shear storage elastic modulus in a temperature region of 10° C. or more and 40° C. or less measured at a frequency of 0.5 Hz of 3 MPa or more, a ratio of a shear storage elastic modulus at 20° C. measured at a frequency of 0.5 Hz to a shear storage elastic modulus at −30° C. measured at a frequency of 0.5 Hz of 0.01 or more and 0.8 or less, a glass transition temperature falling within the range of −20° C. or more and 0° C. or less, and a largest value of tan δ in a temperature region of −20° C. or more and 0° C. or less of 0.1 or more.

A thermal insulation device includes a first plate, a second plate formed to nest adjacent the first plate with a gap between the first and second plates, a porous material disposed between the plates, and a sealing layer disposed between the first and second plates such that the porous material is sealed from ambient at a pressure less than ambient. Multiple such sets of plates may be used to form an enclosure for a device that thermally insulates the device from ambient.

Adhering systems for magnetizable laminates to assist preventing delamination of magnetizable laminates exposed to direct sunlight; and, relating to preventing fouling of cutting blades during cutting of magnetizable laminates.

An interior trim part made by a method that includes the steps of bringing a fiber web onto a conveyor, needlepunching the fiber web to form a base in contact with the conveyor, and introducing a binder component on the base. The binder component introduced on the base is a thermoplastic polymer in solid form. The method includes a step for heating the base to cause the thermoplastic polymer making up the binder component to penetrate the base over a thickness smaller than the thickness of the base.

This disclosure relates to using polyester films on building boards to enable improved surface coatings. The polyester film is preferably applied to a glass mat via an adhesive to form a laminate. This laminate is then bonded to the exterior surface of a gypsum board. The polyester film is advantageous because it allows for exterior surface coatings to be applied. In one embodiment, an exterior acrylic coating is applied to the polyester film. Boards constructed in accordance with this disclosure allow for exterior finishings to be achieved without the need for excessive finishing materials or steps.

It comprises: a film made of a resin in which an aperture pattern is formed, the aperture pattern passing through the film, the aperture being with a shape and dimension corresponding to the thin-film pattern in a pre-established region for formation of the thin-film pattern on the substrate; and a metal member that has an aperture part opposite the aperture pattern with a shape and dimension larger than the aperture pattern, the metal member being provided as a thin sheet in intimate contact with one surface of the film on an outside part of the aperture pattern of the film. The film is mutually distanced and distributed, at a position where the film does not overlap the aperture pattern, into a plurality of divided parts on one surface of the metal member.

Protective clothing materials and related methods and garments are provided. In some embodiments, a protective clothing material may comprise a fibrous layer that serves as a barrier to certain fluids (e.g., bodily fluids, water) and microbes. The impermeability of the fibrous layer may be due, at least in part, to the structural uniformity and/or relatively small pore size of the fibrous layer. In some embodiments, the fibrous layer may have a relatively high air permeability that imparts beneficial properties (e.g., relatively high air flow, breathability) to the protective clothing material without adversely affecting its protection rating. In certain embodiments, the protective clothing material may also comprise one or more coarse nonwoven webs that impart beneficial properties (e.g., splash resistance) to the protective clothing material. The protective clothing materials, described herein, may be particularly useful for a wide variety of applications, including the formation of AAMI level 4 protective garments.
