The present invention is directed to multifunctional surfacing films each comprising: (a) a single layer of curable polymer composition having opposing first and second surfaces: (b) a peelable porous sheet disposed at or beneath the second surface; and (d) at least one porous sheet of functional material disposed within the single layer of curable polymer composition and positioned between the first surface and the peelable porous sheet, and methods of making and using such multifunctional surfacing films.

A floor panel for forming a floor covering comprises a substrate consisting of at least two substrate layers differing in density and, on at least one pair of opposite edges, is provided with coupling parts of the so-called push-lock type. Vertically active locking surfaces, where they cooperate in the coupled condition of two of such floor panels, define a tangent line which is horizontal or does not deviate more than 50 degrees from the horizontal. The locking surfaces are situated closer to the upper side of the first substrate layer than to the lower side of the first substrate layer.

A fluid-filled chamber is provided and includes a first barrier layer, a second barrier layer, a foam structure, and a tensile member. The second barrier layer is secured to the first barrier layer to define an interior void between the first barrier layer and the second barrier layer. The interior void contains a predetermined volume of fluid. The foam structure and the tensile member are disposed within the interior void, whereby the tensile member includes a plurality of fibers extending in a first direction between the first barrier layer and the second barrier layer.

Anti-icing stacks for protecting an aerodynamic surface are described. In some embodiments, an anti-icing stack includes an anti-icing layer, an elastomeric erosion protection layer, and an additional layer. The erosion protection layer is disposed between the anti-icing layer and the additional layer. The additional layer has a thickness greater than the thickness of the erosion protection layer and a tensile modulus of no more than the tensile modulus of the erosion protection layer. The additional layer may be a foam adhesive layer.

The present utility model provides an easy-to-clean protective film, which belongs to the technical field of protective films for vehicles and other vehicles, and can solve the problems that lasting scratches are easily caused to the existing vehicle coatings and surface stains are not easy to clean. The easy-to-clean protective film provided by the present utility model comprises a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) bottom film and an easy-to-clean layer consisting of silicon dioxide particles, wherein the water contact angle of the easy-to-clean layer is small and thus the adhesive force of dust and oil stains can be reduced. After the surface of the easy-to-clean layer is contaminated by dust and oil stains, the dust and oil stains can be easily cleaned with a simple cleaning. The easy-to-clean protective film provided by the present utility model is suitable for use as protective coatings of various substrates, especially for attachment to the body surfaces of vehicles such as automobiles.

Silicone optically clear adhesives compositions and films with pressure sensitive properties are described. The silicone optically clear adhesives compositions are thermal, UV curable, or UV-moisture dual curable. The silicone optically clear adhesives are suitable for sealing and bonding cover glasses, touch panels, diffusers, rigid compensators, heaters, and flexible films, polarizers and retarders in the optical display devices, and are particularly suitable in flexible and foldable displays.

A metal/resin composite structure includes: a metal member (M) having a fine uneven surface; and a polyamide-based resin member (A) bonded to the metal member (M), and the polyamide-based resin member (A) satisfies the following condition [A1] and condition [A2]: [A1] a glass transition temperature (Tg) observed by a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) is equal to or higher than 85° C. and equal to or lower than 140° C.; and [A2] a crystallization temperature (Tc) observed by a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) is equal to or higher than 250° C. and equal to or lower than 292° C.
