Equipment of making a substrate of plastic flooring contains: an extrusion unit, a thickness regulating unit, and a rolling apparatus. The extrusion unit includes an outlet, and the thickness regulating unit including an inlet, a channel, and a cooler. The rolling apparatus includes a first roller, a second roller, and a press roller. The press roller at least includes a contacting roller and a pressing roller, wherein the contacting roller is configured to roll a foaming sheet, a printing layer, and an abrasion resistant layer. Furthermore, a heating unit heats the foaming sheet, the printing layer, and the abrasion resistant layer so that the foaming sheet, the printing layer, and the abrasion resistant layer are connected by using the pressing roller.

Methods for preparing multi-layer optical laminates include placing an optical film that is free form an adhesive layer between first and second glass substrates that are free of an adhesive layer, placing this laminate under vacuum, and then heating the laminate under pressure to a temperature above the softening temperature of the optical film. The glass substrates are free of an adhesive layer but may include a silane surface treatment. The resulting multi-layer laminate is optically clear and does not show scattering of reflected light by the optical film.

Described herein are composite planks having a core layer and decorative layer. The composite planks contain layers are adhered to each other in absence of an adhesive material. Also described herein are methods for manufacturing composite planks. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present invention.

Provided is a method for producing a laminate, comprising laminating an aramid paper sheet and a polyimide film together by performing heating and pressurizing process under conditions of a temperature of 275 to 320 C. and a pressure of 50 to 400 kgf/cm. In the present invention, an aramid paper sheet-polyimide film laminate with excellent heat resistance, electrical properties, chemical resistance, mechanical properties, and the like can be manufactured by laminating the aramid paper sheet and the polyimide film in a simple method without impairing their properties.

A method, apparatus, and system for reticulating an adhesive on a workpiece. The workpiece may be perforated with a plurality of passages that extend through a first side to a second side. To reticulate an adhesive on the first side of a workpiece, a flow of heated fluid is provided through a nozzle. The nozzle provides the fluid at a first pressure to a first group of the perforations. Once the temperature at the first side of the workpiece reaches a specified range, the fluid pressure may be increased or otherwise set in order to clear the perforations by forcing the adhesive out of or away from each of the perforations. Temperature of the adhesive, pressure within the nozzle, and/or light passage through the perforations may be monitored for logical control or quality assurance.

The present invention relates to a lightweight composite metal sheet having excellent vibration damping characteristics and a method of manufacturing the same. Provided is a composite metal sheet including: a metal sheet; and a plastic layer disposed on one surface or both surfaces of the metal sheet and including a polyolefin and a thermoplastic polyester polyether elastomer.

There is provided a skin foam-in-place foamed article comprising a pad (15) and a bag-like outer material (20) covering the pad (15). The outer material (20) has a top layer (21) and a liner layer (22) made of a foamed resin. The liner layer (22) has a closed cell structure. A pad-side skin layer (27a) having a density higher than that of a bulk layer (26) is provided on the liner layer (22), on a side of the pad (15). A corona treatment is applied to the pad-side skin layer (27a).

Described herein are a bonded ceramic and a manufacturing method therefor. The bonded ceramic includes: a first ceramic substrate; and a second ceramic substrate, wherein the first ceramic substrate and the second ceramic substrate are bonded to each other without an adhesive layer therebetween and include pores, each of which is formed along a bonded surface therebetween and has a size of 0.01 to 50 m.

Thermal insulation structures include a polymer foam layer adhered to a multi-layer sheet having a non-cellular layer of a heat-resistant thermoplastic and a second non-cellular layer of a polylactide resin. The polylactide resin is a surprisingly good barrier to the diffusion of atmospheric gases into the foam layer and of blowing agents out of the foam layer. Accordingly, the diffusion of atmospheric gases and blowing agents is retarded substantially. This greatly reduces the loss of thermal insulation capacity of the structure due to the replacement of the blowing agent with atmospheric gases. The multi-layer sheet exhibits excellent thermal stability, even when the polylactide in the polylactide layer is highly amorphous.

Described herein are a bonded ceramic having a channel through which a fluid can flow, and a method for manufacturing the same. The bonded ceramic includes: a first ceramic base material; and a second ceramic base material, wherein: the first ceramic base material and the second ceramic base material are bonded by adhesive layer-free bonding; a pattern is formed on either or both of the bonding surface of the first ceramic base material where the first ceramic base material comes in contact with the second ceramic base material and the bonding surface of the second ceramic base material where the second ceramic base material comes in contact with the first ceramic base material; and the bonded ceramic includes pores having a size of 0.01 m to 50 m and formed along the bonding surface between the first ceramic base material and the second ceramic base material.
