Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composite articles that have a macro textured surface. The composite articles include at least two different PTFE membranes in a layered or stacked configuration. The composite article has a macro textured surface characterized by a plurality of strands raised from the surface of the PTFE membrane. The strands may be formed of either interconnected nodes of PTFE or of at least one nodal mass of PTFE and have a length equal to or greater than about 1.5 mm. The macro textured surface provides a topography to the first PTFE membrane. The composite articles have a bubble point from about 3.0 psi to about 200 psi, a thickness from about 0.01 to about 3.0 mm, and a bulk density from about 0.01 g/cm.sup.3 to about 1.0 g/cm.sup.3.

A glass article including a frame having a frame support surface, a glass sheet having a first major surface and a second major surface in which the second major surface is opposite to the first major surface, and an adhesive bead disposed between the frame support surface and the second major surface. The adhesive bead defines a bead path. The adhesive bead has a cross-section perpendicular to the bead path, and the cross-section includes a width and a height. The height is a maximum dimension perpendicular to the second major surface of the glass sheet, and the width is a maximum dimension parallel to the second major surface of the glass sheet. An aspect ratio of the height to the width is at least 0.6, and the width is 2 mm or less.

A system and process for bonding involves a pocket made into one article is used to secure that article to another using a flowable, curable material (e.g., resin) which during saturation enters through a passageway and at least partially fills the void. When the article is cured, the article is bonded to another article to which resin has also been applied since the void (now containing cured material) is larger than the passageway.

A pressure sensitive adhesive composition can cure via hydrosilylation to form a pressure sensitive adhesive. The pressure sensitive adhesive composition may be coated on a substrate and cured to form a protective film. The protective film is useful in flexible OLED device fabrication processes, e.g., for protection of passivation layers.

A double-sided optically clear adhesive is provided. The double-sided optically clear adhesive includes a first adhesive layer and a second adhesive layer. The first adhesive layer includes a first resin and a first thermal-crosslinking agent. The first resin includes a hydroxyl group. The first thermal-crosslinking agent includes a first group. The second adhesive layer includes a second resin and a second thermal-crosslinking agent. The second resin includes a hydroxyl group. The second thermal-crosslinking agent includes a second group. The ratio of the equivalent number of the first group of the first thermal-crosslinking agent to the equivalent number of the hydroxyl group of the first resin is represented by r1. The ratio of the equivalent number of the second group of the second thermal-crosslinking agent to the equivalent number of the hydroxyl group of the second resin is represented by r2, wherein r1<r2≤0.8 and r2−r1≤0.025.

Disclosed is a display apparatus including a display panel and a cushion plate disposed under the display panel. The cushion plate may include a porous member and a reinforcing plate. A step in a side area of the display apparatus may be removed, thereby improving impact absorption ability and rigidity.
