A transversally extensible elastic laminate including two continuous tab chains having respective continuous base portions sandwiched between two corresponding edge portions of two overlapped webs and a plurality of tabs extending from the respective base portions outside the two overlapped webs, wherein each tab has a respective micro-hook pad fixed to a planar surface, and wherein the planar surface of each tab has a portion which completely surrounds the respective micro-hook pad.

A laminate includes a first sheet containing first fibers, a second sheet laminated on the first sheet and containing second fibers, and an adhesive disposed between the first sheet and the second sheet. At least a part of the adhesive is disposed in an end portion along the edge side of the laminate so as to form a linear first region, and the first sheet is adhered to the second sheet via the first region. Alternatively, a mass per unit area of the adhesive present in an end portion along an edge side of the laminate is larger than a mass per unit area of the adhesive present in a portion near a central part of the laminate rather than the end portion.

Provided is a process for producing an electrolyte-impregnated laminar graphene structure for use as a supercapacitor electrode. The process comprises (a) preparing a graphene dispersion having multiple isolated graphene sheets dispersed in an electrolyte; and (b) subjecting the graphene dispersion to a forced assembly procedure, forcing the multiple graphene sheets to assemble into an electrolyte-impregnated laminar graphene structure, wherein the multiple graphene sheets are alternately spaced by thin electrolyte layers, less than 5 nm in thickness, and the graphene sheets are substantially aligned along a desired direction, and wherein the laminar structure has a physical density from 0.5 to 1.7 g/cm.sup.3 and a specific surface area from 50 to 3,300 m.sup.2/g, when measured in a dried state of the laminar structure with the electrolyte removed. This process leads to a supercapacitor having a large electrode thickness, high active mass loading, high tap density, and exceptional energy density.

A method of roll forming a plurality of composite components. The method includes the steps: (a) laying a plurality of blanks onto a carrier strip, each blank including a stack of sheets of uncured composite material contacting a respective contact part of the carrier strip; (b) after step (a), forming the blanks and their respective contact parts of the carrier strip with a desired cross-sectional profile by passing the carrier strip carrying the blanks through a series of sets of rollers, each set of rollers performing an incremental part of a bending operation until the desired cross-sectional profile is obtained; (c) after step (b), separating the blanks along with their respective carrier strips from the rest of the carrier strip; and (d) before or after step (c), curing the blanks.

Fiber reinforced composite structures having curved stepped surfaces are fabricated by laying up plies of fiber reinforced material over a tool having a stepped tool feature. The plies are rotated about a fixed axis as they are laid up to substantially form a fixed axis rosette pattern. The plies are angularly oriented such that at least certain of the plies have fiber orientations other than 0, +45, −45 and 90 degrees. Potential bridging of the fibers over the stepped tool features is reduced or eliminated by cutting slits in the plies in the area of the stepped features, so that the plies can be fully compacted.
