A method for producing a wood sheet that is between 0.6 and 0.8 mm thick, includes covering both surfaces with a matte crystal clear polyester film that is between 70 and 80 micrometres thick joined by thermopressing to the wood sheet. The wood sheet is sanded between the method steps to a thickness ranging from 0.6 to 0.8 mm, a matte polyester film with a thickness ranging from 70 to 80 micrometres is applied, they are then thermopressed at a controlled temperature and speed, and the wood sheet covered with the plastic material film is cold-pressed. The present invention also relates to a translucent wood sheet which allows illumination lamps having unique configurations to be produced.

Proposed is a method of manufacturing a dental composite blank. The method of manufacturing the dental composite blank includes (a) pressurizing a laminate for a composite blank having multiple layers having different colors at a first pressure (P.sub.1), (b) pressurizing the laminate for a composite blank, pressurized at the first pressure, at a second pressure (P.sub.2), and (c) manufacturing a composite blank by curing the pressurized laminate for a composite blank, in which steps (a) and (b) are each independently performed once or multiple times, and the first pressure (P.sub.1) is less than or greater than the second pressure (P.sub.2), ultimately making it possible to manufacture a dental composite blank that is similar to a natural tooth and thus exhibits a superior aesthetic appearance and high interlayer bonding strength.

Disclosed is a stretchable, three-dimensional tubular structure formed due to processing-induced wrinkles to result in a platform for stretchable interactive electronics. The three-dimensional tubular structure is fabricated simply by releasing a pre-stretched two-dimensional film-substrate precursor, and the resulting wrinkled surface shows a strong directional dependence that drives the tube formation.

A polymeric film or laminate comprising the same is applied to at least a portion of a surface of an underlying article to provide, for example, desired surface characteristics. To assist in such application, a polymerizable composition is coated onto at least one of the surface of the polymeric film or the laminate and the surface of the article. The polymerizable composition is then polymerized with the polymeric film or laminate positioned thereover to form a sufficiently polymerized interlayer between the polymeric film or laminate and the underlying surface in resulting articles. Ease of removal and/or repair of polymeric film and laminates comprising the polymeric film that are so applied is facilitated.
