An object is to provide a metal-resin bonded member that is easy to manufacture and has high bonding strength. The metal-resin bonded member includes a metal body having an iron oxide layer on the surface and a resin body bonded to the metal body via the iron oxide layer. The iron oxide layer has a thickness of 50 nm to 10 μm. The iron oxide layer comprises 60-40 at % Fe and 40-60 at % O at the outermost surface side. The iron oxide layer contains magnetite (Fe.sub.3O.sub.4). The iron oxide layer is formed by heating the surface of an iron-based substrate at 200-850° C. in an oxidation atmosphere. The resin body is composed of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS). The bonding of the metal body and the resin body via the iron oxide layer can be carried out by insert molding, thermal adhesion utilizing friction heating, etc.

A multi-layered fire-resistant roofing underlayment is disclosed. The roofing underlayment has a core of aluminum foil. On each side of the aluminum foil is a layer of nonwoven material. A lamination coating is between the aluminum foil layer and the layers of nonwoven material. At the bottom of the roofing underlayment is a backside coating layer. The roofing underlayment may be utilized in bats or rolls.

A foil-wrapped vacuum insulation panel having a core, and an air-tight envelope in the form of a wrapping foil surrounding the core made of powder or granulate, wherein between the core made of powder or granulate and the air-tight wrapping foil, there is provided at least one intermediate layer of cardboard and/or paperboard, which completely envelopes the core made of powder or granulate in a powder-tight manner and is formed cuboid box which has approximately the same shape as the finished vacuum insulation element, wherein the powder or granulate is filled into the cuboid box in such an amount that the body is completely filled up to its very top, and the shape of the vacuum insulation element is acquired only via the cuboid box and not by the powder or granulate, while the structural integrity of the core is not sufficient to retain the shape of the core on its own without the surrounding cardboard or paperboard box.
