The present disclosure provides a resin composition containing a bio-polyethylene resin (A), an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (B), and an alkali metal salt (C), wherein the content of the alkali metal salt (C) is 10 ppm to 1500 ppm, in terms of metal, with respect to the weight of the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (B). With this resin composition, gel formation and a reduction in transparency during molding are suppressed, and a molded product having an excellent appearance can thus be obtained.

A seamless three-dimensional cover (1) for an electronic device (2), the seamless three-dimensional cover (1) comprising of at least one glass base layer (3) and at least one glass rim layer (4). At least one layer of color inducing film (5) is arranged between at least one of the base layer (3) and the rim layer (4), or between two adjacent rim layers (4). The base layer (3), the rim layer(s) (4), and the layer of color inducing film (5) are fused together to form the seamless three-dimensional cover (1). This facilitates a strong and durable three-dimensional cover, which cover is translucent as well as at least partially colored. Furthermore, the cover does not affect the function of components such as millimeter-wave antennas.

Ultraviolet-C (UV-C) radiation shielding films including a substrate made of a fluoropolymer, a multilayer optical film disposed on a major surface of the substrate, and a heat-sealable encapsulant layer disposed on a major surface of the multilayer optical film opposite the substrate. The multilayer optical film is made of at least a multiplicity of alternating first and second optical layers collectively reflecting at an incident light angle of at least one of 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, or 75°, at least 30 percent of incident ultraviolet light over at least a 30-nanometer wavelength reflection bandwidth in a wavelength range from at least 100 nanometers to 280 nanometers. The ultraviolet light shielding film may be applied to a major surface of a photovoltaic device, such as a component of a satellite or an unmanned aerial vehicle. Methods of making the UV-C radiation-protective films also are disclosed.

The invention provides a sealant film that is less likely to adsorb components formed of various types of organic compounds, has excellent heat sealing characteristics at 140° C., while having low heat sealing strength at 100° C. and being less likely for heat sealing layers to adhere to each other even when the film is used as a packaging bag and the content thereof is warmed in boiling water. The sealant film has at least one heat sealing layer consisting of a polyester component, wherein a heat sealing strength of the heat sealing layer being heat sealed to another heat sealing layer at 100° C. and 0.2 MPa for 2 seconds is 0-5 N/15 mm and at 140° C. and 0.2 MPa for 2 seconds is 8-30 N/15 mm, and a film density including all layers is 1.20 or more and less than 1.39.

Described herein is a process for preparing a flexible packaging material. The process may comprise: providing a printed first flexible substrate comprising an ink composition on a surface of a first flexible substrate, the ink composition comprising a first thermoplastic resin; depositing a further composition comprising a cross-linker, a white pigment and a second thermoplastic resin onto the printed ink composition such that the thermoplastic resin of the ink composition is cross-linked; and laminating the first flexible substrate with a second flexible substrate such that the ink composition, the further composition and the cross-linker are disposed between the first and second flexible substrates.

A wax-extender emulsion including a plurality of wax-extender complex particles suspended in water is described. A wax-extender complex includes a wax component, an organic extender component and a surfactant that stabilizes the wax component and the organic extender component collectively to form the wax-extender complex. The wax-extender emulsion comprises from 2 wt % to 30 wt % organic extender. During manufacturing, the organic extender and wax component are emulsified and homogenized together to produce the wax-extender emulsion. The wax-extender emulsion can be co-applied as a mixture with adhesive resin during wood-based composite manufacturing.

A security device includes an array of lenses and a plurality of first and second segments disposed under the array of lenses. At a first viewing angle, the array of lenses presents a first image for viewing without presenting the second image for viewing, and at a second viewing angle different from the first viewing angle, the array of lenses presents for viewing the second image without presenting the first image for viewing. At least one first or second segment can include one or more microstructures or one or more nanostructures configured to produce one or more colors for the first or second image.

The present invention provides a sheet-type beauty pack having a convenient use and expected to provide moisture and nutrients to the skin of the face and the like, has a sufficient far infrared ray effect due to a natural material containing minerals, removes impurities, and has a wrinkle alleviation effect due to skin lifting, by applying a beauty pack, which uses a cosmetic material of a natural material containing minerals, in a paste state to a sheet such as nonwoven fabric. The sheet-type beauty pack comprises: a first release paper; a nonwoven fabric of which one surface is laminated with the first release paper and of which the other surface is coated with a cosmetic material in the paste state; and a second release paper laminated on the other surface, coated with the cosmetic material, of the nonwoven fabric.
