A structure in which complexity of the moving path of the nozzle during forming is suppressed even if the structure has regions with different elasticity and a manufacturing method for a structure that can suppress complexity of the moving path of the nozzle when forming the structure with regions with different elasticity. The structure includes a formed body with a linear structure formed of a linear resin. The formed body includes first and second elastic regions, and the linear resin forming the first elastic region is thinner than the linear resin forming the second elastic region.

A method of forming a component includes depositing a ceramic material within an open-cell void of a polymer body. The ceramic material deposited around the periphery of the open-cell void structure forms a thermally-conductive path through the polymer body. The ceramic material circumscribes an open volume extending the entire length of the thermally-conductive path that is filled with a sealant such that fluids are incommunicable from the first surface to the second surface via the thermally-conductive path. A method of forming a heat exchanger includes forming a plurality of plates, each plate formed as a thermally-conductive polymer body. The method of forming the heat exchanger further includes arranging the plurality of plates within a housing to form a plate and frame heat exchanger configured to place a first flowpath in a heat exchange relationship with a second flowpath.

A thermally insulating sheet formed by a down core structure which is comprised solely of down feather material mixed with binding material which is heat fused together to form a homogeneous sheet core. The method of fabricating the homogeneous thermally insulating sheet to form the down core structure is described. This novel method restrains the down clusters and binding material during the process of mixing, depositing, conveying and heat fusing to form a homogeneous down core sheet. The down core structure is subjected to two separate heat treatments which produces a down core sheet having at least some of its outer surfaces being of higher bond density than the inside of the core.

The invention relates to a process for producing a coating film, optionally in the form of sheets or slabs, especially for the coating of a carrier layer (3), optionally textile materials and/or peelable polyurethane foams and/or a textile carrier layer (3), wherein the coating film (100) has an optionally multilayer upper layer (1) and a bonding layer (2) bonded thereto and optionally having multiple layers (2′, 2″) for bonding to the carrier layer (3). It is envisaged in accordance with the invention that the bonding layer (2) creates an uncrosslinked, polyurethane layer having thermoplastic properties and having a thickness between 0.080 and 0.500 mm, preferably between 0.200 and 0.500, especially between 0.120 and 0.180 mm, and is bonded to the upper layer (1), and the upper layer (1) is a polyurethane layer which has a one-layer or preferably two-layer structure with an outer layer (1′) and inner layer (1″) and does not have thermoplastic properties, or a non-thermoplastic polyurethane layer which is amorphous or has a predominantly amorphous structure, said polyurethane layer being thinner than the bonding layer (2).

A three-dimensional substrate has a first surface, a second surface, land areas and comprises three-dimensional protrusions extending outward from the second surface of the three-dimensional substrate. The three-dimensional protrusions are surrounded by the land areas. The three-dimensional substrate is a laminate comprising at least two layers in a face to face relationship. The second layer comprise a tissue layer facing outward from the second surface of the three-dimensional substrate. The tissue layer comprises at least 80% pulp fibers by weight of the tissue layer.

Flexible graphite foil is produced from thermally expanded graphite. The foil comprises amorphous carbon and exhibits improved tightness and low leakage. The foil with is made of a composition comprising compressed TEG and amorphous carbon, wherein said composition is obtained from intercalated graphite with different graphite matrix oxidation degrees, and said composition comprises amorphous carbon in amounts corresponding to maximum I.sub.D/I.sub.G ratio values, depending on the oxidation degree, where I.sub.G and I.sub.D are scattered radiation intensity peaks in the frequency ranges of 1500-1630 cm.sup.−1 and 1305-1395 cm.sup.−1 for graphite and amorphous carbon, respectively, measured by Raman spectroscopy, depending on the oxidation degree of the above-mentioned intercalated graphite, whereby the maximum I.sub.D/I.sub.G ratio for each oxidation degree is greater than, or equal to, 0.05. Additionally, a sheet material based on such foil, a sealing and a method of the claimed foil production are disclosed.

The description relates to solvent free films and textiles that receive the solvent free films.

A thermoplastic film and a thermoplastic bag made therefrom are provided. The thermoplastic film includes a surface and a water-soluble polymer zone disposed on and in contact with the surface. The water-soluble polymer zone includes a freshening active, a water-soluble, film-forming polymer, and a surfactant.

An impact resistant panel used to replace spandrel glass panels or aluminum panels in structures that uses an impact resistant interlayer to fuse two porcelain layers together. The panel of the present invention is a three-layered panel formed by fusing a first rolled porcelain layer, an impact resistant interlayer and a second rolled porcelain layer. The impact resistant interlayer is melted into the pores of the porcelain layers to create an integral porcelain panel that can be used as structural elements or small, medium, and large dimensions while having impact resistant qualities.
