Disclosed herein is a display apparatus capable of implementing to be slim and lightweight. The display apparatus includes a display panel for displaying an image; a bottom chassis disposed in a rear of the display panel; and wherein the bottom chassis is formed with a panel including a plastic core and a planar material stacked on a side of the plastic core.

The present invention relates to a barrier for preventing the propagation of a thermal event within a multi-cell battery module (so-called propagation barrier), comprising a heat-absorbing protective layer based on a hydrogel and a reinforcing filling material. Furthermore, the invention relates to a battery module which comprises the barrier, and to the use of the barrier to compensate for volume fluctuations within a battery module. In addition, a method for producing the propagation barrier is also specified.

A hollow board includes a core layer, a first skin layer, and a second skin layer. The core layer is made of plastic and includes a first surface, a second surface, and partition walls that define cells. The first skin layer is stacked on the first surface of the core layer. The second skin layer is stacked on the second surface of the core layer. The board includes side edge including a compressed portion in which the core layer is compressed in a thickness direction, and an end face formed by bending at least one of the first skin layer and the second skin layer toward the other skin layer at the side edge. The compressed portion is provided between the first skin layer and the second skin layer at the end face. The inclination angle of the end face is greater than or equal to 70 degrees.

A polyisocyanurate foam insulation product is produced from an isocyanate component, a polyol-containing component, and a blowing agent. The polyol-containing component includes a first polyol and a second polyol, a fire retardant, and one or more surfactants, wherein the first polyol and the second polyol have different hydroxyl numbers, or have different functionalities, or differ in both hydroxyl number and functionality. In some formulations, the polylol-containing component may include a fire retardant, a metallo-organinc compound, or combinations thereof. The cell size of the foam may be less than 120 microns. The polyol-containing component may include a mixture of polyols having different functionalities.

The present invention aims to provide an anisotropic heating sheet which is capable of emitting generated heat in a specific direction to efficiently utilize its energy, and which has excellent handleability. The present invention also aims to provide an interlayer film for a laminated glass and a laminated glass each including the anisotropic heating sheet. Provided is an anisotropic heating sheet including: a laminate including an aerogel layer containing an aerogel and a heating layer, the aerogel layer having a tensile strain at break of 0.1% or higher as determined by a tensile test in conformity with JIS C 2151.

A load bearing building panel having a first sheet intended to provide an inner building surface, a second sheet intended to provide an outer building surface, and an insulating foam core sandwiched between them. The sheet that provides the inner building surface is corrugated to define co-planar portions separated by a plurality of channels which are dimensioned so as to be able to accommodate standard size electrical boxes and/or plumbing pipes. Advantageously, the other sheet is also corrugated to define a plurality of channels so that a plurality of panels can be stacked in a partially nesting relationship.

The present invention generally relates to nonwoven structures and composites comprising such nonwoven structures, particularly structures incorporating foam, and methods of making and use thereof. One aspect of the invention is generally directed to composites comprising a nonwoven structure immobilized to foam, e.g., using adhesive, needling, or other techniques. The nonwoven structure may comprise any of a variety of fibers. In certain embodiments, the composite may be substantially thermally insulating and/or acoustic insulating. Other aspects of the present invention are generally directed to systems and methods for making such composites, methods of use of such composites, kits comprising such composites, and the like.

A method for fabricating emulated wood with pores and fibers, comprising: immersing a plurality of synthetic fibers configured parallel in a plane into a resin so that the resin is coated on the surfaces of the plurality of synthetic fibers and in the gaps between the plurality of synthetic fibers; placing the plurality of synthetic fibers between two sheets, wherein the two sheets are planar sheets made from a uniform composition comprising a thermoplastic elastomer, a foaming agent, and a crosslinking agent; carrying out a heat-press process on the two sheets so that the foaming agent undergoes microcellular foaming and forms dense closed pores in the two sheets, and so that the composition on inner surfaces of the two sheets expands towards the plurality of synthetic fibers and penetrates through the gaps between the plurality of synthetic fibers; and cooling the two sheets to yield an emulated wood board.

A biodegradable, thermally insulated mailer and cooler, and method of making them, are disclosed. The thermally insulated packaging material are made from laminated starch foam and bio-plastic film. The lamination can be performed by heat bonding, without the use of an adhesive bonding agent, to produce biodegradable packaging materials that can pass ASTM and other certifications for home compostability and marine environment safety.
