Described herein is flooring formed of an eco-friendly material, where the flooring has excellent heat resistance, durability, abrasion resistance and dimensional stability, and is formed of a non-PVC material and thus is recyclable via an extrusion processing at the time of disposal after use. Specifically, eco-friendly flooring is described in which a coating layer, an overlayer having ionomers, a printing layer, at least one middle layer, and at least one underlayer are laminated in order, where the overlayer of the flooring has ionomers, at least one of the middle layer and the underlayer has a thermoplastic polyolefin-based resin, a styrene-based resin, oil, and a filler, the thermoplastic polyolefin-based resin is contained in an amount of 50 to 150 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the styrene-based resin, and the styrene-based resin may contain 25 to 45% styrene.

This invention relates to a washable multi-component floor mat. The floor mat contains a textile component and a base component. The textile component and the base component are attached to one another by at least one surface attraction means and at least one edge attachment means. The textile component is designed to be soiled, washed, and re-used, thereby providing ideal end-use applications in areas such as building entryways. The present invention eliminates the need to wash the base component of the floor mat which results in environmental, cost and labor conservation.

A heat conductor includes a first layer containing a first resin component and first flake graphite fillers each having a basal plane; and a second layer containing a second resin component and second flake graphite fillers each having a basal plane. The heat conductor is a laminate including the first layer and the second layer, an average of first angles in the first layer is 35 degrees or smaller, each of the first angles is an acute angle between the basal plane of a corresponding one of the first flake graphite fillers and a first laminated surface of the laminate, an average of second angles in the second layer ranges from 55 degrees to 90 degrees, and each of the second angles is an acute angle between the basal plane of a corresponding one of the second flake graphite fillers and a second laminated surface of the laminate.

In an aspect a method of manufacturing an acoustic floor panel is described. The method may include: combining a binding agent with plastic flakes; passing the plastic flakes and the binding agent to a lamination machine; applying a force to the binding agent and the plastic flakes using the lamination machine to create a plastic sheet; cutting the plastic sheet; and adding an acoustic insulator to at least a first side of the plastic sheet.

Embodiments herein provide a thermally insulated garment having a shell, a lining that is secured to the shell at a plurality of points to form a plurality of compartments, a thermally insulating filling contained within each of the plurality of compartments, and an outer layer disposed adjacent to the shell, wherein the outer layer overlays the plurality of points and the plurality of compartments while being detached from the plurality of points and the plurality of compartments.

A carbon fiber toothed structure has a body. The body is circular and has a toothed segment and at least one carbon fiber cloth. The toothed segment is formed on an outer periphery of the body. The at least one carbon fiber cloth is deposited on a front side and a rear side of the body from a center to the outer periphery of the body to cover the toothed segment. The body is made by stacking multiple circular carbon fiber cloths of different diameters with each other. Some of the carbon fiber cloths deposited in the body have smaller diameters than those of the others of the carbon fiber cloths to enable the center of the body being thicker than the outer periphery of the body. The toothed segment has two guiding inclined planes respectively deposited on the front side and the rear side of the body.

The present invention relates to the use of an abrasion-resistant surface material for the coating of melamine resin laminates and to a laminate comprising the surface material used in accordance with the invention, and to a method for producing the laminate.

Production process of a composite product (1) comprising a core (2), a first layer (3) comprising a sheet impregnated with a solid polyurethane material, and a polymer-based film (7) applied to the first layer (3), wherein the process comprises: producing a semi-finished product comprising the core (2) and the sheet impregnated by a liquid mixture precursor of the solid polyurethane material; adhering the film (7) to a first half-mould (11) by applying a depression between the film (7) and the half-mould (11); pressing two half-moulds (11, 12) against each other with the semi-finished product interposed between two shaping surfaces (13), so that the film (7) comes into contact with the liquid mixture; with the semi-finished product in the mould, thermosetting the liquid mixture to transform it into the polyurethane solid material so that the film (7) firmly adheres to the first layer (3) and thus producing the composite product (1).
