The invention relates to creating health benefits from an energy efficient thermal insulation device of a reinforced impermeable aluminum sheet combined with a protective cover divided into a number of air filled square and rectangular shaped modules that provide health and comfort benefits by improving indoor and outdoor air quality and indoor air circulation by reducing energy flux through the building fabric where the insulating device is fixed to a wall or free standing behind a heat emitter and thereby reducing the heating fuel consumption and therefore storage requirements of heating fuel and thereby extending fuel reach for the fuel supplier and reducing carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere.

A house sealing method is herein provided. The method involves using a tacky on both sides detail membrane having a reinforced inner core to seal various areas of a building envelope.

A reusable wallpaper and method for producing reusable wallpaper for removable attachment to a wall or ceiling surface with wallpaper paste. The wallpaper includes only a flat base layer without a paste coating applied by the manufacturer. The flat base layer is in the form of a textile, in particular synthetic fibers.

Embodiments provide a multilayer film in which: a first acrylic resin layer (α1), an aromatic polycarbonate resin layer (β), and a second acrylic resin layer (α2) are directly laminated in the stated order; the aromatic polycarbonate resin constituting the aromatic polycarbonate resin layer (β) is a product of ester exchange between a polycarbonic acid ester of an aromatic dihydroxy compound and a low-crystalline or amorphous aromatic polyester; and the relationships (Tβ−Tα1)≤30 and (Tβ−Tα2)≤30 (where Tα1 is the glass transition temperature of the acrylic resin constituting the first acrylic resin layer (α1), Tα2 is the glass transition temperature of the acrylic resin constituting the second acrylic resin layer (α2), Tβ is the glass transition temperature of the aromatic polycarbonate resin constituting the aromatic polycarbonate resin layer (β), and all of the temperatures are measured in degrees Celsius) are satisfied. The glass transition temperature of the aromatic polycarbonate resin should be 100-140° C.

The present invention relates to a multilayer material comprising a layer of stone (1) laminated to a layer of reinforcing element (2) and its manufacturing process.

A multi-layered structure (1) for the production of a floor or wall covering. The structure comprises: a first assembly (E) successively comprising at least: a transparent wear layer (E1) made of polyvinyl chloride; a decorative layer (E2) bonded to the wear layer (E1); a backing layer (E3), bonded to the decorative layer (E2), produced from plasticized and loaded polyvinyl chloride; a foam layer (2), bonded to the backing layer (E3), imparting sound-insulating properties to the structure, and having a lower side. The first assembly (E) comprises a tensile modulus for 1% elongation greater than 5 MPa, and a flexural modulus at 3.5% between 10 MPa and 20 MPa and the foam layer (2) is a cross-linked polyolefin foam layer, having a thickness between 0.5 mm and 2 mm, and a density between 60 kg/m.sup.3 and 120 kg/m.sup.3.

The invention relates to a bamboo unit (1) comprising at least one bamboo element (2), wherein the bamboo element (2) can be produced from several bamboo parts (3), wherein the bamboo parts (3) can be arranged next to each other in at least one plane, and wherein the individual bamboo parts (3) are connected to each other in a force- and/or form-locking manner.

A heat insulation sheet and a sheet material using the heat insulation sheet. The heat insulation sheet is provided with a fixing layer that is arranged between a base material and a carbon sheet. The fixing layer is made of a pressure-sensitive adhesive. The base material has flexibility. The carbon sheet is made by rolling expanded graphite and has a thickness from twenty-five micrometers to one hundred micrometers. In the sheet material, activated carbon is arranged opposite to the fixing layer side of the heat insulation sheet, and a surface material is arranged on a surface of the activated carbon. The fixing layer can be constituted in such a manner that a hot-melt adhesive is arranged in a reticulate manner.

An ultra violet stable polyester membrane with a polyacrylic coating on one side and a coated pressure sensitive adhesive coating on its other side capable of allowing water vapor to pass through it. The pressure sensitive adhesive is formed of a copolymer comprising a backbone of n-butyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, and vinyl acetate which is mixed with at least one surfactant and emulsified to produce air bubbles which form pores when the copolymer is set with about 80% to about 90% of the pore sizes ranging from about 200 microns to about 300 microns and being uniformly distributed to form a flow path through the pressure sensitive adhesive.

Fiber-reinforced coated mats and fiber-reinforced coated mat-faced panels are provided herein, along with methods for making the same. Fiber-reinforced coated mats include a mat with a fiber-reinforced coating on one surface. Fiber-reinforced coated mat-faced panels include a fiber-coated mat and a panel material in contact with a surface of the mat opposite the fiber-reinforced coating. Methods include applying a fiber-reinforced coating to a surface of a mat to form a coated mat and drying the coated mat to cure the fiber-reinforced coating. Some methods also include combining the mat with a panel material to form a mat-faced panel.
