METHODS OF MAKING CUTTING ELEMENTS AND EARTH-BORING TOOLS AND RESULTING CUTTING ELEMENTS
Methods of forming cutting elements may involve providing a thermally stable polycrystalline table and a substrate portion located adjacent to the thermally stable polycrystalline table in a mold. A metal material may be provided over the substrate portion on a side of the substrate portion opposing the thermally stable polycrystalline table in the mold, the metal material exhibiting a melting temperature of less than 1,320 C. A mixture of particles may be distributed on the metal material in the mold. The mold and its contents may be exposed to a temperature less than 1,320 C. and pressure may be applied to the mixture of particles to cause the mixture of particles to coalesce and form a substrate and to at least partially melt the metal material to flow, infiltrate the substrate portion, and wet the thermally stable polycrystalline table and the substrate to form an attachment therebetween.
STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND USING STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES
One or more aspects of the present disclosure are directed to bladders that incorporate a multi-layer optical film that impart a structural color to the bladder. The present disclosure is also directed to articles including the bladders having a multi-layer optical film, and methods for making articles and bladders having a multi-layer optical film.

The present disclosure is also directed to articles of manufacture including the component having an optical element, and methods for making components and articles having an optical element that imparts structural color.
STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND USING STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES
One or more aspects of the present disclosure are directed to components having an optical element that imparts structural color to the component or article. The present disclosure is also directed to articles of manufacture including the component having an optical element, and methods for making components and articles having an optical element that imparts structural color.
STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND USING STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES
One or more aspects of the present disclosure provide components for an article of manufacture, having a film with an optical element that imparts a structural color to the component. The present disclosure also provide methods for making components with the films and optical element, and articles of manufacture including the component.
STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND USING STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES
One or more aspects of the present disclosure provide articles of manufacture and components of articles that incorporate an optical element that imparts structural color to the component or the article. The component comprises a cured or curable material, and can include or be made to have a textured surface.
STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND USING STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES
One or more aspects of the present disclosure provide optical element transfer structures that include an optical element releasably coupled with a transfer medium and methods of making and using the optical element transfer structures. The optical element transfer structures can be used to dispose an optical element onto an article, whereby the optical element imparts a structural color to the article.
STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND USING STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES
As described above, one or more aspects of the present disclosure provide articles having structural color, and methods of making articles having structural color. The articles incorporate a primer layer having a percent transmittance of about 40% or less in conjunction with an optical element. The optical element and primer layer impart a structural color to the article.
STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND USING STRUCTURALLY-COLORED ARTICLES
One or more aspects of the present disclosure provide articles of manufacture and components of articles that incorporate an optical element that imparts a structural color to the component or the article. The component comprises a thermoplastic polymeric material, and can include or be made to have a textured surface.
TOOL CARRIER WITH NOTCH, CUTTING INSERT AND METHOD FOR MAKING SAME
A cutting insert includes a tool carrier having a body with a pocket, and a cutting tip affixed to the pocket by brazing. The pocket is defined by a vertical back wall and a horizontal support surface. A notch is formed at the intersection between the vertical back wall and the horizontal support surface. The notch has a non-planar first portion proximate the vertical back wall and formed with a radius, R1, and a planar second portion extending between the first portion and the horizontal support surface and formed at an inclination angle with respect to a plane parallel to the horizontal support surface of the pocket. The design of the notch significantly reduces thermal stress and eliminates the formation of cracks in the pocket of the tool carrier when using an injection molding process to form the tool carrier.
