The present invention concerns a chemical mechanical polishing pad having a polishing layer. The polishing layer contains an extruded sheet. The extruded sheet is prepared by extruding a compounded photopolymerizable composition followed by exposure to UV light.

A composite film having a high dielectric permittivity engineered particles dispersed in a high breakdown strength polymer material to achieve high energy density.

A walkway pad is provided for placement on a flat roof to protect the roof from foot traffic, tools, and/or equipment. The walkway pad includes a body and at least one expansion joint that absorbs thermal movement of the body. A method of manufacturing the walkway pad is also provided.

A method is provided for producing an adhesive material (1) for a medical application such as a dressing. The method includes at least one step for coating a first surface (2b) of any substrate (4), called receiving substrate, using a layer of previously coated silicone on an anti-adherent liner (3). The silicone layer is an adhesive gel (2). The method further includes, prior to the coating step, a corona treatment step for the surface of the adhesive silicone gel that is intended to coat the receiving substrate (4).

The invention relates to a method and facility for manufacturing a tape of reinforcement filaments impregnated by a polymer matrix, said tape having a constant width across the entire length thereof, wherein the filaments extend in a direction parallel to the length of the tape, from a strand of filaments coming from a feeding reel, the method including steps and units that make it possible to manage the unwinding tension of the strand, to guide the strand on the axis of the machine, to manage the width of the strand, to deposit the polymer on the strand by electrostatic powdering, with a polymer weight ratio of around 20% to around 75% to melt the polymer, to calibrate the width and thickness of the tape and to collect the tape on the storage reel.

Described herein are resilient floor coverings produced by using digitally printed UV-cured inks and exhibiting high adhesion properties between an ink layer and a wear layer. Also described herein are methods for manufacturing same. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present invention.

Disclosed are apparatuses and methods for forming films having uniform thicknesses across the entire width of the film. The films are also disclosed. The apparatus for forming the film includes a first nip roller and a second nip roller, each of the first nip roller and the second nip roller being configured to compress the powder as it passes between the first nip roller and the second nip roller and thereby form the film, whereby in the absence of a force counteracting the pressure of the passage of the powder between the first nip roller and the second nip roller the first nip roller is deflected to a greater degree than the second nip roller. Furthermore, the first nip roller and the second nip roller are each associated with one or more eccentric bearings that rotate to apply force vectors to the first nip roller and the second nip roller.
