Provided is a decorative sheet having an excellent decorative appearance due to surface unevenness, as well as excellent abrasion resistance and moldability. This decorative sheet includes at least a substrate layer and a surface protective layer located on the surface of the substrate layer, wherein: the surface protective layer has a cross section in the direction of thickness; the cross section has an unevenness formed, on such surface side, by a repeating pattern including recesses and projections which are mutually adjacent; and the ratio of the measured average surface protective layer thickness (μm) at the recesses, T.sub.v, and the measured average surface protective layer thickness (μm) at the projections, T.sub.p, (average T.sub.p/average T.sub.v) satisfies the relationship of 0.10≤T.sub.p average/T.sub.v average≤0.35.

A method of forming a trim panel is provided. The method including the steps of: placing a non-woven mat of material in a heating press; heating the material to a predetermined temperature; applying a decorative film to a first surface of the heated material to create a bilaminate; placing the bilaminate layer into a cavity of a tool such that the decorative film is facing the cavity; heating the cavity; and injecting a thermoplastic resin into the tool such that the thermoplastic resin is adhered to a second surface of the material, the second surface being opposite to the first surface. Also disclosed is the trip panel formed by the foregoing method.

The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a plastic frame for a two-wheeler having at least one hollow space in the interior by means of plastic injection molding having a series of method steps, wherein a fluid is injected to displace the plastic core from the component cavity after the injection of a preferably thermoplastic plastic melt into a closed injection molding tool.

The present invention relates to a method for producing a decorative part for vehicle interior trim, which is characterized by comprising the following steps: I) a softened decorative film is adhered to an inner surface of a decorative part mold and molded into a decorative film having the shape of a decorative part, wherein the decorative film has a thickness of at least 0.2 mm; II) scrap edges of the decorative film having the shape of the decorative part are removed; III) the decorative film having the shape of the decorative part from which the scrap edges have been removed is placed again in the decorative part mold and adhered to the inner surface of the decorative part mold; and IV) a body material of the decorative part is injected into the decorative part mold by a physical foaming injection molding process and molded into the decorative part together with the decorative film. In the present invention, a decorative part for vehicle interior trim which has light weight and excellent appearance can be obtained by a combination of a physical foaming injection molding process and an insert-mold process.

A method of fabricating a container is provided. The container includes multiple sidewalls extending in a substantially vertical direction and a bottom wall. The bottom wall includes a central portion, a first curved portion and a second curved portion. The first curved portion includes a first radius of curvature with a first center of curvature located on a first side of the bottom wall of the container, while the second curved portion terminates at the sidewalls and include a second radius of curvature with a second center of curvature located on a second side of the bottom wall of the container. The container further includes multiple reinforcing ribs located on the second side, each of the reinforcing ribs having a minimum height proximate the first curved portion and a maximum height proximate the second curved portion.

Introduced is a case for an electronic device, the case comprising: a base layer for configuring a basic frame; a first pattern layer formed on the base layer; a second pattern layer applied onto the first pattern layer; and a clear-painted layer which is applied to coat the first pattern layer or the second pattern layer. In addition, various other embodiments are possible.

Provided are a decorative film for molding including a cholesteric liquid crystal layer on a base material, in which the cholesteric liquid crystal layer is a layer formed by curing a liquid crystal composition which includes, with respect to a total solid content of the liquid crystal composition, 25% by mass or more of a cholesteric liquid crystal compound having one ethylenic unsaturated group or one cyclic ether group; a molded product using the decorative film for molding; and a molding method.
