Silicon elastomer articles are prepared by a 3-D printing process by depositing droplets of high viscosity curable silicone onto a substrate layer by layer from independently spatially controllable nozzles and irradiation with independently spatially controllable electromagnetic energy.

The present invention relates to a motor vehicle luminous device including at least one first portion that is transparent to at least one laser beam, the portion having at least one first polymer material, and at least one second portion that absorbs the laser beam and is transparent to at least some of the visible spectrum, including at least one second polymer material, the second portion being laser welded to the first portion.

A fastener for improved electrical contact with a composite structure and improved distribution of electric current to the composite structure. The fastener includes an elongated shaft having a first end with a head portion, a second end with a threaded portion, and a shaft body therebetween. At least one feed channel extends from an opening at the threaded portion, through the shaft body, and terminates proximal to the head portion. The shaft body radially expands upon pressure injection of a resin filler into the feed channel, when the fastener is installed in a corresponding fastener hole formed in the composite structure. Upon radially expanding, the outer surface of the shaft body makes contact with an inner hole surface of the corresponding fastener hole, resulting in the fastener providing electrical contact with the composite structure and providing distribution of electric current.

A method of making a flexible magnetized sheet is provided. The method may comprise the steps of (1) using cold extrusion to produce a highly viscous fluid magnetizable sheet, (2) passing the sheet through a magnetic field to create an uncured magnetized sheet, and (3) curing the sheet with electron beam curing. The fluid mixture may comprise magnetizable particles with a random charge orientation and an acrylic resin. The components of the mixture are cool when passed through an extrusion die. The extruded fluid sheet allows for the sheet to be magnetized and then, instead of curing by cooling, cured by the bombardment of electrons via an electron beam (EB) generator. The method can eliminate the heat of extrusion and can allow for more freedom of orientation because the sheet does not cure until it reaches the electron beam curing station.

An inductor includes a support having first and second coils formed on first and second surfaces thereof, respectively; a body embedding the support therein so that end portions of the first and second coils are exposed through first and second surfaces of the body opposing each other, and including a first magnetic part disposed in cores of the first and second coils and on upper and lower surfaces of the first and second coils, respectively, and second magnetic parts disposed on upper and lower surfaces of the first magnetic part, respectively; and first and second external electrodes formed on outer surfaces of the body to be electrically connected to the end portions of the first and second coils, respectively. The second magnetic part has a content of a hardening accelerator greater than that of the first magnetic part.

Provided are a thermally conductive ceramic-polymer composite in which thermoplastic polymers form a matrix, and planar fragments of thermally conductive ceramic or thermally conductive ceramic powder is uniformly dispersed on a grain boundary between thermoplastic polymer particles, thereby forming a thermal pathway, wherein the thermoplastic polymer particles are formed in a faceted shape, and the average size of the planar fragments of thermally conductive ceramic or thermally conductive ceramic powder is smaller than 1/10 of that of the thermoplastic polymer particles, and a method of preparing the same. Accordingly, since dispersion and interfacial affinity of a thermally conductive ceramic filler are maximized, excellent electrical insulation and excellent thermal conductivity can be exhibited even with a small content of the thermally conductive ceramic filler.

A composite resin molded body includes a base compound resin and a molten-kneaded mixture which contains an organic fibrous filler, and a dispersing agent. In the composite resin molded body, a content of the organic fibrous filler is at least 5 mass % and at most 70 mass %, and a proportion T of the organic fibrous filler carbonized in the composite resin molded body is equal to or less than 0.1.

A metallic polypropylene resin composition is provided herein. The metallic polypropylene resin composition provides appearance characteristics that are similar to those provided by painting, but without painting. The metallic polypropylene resin composition of the present invention has excellent physical properties such as scratch resistance, and thus may be applied to molding methods, such as a molded in color (MIC) method. The resin composition is useful as a material for automobile interior and exterior parts, as wells as electric and electronic products, which can be molded by the MIC method.

A method for manufacturing a light emitting device includes: preparing a baseplate having a plate surface on which a protrusion is disposed; forming a first resin frame having an opening on the plate surface, wherein the opening is located above the protrusion; forming a second resin in the opening; detaching the baseplate; bonding a light emitting element to a surface of the second resin surface that has been exposed as a result of detaching the baseplate; and forming a third resin that surrounds lateral faces of the light emitting element and that covers and contacts a portion of the first resin frame.
