A method and system for printing 3D structures using 2D monochromatic images (for example, greyscale images) is provided. The method can include instructing a printing device to print a 2D monochromatic image using print material in a reservoir known to contain a structural print material to create a three-dimensional structure. The method can further include instructing the printing device to print a 2D color image using color print material in a reservoir known to contain color print material, thereby forming an inner or an outer color layer of the three-dimensional structure.

Methods and apparatus are provided for eyeglass lens made using a solution casting process. The method may include providing a first soluble polymer solution. The method may include providing a first dye solution including at least one dye. The method may include adding the first dye solution to the first soluble polymer solution to form a first dyed solution. The method may include casting the first dyed solution to form a first film. The method may include providing a second soluble polymer solution. The method may include providing a second dye solution comprising at least one dye. The method may include adding the second dye solution to the second soluble polymer solution to form a second dyed solution. The method may include casting the second dyed solution onto the first film to form a two-layer film. The method may include laminating or casting the two-layer film to the eyeglass lens.

On-line synchronous registering co-extrusion SPC floor includes a base material layer, a decorative layer, and a wear-resistant layer. The decorative layer is arranged on the base material layer and provides patterns and designs. The wear-resistant layer is arranged on the decorative layer, is a transparent layer or a semi-transparent layer, and is provided with a concave-convex surface. The patterns or designs correspond to the concave-convex surface; the base material layer is composed of an elastic layer, a strength layer, and a stable layer, and shading is pressed on the bottom layer of the stable layer. Two co-extrusion lines are used for simultaneous extrusion to achieve an ABA three-layer effect of an SPC base material layer. A calender matches a synchronous registering system, and the patterns of the decorative layer are formed in a rolling manner.

A decoration member for a cosmetic container including: a color expression layer having a light reflecting layer and a light absorbing layer provided on the light reflecting layer; and a substrate provided on one surface of the color expression layer.

Golf ball comprising core; casing layer; cover layer; and plurality of outer coating layers. Casing layer comprises an ionomer blend of at least one ionomer and a color concentrate resin that is included in an amount of 3-10 wt.% of the ionomer blend. Cover layer is transparent and comprises thermoplastic/thermoset urethane composition. First outer coating layer is adj acent to cover layer and comprises clear water-borne or solvent-borne primer; and second outer coating layer is adjacent to first outer coating layer and comprises gold pearl primer, white sparkle primer, or combination thereof; third outer coating layer is adjacent to second outer coating layer and comprises a clear topcoat. Alternatively, second outer coating layer comprises matte topcoat, clear glossy topcoat, or combination thereof. In all embodiments, first outer coating layer and/or second outer coating layer may be colorless.

Aspects of the present invention relates to a method for producing a substrate sheet for a decorative floor or wall covering (10), a method for producing a decorative floor or wall covering and a decorative floor or wall covering (10). The method for producing a substrate sheet comprises providing a first thermoplastic composition comprising recycled PVC granules (S2), the first thermoplastic composition (S2) having a shade. In addition the method comprises admixing a darkener to the first thermoplastic composition so as to obtain a first thermoplastic composition having a specific shade (S6). A second thermoplastic composition (S4) is also provided. The method further comprises coextruding (S8) the first thermoplastic composition (S2) having a specific shade with the second composition (S4) so as to form a first and a second adjacent coextruded layers. The first coextruded layer is a support layer having the specific shade, the first coextruded layer comprising the first thermoplastic composition (S2). The second coextruded layer is a digitally printable layer, the second coextruded layer comprising the second thermoplastic composition (S4).

An assembly includes a bag and of a composite panel exhibiting a damaged region to be repaired by polymerization of a repair piece using the bag. The bag includes a sheet intended to be laid over the panel. When the panel and the sheet are laid one atop of the other, the sheet exhibits regions capable of absorbing heat emitted by radiation onto it in a proportion that is dependent on the polymerization temperature needed for that region of the panel that corresponds to it, the radiation being partially absorbed by suitable colouration of the sheet in the region concerned. Determining those regions of the panel in which radiation is less well absorbed than in others means that the heating can be adapted to suit the needs of polymerization in terms of repair and that even polymerization can thus be obtained over the entire damaged region, thereby consolidating the repair.

A method for producing a three-dimensional motor vehicle interior element through which light can shine and which has an observer-side surface is produced in two steps. In a first step a three-dimensional transparent substrate is produced from a cross-linked polymer. In a second step the substrate is provided on an observer-side surface of the substrate with a coloring through which light can shine, at least in a subregion.
