The polyester film has an intrinsic viscosity of 0.50 to 0.64 dL/g and a density of 1.21 to 1.27 g/cm.sup.3. A content of the polyethylene terephthalate in the polyester film is 70 to 97% by mass. The flame retardant contains at least one phosphorus-based flame retardant selected from the group consisting of a phosphinate and a diphosphinate. A content of the phosphorus-based flame retardant in the polyester film is 3 to 8% by mass. The polyester film is a porous film having an average reflectance of 60 to 74% at a wavelength of 400 to 700 nm. The polyester film has a thickness of 15 to 45 μm.

The forming part is positioned above the mold and configured to jet a high-temperature gas onto the heated plate. The cooling part includes first and second cooling modules respectively positioned on the top and bottom portions of the mold and configured to cool the top and bottom portions of the heated plate. The mold is tilted at a predetermined angle relative to a horizontal plane.

A bonding device for charging a liquid material into a space between plate-shaped members for bonding them together in situ, in which the liquid material may be prevented from exuding from the space between the plate-shaped members. The bonding device includes pair retaining base members for retaining the pair plate-shaped members facing each other, and a retaining base member movement unit for causing movement of the retaining base members towards and away from each other. The bonding device also includes an illumination unit that illuminates curing light to a photo-curable liquid material charged between the pair plate-shaped members held by the pair retaining base members, and a sensor that detects the wetting spreading state of the liquid material charged between the pair plate-shaped members.

Disclosed herein is a display apparatus having high quality and high gloss. The display apparatus includes a display module which keeps a display panel on which an image is displayed in a curved surface state, a driving unit provided at a rear side of the display module, and a cover which accommodates the display module and the driving unit and forms an exterior of the display apparatus, wherein the cover is injection molded, and includes a first cover which is disposed in front of the display module and is provided to have the same curvature as that of the display panel, and a second cover which is disposed at the rear side of the display module, is coupled with the first cover, simultaneously accommodates the display module and the driving unit, and is formed to have a curvature which is different from that of the display panel.

Provided are a strengthened glass panel for protecting a surface of a display device and a method for manufacturing the same. Here, the strengthened glass panel includes a strengthened glass layer, a laminate layer uniformly formed on the bottom surface of the strengthened glass layer, and a separation layer configured to cover the laminate layer, wherein the laminate layer is formed by transferring a transfer film. Accordingly, the strengthened glass panel for protecting a surface of a display device can have improved characteristics of neatly attaching the laminate layer to the surface of the display device without lifting or occurrence of air bubbles and easily detaching the laminate layer when a uniform laminate layer is formed on strengthened glass by means of a transfer film.

A system for protecting a surface of a substrate includes a protective film, which is configured to be applied and secured to the surface, as well as a backing on an adherent surface of the protective film and an application tape over an exterior surface of the protective film. Protruding features, such as tabs, adjacent to different peripheral edges of the protective film may enable removal of the backing and the application tape from the protective film, and may include features that indicate the order in which each protruding feature is to be grasped to peel its corresponding element away from the protective film.

A method for manufacturing a touch panel, comprising the steps of: placing a touch sensor layer and a flexible printed circuit board connected to the touch sensor layer into a mold cavity constructed by a stationary mold board and a movable mold board of a cover lens mold; injecting a melted plastic material into the mold cavity; removing, after the plastic material is molded, the movable mold board, and withdrawing the touch sensor layer and the flexible printed circuit board that are covered by the molded plastic material; and removing the molded plastic material covering the flexible printed circuit board, the molded plastic material covering the touch sensor layer forming a cover lens. Such a manufacture method can solve the problem of difficulty to adhere a curved cover lens to the touch sensor layer in the existing skills.
