The composite structure includes at least one electrical grid embedded within fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) layers. The embedded electrical grid includes a plurality of conductive fibers and a plurality of insulating fibers integrated into a polymer matrix of the FRP layers. The embedded electrical grid may be used for power distribution, structural strengthening and stiffness, and/or puncture detection.

The present invention provides a composite structure, a method for its manufacture, a sewn product containing the composite structure, and a method for manufacturing the sewn product. The composite structure comprises a foam layer, a textile layer, a cover layer and a lacquer layer in this order, wherein the foam layer has a density of at most 300 kg/m.sup.3 and contains a polyolefin, the cover layer is thermoplastic and comprises at least two compact sublayers of different composition, each sublayer containing at least one thermoplastic selected from polyolefin and polyvinyl chloride.

A patient securing overlay is provided that includes a sheet of fabric for supporting a patient's torso on a surgical table. The sheet of fabric has an upper surface configured to face the patient and a lower surface configured to face a surgical table mattress or underbody support. The sheet of fabric includes friction enhancing elements applied to at least a portion of the upper surface thereof. The sheet of fabric can include an extension at a foot end of the sheet of fabric that provides material to be tucked under a foot end of the surgical table mattress or underbody support for securing the foot end of the sheet of fabric to the surgical table mattress or underbody support. The extension can include one or more friction enhancing elements.

A belt for creping a web in a papermaking process. The belt includes a surface onto which the web is transferred during the papermaking process. A plurality of openings extend through the surface, with the openings being arranged in lines that are offset from lines in the machine direction (MD) and cross-machine direction (CD) of the belt. Paper products, such as absorbent sheets, made from the belt have hollow dome regions and connecting regions between the domes, with the domes being arranged in lines that are offset from lines in the MD and CD of the paper products.

In an aspect of the invention there is provided a blast protection panel, comprising a package of fibre-reinforced resin sheets, each sheet having a dominant unidirectional fibre orientation, said package of fibre-reinforced resin sheets formed in packed stacks, each stack comprising at least four fibre-reinforced resin sheets with dominant unidirectional fibres oriented, within said each stack, alternatingly at about right angles relative to each other; and said each stack packed against adjacent stacks, said adjacent stacks comprising sheets with dominant unidirectional fibres oriented at acute angles relative said each stack thereby forming a delamination interface.

Provided are a thermosetting epoxy resin composition and a prepreg, laminated board and printed circuit board using the thermosetting epoxy resin composition. The thermosetting epoxy resin composition comprises the following components in parts by weight: 2-10 parts of a phosphorus-containing anhydride, 5-40 parts of a phosphorus-free anhydride, 5-45 parts of an epoxy resin, 40-70 parts of a filler, and 0-15 parts of a phosphorus-containing flame retardant, with the total part by weight of all these components being 100 parts, wherein the phosphorus-containing anhydride has a structure as represented by formula I or II, and the epoxy resin is selected from one of or a combination of at least two of a bisphenol A epoxy resin, a bisphenol F epoxy resin and a biphenyl epoxy resin. The thermosetting epoxy resin composition also has good heat resistance, discoloration resistance and dimensional stability after curing while ensuring V-0 grade flame resistance, and can be used for the preparation of printed circuit board substrates in the field of LEDs.

A fabric formed by an interweaving of monofilaments (2) of synthetic material and which has two opposite metalized faces, in which at least one of said faces has at least one color (5) which determines the level of transparency.

Compared to the known fabrics for making transparent panels for the building sector, the fabric according to the invention offers the advantage of allowing control of the level of transparency to light, depending on the color applied to the metalized surface of the fabric.
