This application relates to an enclosure for a portable electronic device. The enclosure includes a metal substrate and a dehydrated anodized layer overlaying the metal substrate. The dehydrated anodized layer includes pores having openings that extend from an external surface of the dehydrated anodized layer and towards the metal substrate, and a metal oxide material that plugs the openings of the pores, where a concentration of the metal oxide material is between about 3 wt % to about 10 wt %.

An apparatus including one or more panels including an outer face sheet comprising a plurality of first composite materials; an inner face sheet comprising a plurality of second composite materials; and a plurality of foam pieces disposed between the outer face sheet and the inner face sheet, wherein the foam pieces reduce warping of the panels.

In one embodiment, a method of forming an extruded board includes mixing a resin and a foaming agent, melting the mixed resin and foaming agent to form a uniformly colored extrudate, differentially expanding voids formed from the foaming agent within the uniformly colored extrudate by passing the uniformly colored extrudate through a breaker plate, forming a board with the differentially expanded voids and uniformly colored extrudate, and forming lightened portions on an outermost surface of the formed board.

The present disclosure relates to a plastic-containing support for a decorated wall panel or floor panel, comprising a supporting material including a thermoplastic matrix material, in which a solid material with a particle size less than or equal to 800 μm is embedded, wherein the support has a length, a width and a thickness, wherein the support has a density gradient along its thickness from a bottom surface to a top surface arranged on the opposite side to the bottom surface in such a manner, that the density of the supporting material averaged over a specified width or a specified length of at least 5 mm, preferably at least 20 mm, from the bottom surface to the top surface initially declines and then increases again.

A polyimide laminated film includes a porous polyimide layer that has a porosity of from 30% to 90% and pores having a spherical shape and a non-porous polyimide layer that has a porosity of 5% or less.

The present disclosure can provide an aerogel composite. The aerogel composite comprises at least one base layer having a top surface and a bottom surface, the base layer comprising a reinforced aerogel composition which comprises a reinforcement material and a monolithic aerogel framework, a first facing layer comprising a first facing material attached to the top surface of the base layer, and a second facing layer comprising a second facing material attached to the bottom surface of the base layer. At least a portion of the monolithic aerogel framework of the base layer extends into at least a portion of both the first facing layer and the second facing layer. The first facing material and the second facing material can each comprise or consist essentially of a non-fluoropolymeric material.

Articles, such as sanitary tissue products, including fibrous structures, and more particularly articles including fibrous structures having a plurality of fibrous elements wherein the article exhibits differential cellulose content throughout the thickness of the article and methods for making same are provided.

External thermal insulation composite systems described herein include a concrete or masonry wall and a multilayer thermal insulation board disposed on the concrete or masonry wall. The multilayer thermal insulation board includes at least one closed cell foam layer comprising polyurethane and polyisocyanurate having an open cell volume of less than 20% by volume according to ASTM D 6226 and at least one open cell foam layer comprising polyurethane and polyisocyanurate having an open cell volume of greater than 80% by volume according to ASTM D 6226.

A floor may include a substrate having a top side and a bottom side. A top layer may be provided on the substrate. The top layer may consist of a printed thermoplastic film and a thermoplastic transparent or translucent layer provided on the printed thermoplastic film. The top layer may be directly adhered to the substrate by heat welding the printed thermoplastic film and the top side of the substrate, in the absence of a glue layer. The substrate may be a synthetic material board including a filler. The substrate at least at two opposite edges may include coupling means provided in the synthetic material board. The thermoplastic transparent or translucent layer may be provided with a structure.
