An article includes a substrate including a bonding surface area, a first adhesive disposed on the bonding surface area in a first discrete pattern, the first adhesive comprising a hot melt adhesive, and a second adhesive disposed on the bonding surface area in a second discrete pattern that is complementary to the first discrete pattern, wherein the first discrete pattern comprises about 1% to about 25% of the bonding surface area and the second discrete pattern comprises a balance of the bonding surface area.

One subject of the present invention is a roofing device (1) comprising an area support (2) made up of panels of wood particles on which a vapor barrier first layer (3), an insulating second layer (4) and a third layer (5) that is impermeable to liquid water are laid.

Said device (1) is one wherein the second layer (4) is a composite layer formed by the superposition of two distinct homogeneous elementary layers (6 and 6), namely a lower elementary layer (6) of wood fiber and an upper elementary layer (6) made up of a material that is at least partially bio-sourced, that has hygroscopic, antifungal and thermal-insulation properties and that has a low resistance to the diffusion of water vapor.

The present invention is directed to a building panel having a laminate structure comprising a cellulosic layer; and a topcoat layer that is substantially impervious to ambient moisture. The topcoat layer comprises a sealant sub-layer, an intumescent sub-layer comprising an intumescent composition, and the sealant sub-layer is positioned between the cellulosic layer and the intumescent sub-layer such that the intumescent sub-layer is separated from the first major surface of the cellulosic layer by the sealant sub-layer. The resulting building panel exhibits superior flame retardancy resulting in a Class A fire rating, according to ASTM E-84.

A vehicle interior component is disclosed. The component provides a user interface with a display/image when illuminated. The component comprises a composite structure with a cover material providing a light-transmissive effect and a surface providing a surface effect (grain/wood texture) visible when the display is off. The image is presented at the cover surface when the display is on. The cover may comprise a wood veneer with backing (paper, fiber material, etc.). The composite structure may comprise a mask layer and a lens, filter, colorant, etc. The user interface may include a sensor. The light source may comprise a display panel, LED/array, module, etc. The image is visible at the user interface when display functionality is in operation; when display functionality is not in operation the surface effect of the cover (e.g. wood texture) is visible with substantially no indication of display functionality.

A veneered element, including a substrate, a wood veneer layer having a first surface and a second surface, the first surface being opposite to the second surface, an adhesive layer adapted to adhere the first surface of the wood veneer layer to a surface of the substrate, wherein adhesive from the adhesive layer is present in a first portion of the wood veneer layer, extending from the first surface of the wood veneer layer into the wood veneer layer, and wherein the second surface of the wood veneer layer is substantially free from adhesive from the adhesive layer. Also, a method of producing such a veneered element).

The present disclosure relates to a method to produce a coating layer, including applying a coating composition on a surface of a carrier, curing the coating composition to a coating layer, and subsequently applying pressure to the coating layer. The disclosure further relates to a method to produce a building panel, and such a building panel, and to a method to produce a coated foil, and such a coated foil.

A system for protecting a person's facial skin from contaminants due to the application of makeup is disclosed. The system may include one or more patches that may be applied to the person's eyelids, cheeks, lips or other locations, upon which makeup may then be applied. In this way the makeup is applied to the top surface of the patches and not directly to the person's skin. The system may thereby prevent microbes (e.g., bacteria, viruses, etc.) from being transferred from the makeup and/or the makeup applicator to the person's skin.

Floor panel, which comprises a substrate and a top layer provided above, and preferably directly above, the substrate, wherein the top layer comprises a dcor layer, a thermoplastic wear layer, and a lacquer layer provided above, and preferably directly above, the wear layer, and wherein the floor panel has an upper surface showing a relief, wherein the relief has a maximum relief depth which is larger than 100 microns, and wherein the wear layer and the lacquer layer are embossed in order to form the relief.

A flooring assembly comprising a flooring unit comprising a stability core layer having a plurality of edge surfaces, two of which have an interlocking mechanism for attachment to the edge surfaces of the stability core of adjacent flooring units; a sound attenuating acoustic layer attached to the bottom surface of the stability core layer; and a finish layer attached to the top surface of said stability core layer.

A transaction card includes a monolithic ceramic card body having one or more pockets, and at least one of a magnetic stripe, a barcode, and a laser signature portion. The one or more pockets may be configured to receive at least one of the magnetic stripe, the barcode, a contact chip module, a contactless chip module, a dual interface chip module, a booster antenna, a hologram or commercial indicia. A transaction card may also include a substrate layer having a first side and a second side. A first ceramic layer is connected to the first side of the substrate layer.
