A surface-reinforced bitumen roofing membrane includes at least two layers, namely 1) a bitumen compound layer, and 2) a fiber mat, and can optionally include a) an optional bleed blocker layer that is located between the bitumen compound layer and the fiber mat, b) an optional liquid applied coating that partially or fully encapsulates the fiber mat, c) an optional release liner that is releasably positioned on the bottom surface of the bitumen roofing membrane, and/or d) an optional release film that is releasably positioned on the fiber mat surface.

A thermal barrier article comprising a core layer containing a plurality of fibers or a flame-retardant foam, and a supplementary layer disposed on or integrated within the core layer, where the thermal barrier article is operatively adapted to survive or withstand at least one cycle of the Torch and Grit Test.

The invention relates to a cover structure the SMC main body of which is simultaneously pressed and bonded with two additional layers in a bonding press.

A steering wheel is provided that is able to prevent damage to a layer adjacent to an outer surface layer due to an external force applied when a joined portion between outer surface layer material parts is finished. In a steering wheel comprising a rim portion having a core metal and a covering portion 5 covering the core metal, and a mat material 6 provided between an outer surface material 9 and the covering portion 5 of the rim portion and having a conductive portion 7 on a part facing the outer surface material 9, and the outer surface material 9 has a joined portion 91 formed in a direction intersecting a circumferential direction of the rim portion, the covering portion 5 is provided with a groove 51 in which the joined portion 91 and a part of the mat material 6 are housed, and between the outer surface material 9 and the conductive portion 7, a sliding member 8 is interposed at least in a vicinity of the joined portion 91.

A stitched multi-axial reinforcement and a method of producing a stitched multi-axial reinforcement. The stitched multi-axial reinforcement may be used in all such applications that reinforcements are generally needed and especially in such applications where either Vacuum Infusion technology or Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) technology for distributing the resin in the mold is used. The stitched multi-axial reinforcement is especially applicable in the manufacture of wind turbine blades, boats, sporting equipment, storage tanks, bus, trailer, train and truck panels, etc., and generally in all such structures that are subjected to stress in more than one direction

The breathable sheet of the present invention is comprised of a 4-methyl-1-pentene-based polymer or a resin composition containing the 4-methyl-1-pentene-based polymer as a main component. In addition, the breathable sheet of the present invention is preferably selected from the group consisting of a net, a mesh, a non-woven fabric, a woven fabric, and a perforated sheet.

An instrument having a vacuum chamber, wherein a wall of the vacuum chamber includes a layer of carbon fiber reinforced thermoset having a thickness in a range of 1-10 mm, a first and a second layer of ceramic material having a thickness in a range of 40-60 μm, and a layer of aluminum having a thickness in a range of 0.5-10 mm. The first layer of ceramic material is positioned between the layer of carbon fiber reinforced thermoset and the layer of aluminum. The layer of aluminum is positioned between the first layer of ceramic material and the second layer of ceramic material. The second layer of ceramic material is positioned most to a side of an interior surface of the wall of the vacuum chamber.

A building wall includes an exterior surface and an interior surface. The exterior surface faces the exterior of the building and the interior surface faces an interior room of the building. The wall has a total wall thermal resistance between the exterior surface and the interior surface. The wall includes a structural member positioned between the exterior surface and the interior surface, and the structural member is configured to bear at least a portion of a vertical load of the wall. An insulated composite wall panel is positioned between the structural member and the interior surface. The insulated composite wall panel includes a skin layer including glass fibers and a cellulose fiber insulation board attached with a resin to a first surface of the skin layer. The thermal resistance of the cellulose fiber insulation board comprises the greatest component of the total wall thermal resistance.

The method for producing a skin material is a method for producing a skin material having a concave part formed on the front surface side, comprising heat-pressing a raw material between an embossing die and an elastic sheet to form the concave part and, at the same time, forming a convex part on a bottom surface of the concave part.

The invention relates to a flooring panel suitable for constructing a floor covering, which panel comprises a core layer and a decorative top layer and a layer situated between the core layer and the decorative top layer which enables improves sound performance.
