A method of making an electrically-conductive film is provided. The method includes providing a release layer, optionally having a topologically structured surface, and depositing at least one electrically-conductive layer on the release layer whereby the at least one electrically-conductive layer has an outer surface that substantially replicates the topologically structured surface. The electrically-conductive layer can be peeled away from the release layer to obtain the electrically-conductive film. Such electrically-conductive films can be useful in lightning strike applications.

The present disclosure relates to methods for assembling elastic laminates that may be used to make absorbent article components. Particular aspects of the present disclosure involve providing a first substrate and a second substrate, the first substrate and the second substrate, each having a width in a cross direction; providing an activated elastic material; elongating the activated elastic material; and ultrasonically bonding the first substrate together with the second substrate with the elongated activated elastic material positioned between the first substrate and the second substrate.

The present disclosure is directed to a tailgate protector for a vehicle, wherein the protector comprises a pressure absorbent material which has been attached to a body of the protector with an adhesive, wherein the material having pressure absorbent property is a fabric or rubber and provides a soft padded area for protecting a user from injury or discomfort, and the adhesive is a pressure sensitive adhesive comprising styrene, and the body is formed from a resin.

Vibration damping viscoelastic damping material laminates are described. The tapes generally include at least two viscoelastic damping material layers and at least one substrate. The tapes may optionally include one or more release liners. Also described are constrained layer systems formed by adhering the tape to a first substrate and/or second substrate undergoing vibration.

In a laminated steel plate in which steel plates are joined to both faces of a core layer, the core layer is formed of a meshed wire group formed using wires in a mesh form and a resin sheet, the wires forming the meshed wire group have a tensile strength of 601 MPa or higher, and an opening of the meshed wire group is equal to or less than ten times the thickness of the steel plates. By thus defining the tensile strength of the wires, light-weightness can be achieved compatibly with high rigidity and shock resistance, and by defining the opening of the meshed wire group, workability and shape stability after being processed can be improved.

A display device manufacturing apparatus includes a support portion including a core portion and a conductive portion disposed over the core portion. The core portion includes a first flat surface extending in a first direction; a second flat surface extending in the first direction and being opposite to the first flat surface; and a curved surface extending between the first flat surface and the second flat surface. The conductive portion includes a first flat conductive portion overlapping the first flat surface of the core portion in a second direction; a second flat conductive portion overlapping the second flat surface of the core portion in the second direction; and a curved conductive portion extending between the first flat conductive portion and the second flat conductive portion.
