The present invention is a liquid-repellent film or sheet that exhibits an excellent liquid repellency, and a packaging material using the same. The liquid-repellent film or sheet comprises: a substrate layer (2); an adhesive layer (3) that comprises a thermoplastic resin, and is formed on at least one plane of the substrate layer (2); and a liquid-repellent layer (4) that comprises a resin (6) having a liquid-repellent moiety, and hydrophilic particles (5), and is formed on the surface of the adhesive layer (3).

Provided is a melamine decorative board having a milky-white core layer and less warpage. When the melamine decorative board is bonded onto a base plate such as a plywood, a particle board, and a steel board, a color tone of the base plate does not appear through to a decorative layer. Stacked and thermal-pressure-formed are: a resin-impregnated patterned paper as the decorative layer; multiple sheets of a resin-impregnated core paper, as the core layer, produced by impregnating a whitish fibrous base material with a resin liquid including: a condensate of melamine and formaldehyde, and a divalent polyalkylene glycol or a derivative thereof, or a tri- or more valent polyalkylene glycol polyvalent ether, and drying the whitish fibrous base material; and a resin-impregnated backside paper, as a backside layer, produced by impregnating a fibrous base material with a condensate of melamine and formaldehyde and drying the fibrous base material.

The present invention is a liquid-repellent film that exhibits an excellent liquid repellency, and a packaging material of which a surface is formed of the same. The liquid-repellent film comprises: an undercoat part (90) formed unevenly on the substrate surface by microparticles (70) and a thermoplastic resin (80); and a topcoat part (60) having: (i) a minute uneven structured part that includes hydrophilic microparticles (20) having a smaller particle size than the microparticles (70); (ii) a liquid-repellent moiety (40) that bonds to the surface of the minute uneven structured part; and (iii) a binder resin (50) that is present between the surface of the undercoat part (90) and the minute uneven structured part, and is distributed to cover the bonding part of the minute uneven structured part and the liquid-repellent moiety (20).

Disclosed herein films and packages formed therefrom for packaging oxygen-sensitive products. The films include a product contact layer comprising COC and catalyst. Introduction of a gas flush including hydrogen gas to a package made from said films helps provide for the catalytic combination of molecular hydrogen and molecular oxygen to remove oxygen from a headspace of the package.

Provided are an external heating-type aerosol generating device and a cigarette used therein. Because heat energy is easily transferred to the cigarette, a sufficient amount of smoke may be provided to a user in initial puffs so that the user may have a satisfactory smoking experience.

A glass laminate includes a non-glass substrate with a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. A glass sheet is laminated to the first surface of the non-glass substrate. A barrier film is laminated to the second surface of the non-glass substrate and includes a first surface adjacent to the non-glass substrate, a second surface opposite the first surface. A thickness of the barrier film can be at most about 0.5 mm. The second surface of the barrier film can define an outer surface of the glass laminate. The barrier film can be a multi-layer barrier film with a metal layer and a polymer layer. An absolute value of a flatness of the glass laminate determined according to European Standard EN 438 after exposure to 23° C. and 90% relative humidity for 7 days can be at most about 3 mm/m.

The present invention relates to a method for the production of a cladding for elongated material (2), in particular a sheath for cable sets. In this method, an adhesive tape (3, 4) consisting of a carrier (4) and a first adhesive coating (3) which substantially fully covers the front side of the carrier (4) is combined with an adhesive-free carrier tape (5) such as to form a laminate (3, 4, 5). This is carried out such that the adhesive tape (3, 4) is applied to the carrier tape (5) with its first adhesive coating (3) in such a way that a first projection (U.sub.1) is defined along at least one of the two longitudinal edges of said adhesive tape. According to the invention, the carrier (4) of the adhesive tape (3, 4) is additionally provided with a further second adhesive coating (7) substantially in parts of its rear side.

The present invention is directed to a laminate having a first exterior surface and a second exterior surface, the laminate includes a first layer comprising a heat sealable material, a second layer comprising a cyclic olefin copolymer, a third layer comprising a metallic foil or metallized polymer material, and a fourth layer comprising a thermoplastic film or paper. The laminate provides high oxygen and/or moisture barrier properties and can withstand the corrosive effects of products containing solvents, halogens or strong acids and bases.
