A liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition comprises a polyolefin resin (A), a silylated polyolefin (B), and a compatibilizer (C) having a site compatible with the polyolefin resin (A) and a site compatible with the silylated polyolefin (B), wherein a polyolefin site of the silylated polyolefin (B) is incompatible with the polyolefin resin (A).

A bonded structure has a first bonded member with a first bonding surface, a second bonded member with a second bonding surface, and a bonding resin layer containing a polymer, disposed between the first bonding surface and the second bonding surface. The polymer in the bonding resin layer has polymer main chains oriented in an intersecting direction that intersects with the first bonding surface and the second bonding surface. The intersecting direction preferably extends along the thickness direction of the bonding resin layer. A heat exchanger has the bonded structure, and the first bonded member serves as a tubular member, and the second bonded member serves as a heat dissipation fin.

A hybrid-layered cell for a bulletproof structure includes a viscose absorber layer, a first elastic metal layer, a visco-elastic foundation layer and a second elastic metal layer, orderly arranged in a lamination manner. The viscose absorber layer contains a semi-liquid viscous material. The first elastic metal layer, laminated fixedly to the viscose absorber layer, has a first predetermined toughness. The visco-elastic foundation layer, laminated fixedly to the first elastic metal layer by opposing the viscose absorber layer, has predetermined elasticity and compressibility. The second elastic metal layer, laminated fixedly to the visco-elastic foundation layer by opposing the first elastic metal layer, has a second predetermined toughness. In addition, the first predetermined toughness is higher than the second predetermined toughness.

A packaging material for batteries, which is not susceptible to the formation of a pinhole or cracking during the forming, while having excellent formability, and is effectively suppressed in curling after the forming, which is formed of a laminate with at least a base layer, an adhesive layer, a metal layer and a thermally fusible resin layer in this order, and wherein: the tensile modulus of elasticity of the base layer in one direction and the tensile modulus of elasticity of the base layer in a perpendicular direction in the same plane are both within the range of from 400 N/15 mm to 1,000 N/15 mm (inclusive); and the absolute value of the difference between the tensile modulus of elasticity of the base layer in the one direction and the tensile modulus of elasticity of the base layer in the other is 150 N/15 mm or less.

A lap-fillet arc welding joint includes a weld bead, the weld bead being formed on an end portion of one sheet of overlapped two sheets and a surface of other sheet along the end portion. The other sheet includes a projecting portion projecting from the surface at a side of a weld toe of at least one of a start portion and a termination portion of the weld bead. The weld toe is located on a slope surface portion of the projecting portion at a side of the end portion of the one sheet.
