A vibration absorption device for acoustic insulation for a building structure comprises an absorbent cushion and a vibration isolation cushion. The building structure is selected from a ceiling structure, a floor structure and a partitioning structure separating two adjacent building compartments or a building compartment and the external environment. The absorbent cushion comprises sound absorbing material and the vibration isolation cushion comprising vibration isolation material. The vibration isolation cushion overlies and is laminated to the absorbent cushion. The vibration isolation cushion is rigid relative to the absorbent cushion. The absorbent cushion is supple relative to the vibration isolation cushion. The vibration absorption device is mountable to the building structure, to isolate vibrations and to provide acoustic insulation between the two separated and adjacent building compartments.

A cover board and roofing system including a cover board are disclosed. In one embodiment, the cover board includes a core having a first surface and a second surface. The core is configured to overlie a roof substrate. The cover board includes at least one facer attached to the first surface, the second surface, or both the first surface and second surface of the core. The cover board includes a reinforcing layer positioned between the core and the at least one facer. The reinforcing layer may comprise a scrim material. An impact resistance of the cover board may be greater than an impact resistance of an identical cover board without the scrim material.

The present disclosure provides a composition containing a polymeric blend. The polymeric blend contains (A) from 50 wt % to 90 wt % of a first ethylene-based polymer having a density from 0.895 g/cc to 0.905 g/cc; and a melt index from 0.1 g/10 min to 50 g/10 min; (B) from 8 wt % to 48 wt % of a second ethylene-based polymer having a density from 0.935 g/cc to 0.967 g/cc; and a melt index from 0.1 g/10 min to 180 g/10 min; and from 0.01 wt % to 2.0 wt % of a slip agent, based on the total weight of the polymeric blend. The polymeric blend has (i) an overall density from 0.900 g/cc to 0.925 g/cc; and (ii) a coefficient of friction (COF) after aging for 1 week at 60° C. from 0.001 to 0.400. The present disclosure also provides a multilayer film with a first layer containing the composition.

A separation sheet includes a polymeric carrier layer, a first adhesive layer, a second adhesive layer, and optionally a first and a second release liner. A method for producing a separation sheet, a method for waterproofing a substrate, a waterproofed substrate, and a use of the separation sheet for bonding of roof membranes to roof substrates.

A curative for epoxidized plant-based oils and epoxidized natural rubber is created from the reaction between a naturally occurring polyfunctional acid and an epoxidized plant-based oil is disclosed. The curative may be used to produce at least one of six different materials, wherein each type of material may be configured as a thermosetting elastomer that is crosslinked with β-hydroxyester linkages. The materials may be configured as a leather-like material, a foam material, a molded elastomer, a coating, an adhesive, and/or a rigid or semi-rigid material. Illustrative articles made from any combination of the six materials may be recycled using a mechano-chemical process to de-crosslink the thermosetting elastomer.

A shop towel device adheres to and covers the exterior of a garment to allow for wiping of the hands without soiling the garment. The device includes a base layer, the base layer being impermeable by fluids. An outer layer is coupled to and coextensive with the base layer. The outer layer is constructed of a fluid absorbent material. An inner layer is coupled to the base layer such that the base layer is between the outer layer and the inner layer. The inner layer is adherent for adhering to a garment such that the outer layer is exposed on the garment.

Disclosed herein is a kit including one or more decorative elements (pixel layers) and a substrate. The pixel layers can comprise a pre-shaped layer of rigid, semi-rigid, and/or flexible material that can mate with and/or attach to a substrate (for example, to decorate the substrate). Moreover, the substrate can have an adhesive backing to attach to at least one surface. Example uses of the disclosure include toy building blocks and hobby craft kits (for example, hobby craft kits including creative patterns with instructions, pixel layers, and substrates). The hobby craft kits can be used to make abstract designs for decorating notebook covers, phone covers, and tablet covers.
