A method for manufacturing a folded panel including the following steps: providing a longitudinal recess at the rear side, such that at the front side between remaining panel sections on both sides of the recess a flexible transition section remains, bending the panel sections relative to each other and applying an adhesive in the recess. Before the panel sections are bent relative to each other, a template is inserted into the recess.

A thermo-adhesive multilayer film based on thermoplastic polyurethane includes a barrier layer having a material with anti-dye migration properties selected from: ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetate, polyamides, cellulose derivatives, polyvinylidene chloride and combinations. The barrier layer is interposed between two layers, each having a mixture of a thermoplastic polyurethane with a compatibilizing agent selected from: co-polymers modified with maleic anhydride, co-polymers modified with epoxy groups, co-polymers containing hydroxyl groups and combinations thereof. A decorative multilayer film includes the thermo-adhesive multilayer film and a further decorative layer, which provides an aesthetic effect. A process of co-extruding the layers obtains the thermo-adhesive multilayer film and the subsequent bonding thereof with the decorative layer obtains the decorative multilayer film. The decorative multilayer film decorates substrates in the field of textiles, clothing, footwear and accessories. A finished decorated article includes a substrate on which the decorative multilayer film is applied.

A floor panel including at least one substrate and a top layer, where the substrate includes at least one first layer of a first thermoplastic material and a second layer of a second thermoplastic material. The second layer is adjacent to a first side of the first layer and the second layer provides the floor panel with its underside. The first layer is characterized by a first colour with saturation value S1 in the HSL colour space and the second layer is characterized by a second colour with saturation value S2 in the HSL colour space, where S1 is less than S2.

An object of the present invention is to provide a moisture barrier laminate including a moisture trapping layer that maximizes its moisture trapping performance and exhibits an excellent moisture barrier property. The moisture barrier laminate of the present invention includes a gas barrier film substrate A having a gas barrier layer a1 and a moisture trapping layer B formed on the film substrate A as a base. On a surface of the moisture trapping layer B opposite to the film substrate A, a protective resin layer C having a moisture permeability in a range of 4.0×10 to 5.0×10.sup.4 g/m.sup.2.Math.day at 40° C. and 90% RH is laminated.

A rigid polymeric modular flooring plank that contains chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) in the core or base layer. The rigid polymeric modular flooring plank has at least a polymeric core or base layer, a decorative layer, and a wear layer located above the decorative layer. The CPVC can offset the negative effects from any plasticizer present in the core layer, and thus permits the core layer to include plasticized material such as from recycled or reclaimed sources including rework and scrap materials. Methods of making the planks are further described. A method to control dimensional stability of a polymeric flooring plank is further described.
