An optical film includes a polarization film including a polymer resin and a dichroic dye, and a phase delay layer disposed on the polarization film and including a liquid crystal.

A method for manufacturing laminated glass articles includes the steps of inkjet printing an image with one or more inkjet inks on a first glass sheet; jetting and at least partially curing a curable sealing agent on three edges of the first glass sheet on the side for the inkjet printed image; aligning a second glass sheet with the first glass sheet on the side of the first glass sheet carrying the at least partially cured sealing agent and the inkjet printed image; applying a liquid curable adhesive resin composition into an interspace between the first and second glass sheets; and curing the liquid curable adhesive resin composition until a solid adhesive layer is obtained.

A membrane covered panel and a membrane covered panel production method are provided wherein an elastomeric membrane, and preferably, an aqueous elastomeric resin-based membrane, is applied to a finished panel construct, prior to pressing of the membrane covered panel. The method is used to produce panels which can be used in the production of flooring materials, wall panels, furniture, countertops, and the like. The membrane is applied to a transfer film, which transfer film can be removed at any time prior to, or after the pressing operation. The panels produced have a durable but elastic surface which can protect the surfaces of the panel construct. The elastomeric covering on the panel construct also preferably provides a surface which is abrasion resistant, and provides better acoustical properties while providing a soft touch haptic surface.

A decoration glass includes a transparent base made of glass, the transparent base having a decoration surface; a decoration pattern layer adhered to the decoration surface by an adhesive layer, the decoration pattern layer being made of UV curing ink; and a coating layer deposited on the decoration pattern layer. A method to form a decoration glass is also provided.

A method for transferring an atomically thin layer comprising providing a target substrate and a donor substrate on which a first atomically thin layer has been formed. The method further comprises disposing an adhesion layer at the donor substrate or at the target substrate. The method further comprises bringing the target substrate and the donor substrate together. Further, the method comprises bonding together the donor substrate, the adhesion layer and the target substrate and removing the donor substrate.

A flexible display is disclosed. In one aspect, the display includes a flexible substrate and a protection film formed over the flexible substrate. The display further includes a layer of adhesive material formed between the flexible substrate and the protection film, wherein a plurality of patterns are formed in the adhesive layer.

A method for producing a polymeric vehicle attachment part with a decorative element is obtained when a polymeric attachment part is prepared, a decorative element is transferred from a carrier film onto a first surface of the attachment part by hot stamping using a stamp, and at least the first surface is provided with a protective coating.

One or more aspects of the present disclosure are directed to bladders that incorporate a multi-layer optical film that impart a structural color to the bladder. The present disclosure is also directed to articles including the bladders having a multi-layer optical film, and methods for making articles and bladders having a multi-layer optical film.

Disclosed is a graphene electrochemical transfer method assisted by multiple supporting films, comprising: (1) growing graphene on a substrate, and then spin-coating a thin layer of photoresist on a surface of the graphene as a first film; (2) spin-coating n layers of thick, tough, and selectively dissolvable polymer films on the surface of the first film as an top film; (3) dissociating the multi-layer composite film and the graphene from the surface of the substrate by an electrochemical process, and dissolving the thick polymer films which is the top film with a first solvent; (4) after cleaning, transferring the thin first film and the graphene to a target substrate, and finally dissolving the thin first film away with a second solvent to complete the transfer process. This transfer process is fast, stable, and capable of transferring a large-size graphene, which may promote the large-scale application of graphene.

Electronic components are often assembled using robotic equipment, such as pick-and-place machines, that is not optimized for components such as ultra-thin semiconductor bare dice. Selective laser-assisted die transfer is described based on the unique blistering behavior of a multilayer dynamic release layer when irradiated by low energy focused laser pulse(s) in which the blister creates translation of the article being placed. Accurate placement results are provided with negligible lateral and angular displacement.
