The disclosure provides a core layer for an information carrying card, resulting information carrying card, and methods of making the same. A core layer for an information carrying card comprises at least one thermoplastic layer having at least one cavity, an inlay layer, and, and a crosslinked polymer composition. At least one portion of the inlayer layer is disposed inside the at least one cavity of the at least one thermoplastic layer. The crosslinked polymer composition is disposed over the at least one thermoplastic layer and contacting the inlayer layer.

Vacuum lamination methods for forming conformally coated articles having a preformed lamination layer conformally coated to or on an object such as an LED array are provided. These vacuum lamination methods utilize a single heating step to heat a middle portion of the preformed lamination layer to a flowable condition prior to the preformed lamination layer being conformally coated over the article, such as the array of light emitting diodes disposed on an inner portion of a first side of a submount wafer.

An interlayer structure having a cellulose ester layer for use in structural laminates is described herein. The cellulose ester layer provides rigidity and support to multilayer interlayers comprising an array of different layers. Due to the diverse properties of the cellulose ester layers, the present interlayers can be useful in producing structural laminates having high stiffness and which possess good optical clarity for a variety of applications, including outdoor structural applications.

Described herein are organosilicon modification layers and associated deposition methods and inert gas treatments that may be applied on a sheet, a carrier, or both, to control van der Waals, hydrogen and covalent bonding between a sheet and carrier. The modification layers bond the sheet and carrier together such that a permanent bond is prevented at high temperature processing as well as maintaining a sufficient bond to prevent delamination during high temperature processing.

A method for manufacturing a tool including assembling a stack-up that includes a plurality of precured composite laminates, the stack-up having an engagement surface, wherein each precured composite laminate of the plurality of precured composite laminates is flexible, and wherein an adhesive is positioned between adjacent precured composite laminates of the plurality of precured composite laminates, and placing the engagement surface of the stack-up onto a target surface of a substrate.

Described are methods of two-dimensionally and three-dimensionally forming an article of wear using vacuum forming in an automated process. In the two-dimensional method, the article of wear comprises a generally flat shape with three-dimensional features molded into the first material layer.

Methods and systems are provided for fabricating a composite structure. In one example, the composite structure may include a honeycomb core sandwiched between face sheets. An edge of the honeycomb core may be abraded and a top face sheet may be perforated. As such, a likelihood of delamination of the composite structure during a curing step may be reduced.

A method for producing a composite glass pane, includes placing a first glass pane having a thickness less than or equal to 1 mm on a support mould, wherein the first glass pane is curved into a shape determined by the support mould; placing at least one thermoplastic film on the first glass pane; placing a curved second glass pane having a thickness greater than or equal to 1.5 mm on the thermoplastic film; and joining the first glass pane to the second glass pane via the thermoplastic film to form a composite glass pane by lamination.

The present disclosure relates to a laminating method and device for a display module, a display module and an electronic device. The laminating method includes steps of: laminating a second panel on a first surface of a first panel, and positioning the second panel relative to the first panel; and coating a bonding adhesive on a side surface of the second panel along an outer circumference of the second panel and curing the bonding adhesive to form a sealing frame adhesive on an outer circumference side of the second panel and the first surface of the first panel, so that the first panel and the second panel are bonded and fixed by the sealing frame adhesive, wherein a gap defined by the sealing frame adhesive, the first panel and the second panel is in a negative pressure state.

A vacuum lamination system includes a film supply assembly, a film collection assembly, a lower lamination body, an upper lamination body, an air extractor, a moving assembly and a cutting assembly. The lower lamination body includes a first casing base and a lower heating assembly vertically movable and disposed in the first casing base. The lower heating assembly carries and moves the substrate so that the substrate is substantially flush with a top surface of the first casing base or retracted into the first casing base. The upper lamination body is vertically movable and disposed above the lower lamination body and includes an upper casing and an upper heating assembly disposed on the upper casing. The air extractor is connected to the lower lamination body. The moving assembly changes a height of a portion of the film. The cutting assembly cuts a portion of the film laminated onto the substrate.
