A method of manufacturing a double-sided polarizing plate and a double-sided polarizing plate manufactured using the same are provided. The method of manufacturing a double-sided polarizing plate includes attaching transparent films to both surfaces of a polarizer by means of adhesive layers, irradiating the adhesive layers with active energy rays emitted by an energy source disposed in a single direction with respect to the polarizer, and thermally treating a surface of the transparent film disposed opposite to the energy source at a temperature of 25° C. to 65° C.

A continuous process for preparing insulation panels having thick (0.2 mm to 1 mm) metal facing panels and a fiber-reinforced polymer foam core is disclosed. In the process, a bottom metal facing panel (2) is continuously supplied. A mat (10) of reinforcing fibers and a foamable resin composition (19) are applied to the bottom facing panel. A flexible barrier layer (5) is applied atop the foamable resin composition, and the assembly is passed through nip rolls (12,13) to compress the assembly and force the resin composition into the fiber mat. An adhesive layer (4) and top metallic facing layer (1) are then applied on top of the flexible barrier layer, and the resulting assembly is gauged and cured by passing it through a double band laminator (11).

A method of bonding a vulcanized elastomer is provided comprising the steps of; providing an adhesive comprising a primary acrylate monomer, a reactive flexibilizing monomer, and further optionally comprising a toughener, an adhesion promoter and a free radical initiator, then depositing the adhesive on at least one surface of an elastomer or a second substrate, wherein the elastomer is a vulcanized elastomer, then bringing the elastomer substrate and second substrate together with the adhesive disposed therebetween, and allowing the adhesive to cure and bond the elastomer and second substrate together at a temperature of less than about 100° C. to produce a bonded structure.

Provided is a thin glass-laminated printed steel sheet comprising: a printed steel sheet including a metal sheet and a printed layer on which a design or a pattern having a high resolution of 300 dpi or higher is printed on a surface of the metal sheet; an adhesive layer formed by curing an ultraviolet curable adhesive solution on the printed steel sheet, having a thickness of 10 to 100 μm, and being transparent; and a flexible thin glass attached by the adhesive layer, wherein a reference value for color density (D.sub.max Comparison) is higher than 1.6, as measured by a spectrophotometer.

Provided is a display device. The display device comprises: a display module including a display panel, wherein the display panel includes a display area having a plurality of pixels and an alignment mark area surrounded by the display area, and a display driver driving at least one of the plurality of pixels in the alignment mark area to form an alignment mark; and a stereoscopic lens including a base disposed on the display module, a plurality of lenses disposed on the base at an angle offset from a side of the display module, and a marking portion formed on one or more of the plurality of lenses to overlap the alignment mark area.

A laminating machine includes UV curing elements within the process chamber to cure a UV curable adhesive in a laminating stack while being heated in an autoclave. In an automated process, the laminating machine applies pressure to the stack for pressure sensitive adhesion, then autoclave heating and simultaneous UV curing. The UV curing elements are disposed in the body of the process chamber, the lid of the process chamber, or a separate appliance. The appliance can be releasably attached to the process chamber body or lid. The laminating machine is programmed for specific autoclave and UV exposure profiles specific to the UV curable adhesives being used.
