The method for the production of curved furniture components comprises: an overlapping step of a first panel of wooden, plastic or metal material, of at least one intermediate separating layer and of a second panel of wooden, plastic or metal material for obtaining a flat semi-finished product having a perimeter edge; an interposition step of a polyurethane type adhesive between the intermediate layer and the first panel and second panel by hot dispensing of said adhesive on the surfaces of the first and the second panels which are adapted to be associated with the intermediate layer or by hot dispensing of the adhesive on the surfaces of the intermediate layer which are adapted to be associated with said first panel and second panel; a cold shaping step of the semi-finished product for obtaining a curved component; and a spraying step of a water-based auxiliary substance between the intermediate layer and at least one of the first panel and the second panel, subsequent to the interposition of the adhesive.

The present invention relates to a method for making a leather laminate having a textured surface, and leather laminates made by this method. The laminates comprise a leather layer bonded to a reinforcing fabric with an adhesive, the reinforcing fabric providing strength to the laminate. The method involves dry milling the laminate in humid air, during which the reinforcing fabric constrains the laminate causing the textured surface to form.

A method of producing a building panel, including: providing a core, applying a balancing layer having a first moisture content on a first surface of the core, the balancing layer comprising a sheet impregnated with a thermosetting binder, applying a surface layer having a second moisture content on a second surface of the core, the surface layer comprising a thermosetting binder, adjusting the first moisture content of the balancing layer such that the first moisture content of the balancing layer is higher than the second moisture content of the surface layer prior to curing, and curing the surface layer and the balancing layer by applying heat and pressure. Also, a semi-finished product adapted to be cured for forming a building panel.

An embossing apparatus for producing a fluffy multilayer web product includes a first embossing assembly that forms a first embossed pattern on a first web product and a second embossing assembly that forms a second embossed pattern on a second web product. The first web product is humidified by a first humidifying device before being conveyed to the first web product embossing assembly, and the second web product is humidified by a second humidifying device before being conveyed to the second web product embossing assembly. The first web product that is formed with the first embossed pattern is applied with glue and then conveyed, together with the second web product that is formed with the second embossed pattern, to pass between a laminating roller and the first steel embossing roller to be then out fed along an out-feeding path.

A method to customize a journal or planner uses an ink transfer sheet having a desired image thereon such that the ink transfer sheet is positioned on one of the pages of the journal and the image on the ink transfer sheet is transferred to the journal's page in the appropriate manner for the particular type of ink transfer sheet used. Multiple sheets are used to customize the various pages of the journal. The ink transfer sheet can be any appropriate ink transfer sheet such as a decal sheet bound to an adhesive sheet or a silk screened transfer film bound to a backing paper with a non-slip layer therebetween.

A method for producing a film-coated metal plate, comprising the steps of: (1) pre-heating and soaking a metal plate; (2) hot coating the metal plate with a thin film; (3) cooling the metal plate; (4) compressing the metal plate to dry it; (5) reheating and post-processing the metal plate. This method is able to produce a metal plate having a thin film coated on the surface thereof and to easily control the thickness of a melting layer of the thin film in the process of production, especially control the difference between the thicknesses of the melting layers on both sides; and meanwhile, this method is able to increase the cooling rate. Accordingly, this method enhances the performance of the film-coated metal plate and increases the application range of the film-coated metal plate by means of a more environmentally friendly producing process and lower energy consumption, and is able to produce good economic and social benefits. The film-coated metal plate produced by this method can be used for food and beverage package. A device for producing a film-coated metal plate, which can produce a film-coated metal plate using the described method for producing a film-coated metal plate. The device comprises: an induction heating apparatus, an offset roller (4), a thin film guide roller (6), a film-coating roller (7), a cooling apparatus (9), a compressing and drying roller (12), a reheating apparatus (14) and an air cooling apparatus (15).

Stretchable elastic laminates having an improved cloth-like appearance, as well as methods of preparing the laminates, are disclosed herein. Particularly, the present disclosure is directed to methods of preparing tissue-elastic laminates with uniform tissue fractures as the laminate is stretched 50%, or even 100%, or more in at least one of the machine direction (MD) or cross direction (CD).

A method of making large ultrathin free-standing polymer films without use of a sacrificial layer includes the steps of providing a substrate, applying a polyelectrolyte material to said substrate, applying a polymer material onto said substrate and onto said polyelectrolyte material, and directly delaminating said polymer material from said substrate and said polyelectrolyte to produce the ultrathin free-standing polymer film.
