A manufacturing device of a membrane-electrode assembly for a fuel cell is provided. The manufacturing device includes an electrolyte membrane feeding unit forming a first and second ionomer bases impregnated at both surfaces of a reinforcing layer and unwinding an electrolyte membrane wound in a roll type supplied in a predetermined transporting path. A first patterning unit is disposed at a rear side of the electrolyte membrane feeding unit and patterns a first ionomer protrusion pattern layer on the first ionomer base and a second patterning unit is disposed at the rear side of the first patterning unit and patterns a second ionomer protrusion pattern layer on the second ionomer base. A transfer unit is disposed at the rear side of the second patterning unit and couples a catalyst electrode layer on the first and second ionomer protrusion pattern layers by a roll laminating method.

A fire-protecting insulation product has air-laid mineral wool fibres and a binder. The binder is the result of curing a binder composition comprising at least one hydrocolloid. The product further comprises a particulate endothermic material.

The present invention relates to a system and method for the production of gypsum board using starch pellets. In accordance with the present disclosure, the starch necessary for board formation is provided in the form of starch pellets. These pellets are mixed with a gypsum slurry in a mixer. The pellets are initially insoluble and do not dissolve. However, during subsequent drying stages, the pellets become soluble and dissolve into the gypsum phase. This both provides the desired starch component and also results in the formation of voids within the set gypsum.

Methods of producing core layers with a variable basis weight across a width of the core layer and with a substantially uniform thickness across the width of the core layer are described. The core layers can be used in wall panels such as those present in recreational vehicle panels. Systems and various materials used to produce the core layers and articles are also described.

The invention relates to a process for manufacturing a laminated material (S) comprising a fibrillated cellulose layer, characterized in that it comprises the following steps: (a) depositing a suspension (1) of fibrillated cellulose on a filtration membrane (2) and draining the suspension through that membrane so as to form a wet layer of fibrillated cellulose (A) having a dryness, that is to say a ratio between the mass of dry matter and the total mass of the fibrillated cellulose layer, of between 5% and 18%; (b) transferring the wet layer (A) under pressure to an at least partially hydrophilic surface of a substrate (B), so as to form the laminated material (S); (c) drying the laminated material. The invention also relates to a device for implementing the process.

The laminate comprises a porcelain sheet with a thickness of two to three millimetres, adhered to a base or support sheet made of MDF or particleboard or high density foam or polyethylene or polypropylene or ABS or foamed PVC or methacrylate or a metal sheet of aluminium or steel, using as the adhesion means a two-component polyurethane or a PUR adhesive, producing a laminate that encompasses the advantages of the nature of the two materials, the porcelain and the base, as well as saving material, and being lighter, having higher thermal and acoustic insulation levels, improved resistance to bending loads and allowing to add additional layers, such as a metal sheet of thickness from 0.1 to 1 mm in order to obtain a greater flatness, or a combination with rubber or elastomer layers to improve the acoustic insulation level.

The present invention discloses an optical assembly. The optical assembly comprises: a first optical film having a first surface; an adhesive disposed on the first surface of the first optical film, wherein the adhesive comprises a photo-curable portion and a thermally-curable portion mixed with the photo-curable portion, wherein the weight ratio of the thermally-curable portion of the adhesive to the adhesive is less than 5%; and a second optical film comprising a photo-curable material, wherein the adhesive is bonded to the second optical film through the bonding between the photo-curable portion of the adhesive and the photo-curable material of the second optical film without relying on the bonding between the thermally-curable portion of the adhesive and the photo-curable material of the second optical film.

A method for producing a cladding part for vehicles with a cladding part body that forms a cladding in the mounted state. A sandwich panel is formed and extends two-dimensionally in a plane with at least one transparent thermoplastic upper layer, a prefabricated, postprocessing-free intermediate layer, and a thermoplastic base layer. The at least three-layered sandwich plate is subsequently three-dimensionally formed under the influence of heat into a sandwich element forming the cladding part body.

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.
