The present, invention relates to a highly transparent, biaxially oriented, UV-resistant polyester film which has, at least on one side, a coating that reduces reflection of visible light. The. film of the invention is suitable for the production of energy-saving sheet materials for greenhouses, in particular for cultivation of plants with high light requirement, e.g. tomatoes. The film has specific transparency properties and high UV resistance. The invention further relates to a process for the production of the polyester film, and also to use of the film in greenhouses.

The method for producing a thermally conductive sheet according to the present invention comprises: a step (1) of obtaining a liquid composition comprising a curable silicone composition including an alkenyl group-containing organopolysiloxane and a hydrogen organopolysiloxane, a thermally conductive filler, and a volatile compound; a step (2) of sandwiching the liquid composition between two resin sheets at least one of which is a gas-permeable film and pressurizing these to obtain a sheet-shaped formed product; and a step (3) of heating the sheet-shaped formed product to volatilize at least a part of the volatile compound. According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a method for producing a thermally conductive sheet having a good sheet condition and a low thermal resistance value.

The present invention provides a functional sheet including a functional layer provided between protective layers. The functional layer is a polarizing film layer, a photochromic layer, or a combination of the polarizing film layer and the photochromic layer. At least one of the protective layers includes a layer formed of a resin (C) containing a polyester resin (A) obtained as a result of polycondensation of 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol and 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid and an aromatic polycarbonate resin (B), the polyester resin (A) being contained at a content of 10 to 100 parts by mass and the aromatic polycarbonate resin (B) being contained at a content of 0 to 90 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass as a total of the polyester resin (A) and the aromatic polycarbonate resin (B). A lens is provided with such a functional sheet.

The present invention relates to a multilayer container preform and a multilayer container, said preform or container comprising a base, a body and a neck finish, said base and body comprising an outer layer defining an exterior surface, an inner layer defining an interior surface and interior space, and an intermediate layer disposed between the outer layer and the inner layer, said outer layer and said inner layer comprising a primary material selected from the group consisting of a 2,5-furandicarboxylate polyester or co-polyester or a blend thereof, and said intermediate layer comprising a secondary material different from the primary material, but compatible with the primary material. The invention relates to methods of producing such a multilayer container preform and multilayer container

A multilayer film comprises (a) two or more non-plasticized layers comprising lactic acid polymer and (b) one or more plasticized layers comprising lactic acid polymer and plasticizer sandwiched between the two or more lactic acid polymer layers; wherein the thickness of the one or more plasticized layers comprises from about 60% to about 70% of the total thickness of the multilayer film.

The present disclosure provides a biodegradable and compostable multilayer film. The biodegradable and compostable multilayer film comprises a sealant product side layer comprising at least one slip additive and having a pre-determined co-efficient of friction, an outer surface layer, and at least one intermediate layer disposed between the sealant product 5 side layer and the outer surface layer. The biodegradable and compostable multilayer film of the present disclosure has good mechanical properties and is non-reactive with tobacco based products, medicines, and food products to be packaged.

A multilayer film can comprise: a plurality of layers, preferably 4 layers to 128 layers, comprising: a polymer A layer comprising a polycarbonate copolymer and a polymer B layer comprising a semi-crystalline polyester; wherein a differential solubility parameter (Δδ.sub.AB) of polymer A towards polymer B (Δδ.sub.AB) is greater than or equal to 2.6 MPa.sup.1/2; and an interdiffusion region between each polymer A and polymer B. The multilayer film has a dynamic flexure of greater than or equal to 200,000 cycles, as determine by bending 180° on a 10 mm radius cylinder at a rate of 1 hertz. The multilayer film has a total thickness of 40 μm to 70 μm, a transmission at 360 nm to 750 nm of greater than or equal to 89% and a haze of less than or equal to 1%.

A screen protector includes an upper light-pervious substrate, a printed layer, an adhesive layer, and a lower light-pervious substrate. The printed layer is disposed at one side of the upper light-pervious substrate. The printed layer has a hollow light-pervious area. The adhesive layer is disposed at one side of the printed layer opposite the upper light-pervious substrate. The adhesive layer is configured to fill the hollow light-pervious area so that one side of the adhesive layer, opposite the printed layer, is a flat surface. The lower light-pervious substrate is disposed at the side of the adhesive layer opposite the printed layer. An edge of the screen protector is provided with a curved section corresponding to a curved surface of an edge of a screen. Thereby, the screen protector can be easily and accurately attached to the screen to fully protect the screen.
