The present invention relates to a decorative material having excellent printability, and the decorative material according to the present invention has an ink-receiving layer having a radially fine sloping structure having a dendritic shape, whereby the absorbing and/or fixing property, i.e., printability, of the ink printed on the ink-receiving layer is improved, and clarity is excellent, so that aesthetic effects are excellent. In addition, since the ink-receiving layer is manufactured through UV curing, it can be directly coated on a substrate layer, and can include various kinds of substrate layers; and since it is manufactured using a solvent-free type resin composition without using an organic solvent, and has an excellent absorbing and/or fixing property with respect to a water soluble ink, it has environmental friendly advantages.

A transparent conductive film includes a metal oxide, a metal, and an epoxy, wherein a refractive index of the metal may be lower than that of the epoxy.

The present invention provides a barrier film laminate including a first barrier film that includes a first substrate layer and a first barrier layer formed on the first substrate layer, a second barrier film that includes a second substrate layer and a second barrier layer formed on the substrate layer, and an adhesive layer. In the barrier film laminate, the first barrier film is bonded with the second barrier film so that the first barrier layer faces the second barrier layer with the adhesive layer interposed therebetween. In one embodiment of the barrier film laminate, the adhesive layer is formed of an adhesive containing an epoxy resin, a curing agent having an amino group, and either a silane coupling agent having an epoxy group or a silane coupling agent having an amino group and two hydrolyzable functional groups.

The invention relates to a multilayer biaxially oriented polyester film comprising a base layer B, an amorphous outer layer A and a further outer layer C, where this polyester film is suitable for lamination with metal sheets. The invention in particular relates to a polyester film which comprises (based on the mass of polyester) from 2 to 15% by weight of isophthalate-derived units in the base layer and which comprises more than 19% by weight of isophthalate-derived units in the amorphous layer A, and which has a silane-based coating on the outer layer A. The invention further relates to a process for the production of these films.

Medical devices described herein include a melt-pressed film having first and second diffusion barrier layers disposed thereon. The melt-pressed film and the barrier layers comprise bioabsorbable copolymers. In a further aspect, a therapeutic agent, such as an analgesic is included in the medical device.

An eye protector includes a lens configured to protect the wearer from projectiles, and an optically clear stack attached to the lens. The stack can have one or more removable layers. The eye protector also includes an optically clear dry mount adhesive layer attaching the stack to the lens. The dry mount adhesive may be self-wetting to attach the stack to the lens so that air between the stack and the lens can be removed after the stack is attached and/or adhered to the lens, for example, by applying pressure across the surface of the stack. The refractive indices of the lens, the dry mount adhesive, and each removable layer are matched to within about 0.2.

A pressure-sensitive adhesive layer-including transparent electrically conductive sheet 2 includes a first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, a hard coat layer 4 disposed on a one surface 32 in a thickness direction of the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, a transparent electrically conductive layer 5 disposed on a one surface 42 in the thickness direction of the hard coat layer 4, and a second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 6 disposed on the one surface 42 in the thickness direction of the hard coat layer 4 so as to cover the transparent electrically conductive layer 5. In a first direction, each of both edge surfaces 43 of the hard coat layer 4 is disposed inside with respect to each of both edge surfaces 33 of the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, and is disposed inside with respect to each of both edge surfaces 63 of the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 6.

A tear resistant multilayer film including a stack of polymeric layers that includes first and second layer types. Layers of the first layer type includes a first polymer and the layers of the second layer type includes a second polymer. The first polymer is polyethylene terephthalate or a first ester block copolymer that includes polyethylene terephthalate blocks at a weight percent of the first ester block copolymer of at least 50 percent and further includes glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate blocks. The second polymer is sebacic acid-substituted polyethylene terephthalate or a second ester block copolymer that includes sebacic acid-substituted polyethylene terephthalate blocks at a weight percent of the second ester block copolymer of at least 50 percent and further includes polyethylene terephthalate blocks or glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate blocks. The tear resistant multilayer film includes a total of 8 to 300 layers of the first and second layer types.

A polymeric piezoelectric material, comprising at least two regions: a region H, which is an oriented polymeric piezoelectric region that includes an optically active helical chiral polymer (A) having a weight average molecular weight of from 50,000 to 1,000,000, the region H having a crystallinity of from 20% to 80% and having a standardized molecular orientation-of from 3.5 to 15.0; and a region L, which is a low orientation region that includes the optically active helical chiral polymer (A) having a weight average molecular weight of from 50,000 to 1,000,000, the region L being present near at least part of an end portion of the region H, having an average width when viewed from a normal direction with respect to the principal plane of the region H of from 10 μm to 300 μm, and having a retardation is 100 nm or less.

A roll if formed of a plurality of large but thin, elongated strips of decorative material. The strips may have a length greater than ten feet and a width of at least one foot and including at least a top strip and a bottom strip with the bottom side of each strip having a dry, pressure sensitive adhesive configured to releasably adhere to an adjoining top side of a different strip, except for the bottom strip which is releasably adhered to a release layer. Each elongated strip has a thickness less than 0.02 inches and a refractive index greater than 0.2, with a plurality of initial release areas at periodic locations along the length of the elongated strips.
