An interface transition for use in compression in connection with panels where air and/or water penetration is undesirable having a first body, a second body, an adhesive layer positioned intermediate the first body and the second body, and an impregnation into at least the first body, wherein the combination of the bodies, adhesive layer and impregnation reduces the air leakage rate therethrough and moisture infiltration therein after the interface transition is compressed to a width 75% of its uncompressed width. The interface transition may include an extension member for splicing and construction of a four-way intersection.

Disclosed herein is a molded article made from two different polyurethane foam laminate materials, which displays both softness and resilience to machine washing. Also disclosed herein is a method of making said foam article.

An automotive crash pad and a method for manufacturing the same. The automotive crash pad includes: a skin layer forming the outer surface of the crash pad including an airbag module; a fiber-based layer formed on the lower surface of the skin layer; a cushion layer formed on the lower surface of the fiber-based layer and including slab foam; and a core layer formed on the lower surface of the cushion layer, wherein a laminate of the skin layer and the fiber-based layer has a tensile strength in transverse direction (TD) of 5 to 50 kgf/3 cm and an elongation at break in transverse direction (TD) of 40 to 220%.

A laminate structure comprises a protective layer and a backing structure. The backing structure comprises a first support layer comprising an aerogel and a second support layer comprising a polymer and is arranged so that the second support layer is provided between the protective layer and the first support layer.

Disclosed is a writing board attached to a surface for receiving notes or instructions from a user. The writing board includes vinyl foam, a flexible coating, and an adhesive layer. The writing board further includes a second temporary backing film. The vinyl foam includes a top surface and a microscopic cavernous surface. The flexible coating is coated on one of the microscopic cavernous surface to render the vinyl foam air-tight. The temporary backing film covers the microscopic cavernous surface coated with the flexible coating. A user peels off the temporary backing film to firmly attach the vinyl foam to the surface. The erase film is attached to the top surface of the vinyl foam. The erase film allows the user to write and erase content. The adhesive layer attaches the erase film to the top surface of the vinyl foam.
