Described herein is a construction comprising a microsphere layer comprising a plurality of microspheres, wherein the microspheres comprise glass, ceramic, and combinations thereof; a bead bonding layer, wherein the plurality of microspheres is partially embedded in the bead bonding layer forming a first surface comprising exposed microspheres, wherein the plurality of microspheres on the first surface are truncated. Also disclosed herein are articles comprising the construction and methods of making thereof.

A reinforced insulation assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes insulation, a reinforcement layer, and an adhesive for attaching the reinforcement layer to a surface of the insulation. The reinforced layer is fully immersed within the adhesive and penetrates the surface of the insulation.

A board consisting at least of a substrate formed at least of a gypsum-based and/or cement-based basic material layer. The board is provided with a chamfer extending through the basic material layer.

The laminate of the present disclosure includes multiple glass ceramic layers each containing quartz and a glass that contains SiO.sub.2, B.sub.2O.sub.3, Al.sub.2O.sub.3, and M.sub.2O, where M is an alkali metal. The B concentration of a surface layer portion of the laminate is lower than the B concentration of an inner layer portion of the laminate.

Disclosed is a sole-type body member, which is a main body of a shoe sole or an insole, is laminated on the sheet-type coated cork, and is then pressed and heated so that a part of the sole-type body member is inserted into the main-body-coupling opening, thereby achieving coupling therebetween.

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a multilayer radiation window for an X-ray measurement apparatus. The method comprises: producing a gas diffusion stop layer made of silicon nitride on a polished surface of a carrier; producing at least one combined layer on an opposite side of said gas diffusion stop layer than said carrier; attaching the combined structure comprising said carrier, said gas diffusion stop layer, said at least one combined layer to a region around an opening in a support structure with the at least one combined layer facing said support structure; and etching away said carrier. The at least one combined layer comprises: a light attenuation layer made of aluminium, and a strengthening layer. The invention relates also a radiation window manufactured with the method.

Presented are fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sandwich structures, methods for making/using such FRP sandwich structures, and motor vehicles with a vehicle component fabricated from a compression molded thermoset or thermoplastic FRP sandwich structure. A multidimensional composite sandwich structure includes first and second (skin) layers formed from a thermoset of thermoplastic polymer matrix, such as resin or nylon, filled with a fiber reinforcing material, such as chopped carbon fibers. A third (core) layer, which is encased between the first and second skin layers, is formed from a thermoset/thermoplastic polymer matrix filled with a fiber reinforcing material and a filler material, such as hollow glass microspheres. The first, second and third layers have respective rheological flow properties that are substantially similar such that all three layers flow in unison at a predetermined compression molding pressure. These layers may be formed from the same thermoset/thermoplastic polymer material, and include the same fiber reinforcing material.

A laminated sheet includes a sheet-shaped inductor including a plurality of wirings and a magnetic layer embedding the plurality of wirings, and a processing stability layer disposed on at least one surface 6 in a thickness direction of the inductor. The magnetic layer includes a binder and a magnetic particle having a generally flat shape and whose material is a metal. The processing stability layer includes a cured product of a thermosetting resin composition. The thermosetting resin composition includes a thermosetting resin as an essential component. The thermosetting resin composition includes at least one kind of particle, as an optical component, selected from the group consisting of a first particle having a generally spherical shape and a second particle having a generally flat shape and whose material is an inorganic compound.

An artificial turf system (100, 500) comprises an artificial turf layer (102), an upper elastic layer (104) positioned below the artificial turf layer, and a geogrid (106). The geogrid is positioned between the first elastic layer and a lower elastic layer. The lower elastic layer (108) is positioned below the geogrid.
