A polishing article includes a polishing layer having a working surface including at least one multi-cell structure disposed on the working surface. The multi-cell structure includes three cells, defined as a first cell, a second cell and a third cell. Each of the three cells includes at least one sidewall defining a cell shape. The first cell and the second cell include a first common sidewall including a first channel, having a first channel length, allowing fluid communication between the first cell and the second cell, and a first axis perpendicular to the first channel length and substantially parallel to the working surface. Further, the second cell and the third cell include a second common sidewall including a second channel, having a second channel length, allowing fluid communication between the second cell and the third cell, and a second axis perpendicular to the second channel length and substantially parallel to the working surface. An included angle between the first axis and the second axis is from 0° to less than 180°.

Abstract: A label (1; 50) for a tyre (100) of vehicle wheels comprises: at least a first layer (4) which is made of an elastomer material which is compatible with the elastomer material of a sidewall (102) of the tyre, an external surface (2) which is intended to remain visible when the label is coupled to the sidewall, a plurality of recesses (10) which are formed at the external surface (2) and which are capable of generally defining at least one portion of information which is set out on the label (1; 50). The elastomer material of which the first layer (4) is made comprises a quantity of a halogenated isobutylene polymer greater than 5 phr.

Provided is an interlayer film for laminated glass capable of suppressing the change in sound insulating property of laminated glass in a relatively high temperature region. An interlayer film for laminated glass according to the present invention is an interlayer film for laminated glass having a one-layer structure or a two or more-layer structure, and when the interlayer film is sandwiched between two sheets of green glass having a thickness of 2 mm to obtain a laminated glass X with a size of 25 mm long x 300 mm wide, an absolute value of difference between a secondary resonance frequency of the laminated glass X before irradiation with xenon light and a secondary resonance frequency of the laminated glass X after irradiation with xenon light determined by a specific xenon light irradiation test is 70 Hz or less, a loss factor at 20° C. of the laminated glass X is 0.24 or more, and a solar transmittance of the laminated glass X is 50 or less.

Conformable, stretchable, printable films are described. In particular, films that include a film substrate, a pressure sensitive adhesive, and a hybrid solvent barrier/primer layer including a blend of two copolyamides that are not miscible are described. Such hybrid solvent barrier and primer layers may be effective as both a solvent barrier and a primer layer.

The present invention relates to optical fiber communication cables, and more particularly, relates to foamed polyvinylidene fluoride polymer filler rods used in optical fiber cable constructions. The foamed polyvinylidene fluoride polymer filler rod may or may not contain a central strength member. This invention includes cables containing the foamed PVDF filler rods of this invention. The present disclosure provides filler rods that have higher melting temperature than the conventional filler rods and methods of making the filler rods.
