An interlayer film for laminated glass of the present invention is an interlayer film for laminated glass, comprising one or two or more resin layers, and comprising a first resin layer comprising a resin and a light diffusion particle, in which any resin layer in the interlayer film for laminated glass comprises a colorant.

The present invention is directed to a packaging material, more specifically a packaging material having gas and/or moisture barrier properties, wherein the material comprises a barrier material comprising a layer comprising at least 50% of a zinc ionomer, a layer of polyethylene and a layer that forms a gas barrier. The invention is also directed to packaging products using said barrier material. Such products are in particular packages suitable for cosmetics and personal care products.

Hoses include a tube, a reinforcement layer disposed outwardly from the tube, and a cover layer disposed outwardly from the reinforcement layer. The cover layer may be based on a first elastomeric blend of a first chlorinated polyethylene and chlorosulphonated polyethylene, a first flame-resistant composition, and a peroxide/sulfur curing system. The tube may be based upon a second elastomeric blend of a second chlorinated polyethylene and ethylene vinyl acetate rubber, a second flame-resistant composition, and a peroxide curing system. The first flame-resistant package and the second flame-resistant package includes one or more ingredients selected from the group consisting of antimony oxide, zinc molybdate/magnesium silicate complex, magnesium aluminum hydroxy carbonate, and aluminum trihydroxide. In some aspects, the hoses meet the testing performance requirements of EN 45545-2, HL2/R22 category standard, and EN854 type 2TE standard.

The present invention relates to a flexible ballistic armor apparatus for deflecting high velocity firearm, fragmentation, or shrapnel projectiles with a flexible armor unit. The apparatus minimizes the deterioration of the armor when subjected to shock waves or shear forces of a ballistic impact. The present invention also relates to the use of a flexible armor unit with soft body armor, a vehicle, a vessel, an aircraft or in structural applications.

There is provided a multilayered tube for transporting liquid chemicals containing an outermost layer and an innermost layer, the innermost layer containing a polyamide (A), an impact modifier (B), and a carbon nanotube (C), wherein the number of projections each having a height of 5 μm or more and a longitudinal width of 20 μm or more, which are present on the surface of the innermost layer, is 2 or less per 1 mm.sup.2 of surface area; and the number of agglomerates each having a longitudinal width of 5 μm or more, which are present in the cross section of the innermost layer, is 15 or less per 1 mm.sup.2 of cross-sectional area. There is also provided a polyamide resin composition constituting the innermost layer of the multilayered tube for transporting liquid chemicals.

A method for bonding composite substrates includes coupling a first co-cure prepreg layer having a first off-set amine to epoxide molar ratio onto a surface of a first composite substrate and coupling a second co-cure prepreg layer having a second off-set amine to epoxide molar ratio onto a surface of a second composite substrate. The first and second composite substrates are cured to the first and second co-cure prepreg layers, respectively, using a first cure cycle (including B-stage and cure temperatures) to form a first and a second co-cure prepreg layer portion. The method further includes coupling the first co-cure prepreg layer portion to the second co-cure prepreg layer portion and applying a second cure cycle to cure the first co-cure prepreg layer portion of the first composite substrate to the second co-cure prepreg layer portion of the second composite substrate to form a monolithic covalently bonded composite structure.

A glueless dustless composite flooring material system providing PVC-based flooring having layers providing different qualities of hardness, wear-resistance, sound deadening, and decorative patterns, avoiding the use of moisture-susceptible compressed dust filler, with layers fused together, avoiding the manufacturing complexity and delamination risks of using glue or adhesive, with a quickly-cured, UV-cured top coating providing long-lasting high performance and shortening and simplifying the manufacturing, which can be done in a sheet-form, essentially continuous-run manner, with an ability to quickly and simply change the optional design printing and texturing produced, and having an optional underlayment layer.
