The thermosetting resin layer is formed by immersing the reinforcing material in a thermosetting resin composition. The thermosetting resin composition includes a polyphenylene ether resin, a liquid polybutadiene resin, a crosslinker, and fillers. Based on a total weight of the thermosetting resin composition being 100 phr, an amount of the fillers ranges from 50 phr to 70 phr. The fillers include a granular dielectric filler and a flaky thermal conductive filler. The metallic clad laminate is formed by disposing at least one metal layer onto the prepreg.

Embodiments disclosed herein relate to composite laminate structures including a polymer layer having sp.sup.2 carbon-containing material and improved heat release properties, and methods of making the same.

A composite structure is provided that includes a polymer layer and an auxetic material layer disposed within or partially within the polymer layer. The auxetic material layer provides increased conductivity and elastomeric reinforcement to the polymer layer.

The invention relates to a multilayer prepreg comprising a first and a second fiber prepreg, one or two micaceous prepregs and B staged thermosetting resin, which may be different for each layer or identical. The micaceous prepregs are positioned on the top (outside) of the fiber prepregs. There may be plurality of further fiber prepregs. The micaceous prepregs preferably comprise mica flakes in the form of a mica paper. The use of such prepreg as surfacing layer at the top of a composite material or near the top of a composite material can determine an improvement in burn-through and fire retardancy performance of composite materials. It is also disclosed a cured composite panel, such as an aircraft part, obtainable by curing the multilayer prepreg to a C stage.

A laminate, containing two or more polyolefin resin layers, wherein at least one polyolefin resin layer (A) contains a cellulose fiber including a cellulose fiber having a fiber length of 0.3 mm or more dispersed in the layer; a content of the cellulose fiber in the polyolefin resin layer (A) is 1% by mass or more and less than 60% by mass; and wherein a polyolefin resin layer (B) different from the polyolefin resin layer (A) is laminated in contact with the polyolefin resin layer (A).

A soundproof member is provided. The soundproof member includes a structural element, and a first composite film which is disposed on the bottom surface of the structural element. The structural member includes at least one through hole and the through hole passes through the structural element. The first composite film includes a polymer material and an inorganic nanoscale material, wherein the inorganic nanoscale material is a one-dimensional inorganic nanoscale material or a two-dimensional inorganic nanoscale material.

A high barrier packaging film has an outer layer of a high molecular polymer or a spunbond nonwoven fabric comprising a high molecular polymer, a passive barrier layer of the same high molecular polymer with nanoparticles of bentonite clay dispersed therein, an active barrier layer of the same high molecular polymer with desiccant particles dispersed therein, and a lamination layer of the same high molecular polymer. The outer layer, passive barrier layer and active barrier layer are compound laminated with the lamination layer to form the high barrier packaging film. Because the layers are all formed of a same polymer, such as polyethylene, and because there are no metal components in the layers used to create the film, the high barrier packaging film is readily recyclable.
