A method for providing a honeycomb core assembly that includes obtaining a honeycomb core having at least first and second cells that each define a cell interior having an open bottom and an open top, contacting the honeycomb core with a liquid foaming adhesive, contacting a hardening agent with the liquid foaming adhesive, and allowing the hardening agent and liquid foaming adhesive to react to harden and form a first barrier member that spans the cell interior of the first cell and a second barrier member that spans the cell interior of the second cell, thereby forming the honeycomb core assembly.

Provided is a foam sheet that can raise an electrostatic capacitance at the time of compression, and hence can improve sensitivity when used for an electrostatic capacitance sensor. The foam sheet includes: a foam layer; and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer arranged on at least one side of the foam layer, wherein the foam sheet has a dielectric constant increase amount Q-P at 10% compression of 0.2 (F/m) or more, where P (F/m) represents a dielectric constant of the foam sheet immediately after the foam sheet has been left at rest under conditions of a temperature of 23 C. and a humidity of 50% for 2 hours, and Q (F/m) represents a dielectric constant of the foam sheet at a time when the foam sheet is compressed by 10% immediately after being left at rest under the conditions of a temperature of 23 C. and a humidity of 50% for 2 hours.

The present disclosure provides a mold of a resin body capable of reducing the cost of manufacturing a resin body including a resin base material and a foamed resin part provided on the resin base material. This mold is a mold of a resin body including resin base material molding die parts for molding a resin base material. The mold includes: a sliding part capable of sliding inside a foamed resin part molding cavity that communicates with a resin base material molding cavity of the resin base material molding die parts. The sliding part is swingably floated in a direction perpendicular to a sliding surface on which the sliding part slides. In the process of molding the resin base material, the sliding part blocks an opening part that communicates from the resin base material molding cavity to the foamed resin part molding cavity.

An object of the present invention is to develop an NBR composition excellent in an adhesive strength with a saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer layer, and a laminate excellent in an adhesive strength of an NBR layer with a saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer layer; and the present invention relates to an acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber composition comprising an acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber and a silane-modified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer of 0 to 50 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber, and a laminate comprising an acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber layer comprising the composition and the saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer layer through an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer layer.

A floor element for forming a floor covering, wherein the floor element comprises a decorative layer, a support layer, and an intermediate layer disposed between the decorative layer and the support layer, wherein the decorative layer is made of a brittle material, wherein the floor element comprises edges provided with coupling elements adapted to cooperate with coupling elements of an adjacent similar floor element in said floor covering and wherein the intermediate layer comprises at least one edge that is offset relative to a respective edge of the decorative layer.

A method for dielectrically heating foamable composition to foam and set the composition is described. In particular, radio frequency (RF) heating is used to heat the foamable composition to provide insulation in the manufacture of an article.

The present invention relates to a double-sided adhesive tape used for applications including the attachment of front glass for mobile devices. A core layer of the double-sided adhesive tape is prepared by adding an acrylic elastomer free of carbon-carbon double bonds while being highly miscible with an acrylic resin to an acrylic monomer(s) and performing curing, and thus can improve the impact resistance of the final double-sided adhesive tape. Also, the core layer may take a form of foam due to the introduced filler such as glass bubbles or organic microspheres, and thus can further contribute to improving the impact resistance of the final double-sided adhesive tape.

A display device according to an embodiment includes a display panel and a protection layer that is disposed on the display panel, wherein the protection layer includes: a first protection layer; a metal layer that overlaps the first protection layer and includes a hole; and an adhesive layer disposed between the first protection layer and the metal layer. The adhesive layer includes a first area disposed between the first protection layer and the metal layer, and a second area and a third area that are disposed in the hole, wherein a peeling strength of the second area and a peeling strength of the third area are different from each other.
