An ultra violet stable polyester membrane with a polyacrylic coating on one side and a coated pressure sensitive adhesive coating on its other side capable of allowing water vapor to pass through it. The pressure sensitive adhesive is formed of a copolymer comprising a backbone of n-butyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, and vinyl acetate which is mixed with at least one surfactant and emulsified to produce air bubbles which form pores when the copolymer is set with about 80% to about 90% of the pore sizes ranging from about 200 microns to about 300 microns and being uniformly distributed to form a flow path through the pressure sensitive adhesive.

The air and water barrier article includes a polymer-coated inelastic porous layer including a water-vapor permeable polymeric coating disposed on at least one major surface of the inelastic porous layer and an adhesive disposed on a major surface of the polymer-coated inelastic porous layer. The inelastic porous layer can include at least one of surface-modified fibers or natural cellulose fibers. The polymer-coated inelastic porous layer can at least one of a water strike through time of not more than 180 seconds or an absorbance capacity of at least one-half gram per 116 square centimeters. The adhesive may be exposed, in contact with a release surface, or adhered to a surface of a building component. A method of applying the air and water barrier article to a surface of a building component is also disclosed.

A multilayer particle shield for a spacecraft includes an inboard exterior layer configured to be disposed proximal to the spacecraft, an outboard exterior layer configured to be disposed distal from the spacecraft and at least one interior layer disposed between the inboard exterior layer and the outboard exterior layer, wherein the interior layer includes a semi-rigid, porous, compressible spacer.

A method of forming a sandwich structure including at least partially filling an open volume of an open cellular core with a sacrificial mold material, consolidating the sacrificial mold material to form a sacrificial mold, laying up a composite facesheet on each of at least two surfaces of the open cellular core, co-curing the composite facesheets by applying a consolidation temperature and a compaction pressure to the composite facesheets to form the sandwich structure, and removing the sacrificial mold. The compaction pressure is greater than a compressive strength of the open cellular core and less than a combined compressive strength of the open cellular core and the sacrificial mold.

A foam board article for installation against a base surface comprises a rigid foam layer including (a) a panel having an underside surface and a topside surface opposite the underside surface; and (b) a plurality of underside protrusions projecting from the underside surface for supporting the panel in spaced apart relation from the base surface to provide an air gap therebetween.

A display device includes a display panel having a display area and a non-display area surrounding the display area, and a decorative film disposed on the display panel. The decorative film includes a porous layer disposed on the display panel and including a plurality of pores, and a decorative layer which overlaps the non-display area and is disposed in the porous layer. Accordingly, the decorative layer which is partially disposed is formed in the porous layer so that a step caused by the decorative layer is not formed or minimized to reduce the thickness of the decorative film. As a result, the design the display device can be slim, and a flexible display device with an excellent folding reliability can be provided based on the display device.

A display device includes a flexible module including a display panel displaying an image, a first adhesive film disposed on one surface of the flexible module, first and second support plates disposed on the first adhesive film, opposed to the flexible module, and spaced apart from each other, a first adhesive protection layer and a first anti-adhesive layer disposed between the first support plate and the first adhesive film and facing each other, and a second adhesive protection layer and a second anti-adhesive layer disposed between the second support plate and the first adhesive film and facing each other, where a first bonding force between the first anti-adhesive layer and the first support plate and a second bonding force between the first adhesive protection layer and the first adhesive film are larger than a third bonding force between the first adhesive protection layer and the first anti-adhesive layer.

A sound-absorbing material includes a resin film; a first substrate layer having communication holes; and a second substrate layer having communication holes, in this order.

An integrated roofing product comprising a wood or cellulosic structural or roof sheathing base or core panel with a rigid foam insulation sheet or layer laminated or otherwise attached to the panel's inner face. Shingles and/or other protective material may then be attached to the panel's outer face. A plurality of parallel air channels extend vertically in the rigid foam insulation sheet or layer, providing a pathway for air to pass up and out of the eave space. Some or all of the air channels are disposed on the surface of the foam layer that is laminated or attached to the panel's inner face, so that part of the air channel is formed at the interface. A radiant barrier layer may be placed on the inner face of the rigid foam insulation sheet or layer, or between the foam insulation and the inner face of the roof sheathing base or core panel.

Stabilizing a fabric layer and simultaneously laminating a fabric to a bulky and cushioning backing layer using multiple internal adhesive layers placed within the fabric layer forms a composite textile. The melt index, weight and chemical compatibility of the adhesive layers versus the adjacent fabric sub-strata and the backing layer are adjusted to achieve the desired penetration of molten adhesive, mechanical bonding and chemical bonding. An optional external adhesive layer with a low melt index can be added between the fabric layer and the backing layer to facilitate attachment to a highly porous backing.
