The present invention aims to provide an interlayer film for an automotive windshield which, while having recesses in the shape of engraved lines, enables the production of automotive windshields with high yield by a vacuum deaeration method; a roll of the interlayer film for an automotive windshield; and an automotive windshield including the interlayer film for an automotive windshield. The present invention relates to an interlayer film for an automotive windshield. The interlayer film includes, on at least one surface thereof, a large number of recesses and a large number of projections. The recesses have a groove shape with a continuous bottom. The recesses are adjacently arranged regularly side by side in parallel with one another. The recesses in a groove shape with a continuous bottom are inclined 35? or more relative to the machine direction of the film in production of the interlayer film for an automotive windshield.

Disclosed are a multilayer coating film made from a natural material and a method of producing the same. The multilayer coating film may be produced by forming a multilayer coating film through formation of a color coating film for providing adhesion and color to a cork on the cork material and a clear coating film for realizing texture and supplementing properties on the color coating film. As such, the multilayer coating film may be made from a natural material to diversify the color and gloss of cork as a natural material, to additionally increase marketability of an interior material and provide various appearance, to prevent discoloration due to light (e.g. UV light.) and water permeation, and to enhance durability against abrasion, scratches and the like.

The present invention provides a functional film having an optical functional layer that exhibits an optical function and is capable of suppressing deterioration of the optical functional layer, and a method thereof. The functional film includes an optical functional layer, a resin layer which surrounds end surfaces of the optical functional layer, and gas barrier supports between which the optical functional layer and the resin layer are sandwiched, in which an oxygen permeability of the resin layer is 10 cc/(m.sup.2.Math.day.Math.atm) or less, and a difference between a thickness of the optical functional layer and the resin layer is within 30%; and a production method including forming a frame-shaped resin layer on a surface of a first gas barrier support, filling the inside of the frame with a polymerizable composition which becomes an optical functional layer, laminating a second gas barrier support on the resin layer, and curing the polymerizable composition.

A reusable, non-adhesive protective cover is disclosed which includes a first layer having an exterior surface designed to contact a structure or object during use and a second layer having an exterior surface designed to be spaced away from the structure or object. Each of the first and second layers are formed from a thermoplastic film and are joined together to form a laminate which is free of polyvinyl chloride. Each of the first and second layers contains at least about 5% of a flame retardant. The first layer has a static coefficient of friction of at least about 0.5. The second layer exhibits attachment and release capabilities such that a joint tape can be used to join adjacent sheets of the reusable, non-adhesive protective cover together and the joint tape can be removed without damaging the reusable, non-adhesive protective cover.

Anti-condensation compositions and laminates comprising a cellulosic material selected from a cellulose ester and a cellulose ether and a polymer of an oxazoline, and processes for making such anti-condensation compositions without the need for saponification. Such compositions have now been shown to exhibit extremely desirable anti-condensation characteristics, with a low degree of hazing and increased hardness.

Disclosed are multilayer films which can provide desired film performance suited for packaging applications favoring cost-effectiveness.

A laminate sheet includes at least one base layer including a first thermoplastic resin; and at least one metallic resin layer disposed on one side or both sides of the base layer and including a second thermoplastic resin and a metal-resin composite particles, wherein the first thermoplastic resin and the second thermoplastic resin are the same or different from each other, the metal-resin composite particles includes a metal deposition layer, a first coating layer positioned on one side of the metal deposition layer, and a second coating layer positioned on the other side of the metal deposition layer, and each of the first coating layer and the second coating layer includes a thermosetting resin. A method of manufacturing the laminate sheet, an article using the laminate sheet and a method of manufacturing the article are also provided.

Disclosed are a resin composition for coating a plastic glazing to provide superior scratch resistance and weather resistance and satisfactory compatibility with polycarbonate glass, and a plastic glazing coated with the same. In particular, the resin composition may be suitable for a glazing, for example, a panorama sunroof of a vehicle and the like. In addition, disclosed is a method of economically manufacturing the plastic glazing and the method comprises integrally molding a substrate comprising the resin composition of the present invention, polycarbonate and the like through double injection or double extrusion.

The present invention relates to a method for the production of a coated paper, paperboard or film, wherein the method comprises the steps of; providing a first suspension comprising cellulose fibers and/or nanocellulose, applying the first suspension on a substrate to form a fibrous web, wherein the web has a first and a second side, providing a second suspension comprising polymers and/or particles wherein the second suspension has a Brookfield viscosity above 3000 m Pas at a dry content between 4%-40% by weight, providing at least one calender comprising at least one roll or belt, applying the second suspension to the surface of the at least one calender roll or belt forming a coating web and conducting said fibrous web through the at least one calender whereby the coating web is applied to the first side of the web forming the coated paper, paperboard or film. The invention also relates to a paper, paperboard or film produced according to the method.
