The present disclosure relates to ornamental indicia carrier and method of producing the same. In some embodiments, the ornamental indicia carrier comprises an ultraviolet light (“UV”) cured ink printed on a thin flexible film and combined with an adhesive layer. The ornamental indicia carrier is capable of enduring the conditions inside the mouth for an extended period of time and can be used in conjunction with a dental appliance.

There are provided a decorative sheet having excellent fingerprint resistance of the surface of the decorative sheet, a decorative board, a method for manufacturing a transfer master plate, and a method for manufacturing a decorative sheet. The decorative sheet includes: a base material layer; a colored pattern layer provided on one surface of the base material layer; and a first surface protective layer provided on the surface on the side opposite to the base material layer of the colored pattern layer and having irregular shapes on the surface. The decorative sheet is formed using a transfer master plate which is a resin material having irregular shapes for master plate on the surface formed by irradiating the surface of an applied ionizing radiation curable resin with a first ionizing radiation having energy capable of cleaving a polymer chain of the ionizing radiation curable to shrink the surface of the ionizing radiation curable resin, forming the irregular shapes for master plate on the surface of the ionizing radiation curable resin, irradiating the shrunk ionizing radiation curable resin with a second ionizing radiation curing the ionizing radiation curable resin to cure the ionizing radiation curable resin.

A biaxially stretched polyester film and a method for producing the same are provided. The biaxially stretched polyester film includes a polyester resin base layer and a matte layer. The polyester resin base layer includes: (1) 50 to 95 wt % of a polyester resin base material, and an intrinsic viscosity of the polyester resin base material being between 0.5 and 0.8 dL/g; and (2) 0.01 to 5 wt % of a high viscosity polyester resin material, and an intrinsic viscosity of the high viscosity polyester resin material being between 0.9 and 1.1 dL/g. The matte layer includes: (1) 50 to 95 wt % of a polyester resin matrix material, and an intrinsic viscosity of the polyester resin matrix material being between 0.5 and 0.8 dL/g; and (2) 0.3 to 40 wt % of a plurality of filler particles, and the filler particles having an average particle size of between 0.15 μm and 10 μm.

A biodegradable display protector comprises a top layer; an antimicrobial (AF) layer beneath the top layer; a core layer formed of biodegradable material beneath the AF layer; an adhesive layer beneath the core layer; and a bottom release layer beneath the adhesive layer. The bottom release layer may be peeled off to allow the screen protector to be adhered to a display screen. In the embodiments, biodegradable polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) may be used for an inflexible protector whereas biodegradable thermoplastic urethane (TPU) may be used for a flexible protector. A thickness of the screen protector may be between about 0.08 mm to about 0.23 mm.

A security device includes an array of lenses and a plurality of first and second segments disposed under the array of lenses. At a first viewing angle, the array of lenses presents a first image for viewing without presenting the second image for viewing, and at a second viewing angle different from the first viewing angle, the array of lenses presents for viewing the second image without presenting the first image for viewing. At least one first or second segment can include one or more microstructures or one or more nanostructures configured to produce one or more colors for the first or second image.

A biaxially-oriented polyethylene (BOPE) multilayer film comprises a skin layer with a matte surface and a core, the skin layer with a matte surface comprising, in weight percent (wt %) based upon the weight of the skin layer: (1) from 20 to 80 wt % of an ethylene-based polymer, and (2) from 80 to 20 wt % of a propylene-based polymer; each of the ethylene-based polymer and the propylene-based polymer having a storage modulus, with a difference between the storage modulus of the ethylene-based polymer and the propylene-based polymer of greater than 40 megaPascals (MPa) at 110° C., and greater than 18 MPa at 120° C.

A multilayer film including a first outer layer containing 70 to 30% by mass of a propylene homopolymer (A) and 30 to 70% by mass of a propylene/ethylene random copolymer (B) having an ethylene content of 5% by mass or less, an inner layer containing a propylene/ethylene block copolymer (C) and an ethylene/propylene copolymer elastomer (D), and a second outer layer containing 70 to 30% by mass of the propylene homopolymer (A) and 30 to 70% by mass of the propylene/ethylene random copolymer (B) having an ethylene content of 5% by mass or less, in that order.

To provide a vinylidene-fluoride resin film having low cloudiness and good visibility of a pattern and the like of a decorative film of a lower layer although having a matte tone with low glossiness. The vinylidene-fluoride resin film comprises crosslinked acrylic acid ester resin particles, in which the crosslinked acrylic acid ester resin particles have an average particle diameter of 5% or more and 40% or less to the thickness of the vinylidene-fluoride resin film and the arithmetic average surface roughness (Ra) of the vinylidene-fluoride resin film is 0.4 μm or more and less than 2 μm.

Film stacks are described. In particular, film stacks including a base overlaminate film layer and a removeable skin layer disposed on the base overlaminate film layer are described. Because the removable skin layer develops haze before the point of irreversibly damaging the base overlaminate layer, the film stack can prevent unintentional overstretching when the film stack is stretched together.

A cover panel, for at least partially transparently covering at least one display instrument in a vehicle, has a microstructure applied on at least one surface. The microstructure is suitable for scattering visible light which is incident on the cover panel. The at least one window region of the cover panel is cutout from the microstructure. A method for manufacturing such a cover panel uses a molding tool with an applied microstructure matrix for forming a microstructure on a part of the molding tool which is assigned to a surface of a molded cover panel. The parts of the molding tool which are assigned to window regions are cut out from the microstructure matrix.
