A method for producing a laminated pane with a functional element with electrically switchable optical properties, includes creating a first stack of layers including a first pane, a first thermoplastic laminating film, a separating film, a second thermoplastic laminating film, a second pane, laminating the first stack of layers while being heated, taking the first pane with the first thermoplastic laminating film off the second pane with the second thermoplastic laminating film, and the at least one separating film is removed from the stack of layers, providing a functional element having an active layer, placing the functional element into the stack of layers, whereby a second stack of layers is formed, laminating the second stack of layers to form a laminated pane, wherein the separating film is detachable residue-free from the first thermoplastic laminating film and the second thermoplastic laminating film.

A floor panel for forming a floor covering comprises a substrate consisting of at least two substrate layers differing in density and, on at least one pair of opposite edges, is provided with coupling parts of the so-called push-lock type. Vertically active locking surfaces, where they cooperate in the coupled condition of two of such floor panels, define a tangent line which is horizontal or does not deviate more than 50 degrees from the horizontal. The locking surfaces are situated closer to the upper side of the first substrate layer than to the lower side of the first substrate layer.

A polyester film laminated with other polymers to form a sheet. A laminated tube for liquid and paste products such as toothpastes, and the like can be manufactured from said sheet. The laminate comprises an outer polyethylene film, adhesive agent layers, a polyester film, and a composite polyethylene film comprising at least one co-extruded polyethylene layer sandwiched by at least one polyethylene film and an inner polyethylene film.

A translucent or transparent composite flexible sheet includes at least one reinforcing layer comprising high tenacity yarns; and a fluorinated polymeric film which is translucent or transparent to visible light, which is integral with the reinforcing layer. The reinforcing layer is a textile with a light transmittance of more than 40%, and includes high tenacity yarns based on an aromatic block polyester with a Young's modulus of more than 50 GPa. The yarns have a sheath of material which blocks ultraviolet radiation.

A method is provided for manufacturing a panel that includes a substrate and a top layer provided on the substrate. The top layer may include a decor film and a transparent film. The decor film may be a printed synthetic material film chosen from the group consisting of a vinyl-based film, a polyethylene based film, a polyurethane based film, and a polypropylene film. A print may be situated on an upper side of the printed synthetic material film. The transparent film may be a thermoplastic synthetic material film the material of which is chosen from the group consisting of polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polyurethane, and polypropylene. The method may involve providing the decor film and the transparent film on the substrate by performing a first press treatment at an increased temperature to form a package of the substrate, the decor film, and the transparent film. The first press treatment may be performed by a calendar device or a continuous press device. A structure may be formed in the thermoplastic synthetic material that forms a surface of the package by performing a second press treatment using a press device with a structured press element at a temperature that is lower than the increased temperature.

A direct-to-consumer heat shrunk bundled product made up of a plurality of paper product rolls each individually packaged by a first package material and arranged relative to one another so as to form a bundle, the bundle being packaged by a second package material, wherein a substantial portion of the inner surface of the second package material is in contact with the first package material of the plurality of paper product rolls and is nonstick relative to the first package material. The bundle includes fused end seals so that the bundle does not include open gussets that might otherwise catch on machinery during sorting and shipping. The packaging material and/or wrapper may include laser energy absorbing material or adhesive.

Provided is a layered product that uses a high temperature-resistant transparent film having sufficient heat resistance, and that is capable of being mechanically released from an inorganic substrate after various processes are performed on the inorganic substrate since the adhesive strength between the high temperature-resistant transparent film and the inorganic substrate is appropriately weak, and that is less warped along with the inorganic substrate. In this layered product, no adhesive is used between the high temperature-resistant transparent film and the inorganic substrate, the release strength between the high temperature-resistant transparent film and the inorganic substrate is at most 0.3 N/cm, and the warpage amount of the layered product when heated at 300° C. is at most 400 .Math.m.

Provided is a biaxially oriented polypropylene film that can enhance function of having high stiffness, having excellent heat resistance at a high temperature of 150° C., easily maintaining a bag shape when being made into a packaging bag, having less pitch shift during printing or fewer wrinkles in a sealed portion when being heat-sealed, and improving lamination strength. A biaxially oriented polypropylene film comprising a base layer (A), an intermediate layer (B), and a surface layer (C), wherein a stress at 5% elongation (F5) at 23° C. of the biaxially oriented polypropylene film is not lower than 40 MPa in a longitudinal direction and not lower than 160 MPa in a width direction, and a heat shrinkage rate at 150° C. of the biaxially oriented polypropylene film is not higher than 10% in the longitudinal direction and not higher than 30% in the width direction.

A polymeric film assembly comprising a first solidified interlayer on a polymeric film or laminate comprising the same that is contacted with at least a portion of a surface of an underlying article to provide, for example, desired surface characteristics. At least a portion of the first solidified interlayer becomes a softened interlayer positioned between the polymeric film and the surface of the article when contacted as such. The softened interlayer is then converted to a second solidified interlayer, which second solidified interlayer may be in a different form than or same form as the first solidified interlayer initially provided, for adherence of the polymeric film to at least the portion of the surface of the article. Ease of removal and/or repair of polymeric film and laminates comprising the polymeric film that are so applied is facilitated.
