A resealable package assembly is described. The package assembly includes a selectively positionable flap that covers an aperture or enables access through the aperture into the package. The flap and package include provisions for releasably engaging the flap to the package to seal the interior of the package. Provisions for grasping the tab and indicating whether tampering has occurred are also described.

A process for manufacturing a structural component made of composite material comprising a skin and at least one stiffening stringer applied rigidly and integrally to one face of the skin. The process comprises a) arranging, on a tool, a plurality of first layers of uncured or pre-cured composite material, forming the stringer and having a raised portion protruding from at least one flange; b) arranging, on said tool, a plurality of second layers of uncured or pre-cured composite material forming said skin; c) making a face of said skin and flange adhere to each other; d) applying predetermined temperature and pressure on the assembly, possibly curing the uncured material and rigidly joining said skin to said stringer; e) performing a cutting operation on the free end side edge/s of said flange; and f) cover said end side edge/s of the end of said flange with a coating of composite material.

A substrate 2 of an adhesive tape 1 includes a mesh structure made of thermoplastic resin. The mesh structure has a structure in which multiple first fibers drawn in a first direction corresponding to a length direction of the adhesive tape and multiple second fibers drawn in a second direction corresponding to a width direction of the adhesive tape are layered or woven. (a) A first fiber has a thickness of 0.04 mm or less, and a width of 0.6 mm or less, (b) a second fiber has a thickness greater than that of the first fiber, and a width greater than or equal to that of the first fiber, (c) the mesh structure has a tensile strength in the first direction of from 130 to 250 N/50 mm, (d) the mesh structure has a bending resistance in the first direction obtained by a cantilever test of from 40 to 80 mm, and (e) the mesh structure has a bending resistance in the second direction obtained by the cantilever test of from 65 to 95 mm.

A polyolefin-based resin film containing (a) 90 to 97 parts by weight of at least one polyolefin-based resin selected from a propylene-ethylene block copolymer and a propylene-α olefin random copolymer and (b) 3 to 10 parts by weight of an ethylene-propylene copolymer elastomer, wherein the propylene-α olefin random copolymer is present in an amount of 0 to 50% by weight relative to the total amount of the propylene-ethylene block copolymer and the propylene-α olefin random copolymer, and the polyolefin-based resin film has a thermal shrinkage ratio in a longitudinal direction of 3% or more and 20% or less, a thermal shrinkage ratio in a rectangular direction to a width direction of 1% or less, and a yield stress in the longitudinal direction of 150 MPa or more and 250 MPa or less.

A decorative molded part with a decorative sheet provided on the visible side and is connected to a substrate, and to a method of manufacturing the same. In the method, a plastic layer is arranged between the substrate and the decorative sheet. Edge sections of the decorative sheet projecting beyond the substrate on both sides are bent around the substrate together with the plastic layer for positive enclosure of the substrate within the decorative sheet.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a display substrate motherboard and a manufacturing method and a cutting method thereof, a display substrate and a display device. The display substrate motherboard includes a preset cutting position, a back film and an adhesive layer disposed on the back film, the adhesive layer includes: a first adhesive layer corresponding to the preset cutting position; a second adhesive layer disposed on two sides of the first adhesive layer in a direction parallel to the back film; and a first light blocking layer disposed between the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer, wherein the first light blocking layer is configured to reduce light entering the second adhesive layer through the first light blocking layer after being incident from the first adhesive layer.

A gas-sensing pigment incorporated in a thin film indicator or tape that changes color upon exposure to hydrogen or hydrogen sulfide. The gas-sensing pigment is compounded together with a silicone polymer to produce a self-fusing silicone tape having a tensile strength of at least 700 psi, a tear resistance of at least 85 psi, and ultimate elongation of at least 300%. The gas-sending pigment includes chemochromic metal oxide particles of a tungsten oxide or a molybdenum oxide, and a catalyst having platinum, palladium, rhodium, nickel, or silver. The catalyst coating is applied to each metal oxide particle as nanoparticles of less than 30 nanometers in diameter, and the microparticles of chemochromic metal oxide material are less than 200 microns or 100 microns in diameter.

A shingle coating asphalt composition is provided that is produced from a paving grade asphalt. The asphalt composition comprises a paving-grade asphalt that has been modified with one or more polymer additives; and a secondary additive comprising one or more of a viscosity reducing agent, a wax, a salt of a fatty acid ester, and an amide of a fatty acid. The shingle coating asphalt coating composition is used to make a shingle. The shingle includes a substrate, the asphalt, and roofing granules.

Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to a method of producing a rigid board plastic flooring. The method includes extruding a bottom layer without adding a plasticizer, overlapping sequentially a back embossment board, the bottom layer, a first connecting layer, a decoration layer, and a wear layer to form a sandwich, hot pressing the sandwich with temperature and pressure and applying a UV treatment to a top surface of the sandwich after hot pressing the sandwich. The method continues by annealing the sandwich after applying the UV treatment, cooling the sandwich to ambient temperature, and cutting the sandwich to size.
