According to exemplary inventive practice, a personal armor system includes a textile-based layer not exceeding ½-half-inch thickness, and an elastomeric coating not exceeding ⅛-inch thickness. The textile-based layer includes a fiber reinforcement and a resin binder. The combined areal density of the textile-based layer and the elastomeric coating does not exceed 2.5 psf. According to a first mode of inventive practice, the elastomeric coating is essentially a strain-rate-sensitivity-hardening elastomer, and the areal density of the textile-based layer does not exceed 2.3 psf. According to a second mode of inventive practice, the elastomeric coating is essentially a microparticle-filled strain-rate-sensitivity-hardening elastomeric matrix material, and the areal density of the textile-based layer does not exceed 1.7 psf. The microparticles (e.g., spherical glass microparticles) do not exceed, by weight, 30 percent of the strain-rate-sensitivity-hardening elastomeric matrix material. The textile-based layer affords ballistic protection; the elastomeric coating affords protection against sharp/pointed objects.

A composite cooling film includes a reflective microporous layer that comprises a continous phase comprising an organic polymer, an ultraviolet-absorbing layer of organic polymeric material that is disposed outwardly of the reflective microporous layer, and an anti soiling layer being disposed outwardly of the reflective microporous layer.

A laminate tube container is made of laminate film or sheet comprising of a vapor metalizing polyethylene film with a vapor evaporated side made of a metal, metal-oxide or inorganic substance, which is adhesive-laminated on the evaporate side with polyethylene film and an adhesive agent then laminated with other extrusion layers of polyethylene, tie and copolymer of ethylene and vinyl alcohol. The laminated tube giving both oxygen and water vapor barrier characteristics making them suitable for packaging tube particularly filled with contents, such as liquid or creamy cosmetic products and toothpastes.

A surface covering is provided and includes an upper section of laminated polymeric layers and an acoustical section for dissipating sound waves.

An acrylic multilayer foil includes a layer A in which silica particles are uniformly distributed in an acrylic polymer matrix and a coating layer D. Due to adhesive promoting properties of the layer A containing silica particles, the coating layer D can be advantageously applied onto the layer A. The foil has a high weathering resistance and excellent mechanical properties. Therefore, the foil is highly suitable for surface-protection of materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and for use in high-pressure laminates (HPLs).

Disclosed herein are systems, apparatuses, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media related to a display construct coupled to a structure (e.g., a vision window). The structure can be a supportive structure such as a fixture. The display construct is configured to facilitate media display and is at least partially transparent. The vision window may be a tintable window, e.g., a window in which its tint is electrically controllable (e.g., an electrochromic window). Various interactive capabilities with the display construct are disclosed (e.g., via a touch screen).

Disclosed is an electronic device. The electronic device according to an embodiment includes: a deformable display panel; a first window disposed on the deformable display panel; a first adhesive disposed between the deformable display panel and the first window; a second window disposed on the first window, the second window including a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, and a side surface disposed between the first surface and the second surface; a second adhesive disposed between the first window and the second window; and a shatterproof coating (SPC) provided on at least a part of the side surface of the second window and the first surface of the second window.
