Provided is a laminated substrate wherein a sheet-shaped material with a porosity of 50-99% is laminated onto at least one surface of a prepreg substrate which includes a reinforcing fiber and a thermoplastic resin.

A thermally insulating sheet formed by a down core structure which is comprised solely of down feather material mixed with binding material which is heat fused together to form a homogeneous sheet core. The method of fabricating the homogeneous thermally insulating sheet to form the down core structure is described. This novel method restrains the down clusters and binding material during the process of mixing, depositing, conveying and heat fusing to form a homogeneous down core sheet. The down core structure is subjected to two separate heat treatments which produces a down core sheet having at least some of its outer surfaces being of higher bond density than the inside of the core.

Provided are a foldable back plate film and a method of manufacturing the same.

A biofabricated material containing a network of crosslinked collagen fibrils is disclosed. This material is composed of collagen which is also a major component of natural leather and is produced by a process of fibrillation of collagen molecules into fibrils, crosslinking the fibrils and lubricating the crosslinked fibrils. Unlike natural leathers, this biofabricated material exhibits non-anisotropic (not directionally dependent) physical properties, for example, a sheet of biofabricated material can have substantially the same elasticity or tensile strength when stretched or stressed in different directions. Unlike natural leather, it has a uniform texture that facilitates uniform uptake of dyes and coatings. Aesthetically, it produces a uniform and consistent grain for ease of manufacturability. It can have substantially identical grain, texture and other aesthetic properties on both sides distinct from natural leather where the grain increases from one side (e.g., distal surface) to the other (proximal inner layers).

To provide a resin composition, wherein the resin composition is excellent in impregnation into a reinforcing fiber sheet as it contains a polyamide having a low viscosity number; wherein the resin composition can be molded into a film, a fiber, etc., even though it contains a polyamide having a low viscosity number; and wherein the resin composition can produce a fiber-reinforced molded product having excellent impact resistance; a molded product and a method for its production; and a fiber-reinforced molded product having excellent impact resistance and a method for its production. A resin composition comprising: a polyamide having a viscosity number of from 100 to 170 determined by a method specified in ISO 307: 2007; and a melt-processable fluororesin having at least one type of a functional group selected from the group consisting of a carbonyl group-containing group, a hydroxy group, an epoxy group and an isocyanate group, and having a melting point of from 100 to 325° C.

A prepreg sheet includes a plurality of prepreg tapes each of which overlaps with a corresponding adjacent prepreg tape for a suitable overlapping length. The plurality of prepreg tapes each contain a reinforcing fiber bundle that is impregnated with a thermosetting resin composition. According to a method for manufacturing a preform, for example, a primary premolded article is manufactured by preforming an intermediate base material containing a reinforcing fiber base material and a matrix resin composition, and a secondary premolded article is manufactured by preforming the primary premolded article on which the intermediate base material is further placed.

Provided is a laminated substrate wherein a sheet-shaped material with a porosity of 50-99% is laminated onto at least one surface of a prepreg substrate which includes a reinforcing fiber and a thermoplastic resin.

A window glass is disclosed. The window glass is divided into a transparent area and an opaque area formed to surround at least part of the transparent area. The window glass includes a transparent layer and an opaque layer that forms the opaque area by being stacked on a partial area of the transparent layer to correspond to the opaque area. The transparent layer includes a protective glass that forms a first surface of the window glass, a first transparent layer formed of a material that is hardened by irradiation of UV light, the first transparent layer including a pattern portion having a pattern formed on an area corresponding to the opaque area, and a second transparent layer formed of an optically isotropic material and formed between the protective glass and the first transparent layer. The opaque layer is formed on the pattern portion, and part of the first transparent layer and the opaque layer form a second surface of the window glass.

In a touch sensor in which a touch sensor body is attached to a cover member, the cover member includes: a first member made of a glass plate and having a first surface and a second surface that is an opposite surface of the first member from the first surface; and a resin film made of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) and formed on the second surface. The resin film is located between the first member and the touch sensor body.
