Provided is a method for manufacturing a laminated film that can be molded into a complicated shape. A method for manufacturing a laminated film comprising: a step of forming an uncured hard coat layer by applying an active energy-ray curable composition for forming a hard coat layer to one side of a first support substrate having a thickness of 50 μm or more and 600 μm or less, and then drying the composition; a step of forming an uncured optical interference layer by applying an active energy-ray curable composition for forming a optical interference layer on one surface of a second support substrate so that the thickness of the uncured optical interference layer is between 15 nm or more and 200 nm or less, and then drying the composition; and a lamination step of laminating a surface of the uncured hard coat layer opposite the first support substrate and a surface of the uncured optical interference layer opposite the second support substrate to obtain a laminated film, wherein a stretch ratio of the laminated film at 160° C. is 50% or more.

Methods of rapidly debonding encapsulant in solar modules and disassembling the modules for reuse or recycling of components. Electromagnetic radiation is applied to a solar module in a temperature and humidity-controlled environment to debond the encapsulant layers. Peel blocks are used to separate the front layer and back sheet of the module from the solar cells. The components are then sorted for reuse or recycling of valuable materials. The embodiments described also include a system of performing the methods that can be arranged in one or more shipping containers to be delivered to a solar module decommissioning site.

A thermal transfer apparatus includes a controller to control a transfer tool and a pressing body conveyor. The controller controls the pressing body conveyor to press a predetermined region of a transfer object, and controls the transfer tool and the pressing body conveyor to press at least a portion of thermal transfer foil placed on the predetermined region pressed by the transfer tool and a light absorption film having a light absorption property and placed on the thermal transfer foil and to apply light to the light absorption film.

A multiple layer hollow cylinder is provided. An inner air-tight material is wrapped about at least a portion of a mandrel to form a plurality of first material loops. Each first material loop subsequent to an initial first material loop at least partially overlaps a previous first material loop. A resin-infused fabric material is wrapped over the inner air-tight material to form a plurality of second material loops. Each second material loop subsequent to an initial second material loop at least partially overlaps a previous second material loop. An outer air-tight transparent material is wrapped over the resin-infused fabric material to form a plurality of third material loops. Each third material loop subsequent to an initial third material loop at least partially overlaps a previous third material loop. Energy is directed about the outer air-tight transparent material to cure the resin-infused fabric material to form a hollow cylinder.

A method includes positioning a discrete component assembly on a support fixture of a component transfer system, the discrete component assembly including a dynamic release tape including a flexible support layer, and a dynamic release structure disposed on the flexible support layer, and a discrete component adhered to the dynamic release tape. The method includes irradiating the dynamic release structure to release the discrete component from the dynamic release tape.

A panel assembly is formed by a plurality of bonds between two sheet materials in a face to face relationship to form a preform. The plurality of bonds define a closed perimeter region between the two sheet materials and an open perimeter region between the two sheet materials. The preform may be formed into a predefined shape. Pressurized fluid is applied through an inlet into the open perimeter region to expand the preform. The pressurized fluid expands the open perimeter region such that the two sheet materials expand in an opposing direction, thereby defining an expanded open perimeter region. The closed perimeter region between the two sheet materials remains vacant of the pressurized fluid such that the closed perimeter region is not expanded. The expanded open perimeter region is filled with a filler material for improving a performance characteristic of the panel assembly, e.g., strength, sound absorption, or stiffness.

A pavement repair system is provided utilizing solid phase auto regenerative cohesion and homogenization by liquid asphalt oligopolymerization technologies. The system is suitable for use in repairing asphalt pavement, including pavement exhibiting a high degree of deterioration (as manifested in the presence of potholes, cracks, ruts, or the like) as well as pavement that has been subject to previous repair and may comprise a substantial amount of dirt and other debris (e.g., chipped road paint or other damaged or disturbed surfacing materials). A system utilizing homogenization by liquid asphalt oligopolymerization is suitable for rejuvenating or repairing aged asphalt, thereby improving properties of the paving material.
