A printed composite including a substrate layer having an upper substrate surface for printing; an ink layer having an upper ink surface and an opposed lower ink surface, the lower ink surface being disposed on the upper substrate surface; and a protective layer covering the upper ink surface is disclosed. During use, the protective layer prevents the ink layer from being damaged, such as removal or discoloration, as could otherwise happen by exposure to sunscreen location. A method for preparing the printed composite is also provided.

Aspects are directed to a textile substrate with two or more ink layers and methods for printing a textile substrate. The two or more ink layers may include one or more visual components that form graphics or images that are visible to an observer when viewing the textile substrate from different angles.

This application provides a plate, a method for manufacturing same, and an electronic device. The method includes: forming a resin layer on a surface of a matrix, where the matrix is formed from organic matter, and a material forming the resin layer is different from a material forming the matrix; immersing the matrix in a first solution, the first solution containing a dye; and lifting the matrix formed with the resin layer out of the solution, where a height by which the matrix is lifted out of the solution per minute is not greater than 180 mm.

Methods for manufacturing articles, including articles of footwear, apparel, and sporting equipment are provided. The methods comprise decorating a plurality of foam particles. The decorating can comprise applying a coating on the foam particles, or embossing or debossing the foam particles, or both. The decorating can comprise applying a coating on the foam particles by printing, painting, dyeing, applying a film, or any combination thereof. The plurality of foam particles are affixed utilizing aspects of additive manufacturing methods. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present disclosure.

The present invention relates to a decorative material having excellent printability, and the decorative material according to the present invention has an ink-receiving layer having a radially fine sloping structure having a dendritic shape, whereby the absorbing and/or fixing property, i.e., printability, of the ink printed on the ink-receiving layer is improved, and clarity is excellent, so that aesthetic effects are excellent. In addition, since the ink-receiving layer is manufactured through UV curing, it can be directly coated on a substrate layer, and can include various kinds of substrate layers; and since it is manufactured using a solvent-free type resin composition without using an organic solvent, and has an excellent absorbing and/or fixing property with respect to a water soluble ink, it has environmental friendly advantages.

An overlay for an appliance control panel having an outer panel with relevant indicia printed onto a back surface and a contrasting backing film applied to the back surface of the outer panel over the printed relevant indicia. The relevant indicia is printed in reverse to provide a proper display when the overlay is attached to an appliance control panel. The method for producing this durable user interface panel for an appliance having a digital control panel is also disclosed.
