The present invention provides, for example, a laminated film for molding, which not only has a hard coating ability equal to or more than conventional one, but also is improved in shape followability of the entire laminated film. The laminated film for molding of the present invention includes at least a substrate film, a hard coating layer, and a functional layer in the listed order, in which the hard coating layer includes at least a resin and 1 to 50 parts by mass of an inorganic oxide particle based on 100 parts by mass of the entire resin component included in the hard coating layer.

A method for manufacturing a molded vehicle trim element including the following steps: (i) providing a carrier plate in a mold for injection molding including a mobile core of the mold and cavity of the mold to give the final shape of the vehicle trim element, (ii) providing a glass panel in the mold having at least a first region to be bent, (iii) cold bending the glass panel inside the mold in a requested shape, (iv) injecting a soft material to form the vehicle trim element made of bent carrier plate and glass panel fixed together via the molding material, and (v) removing the vehicle trim element from the mold.

A movable mold includes a main mold part, a separate mold part separate from the main mold part, and a relative movement mechanism moving the separate mold part relative to the main mold part in a driving direction of a mold driver.

A method of producing a laminated structure includes: a laminated structure that has high adhesion strength between resin layers and that is excellent in respect of working efficiency, the method including: a lamination step of preparing an intermediate laminate in which a first resin layer and a second resin layer are laminated with an adhesive resin layer interposed between the first resin layer and the second resin layer; a first molding step of molding the intermediate laminate; and a second molding step of forming a resin member on a surface of the molded intermediate laminate by injection molding using a raw material resin to obtain a laminated structure in which at least a part of the adhesive resin layer is thermally cured to be an adhesion layer. An adhesive resin composition constituting the adhesive resin layer contains at least an acrylic-based polymer, a crosslinking agent, and a thermal polymerization initiator.

A laminated body in which a thermoplastic resin layer, a thermosetting resin layer, and a protective film are layered one on another in this order, in which the thermosetting resin layer contains a thermosetting resin composition containing two or more kinds of organometallic complex, a surface of the protective film at an opposite side of the thermosetting resin layer has a surface roughness Ra of 30 nm or less, and an amount of nitrogen atoms present at the surface of the protective film at the side of the thermosetting resin layer is less than 1 atm %.

Prepared is a laminate including: a first layer formed of a first resin composition containing a first resin; and a second layer formed of a second resin composition containing a second resin, the first layer and the second layer being in contact with each other and integrated. The first resin includes an alicyclic polyamide resin having 20 mmol/kg or greater of amino groups, and the second resin includes an acid-modified (meth)acrylic resin. The second resin may have 100 mmol/kg or greater of carboxyl groups. The acid-modified (meth)acrylic resin may be an acid-modified polymethylmethacrylate resin. An average thickness of the first layer may be 0.15 times or more of an average thickness of the second layer. The average thickness of the first layer may be 200 μm or greater. When a weight is dropped onto the second layer side, the laminate may have a DuPont impact strength of 500 N/inch or greater. The laminate has excellent transparency, lightness, light resistance, and impact resistance.

A housing included in a home appliance and used as a decorative housing is shaped like an inverted tray and includes a wood layer, a non-woven cloth layer bonded to the wood layer via a bonding resin layer, and a substrate resin layer fixed to the wood layer while infiltrating gaps between fibers in the non-woven cloth layer. A predetermined cutout pattern is formed on a colored coating film applied to a front surface of the non-woven cloth layer.

A fender liner that is to be placed in a curved shape along a periphery of a tire of a vehicle includes: a first foam layer that is formed by a first foam body; and a mixed layer that includes a first non-woven fabric and a second foam body that is foamed inside the first non-woven fabric, wherein the first foam body forming the first foam layer is seamless with the second foam body included in the mixed layer.

Tooling for manufacturing a vehicle panel having a substrate, a foam layer, and a decorative covering. The tooling includes a tool base having a tool aperture, and an insert having a sealing projection. The insert is located at least partially in the tool aperture. The sealing projection is configured to create a seal between the substrate and the decorative covering at least partially around a substrate aperture in the substrate. The substrate aperture is at least partially smaller than the tool aperture so as to form an overlapping seal area between the sealing projection of insert and the substrate. A manufacturing method can create a foam-less region between the decorative covering and the substrate.
