This disclosure relates to a flexible metal laminate including a porous polyimide resin layer including 30 wt % to 95 wt % of a polyimide resin, and 5 wt % to 70 wt % of fluorine-containing resin particles, wherein micropores having a diameter of 0.05 μm to 20 μm are distributed in the porous polyimide resin layer, and a method for preparing the same.

The pressure sensitive adhesive tape is superior in moisture resistance because of its high peel strength and is easy to peel from an adherend by including a filler in the adhesive layers.

A safety surface material for a playground facility employing a monolithically mixed and trowelable thermoplastic olefin urethane cushion base course layer—which, for water park/spray park use is overlain by a thermoplastic rubber wear top course layer that is both light stable and chlorine resistant.

Provided is a laminate comprising a fluoroelastomer layer and a polymer layer, wherein the fluoroelastomer layer is formed of a fluoroelastomer composition containing a fluoroelastomer, a basic polyfunctional compound, and a polytetrafluoroethylene, and the polytetrafluoroethylene is dispersed in a state of single particles in the fluoroelastomer layer.

Disclosed are compositions, methods and uses for thin multi-layered films that may include a metallizable skin layer that include polyethylene polymer(s), wherein the metallizable skin layer may be treated one or more times. The multi-layered films include a core layer and a sealant layer, wherein each of these layers includes metallocene-catalyzed, linear, low-density polyethylene. The core layer is located between the metallizable skin layer and the sealant layer. These films may include one or more additives in any of the layers and/or include one or more tie layers. The multi-layered films may be biaxially oriented, have a haze equal to or below 5%, and have an elastic modulus equal to or below 350 N/mm.sup.2. The multi-layered films may also include a metallized layer on the metallizable skin layer, a coated layer on the metallizable skin layer, and/or be laminated to a polyethylene-based polymer, such as polyethylene terephthalate.

A thermosetting resin composition and a prepreg and a laminated board prepared therefrom. The thermosetting resin composition contains the following components in parts by weight: 50-150 parts of a cyanate; 30-100 parts of an epoxy resin; 5-70 parts of styrene-maleic anhydride; 20-100 parts of a polyphenyl ether; 30-100 parts of a halogen-free flame retardant; 0.05-5 parts of a curing accelerator; and 50-200 parts of a filler. The prepreg and laminated board prepared from the thermosetting resin composition have comprehensive performances such as a low dielectric constant, a low dielectric loss, an excellent flame retardance, heat resistance and moisture resistance, etc., and are suitable for use in a halogen-free high-frequency multilayer circuit board.

A greenhouse screen comprising strips of film material that are interconnected by a yarn system of transverse threads and longitudinal threads by means of knitting, warp-knitting or weaving process to form a continuous product is disclosed. At least some of the strips comprise a film material in the form of a single- or multilayer polyester film wherein the film contains at least 1.0 wt.-% SiO.sub.2 and a maximum of 2.5 wt.-% SiO.sub.2, and has a spreading factor of at least 2 and not more than 8. The greenhouse screen as disclosed herein has a reduced flammability and light scattering properties particularly suited for greenhouse applications.

An apparel system for applying topical treatments includes an article of apparel configured to cover and interface with a skin surface of a human body, the article of apparel including an oleophobic and moisture wicking layer. A method for applying a topical treatment is also disclosed.

Described is a method of making a densified fiber batt that includes the steps of: a) providing a fiber batt with a first plurality of fibers having a first melting point and a second plurality of fibers having a second melting point different from the first melting point; and b) subjecting the fiber batt to heat and pressure in a static press, thereby forming a densified fiber batt having a first surface and an opposed second surface.

Fiber-reinforced coated mats and fiber-reinforced coated mat-faced panels are provided herein, along with methods for making the same. Fiber-reinforced coated mats include a mat with a fiber-reinforced coating on one surface. Fiber-reinforced coated mat-faced panels include a fiber-coated mat and a panel material in contact with a surface of the mat opposite the fiber-reinforced coating. Methods include applying a fiber-reinforced coating to a surface of a mat to form a coated mat and drying the coated mat to cure the fiber-reinforced coating. Some methods also include combining the mat with a panel material to form a mat-faced panel.
