An expanded multilayer integral geogrid includes a plurality of oriented strands interconnected by partially oriented junctions having an array of openings therein that is produced from a coextruded or laminated multilayer polymer starting sheet. The integral geogrid has a multilayer construction, with at least one inner layer thereof having a structure that is expanded relative to at least one other layer of the multiple layers. By virtue of the expanded inner layer structure, the expanded multilayer integral geogrid provides for increased layer compressibility under load, resulting in enhanced material properties that provide performance benefits to use of the expanded multilayer integral geogrid in soil geosynthetic reinforcement, and economic benefits compared to a like integral geogrid without an expanded inner layer structure.

The invention relates to a multi-layered protective element (20) for a battery (1) with at least two battery cells (10), which are arranged next to one another, wherein the protective element (20) can be arranged between the battery cells (10), and wherein the protective element (20) has a compressible core layer (21). According to the invention, the core layer (21) predominantly comprises animal wool and the layer thickness of the core layer is 60 to 98% of the total thickness of the protective element. The invention also relates to a battery (1) and to the use of the protective element (20) for a battery (1).

The invention relates to a profile system, in particular an edge strip, having at least one strip core formed from at least one polymer material, the strip core having a front side and a rear side arranged opposite the front side, the polymer material of the strip core comprising at least 0.5 to 15 wt. %, preferably 1 to 10 wt. %, particularly preferably 1 to 5 wt. %, relative to the total weight, of fillers comprising cellulose, mica, glitter and mixtures thereof, with an average particle size of approximately 100 to 1,600 m, preferably 120 to 1,000 m, particularly preferably 150 to 500 m according to ISO 13320:2020-0, the polymer material of the strip core comprising at least 0.1 to 10 wt. %, preferably 0.1 to 5 wt. %, particularly preferably 0.1 to 2.5 wt. %, in relation to the total weight, of organic fillers and/or inorganic fillers.

Provided is a laminate and a hot melt-type adhesive label that suppress curling due to swelling while having a pulp-paper feel. The laminate includes a porous substrate layer and an adhesive resin receiving layer on one side of the porous substrate layer, and the adhesive resin receiving layer contains an amorphous resin.

Provided is a single material plastic push-through blister pack for food and pharmaceutical packaging and a method of making thereof. The blister package may be produced by thermoforming polymer films for the cavity and a cavitated polymer film made from the same class of polymer comparatively lower thickness for the substrate or lid. To facilitate the push through breaking, the polymer film used as the lidding film may be modified to a microcavitated film by creating micro-voids/cavities and micro-brittleness within the polymer matrix. These micro-voids/cavities, and/or embedded microcrystalline particles present in the polymer matrix of the lidding film, may create internal cracks in the film by application of a small external force, which may then result in rupturing of the lid film to dispense a product from the cavity of the blister pack.

A quantum-dot optical film comprising: a binder, wherein a plurality of quantum dots, a plurality of diffusing particles, and a plurality of clay fragments are dispersed in the binder, wherein each of the clay fragments is capable of being water-resistant and oxygen-resistant.

Described herein is a building panel comprising a body comprising a first fibrous material comprising inorganic fiber, a non-woven scrim coupled to the body; and wherein the non-woven scrim has a thickness ranging from about 8 mils to about 20 mils.

An electronic device is provided. The device comprises a singulated carrier portion, a substrate molded onto the singulated carrier portion, and conductive traces disposed on the substrate. The substrate comprises a polymer composition that includes a thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer, a mineral filler, wherein the polymer composition exhibits an in-plane thermal conductivity of about 1 W/m-K or more as determined in accordance with ASTM E1461-13.

This application discloses a heat-resistant protective member and a battery. The heat-resistant protective member includes a functional layer, and the functional layer includes a first resin and a filler dispersed in the first resin. In this way, the thermal shock when a battery cell is ignited and exploded can be resisted, and the structural integrity can still be maintained without being broken under the thermal shock, thereby providing effective heat insulation and protection for a battery pack.
