A composite panel structure has opposing outer walls or surfaces and a core comprising a plurality of ribs extending between and connected to the outer walls and defining chambers which are filled with expanding foams, non-expanding foams, gases, or a combination thereof. The outer panel surfaces and internal chamber walls or ribs are made of woven or non-woven fibrous material impregnated with one or more resins. The panel structure may be used for making a variety of products including sports equipment such as sports paddles, surfboards, kite boards, skateboards, wakeboards, as well as construction panels for walls, ceilings or floors, display panels, panels for the vehicle industry, furniture, and other structures requiring high strength to weight properties.

A display device includes a panel, a backlight, and an adhesive tape. The backlight is placed under the panel. The adhesive tape has a light blocking property and is bonded to an end face of the panel and the backlight.

A display board has a foam core with elastomeric properties with a first display layer affixed on one side and optionally a second display layer affixed on a second side. The elastic foam core can have a closed cell structure and be made from a thermoplastic. The display layers can be heat welded directly to the respective sides of the core with or without additional use of adhesive or the layers can be attached via adhesive only and not heat. The foam core has a Shore 00 hardness of 20-100.

In an aspect, a cap liner comprises a sintered fluoropolymer layer; and a backing layer; wherein the sintered fluoropolymer layer is in direct physical contact with the backing layer with no intervening layer located there between. In another aspect, a method of forming the cap liner of comprises plasma etching the sintered fluoropolymer layer to form a sintered plasma etched layer; and laminating the sintered plasma etched layer and the backing layer to form the cap liner.

A radio wave reflection reducing sheet provided with a laminate having a first primary surface and a second primary surface is disclosed. The laminate has: a first resin foam layer having a thickness from 0.05 to 3.00 mm and a density from 0.10 to 0.85 g/cm.sup.3, and a second resin foam layer having a thickness from 0.05 to 3.00 mm and a density from 0.20 to 0.90 g/cm.sup.3. The density of the second resin foam layer is greater than the density of the first resin foam layer. The first resin foam layer and the second resin foam layer are disposed in this order from the first primary surface side.

The present disclosure provides an article. The article includes a crosslinked foam composition, an adhesive layer, and a substrate composed of an olefin-based polymer. The crosslinked foam composition includes an ethylene/a-olefin multi-block copolymer, an ethylene/propylene/diene terpolymer (EPDM), optional silicone rubber, optional blend component selected from ethylene/aolefin random copolymer, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), styrene-butadiene block copolymer, hydrogenated styrene-butadiene block copolymer, and combinations thereof, optional plasticizer, optional filler, and optional additive.

The invention relates to a floor or wall panel and to a method of producing such panel. The panel comprise at least one core layer comprising at least one composite material, said composite material comprising at least one mineral filler, and at least one thermoplastic binder, which are present in a preferred ratio and composition such that a relatively light weight and rigid panel is obtained.

Provided are a joining structure, a joining method, an exterior body for a wire harness, and a wire harness capable of firmly joining members having different physical properties while reducing the thickness of a joint part. The joining structure 10 joins a first member 1 made of a first resin and a second member 2 made of a second resin, wherein: the second resin has physical properties having a higher foaming ratio than the first resin; and a recessed joint part 3 is provided which reaches at least the inside of the first member 1 from the outer surface side of the second member in a state in which the first member 1 and the second member 2 are superimposed. Furthermore, a method for manufacturing the joining structure 10 comprises the steps of: superimposing a first member 1 made of a first resin and a second member 2 made of a second resin having physical properties having a higher foaming ratio than the first resin; and joining the first member 1 and the second member 2 by forming the recessed joint part 3 by pressing and hot-melting the second member 2 until the recessed joint part 3 reaches at least the inside of the first member 1 from the outer surface side of the second member 2.

The present invention relates to a pipe suitable for conveying fluids in HVACR applications, which pipe comprises an inner tube delimiting an inner space or passageway for a fluid, an insulating cover and an anti-corrosion layer.

The present invention relates to a foamed polypropylene composition comprising (A) from 60.0 to 95.0 wt % of a linear propylene homopolymer and (B) from 5.0 to 40.0 wt % of a low density polyethylene, based on the total weight of the polypropylene composition, wherein the polypropylene composition before foaming has a melt flow rate MFR.sub.2 of from 0.1 to 5.0 g/10 min, determined according to ISO 1133 at a load of 2.16 kg and a temperature of 230° C., and a F.sub.30 melt strength of from 0.1 to 2.0 cN, determined according to ISO 16790:2005, a sheet comprising said foamed polypropylene composition, an article comprising said sheet, a process for producing said sheet and the use of said foamed polypropylene composition or said sheet for producing an article.
