To provide a vehicle window structure in which a light emitting device can be disposed outside the laminated glass.

A vehicle window structure to be installed at an opening of a vehicle, which comprises a first glass plate and a light emitting device, wherein at least a part of the light emitting device is disposed in a space formed between the first glass plate, an adhesive bonding the first glass plate and a body flange of the vehicle, and an interior material of the vehicle.

A laminated glazing pane is described comprising first and second sheets of glazing material joined by an interlayer structure comprising at least one sheet of adhesive interlayer material. Each sheet of glazing material has respective first and second major surfaces and the laminated glazing is arranged such that the second major surface of the first sheet of glazing material faces the first major surface of the second sheet of glazing material. An illumination device is arranged relative to the first sheet of glazing material to emit light towards the second major surface of the first sheet of glazing material. The first and/or second major surface of the first sheet of glazing material has an array of dots thereon for diffusing light emitted by the illumination device that is transmitted through the first sheet of glazing material and out from the first major surface thereof.

A method of making a multi-layer product or seal is described. An adhesive layer is applied to a surface of a first layer. A patch material is applied to a surface of the adhesive layer, using a coating or spraying process, to define one or more patches. At least the first layer is cut to define pre-formed lines of separation defining one or more first portions. Each first portion is associated with a respective one of the one or more patches.

Provided is a method for producing a decorative material, including: a preparation step of preparing sheet printed matters each including a substrate and a picture layer on one surface of the substrate and a roll of a transparent resin film having a first surface and a second surface opposing to each other, the first surface having a pattern of protrusions and depressions, the second surface having a pattern of protrusions and depressions that is shallower than the pattern of protrusions and depressions on the first surface; an application step of winding off the transparent resin film from the roll of a transparent resin film and applying an adhesive to the second surface of the transparent resin film; and a bonding step of bonding the second surface of the transparent resin film and the picture layer of each of the sheet printed matters with the adhesive.

The invention relates to an area covering element including at least one sheet-like carrier core, at least one protective layer and a decorative layer arranged between the sheet-like carrier core and the at least one protective layer. The sheet-like carrier core consists in this case of a strong, load-bearing carrier material and has at least an upper side and an underside arranged opposite from the upper side and also at least a first and second side face, arranged opposite from one another and respectively joining the upper side and underside. The decorative layer is formed by a printed film, which is firmly connected to the carrier core, the printed film at least partially covering at least the upper side and the first and second side faces of the sheet-like carrier core and the protective layer covering the full surface area at least of the printed film connected to the carrier core.

The invention refers to a method to produce a packaging material comprising the steps of; treating at least one surface of a paperboard substrate with a binder and with a metal salt, printing at least a part of said treated surface with ink, and applying at least one polymer layer on said printed surface. The packaging material produced in accordance with the invention shows good printability and simultaneously good adhesion of the applied polymer layer.

The invention relates to a decorative surface covering element, in particular a floor panel, ceiling panel or wall panel. The invention also relates to a panel covering, such as a floor covering, ceiling covering or wall covering, including a plurality of panels. The invention further relates to a method of producing a decorative surface covering element.

Boards have a mineral content, including magnesiumoxychloride and/or magnesiumoxysulphate, and may be finished with a DPL laminate decorative layer.

A pattern layer formed on a sheet base material, a first surface protective layer formed on the pattern layer, and a second surface protective layer partially formed on the first surface protective layer. The first surface protective layer and the second surface protective layer each have a gloss different to each other. The sheet base material is a thin paper that has a T-type peeling strength of 130 gf/15 mm or more and 210 gf/15 mm or less and an air permeability in accordance with JIS P 8117 of 150 seconds or more.

A self-supporting film (10) comprises a gas barrier layer (20); a semi-permeable layer (40); and an indicator material (30), preferably a colorimetric indicator material, is provided between the gas barrier layer (20) and the semi-permeable layer (40). The indicator material (30) is in direct contact with the gas barrier layer (20). The film (10) is particularly useful as an item of packaging, particularly in packaging for perishable materials.
