A hybrid fabric made of at least one textile base layer and at least one synthetic layer, where the synthetic layer is at least partially embedded within the textile base layer. The embedded synthetic layer imparts numerous qualities to the hybrid fabric formed and possible designs visible through the surface of the fabric. The hybrid fabric may be manufactured in different methods including hot and cold press, knitting, felting and use of intermediate linking adhesive or polymeric layer.

The present disclosure provides a food contact article. According to one embodiment, the food contact article includes at least one food contact surface. This at least one food contact surface is made up of at least 50 weight percent of at least one biodegradable polymer, such as polyhydroxyalkanoates, and from about 0.1 weight percent to about 1.0 weight percent of at least one antimicrobial agent.

A method is disclosed for applying an antibacterial coating onto a substrate having one or more layers of print. In a printing press, one or more layers of print are applied to a substrate in a printing step. A finishing composition is applied over the layers of ink by a finishing stage in a finishing step to form a continuous outer protective layer. The finishing composition is applied to the substrate by a roller. The printing step and the finishing step are performed simultaneously. The finishing composition includes an antibacterial additive.

Described herein is a mirror apparatus comprising: a reflective substrate; and an anti-fog complex comprising: an adhesive layer atop the substrate; a first polymeric layer atop the pressure sensitive adhesive layer; and a second polymeric layer atop the first polymeric layer. Methods of making the mirror apparatus are also disclosed.

The present invention is directed to a thermoplastic packaging film coated with an antimicrobial coating, a method for the preparation of the coated film and packaging articles made with the film.

Composite gypsum panels and methods of making thereof are provided. The composite gypsum panels can include one or more gypsum panel substrates having one or more urethane layers applied thereto. The urethane layers can be or can include foamed urethane layers, provided for structural integrity while being lighter than conventional gypsum panels having the same overall thickness. The panel can have a dense coating layer, a foamed coating layer, or both a dense coating layer and a foamed coating layer. The dense coating layers and foamed coating layers can each offer certain advantages over conventional gypsum panels. Additionally, in various aspects, the composite panel includes a water-resistant barrier and increased nail and screw retention.

An impact-resistant film comprises at least one layer of an elastomeric polymer material and an adhesive layer.

Described herein is flooring formed of an eco-friendly material, where the flooring has excellent heat resistance, durability, abrasion resistance and dimensional stability, and is formed of a non-PVC material and thus is recyclable via an extrusion processing at the time of disposal after use. Specifically, eco-friendly flooring is described in which a coating layer, an overlayer having ionomers, a printing layer, at least one middle layer, and at least one underlayer are laminated in order, where the overlayer of the flooring has ionomers, at least one of the middle layer and the underlayer has a thermoplastic polyolefin-based resin, a styrene-based resin, oil, and a filler, the thermoplastic polyolefin-based resin is contained in an amount of 50 to 150 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the styrene-based resin, and the styrene-based resin may contain 25 to 45% styrene.

This invention relates to inner-plies for bulk-bags that surprisingly offer not only high thermal resistance, but also high flex-crack resistance. This invention also relates to such bulk-bags made for packaging of flowable materials, aseptic or otherwise, and the process for improving their flex-crack and thermal resistance. Preferably, the packaging is aseptic. More specifically, the inner-ply of the invention comprises a resin blend comprising the Exceed® XP resin; an LDPE resin or an ethylene—α-olefin copolymer (EAO copolymer); or a blend of said LDPE resin and said EAO copolymer, with flex-crack resistance improved in both machine direction and transverse direction, in conjunction with an improved thermal resistance. Thus, in addition to possessing good flex-crack resistance, the bulk-bags can withstand steam sterilization and/or aseptic packaging conditions.

Provided are a liner and a display device including the same. The liner includes a first liner including a first shield can protection portion, a first grip portion, and a connection portion coupling the first shield can protection portion to the first grip portion, a second liner including a second shield can protection portion and a second grip portion, and a perforated line formed along a boundary between the first liner and the second shield can protection portion.
