A method of making a device substrate article having a device modified substrate supported on a glass carrier substrate, including: treating at least a portion of the first surface of a device substrate, at least a portion of a first surface of a glass carrier, or a combination thereof, wherein the treating produces a surface having: silicon; oxygen; carbon; and fluorine amounts; and a metal to fluorine ratio as defined herein; contacting the treated surface with an untreated or like-treated counterpart device substrate or glass carrier substrate to form a laminate comprised of the device substrate bonded to the glass carrier substrate; modifying at least a portion of the non-bonded second surface of the device substrate of the laminate with at least one device surface modification treatment; and separating the device substrate having the device modified second surface from the glass carrier substrate.

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.

A floor panel has a rectangular and oblong shape, and includes a substrate and a top layer provided on the substrate and forming a decorative side of the floor panel. The top layer is composed of a print provided on a carrier sheet and a transparent thermoplastic layer situated above the print. The substrate has a thickness from 2 to 10 millimeter and forms at least half of the thickness of the floor panel. The substrate is a polyurethane-based substrate and the transparent thermoplastic layer is polyurethane-based. The floor panel has a length of more than 1.1 meters and has a plurality of reinforcing layers situated outside the center line of the substrate. A reinforcing layer may be provided in combination with the substrate and the top layer.

A decorative panel including a substrate material and a decorative top layer, wherein the decorative top layer includes at least one timber layer with a wood structure, wherein the timber layer is a compressed timber layer with naturally occurring vessels throughout a thickness of the wood structure, the vessels being collapsed.

The present invention provides a layered body for organic electroluminescence which is excellent in the hardness, the transparency and the folding-durable performance. The present invention is a layered body for organic electroluminescence in which an optical layered body is laminated on one surface of an organic electroluminescence layer and which is not cracked or fractured when a test in which the entire area of the layered body for organic electroluminescence is folded 180 degrees at 20 mm intervals is repeated 100,000 times.

[Object] To provide a method for the production of a thin plate-like laminate having a film-like resin layer in which a concave/convex shape can stably be formed with high accuracy on the film-like resin layer laminated on a thin plate-like substrate.

[Achieving Means] There are provided a step of creating a mold retention structure 100 in which molds 110, which have been heated to a thermal deformation temperature of a film-like resin composition 84, are arranged on both surface sides of a workpiece 85, and a step of introducing the mold retention structure in which the heated molds are arranged between two compression rollers 52, 54 and compressing outer surfaces of the molds by rotating the compression rollers to integrally thermocompression-bond the film-like resin composition and a substrate 81 to form a thin plate-like laminate 80 having a film-like resin layer 82.

An article comprises a first plate, a second plate and a cured adhesive layer. The first plate is made of a first chemically-strengthened glass-based material. The first plate comprises: a first major surface opposing a second major surface and a thickness equal to or greater than 0.4 mm and less than or equal to 3.0 mm. The second plate is made of a second chemically-strengthened transparent glass-based material. The second plate comprises: a first major surface opposing a second major surface and a thickness equal to or greater than 0.4 mm and less than or equal to 3.0 mm. The cured adhesive layer adheres a portion of the first major surface of the plate to the second major surface of the second plate. The second plate has an area equal to or less than 25% of the area of the first plate.

A resin molded article is equipped with a resin base material layer, a cover layer, and a design layer. The design layer is provided on a design side end surface of the resin base material layer, whereas the cover layer is provided on a cover side end surface which is a rear surface of the design side end surface. Further, the cover layer includes a first end surface facing toward the cover side end surface, and a second end surface which is a rear surface of the first end surface. The first end surface is covered by a first coating layer, and the second end surface is covered by a second coating layer.

The disclosed embodiments generally relate to transaction card constructions, and particularly, to a two-piece transaction card construction. Disclosed embodiments include a generally planar first card component including a first surface and a generally planar second card component including a second surface wherein the first card component is separate from the second card component. In disclosed embodiments, for example, the generally planar first card component and the generally planar second card component may be configured such that one forms a cavity and the other forms an inlay component configured to be seated within the cavity. In other embodiments the generally planar first card component and the generally planar second card component may be configured such that one forms a container and the other forms a lid configured to close the container.
