There is provided a display device including a first member, a window on the first member, a first adhesive layer between the first member and the window, and a light blocking layer between the window and the first adhesive layer, the window including a first window portion contacting the first adhesive layer and including a bending portion and a non-bending portion, and a second window portion connected to the bending portion, the second window portion being spaced from the non-bending portion and contacting the light blocking layer, wherein the first adhesive layer includes, a first adhesive portion including a first sub-adhesive portion contacting the bending portion, and a second sub-adhesive portion contacting the non-bending portion, and a second adhesive portion contacting the light blocking layer, and wherein the first sub-adhesive portion has a modulus less than a modulus of each of the second sub-adhesive portion and the second adhesive portion.

Methods and apparatus to form venting pathways in pressure sensitive adhesives for laminate stacks are disclosed. An example method includes forming a laminate stack including a gas permeable nonwoven layer and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer. The pressure sensitive adhesive layer has a first surface and a second surface located opposite the first surface. The first surface contacts the gas permeable nonwoven layer. The method further includes processing the laminate stack by reducing a ductility of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer such that venting pathways are formed in the pressure sensitive adhesive layer in response to a mechanical strain applied to the pressure sensitive adhesive layer via a trapped gas. The venting pathways extend through a thickness of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer to enable the trapped gas to pass through the pressure sensitive adhesive layer from the second surface to the first surface.

Provide is a method for manufacturing an optical device capable of filling a curable resin composition without protrusion to the periphery even in a manufacturing process of the optical device using a transparent panel having a curved surface shape. The method includes: filling a lamination side of a transparent panel having a curved surface shape with a curable resin composition, curing the curable resin composition filling the lamination side to form a first cured resin layer, forming a dam member on an optical member, laminating the transparent panel and the optical member to form a laminate having a resin filling space surrounded by the dam member, filling the resin filling space with the curable resin composition, precuring the curable resin composition filled in the resin filling space to form a precured resin layer, and final curing the precured resin layer.

An autoclave includes a case, a chamber disposed inside the case, a cassette disposed inside the chamber, and a plurality of light sources mounted inside the cassette.

An electronic device may include a housing including a support member in an inner space thereof, at least one conductive pattern disposed on the support member, a cover member combined with at least a part of the housing, a first adhesive member disposed between the housing and the cover member to be overlapped at least in part with the at least one conductive pattern when the cover member is viewed from above, and a first masking film member attached to the first adhesive member and disposed between the first adhesive member and the at least one conductive pattern to be overlapped with the at least one conductive pattern when the cover member is viewed from above. A surface of the first masking film member facing the at least one conductive pattern may include a photosensitive adhesive layer containing a photo-initiator and having an adhesive force reduced or removed through irradiation of ultraviolet (UV) rays.

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.

According to a method of manufacturing an image display device of the present invention, a photo-curable resin composition in a liquid state is applied to a surface of a light-transmitting cover member including a light-shielding layer or a surface of the image display member to a thickness greater than that of the light-shielding layer. Then, in this state, the photo-curable resin composition is irradiated with a UV ray to be pre-cured, thereby forming a pre-cured resin layer. Next, the image display member and the light-transmitting cover member are stacked via the pre-cured resin layer and thereafter, the pre-cured resin layer is irradiated with a UV ray to be completely cured, thereby forming a light-transmitting cured resin layer.
