Method for joining two substantially planar fiber-composite structural components with each other

A method for joining two substantially planar fiber-composite structural components, includes stacking the two components on a support jig to overlap along a joining region. A lower component end section within the joining region borders a gap between the upper component and the jig, where the upper component is unsupported by the jig. The gap is bordered on an opposite side of the lower component end section by a filling portion of the upper component or a planar filler element supported by the jig. The lower component is joined to the upper component within the joining region by applying temperature and pressure to the components. A width of the gap allows the upper component to elastically deform along the gap under the pressure and bend down into the gap to abut the jig along the gap and thereby compensate thickness tolerances between the components during the pressure application.

STRETCHABLE LAMINATE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME

A problem to be solved by the invention is to provide a stretchable laminate achieving both of excellent elongation and an excellent breaking strength, and a method of manufacturing the laminate. A stretchable laminate of the present invention includes non-woven fabric layers and an elastomer layer. The non-woven fabric layers are each a long-fiber hydroentangled non-woven fabric. The stretchable laminate achieving both of excellent elongation and an excellent breaking strength is obtained by using the long-fiber hydroentangled non-woven fabric, which is a non-woven fabric formed through the fixation of fibers formed by a spun-laid method by a hydroentangling method.

Process for forming a window in a carton

A container with a non-heat-seal window and a process for fabricating a low surface energy container with a non-heat-seal window. The process comprises forming a container template and cutting an opening in the container template. A window comprising a window stock material, a releasable liner, and a wiped on adhesive positioned between the window stock material and the releasable liner is sized to overlap the opening. A portion of the adhesive is exposed and the window is positioned over the opening. The window is then secured to the container template over the opening without the need to apply heat, and the container template is folded into the low surface energy container with the window.
