A carpet tile having a greige good, an adhesive layer, and a secondary backing material. The greige good has a primary backing component and a plurality of fibers attached to the primary backing component. The adhesive layer has an adhesive composition and a reinforcement material that is at least partially embedded within the adhesive composition. The adhesive layer is applied to a back surface of the primary backing component. The secondary backing material is adhered to the primary backing component by contact with a portion of the adhesive composition that flows through the reinforcement material. The reinforcement material and the secondary backing material are co-laminated onto the adhesive composition.

A system and methods for manufacturing a dry electrode for an energy storage device are disclosed. The system includes a first dry electrode material delivery system configured to deliver a dry electrode material, a first calendering roll, a second calendering roll, and a controller. The second calendering roll is configured to form a first nip between the first calendering roll and the second calendering roll. The first nip is configured to receive the dry electrode material from the first dry electrode material delivery system, and form a dry electrode film from the dry electrode material. The controller is configured to control a rotational velocity of the second calendering roll to be greater than a rotational velocity of the first calendering roll.

A laminate (110) of polypropylene films (100), a luggage shell (120) constructed of the laminate (110), a method (200) of making the laminate (110), and a method (280) of making the luggage shell (120) are provided. The films (100) include a core (102) and at least one outer layer (104). The laminate (110) includes a plurality of films (100). The laminate (110) may be formed by laminating a plurality of films 100 under predetermined pressure, temperature, and time conditions. The shell (120) may be formed by deep drawing a sheet of laminate (110) while applying heat and tension to the laminate (110).

The application relates to a water transfer compound, preferably for use for the humidification of process gases for fuel cells, comprising:a water-permeable and essentially gas-impermeable water transfer layer as well asat least one thermoplastic protection layer which is water- and gas-permeable at least in sections, wherethe water transfer layer and the thermoplastic protection layer overlap each other at least in sections and comprise a first and a second overlapping area, wherethe water transfer layer in the first overlapping area is accessible for humid gases through the thermoplastic protection layer and the water transfer compound is thermocompressed in the second overlapping area so that the water transfer layer in the second overlapping area is not accessible for humid gases through the compressed thermoplastic protection layer.

Liner having an induction heat sealable layer for sealing to a rim of a container, and a pull tab for ease of removal of the liner from the container rim. An insert is disposed between multilayer upper and lower components, has a heat bondable polyolefin layer that is thermally laminated to polyolefin layers of the upper and lower components, forming a pull tab between the integrated polyolefin layers. The resulting composite resists delamination and can be formed in a single thermal lamination step, avoiding the multiple lamination steps, associated high equipment costs, and complex layer constructions of the prior art.

Provided are a method and an apparatus for producing a film with a coating solution including a material whose performance is deteriorated by oxygen functional film, without performance deterioration. The apparatus for producing a functional film includes a coating device which has a backup roller and a die coater and applies a coating solution having a dissolved oxygen concentration of 1000 ppm or less and including 10000 ppm or less of an organic solvent to a flexible support transported in a state where the support is wound around the backup roller to form a coated film, a lamination device which laminates a coated surface of the coated film and the film on the backup roller, and an inert gas atmosphere forming device which forms an inert gas atmosphere in a space including the coated surface from a coating start position to a lamination start position on the backup roller.
