A packing member which effectively prevents the liquid repellent material from peeling off the surface and which is provided with the surface excellent in liquid repellency without the need of executing any particular means such as surface-roughening work, treatment with a plasma or vapor deposition. The packing member is characterized by having a surface layer of a blend of a base material polymer mixed with a fluorine-containing polymer, the surface layer forming a gradient of fluorine atom concentration in which fluorine atoms are more distributed in the surface than in the interior.

A packaging bag is made of a plastic fabric composite with a tape fabric formed of intersecting film tapes and with an outer film comprising oriented polyolefin. An acrylate coating is incorporated in the plastic fabric composite, wherein the coating is arranged on the outer film, or an inner film of oriented polyolefin is provided between the outer film and the tape fabric, and the coating is arranged at least on one side of the inner film facing the outer film.

Provided herein are back sheets comprising and/or otherwise made from thermoplastic vulcanizates, PV modules comprising such TPV-based back sheets, and methods for forming the TPV back sheets and PV modules. TPV-based back sheets provide particular advantages over incumbent back sheets, including increased flexibility, greater electrical insulation properties, and more desirable barrier properties. The TPV-based back sheets of some embodiments provide PV modules improved endurance, particularly under the changing and often harsh environmental conditions in which PV modules are often deployed. The TPV-based back sheets of some embodiments also enable efficient construction of unusual PV module geometries, such as non-planar (e.g., curved and/or hinged) geometries.

The present disclosure provides for an aqueous dispersion for use in coating applications. The aqueous dispersion includes an aqueous composition and a solid content of a melt blend product having an acid functionalized polypropylene base polymer, a polypropylene copolymer, an acid functionalized polypropylene wax and an acid functionalized polyolefin. The aqueous dispersion is included in a coating composition, where the coating composition includes the aqueous dispersion, a solvent, a crosslinker and a basic water composition having water and a base. The present disclosure also provides for a coated article having a substrate and a coating on the substrate, where the coating includes the coating composition of the present disclosure.

A method of making a coating applied to an article is provided. The method includes preparing at least one substrate on the article to be coated, to obtain at least one prepared substrate. The method further includes preparing the coating, obtained by disposing a plurality of high density metal pellets in an adhesive material, to form a metal adhesive matrix, and adding a polymer material over the metal adhesive matrix. The plurality of high density metal pellets is in an amount of at least 90% (ninety percent) by weight of the total weight percent of the coating. The method further includes applying the coating to the prepared substrate, to obtain a mass-enhanced, coated article. The coating thickness and the amount of high density metal pellets are sufficient to provide an attenuation of vibration of the coated article and a reduced risk of unwanted ergonomic effects.
