To obtain a decorative sheet having excellent fingerprint resistance of the decorative sheet surface, a decorative plate, and a method for producing a decorative sheet. A decorative sheet includes: a primary film layer; a colored pattern layer provided on one surface of the primary film layer; and a first surface protective layer provided on the surface on the side opposite to the primary film layer of the colored pattern layer, having a core part and ridge-like parts provided to project in a ridge-like shape from one surface of the core part, and having an irregular shape formed on the surface. The first surface protective layer of the decorative sheet is formed by irradiating a surface of an applied ionizing radiation curable resin with a first ionizing radiation having energy capable of cleaving a polymer chain of the ionizing radiation curable resin, to shrink the surface of the ionizing radiation curable resin, and form an irregular shape on the surface of the ionizing radiation curable resin, and irradiating the shrunk ionizing radiation curable resin with a second ionizing radiation curing the ionizing radiation curable resin to cure the ionizing radiation curable resin.

Disclosed are a skin-attachable adhesive patch mimicking a leg structure of a diving beetle and having excellent skin-attachment ability even in a dry or wet condition, and a method for manufacturing the same. The skin-attachable adhesive patch includes a substrate; a plurality of negative pressure chambers formed on a surface of the substrate, wherein each of the plurality of negative pressure chambers has a truncated hollow sphere structure; a micro-wrinkle layer formed on at least a portion of a remaining area of the substrate except for an area thereof where the negative pressure chambers are formed; and a patterned carbon particle layer formed on the micro-wrinkle layer.

A coating film is provided on the surface of a car body of an automobile and includes a plurality of protruding portions extending from the front toward the rear along the car body.

The elastomeric electrode includes: a stretchable substrate 10 having wrinkles formed on one surface thereof, the peaks C and valleys T of the wrinkles being repeated; a wrinkled metal nanoparticle layer 20 including metal nanoparticles 21 and formed by deposition of the metal nanoparticles along the wrinkles of the substrate 10; and a wrinkled monomolecular layer 30 including a monomolecular material having one or more amine groups (—NH.sub.2) and formed by deposition of the monomolecular material onto the metal nanoparticle layer 20. Also disclosed is a method for preparing the elastomeric electrode.

Disclosed are a protective coating layer, and a preparation method and use thereof. The present application provides a protective coating layer, including: a rusty-surface liquid layer, a nano-zinc yellow epoxy primer layer, a nano-epoxy micaceous iron oxide (MIO) intermediate coating layer, and a nano-fluorocarbon top coating layer, where the rusty-surface liquid layer is applied on a metal substrate; the nano-zinc yellow epoxy primer layer is applied on a surface of the rusty-surface liquid layer; the nano-epoxy MIO intermediate coating layer is applied on a surface of the nano-zinc yellow epoxy primer layer; and the nano-fluorocarbon top coating layer is applied on a surface of the nano-epoxy MIO intermediate coating layer. The present application effectively solves the technical problem that the existing protective coating layer with nanoparticles exhibits poor adhesion to a substrate and cannot provide a protective effect for a long time.

There is provided a decorative sheet having excellent design properties, i.e., low gloss, and having fingerprint resistance, high durability (particularly scratch resistance or contamination resistance), and processability. A decorative sheet (1) according to this embodiment includes: a base material layer (2); and a surface protective layer (5) provided on one surface of the base material layer (2), in which the surface protective layer (5) has ridge-like parts provided to project in a ridge-like shape and form an irregular shape on the surface, RSm/Ra of the irregular shape of the surface protective layer (5) is within the range of 10 or more and 300 or less, the surface protective layer (5) contains an ionizing radiation curable resin as a main material, the ionizing radiation curable resin contains, as a main component, a tetrafunctional acrylic resin containing a repeating structure, the repeating structure is any one of the structures of ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, and ε-caprolactone, and the number of repetitions of the repeating structure is 12 or more.

Methods of coating a substrate are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, a coating composition is applied to the substrate with a high transfer efficiency applicator to produce a coating layer, where the high transfer efficiency applicator and the substrate remain spatially separate while the coating composition is applied. A droplet of the coating composition expelled from the high transfer efficiency applicator has a particle size of about 10 microns or greater. The coating composition has a viscosity of from about 1,000 to about 1,000,000 centipoise when the coating composition is subject to a shear rate of about 0.1 reciprocal seconds (s.sup.−1). However, the coating composition is non-Newtonian such that a coating composition viscosity decreases when the shear rate is increased to the coating composition. The coating layer is impinged with a gas such that a coating layer surface moves upon impingement with the gas.

The invention provides methods and compositions related to adding a coating to a metal surface under low temperature conditions, such as a patina, where a binder is added to the surface, followed by a first dye, optionally the integrity of the first dye layer is disrupted to provide a mottled, cracked appearance, then a second dye layer is added, followed by a clear protective coat.

Provided herein is a two-component clearcoat composition that contains a first component comprising a hydroxyl-functional resin; and a second component comprising a crosslinking agent which is a first isocyanate resin which is unblocked; wherein at least one of the first component and the second component further comprises a blocked isocyanate resin which is a reacted form of a second isocyanate resin and a blocking agent; and wherein the first isocyanate resin and the second isocyanate resin are capable of reacting with the hydroxyl-functional resin to form a crosslinked coating. Further provided herein is a substrate coated with the clearcoat composition that exhibits improved visual appearance to the coated substrate, such as reduced orange peel and an increased balance value.
