The invention relates to a method for producing a composite film with a polyurethane-based reactive hot-melt layer using a coating facility, having the steps of a) optionally applying a primer onto a support material; b) applying the polyurethane-based reactive hot-melt layer onto the primer or directly onto the support material; c) applying a lacquer layer onto the polyurethane-based reactive hot-melt layer in order to produce the composite film on the support material; d) optionally embossing the composite film on the support material; and e) separating the composite film from the support material. The invention additionally relates to a composite film which can be obtained by such a method and to the use thereof.

An apparatus, and a system for manufacturing a bioplastic material from a blend solution of gum arabica (GA) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is provided. The apparatus includes a panel having a first end, a second end distal to the first end, and a plurality of walls extending from a periphery of the panel, the panel configured to accommodate the blend solution. The apparatus further includes a plurality of support members coupled to the first end and the second end of the panel and configured to adjust a slope angle of the panel; and one or more vibration generating units coupled to the plurality of support members and configured to vibrate the panel when the blend solution flows from the first end to the second end of the panel. A method of preparing the bioplastic material is also disclosed.

A method of fabricating a casting, the method including applying a substrate to a sacrificial mold, the sacrificial mold including a shaped non-planar receiving surface to receive the substrate and provide a casting of the substrate having a shaped structure corresponding to the receiving surface; and subjecting the sacrificial mold and casting to freeze drying conditions and sublimating the sacrificial mold from the casting to form a cast article including the shaped non-planar structure.

Methods for producing at least a part of a sporting good, in particular a sports shoe, can include: (a) depositing a first material into a mold, and (b) vibrating the mold to modify the distribution of the first material in the mold.

A screw smelting machine melts raw materials with a different chemical ratio in a mixing funnel in a feeding order to prevent the long-range diffusion of a melt, and controls outflow at a suitable speed. A centrifugal casting machine solidifies the melt with the ingredients gradient varying into a radial ingredient gradient material by a centrifugal casting style. A temperature sensor monitors temperature of an outer surface of a centrifuge cavity of the centrifugal casting machine during centrifugal casting, and transmits the temperature to a control platform. The control platform determines an optimal flow rate of the melt at an end of screw rod according to ingredient gradient of ingredient radial-gradient pipe materials and a thickness of each component gradient material required with preparation, in combination with a real-time data fed back from the temperature sensor, and feeds back to a feeding end.

A method for producing a dip-molded article, the method including steps of immersing a mold for dip molding in a coagulant solution to deposit the coagulant on the mold for dip molding; providing a latex composition containing a carboxy-modified conjugated diene polymer latex which is a dispersion of carboxy-modified conjugated diene polymer particles having a volume average particle size of 500 to 2,000 nm in water; and immersing the mold for dip molding having the coagulant deposited thereon in the latex composition to obtain a dip-molded article having a thickness of 0.02 to 0.19 mm.
