Disclosed are: a polyalkylene terephthalate resin composition comprising (A) a polyalkylene terephthalate resin and (B) an acrylic-based core-shell polymer which has an average particle size of 2 μm or greater and in which an amount of the core layer component is more than 80% by mass but less than 100% by mass relative to a total mass of the core layer component and a shell layer component; and a molded article which is obtained by molding the polyalkylene terephthalate resin composition.

A methacrylic resin composition comprises a methacrylic resin, the methacrylic resin comprising: 50 mass % to 97 mass % of a methacrylic acid ester monomer unit (A); 3 mass % to 30 mass % of a structural unit (B) having a cyclic structure-containing main chain; and 0 mass % to 20 mass % of another vinyl monomer unit (C) that is copolymerizable with a methacrylic acid ester monomer, wherein the methacrylic resin satisfies a specific condition; and the composition has a weight average molecular weight residual ratio of 80% or more upon heating under a nitrogen atmosphere at 280° C. for 1 hour, and has a weight average molecular weight residual ratio of 80% or more upon heating in air at 280° C. for 0.5 hours.

A hot stamping apparatus and a hot stamping method are for collectively decorating a plurality of decoration objects using a decorative sheet. In a hot stamping apparatus, an upper chamber and a lower chamber are partitioned by a partition sheet and pressing bodies, so that decorative sheet pieces can be used instead of a decorative sheet having a large area. Then, by using the decorative sheet pieces, local thermal deformation can be prevented. A usage amount of the decorative sheet can be reduced, and three-dimensional decoration can be implemented as needed on a portion requiring decoration.

An additive manufacturing method wherein the carrier (400) is within a vessel (100), the vessel contains the free-radically crosslinkable resin (300) and a liquid (200) which is immiscible with the free-radically cross-linkable resin (300) and has a higher density than the free-radically crosslinkable resin (300), such that the free-radically crosslinkable resin (300) floats on top of the liquid (200) and, prior to each step II), the distance between the carrier (400) and the free-radically crosslinkable resin (300) is altered such that a layer of the free-radically crosslinkable resin forms above the uppermost surface (420), viewed in vertical direction, of the previously deposited layer of the construction material (600) and at least partially forms contact with this uppermost surface (420) of the previously deposited layer of the construction material (600). The free-radically crosslinkable resin (300) comprises a urethane (meth)acrylate. The invention further relates to the use of a free-radically crosslinkable resin comprising a urethane (meth)acrylate as construction material in a two-phase 3D printing method.

According to the present invention, provided are a liquid crystal film for three-dimensional molding from which a three-dimensional molded body which is excellent in reproducibility of image light can be obtained during image light irradiation, a three-dimensional molded body, and a method of manufacturing the three-dimensional molded body. A liquid crystal film for three-dimensional molding includes: a substrate; and a functional layer, the functional layer includes a liquid crystal layer, the liquid crystal layer is made from a liquid crystal composition, and a rubbing haze variation of an outermost surface of the functional layer is 0.80% or less.

A surfacing material includes a substrate having a top side and a bottom side. A matte surface is formed on the bottom side thereof, wherein the matte surface of the surfacing material is a coating of an electron beam radiation curable material applied to the bottom side of the substrate. The coating is an epoxy acrylic or urethane acrylic laid upon the substrate. The epoxy acrylic or urethane acrylic is irradiated with UV-radiation to produce a UV-radiation layer wherein the epoxy acrylic or urethane acrylic is neither hardened nor is an entire layer of the epoxy acrylic or urethane acrylic crosslinked but rather the epoxy acrylic or urethane acrylic only crosslinked on the surface thereof, which produces a matting surface through the effects of a micro-convolution.

An additive manufacturing method wherein the carrier (400) is within a vessel (100), the vessel contains the free-radically crosslinkable resin (300) and a liquid (200) which is immiscible with the free-radically cross-linkable resin (300) and has a higher density than the free-radically crosslinkable resin (300), such that the free-radically crosslinkable resin (300) floats on top of the liquid (200) and, prior to each step II), the distance between the carrier (400) and the free-radically crosslinkable resin (300) is altered such that a layer of the free-radically crosslinkable resin forms above the uppermost surface (420), viewed in vertical direction, of the previously deposited layer of the construction material (600) and at least partially forms contact with this uppermost surface (420) of the previously deposited layer of the construction material (600). The free-radically crosslinkable resin (300) comprises a urethane (meth)acrylate. The invention further relates to the use of a free-radically crosslinkable resin comprising a urethane (meth)acrylate as construction material in a two-phase 3D printing method.

An object of the present invention is to provide a method for forming an antiglare hard coat layer having a concavo-convex shape that exhibits a good antiglare property and being superior in scratch resistance.
