A thermoplastic surfacer for providing lightning strike protection to a composite component of an aircraft, methods of manufacturing the surfacer, and methods of applying the surfacer to a composite part. The thermoplastic surfacer includes a broadgood having a thermoplastic resin, one or more fillers embedded into the broadgood, and a lightning strike protection mesh or foil embedded into the broadgood. When applying the surfacer to a composite part of an aircraft, the method includes draping the surfacer on an at least partially unconsolidated composite part, consolidating the at least partially unconsolidated composite part by heating the part to a temperature at or above a melt temperature of a resins used in the part and in the surfacer, and filling at least one surface defect in the consolidated part using the thermoplastic polymer resin and milled fibers provided in the thermoplastic surfacer.

Described herein is a building panel comprising a body comprising a first fibrous material comprising inorganic fiber, a non-woven scrim coupled to the body; and wherein the non-woven scrim has a thickness ranging from about 8 mils to about 20 mils.

A sealing device includes a functional layer having a first major surface and a second major surface and a barrier layer directly or indirectly connected to the second major surface of the functional layer, wherein the functional layer has a surface roughness having a waviness factor W.sub.f. Also disclosed is a method for producing a sealing device and the use of a sealing device for waterproofing of a substrate.

The present disclosure relates to a multilayer composite that may include a multilayer composite that may include a first barrier layer and a first foam layer. The first foam layer may include a silicone-based matrix component, a flame retardant filler component, and an insulation filler component. The multilayer component may have a thickness of at least about 0.5 mm and no greater than about 10 mm. The multilayer component may also have a HBF flammability rating as measured according to ASTM D4986.

The present disclosure is related to a composite sandwich panel having a first layer including mica paper, a folded core or honeycomb structure including mica paper and a second layer including mica paper. The first and second layers are glued onto the foldcore using mineral adhesive made of one or more alkali metal silicate(s).

Provided is a laminate and a hot melt-type adhesive label that suppress curling due to swelling while having a pulp-paper feel. The laminate includes a porous substrate layer and an adhesive resin receiving layer on one side of the porous substrate layer, and the adhesive resin receiving layer contains an amorphous resin.

An object is to provide a barrier material which not only is high in degree of biomass and small in amount of CO.sub.2 emitted, but also has biodegradability and simultaneously has excellent gas barrier property and water vapor barrier property, and which can be suitably used particularly in packaging applications for foods or the like, such as a packaging material, a bag, a paper container, a cardboard box, and a cup. A solution to be provided is a barrier material having an oxygen permeability of 10 ml/m.sup.2.Math.day.Math.atm or less at a temperature of 23° C. and a relative humidity of 0%, and having a total degree of biomass of 50% or more.
