A nonwoven fabric sheet exhibiting high flame shielding performance, heat insulating property, and wear resistance is described, where the nonwoven fabric sheet is fabricated and includes at least one fire barrier layer formed of a web containing a non-melting fiber A having a high-temperature shrinkage rate of 3% or less and a thermal conductivity conforming to ISO22007-3 (2008) of 0.060 W/m.Math.K or less and in which the fire barrier layer is coupled with a scrim layer containing a carbide-forming heat resistant fiber B having a LOI value conforming to JIS K 7201-2 (2007) of 25 or more.

A composite oil pan for a work vehicle engine and a method of forming the composite engine oil pan include forming a sheet of metal into a first pan and open molding a fiber-reinforced polymer resin onto the first pan forming a second pan. The first pan has a first bottom wall and first peripheral walls extending from edges of the first bottom wall to define a sump, the first peripheral walls terminating in a first peripheral flange. The second pan has a second bottom wall and second peripheral walls abutting the first bottom wall and the first peripheral walls, the second peripheral walls terminating in a second peripheral flange. The first pan defines a thin metal structure with an inner surface extending across the first bottom wall, first peripheral walls and first peripheral flange; the second pan reinforces the first pan without abutting the inner surface.

A method of manufacturing a composite laminate. The method comprises providing a base layer, providing a discontinuous reinforcing patch on the base layer, and providing a top layer over the base layer and discontinuous reinforcing patch. Also, a composite laminate having a discontinuous reinforcing patch interposed between a base layer and a top layer. The discontinuous reinforcing patch comprises a patterned nanomaterial layer with nanomaterial-filled zones and vacant zones.

A wood or engineered wood structural panel, such as, but not limited to, OSB (“oriented strand board”) or plywood, that is both fire-resistant and water resistant. The panel is factory-coated with a product that provides fire resistance. The treatment gives it a Fire-Resistant (FR) performance (for use in a one- or two-hour rated assembly). The panel also is overlaid or coated in a factory setting with a weather/water resistive barrier (WRB). The structural panel thus combines a fire-resistant structural sheathing and WRB product in one integrated panel produced at a factory prior for installation at a job site.

It is an object of the present invention to provide fine fibrous cellulose capable of enhancing transparency and suppressing coloring, when the fine fibrous cellulose are processed into a dispersed solution or a sheet. The present invention relates to fine fibrous cellulose, in which the amount of substituents introduced is less than 0.5 mmol/g and the fiber width is 1 to 10 nm. Moreover, the present invention relates to a dispersed solution and a sheet, each of which comprises fine fibrous cellulose. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for producing fine fibrous cellulose, comprising: (A) removing at least a part of substituents from fine fibrous cellulose with a fiber width of 1000 nm or less having the substituents, and (B) performing a uniform dispersion treatment on the resulting fine fibrous cellulose after completion of the (A).

A building panel having a substrate and a layer arrangement, arranged on one side of the substrate. The layer arrangement having a surface layer and where the surface layer includes carpet fibres. At least the substrate at least partly includes a mechanical locking device for connecting at least two building panels. Where the substrate and the layer arrangement each includes a polymer of the same type of polymer.

A resin composition for a semiconductor package according to an embodiment includes a resin composition comprising a resin and a filler provided in the resin, wherein the resin includes a soluble liquid crystal polymer resin, and wherein the filler has a negative coefficient of thermal expansion (negative CTE) and is provided in the soluble liquid crystal polymer resin.

The invention relates to a method of making an insulation product and a novel insulation product, wherein the insulation product is made by adhering a facing to at least one major surface of a batt of man-made vitreous fibres in a matrix comprising a binder by the use of an adhesive and curing the adhesive. The adhesive is an aqueous composition which comprises a component (i) in form of one or more oxidized lignins; a component (ii) in form of one or more cross-linkers; a component (iii) in form of one or more plasticizers.

Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a soundproofing board part having improved sound absorption performance. The soundproofing board part is manufactured by using, as a material, a recycled soundproofing material which contains a polyurethane foam having excellent sound absorption performance and impact resilience during the press molding; and by producing a sound absorption part on the back surface of the soundproofing board part through a remolding processing method. Also disclosed is a soundproofing board part manufactured by the method. Accordingly, sound absorption performance of the soundproofing board part is improved by about 20% or greater, manufacturing cost thereof may be reduced by recycled resources utilizing waste sheets, and manufacturing process may be simplified compared the related art.
