The present invention discloses a quantum-dot composite film comprising: a quantum-dot prism film, comprising a quantum-dot layer and a first plurality of prisms disposed over the quantum-dot layer, wherein a first optical prism film and a second optical prism film are disposed over the quantum-dot prism film for increasing the brightness level of the quantum-dot prism film.

A macro-molecular leakage-free self-adhering aluminum foil has two layers of aluminum foil compounded using a PET film, and the other surfaces of each layer coated with a modified PE adhesive layer respectively; or air gaps in one surface or two surfaces are filled with nano-aluminum to form a permeable air gap-free surface. The foil has advantages: 1, high folding resistance, fatigue resistance and strength 2, wrapping self-adhering performance is good, and stripping strength formed after adhesion is several times as high as that of the prior art; 3, air gaps in the surface of the aluminum foil filled with nano-aluminum powder result in improved compactness; manufacture from low-grade aluminum foil, and so that rolling precision requirements are lowered, and manufacturing cost reduced; 4, insulating strength is high, shielding effect is good, the return loss phenomenon is avoided, and tensile strength is good.

The present disclosure relates to multi-layer film constructions and methods of manufacturing and using the same. The multi-layer film constructions can include a first layer joined to a second layer. The first layer can include one or more abuse resistant materials. The second layer can include a sealant film, which can be a multi-layer film having one or more sealing layers or sublayers. The second layer can also include one or more barrier layers. The multi-layer film constructions can also include score regions, which can be imparted by a laser or other mechanical implement.
