The present invention relates to method for producing a printed decorative paper comprising the steps of: i) providing a substrate paper; ii) applying to said substrate paper a decorative layer; iii) applying to said decorative layer a liquid coating consisting essentially of a polymerizable mixture; iv) applying polymerization conditions to form a polymerized layer on said decorative layer. An object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a printed decorative paper, which decorative paper is processed to form a decorative panel, which decorative panel thus obtained will exhibit a good resistance against weather influences.

A material including a transparent substrate coated with a stack acting on infrared radiation includes at least one functional layer and at least one upper protective layer deposited above at least a part of the functional layer. The upper protective layer is a hydrogenated carbon layer, within which layer the carbon atoms form carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds and are essentially in an sp.sup.2 hybridization state.

Provided is a spectacle lens having, on at least one side of a lens substrate, a polarizing layer containing a dichromic pigment, and a photochromic layer containing a photochromic pigment, and having the polarizing layer and the photochromic layer via an intermediate layer.

An interior trim part made by a method that includes the steps of bringing a fiber web onto a conveyor, needlepunching the fiber web to form a base in contact with the conveyor, and introducing a binder component on the base. The binder component introduced on the base is a thermoplastic polymer in solid form. The method includes a step for heating the base to cause the thermoplastic polymer making up the binder component to penetrate the base over a thickness smaller than the thickness of the base.

The present invention relates to a molding made of expanded bead foam, wherein at least one fiber (F) is partly within the molding, i.e. is surrounded by the expanded bead foam. The two ends of the respective fibers (F) that are not surrounded by the expanded bead foam thus each project from one side of the corresponding molding. The present invention further provides a panel comprising at least one such molding and at least one further layer (S1). The present invention further provides processes for producing the moldings of the invention from expanded bead foam or the panels of the invention and for the use thereof, for example as rotor blade in wind turbines.

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.

Disclosed are device display screen protectors comprising a first strengthened substrate sized to cover a display screen of an electronic device, the first strengthened substrate having a central tension value in the range greater than 0 MPa and less than 20 MPa, a surface having a Knoop lateral cracking scratch threshold of at least 3 N.

Described is a carbon fibre fabric comprising an interlacement (2) of carbon fibre yarns (3) and polymer fibre yarns (4).

The present invention relates generally to the field of laminated packaging. In particular, the present invention relates to laminated flexible packaging comprising aluminium and a plastic sealant layer only on one side of the aluminium. One embodiment of the present invention relates to a laminated flexible packaging made at least in part from a laminated flexible packaging material comprising an aluminium foil layer, a plastic sealant layer and a coating, wherein the aluminium foil layer is laminated to the plastic sealant layer on the side facing the packaged product, the other side of the aluminium foil layer is coated with the coating but not laminated to a layer of plastic or paper, and wherein the laminated flexible packaging is manufactured from the laminated flexible packaging material on a horizontal form fill and seal (HFFS) machine.

The invention relates to a film containing a special polycarbonate or copolycarbonate of the formula (Ia), (I-2), (I-3) or (I-4) and to the use of the film in a security document and in a layer structure.
