The present application provides a foldable display device, a manufacturing method thereof, and a jig. The foldable display device includes a folding region, a non-folding region, a flexible display panel, and a functional layer attached through an adhesive layer. In a pre-bent state of the foldable display device, an angle between portions of the foldable display device corresponding to the non-folding region on two opposite sides of the folding region is greater than 0 degree and less than 180 degrees. A stress of a portion of the adhesive layer corresponding to the folding region is less than or equal to a first predetermined threshold.

An elastomeric laminate is extensible in a first direction and has a first laminate surface; a second laminate surface substantially opposite the first laminate surface; and a laminate thickness, T, extending between the first and second laminate surfaces. A pre-SELFed coverstock layer forms the first laminate surface. The pre-SELF coverstock layer has a primary activation pattern, wherein the primary activation pattern includes SELF-specific land areas that extend in the first direction and one or more activation thicknesses. Each activation thickness is less than the laminate thickness, T. The elastomeric laminate also has an elastomeric layer joined to the pre-SELFed coverstock layer. The elastomeric layer forms the second laminate surface. The elastomeric laminate may be a zero strain laminate, a gathered laminate, or a hybrid gathered laminate.

A method for forming an elastomeric laminate includes the steps of providing a first coverstock material; SELF'ing the first coverstock material to create a pre-SELFed coverstock layer having a primary activation pattern comprising SELF-specific land areas; providing an elastomeric layer; and joining the elastomeric layer to the pre-SELFed layer at zero relative strain, such that the elastomeric layer and pre-SELFed coverstock layer are joined at one or more bonding sites.

Disclosed is a stretchable, three-dimensional tubular structure formed due to processing-induced wrinkles to result in a platform for stretchable interactive electronics. The three-dimensional tubular structure is fabricated simply by releasing a pre-stretched two-dimensional film-substrate precursor, and the resulting wrinkled surface shows a strong directional dependence that drives the tube formation.

The present disclosure discloses an embossed patterned elastic laminate. The elastic laminate has an embossed pattern of at least three surface areas. The current disclosure also includes a process for making an embossed patterned elastic laminate. The embossed patterned elastic laminate provides a permanent change to visual aesthetic without adversely impacting the elastic film.

The present invention relates to substrates and composites having dynamic, reversible micron-level luminal surface deformation including texture or geometric instabilities, e.g., surface wrinkling and folding. The surface deformation and its reversal to the original surface form or to another, different surface form, is effective to reduce or prevent surface fouling and, more particularly, in certain applications, to reduce or prevent unwanted platelet adhesion and thrombus formation. The substrates and composites include a wide variety of designs and, more particularly, biomedical-related designs, such as, synthetic vascular graft or patch designs.
