The method for the production of curved furniture components comprises: an overlapping step of a first panel of wooden, plastic or metal material, of at least one intermediate separating layer and of a second panel of wooden, plastic or metal material for obtaining a flat semi-finished product having a perimeter edge; an interposition step of a polyurethane type adhesive between the intermediate layer and the first panel and second panel by hot dispensing of said adhesive on the surfaces of the first and the second panels which are adapted to be associated with the intermediate layer or by hot dispensing of the adhesive on the surfaces of the intermediate layer which are adapted to be associated with said first panel and second panel; a cold shaping step of the semi-finished product for obtaining a curved component; and a spraying step of a water-based auxiliary substance between the intermediate layer and at least one of the first panel and the second panel, subsequent to the interposition of the adhesive.

This invention relates a compostable lid for sealing a beverage capsule or a beverage pad wherein the lid comprises a natural-fiber based support obtainable by: (i) providing a first fibrous base sheet comprising natural fiber material sensitive to a gelatinizing agent; (ii) treating the first base sheet with a gelatinizing agent to give a treated first fibrous base sheet comprising gelatinized material; (iii) providing a second fibrous base sheet; (iv) contacting the treated first fibrous base sheet and the second base sheet with each other; (v) causing at least partial migration of the gelatinized material from the treated first fibrous base sheet into the second fibrous base sheet to give a multilayer product; and (vi) neutralizing and/or washing the product thus obtained and then drying it.

Disclosed is a preparation method for a copper clad laminate comprising: (1) dissolving a polymer in an organic solvent, heating and stirring to obtain a pre-impregnation liquid; (2) impregnating a liquid crystal polymer cloth in the pre-impregnation liquid, and drying to obtain a liquid crystal polymer impregnated cloth; and (3) laminating the liquid crystal polymer impregnated cloth and a copper foil to prepare the copper clad laminate, wherein the polymer in step (1) is at least one selected from the group consisting of fully aromatic polyesteramide, epoxy resin, and polyimide; and the liquid crystal polymer cloth in step (2) is prepared from a liquid crystal polymer having a melting point greater than 280° C., a dielectric constant less than 3.2, and a dielectric loss tangent angle less than 0.0025. The preparation method for the copper clad laminate has a simple preparation process and a low manufacturing cost.

Disclosed is a process of manufacturing a thickened angle ring. The process includes the steps of: soaking wet paper into deionized water for 1 hour; beating bonding surfaces of the two pieces of wet paper into fuzzed and rough surfaces; placing a heat resisting polyester film and a nylon net on a mold, and placing one fuzzed wet paper on the mold in contact with the nylon net on smooth side thereof; placing the other wet paper in contact with the fuzzed surface of the previous wet paper on fuzzed side thereof, and beating until the wet paper fits the mold; placing a further heat resisting polyester film and a further nylon net on the two pieces of wet paper for pressing.

A flow cell that includes (a) a gasket interposed between a first substrate and a second substrate, wherein the gasket, the first substrate and the second substrate are impermeable to aqueous liquid and liquid adhesive, wherein the gasket has a footprint on the first substrate that delineates a channel for containing the aqueous liquid; (b) a via in the gasket, the via containing a solidified liquid adhesive that bonds the first substrate to the second substrate, wherein the solidified liquid adhesive in the via is separated from the channel by the gasket; and (c) a channel port connecting the channel to the exterior of the flow cell, wherein the channel port is permeable to the aqueous liquid.

An installation and a method for selectively producing a single-ply or alternatively a multi-ply nonwoven includes an inclined wire former configured to deposit a sheet of wet-laid fibre material on a first circulating belt, a further belt configured to receive the sheet of wet-laid fibre material from the first circulating belt, a roller card arranged downstream in the material transport direction and configured to introduce a roller card web into the installation, a hydroentanglement arranged downstream in the material transport direction and including at least one water beam configured to entangle, bond and/or structure a single sheet of fibres or a plurality of sheets of fibres, and a dryer arranged downstream in the material transport direction

A method is provided for manufacturing a paper layer having a printed pattern for use in panels that at least include a substrate and a top layer. The top layer includes the paper layer. The method may involve providing the paper layer with an inkjet receiver coating by transporting the paper layer relative to a coater in a coating direction. The coated paper layer may be provided with at least a portion of the printed pattern using a digital inkjet printer that includes a housing containing print heads. Providing the printed pattern may involve using water based pigment containing inks. The printed pattern may include a wood motif having wood nerves extending generally in a nerve direction substantially corresponding to the coating direction. Providing the printed pattern may involve a relative motion between the digital inkjet printer and the paper layer during a printing operation in a printing direction substantially corresponding or substantially opposite to the coating direction. The paper layer may be maintained flat inside the housing, or the minimum radius over which the paper layer is bent inside the housing may be larger than 25 centimeters. The paper layer may be fed from a roll, printed upon, and rolled back up again.

A thermoplastic film which exhibits elastic-like behavior along at least one axis when stretched or elongated and then released. The thermoplastic film comprises a plurality of raised rib-like elements extending in a direction perpendicular to a main surface of the thermoplastic film. The thermoplastic film further includes a plurality of web areas positioned about the plurality of raised rib-like elements. The plurality of raised rib-like elements and plurality of web areas are arranged in a complex pattern. The complex pattern provides visual and tactile cues as the films are stretched or elongated. The complex pattern can cause the thermoplastic film to have a complex stretch profile.

Methods of tracing a lengthwise half of a board sports board and applying a substrate film cutout onto the board having the steps of centering a centerline of a tracing scale onto a center of the board, the tracing scale having an off-centerline on both sides of the centerline; aligning a centerline mark of the film with the off-centerline of the tracing scale; flipping the board over such that the board is on top of the film; tracing a trace outline of half of the board onto the film, such that the half of the trace outline is incrementally larger or smaller than the half of the board; removing a release liner from the trace outline to expose an adhesive in the film; wetting the adhesive with a solution of water and liquid soap; flattening the wetted film onto the board with a spreader; and wiping with a wiping cloth.
