The present invention relates to a composite comprising (1) a bottom layer comprising expanded thermoplastic elastomer particles; and (2) a surface layer on the bottom layer, and the use of such composites in flooring surfaces sports, sports hall floorings, swimming pool hall floorings, running tracks, sports facilities, playgrounds, kindergartens, park walkway and pavements.

A patient securing overlay is provided that includes a sheet of fabric for supporting a patient's torso on a surgical table. The sheet of fabric has an upper surface configured to face the patient and a lower surface configured to face a surgical table mattress or underbody support. The sheet of fabric includes friction enhancing elements applied to at least a portion of the upper surface thereof. The sheet of fabric can include an extension at a foot end of the sheet of fabric that provides material to be tucked under a foot end of the surgical table mattress or underbody support for securing the foot end of the sheet of fabric to the surgical table mattress or underbody support. The extension can include one or more friction enhancing elements.

The disclosure provides an interior trim part for a motor vehicle having a sliding or panoramic roof comprising a headliner and a stiffening frame attached to the headliner and enclosing and stabilizing an opening in the headliner enclosing the sliding or panoramic window, the stiffening frame being made of a fiber-reinforced composite material comprising a fiber mat and a textile lattice material, the textile lattice material being applied over a surface of the fiber mat and impregnated together therewith.

A real wood sheet capable of being used for automatic wrapping, the real wood sheet including a wood layer; a mesh layer disposed on a surface of the wood layer; and a flexible layer disposed on a surface of the mesh layer such that the mesh layer is disposed between the wood layer and the flexible layer.

The present disclosure is directed to a physically crosslinked, closed cell continuous multilayer foam structure comprising at least one foam polypropylene/polyethylene layer with a KEE cap layer. The multilayer foam structure can be obtained by coextruding a multilayer structure comprising at least one foam layer composition layer with at least one cap layer composition layer, irradiating the coextruded structure with ionizing radiation, and continuously foaming the irradiated structure.

A skin-covered interior trim pad according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes a main portion, eaves portion 39 extending out from an outer edge of the main portion, and skin 36 covering the main portion and eaves portion 36, in which: skin 36 includes end edge portion 36d curving along an end portion of eaves portion 39, eaves-front-surface portion 36a covering front surface 39b of eaves portion 39 on a side of front surface 39b of eaves portion 39, and eaves-back-surface portion 36b which extends on a side of back surface 39c of eaves portion 39 toward the outer edge to cover back surface 39c of eaves portion 39, eaves-back-surface portion 36b having the same thermal shrinkage rate as the eaves-front-surface portion, and eaves-front-surface portion 36a being located across end edge portion 36d from eaves-back-surface portion 36b.

The invention relates to a padding for a motor vehicle seat having a sheet for measuring multizone pressure. The sheet has a flexible support layer, with a first electrode having first contact elements, a second electrode having second contact elements and a plurality of intermediate contact elements having piezoresistive properties, each of the intermediate elements being inserted between a first and a second element to form a plurality of pressure sensors. The support layer is made of mesh. The first electrode is made from conductive ink printed on the support layer. The second electrode is made from printed conductive ink, and the intermediate contact elements are made from printed conductive ink with less conductivity than the inks of the electrodes.

This disclosure includes high-temperature, thermally-insulative laminates, Some laminates have a front surface, a back surface, one or more heat-dispersing layers, each comprising at least 90% by weight of: a metal having a melting point of at least 1,300° C. and a thermal conductivity of at least 15 W/Km; or graphite, and one or more heat-insulating layers coupled to the heat-dispersing layer(s), the heat-insulating layer(s) each including a layer of polymeric aerogel, wherein at least a majority of the front surface is defined by one of the heat-dispersing layer(s).

A floor panel for forming a floor covering comprises a substrate consisting of at least two substrate layers differing in density and, on at least one pair of opposite edges, is provided with coupling parts of the so-called push-lock type. Vertically active locking surfaces, where they cooperate in the coupled condition of two of such floor panels, define a tangent line which is horizontal or does not deviate more than 50 degrees from the horizontal. The locking surfaces are situated closer to the upper side of the first substrate layer than to the lower side of the first substrate layer.
