A multi-layer composition to be located onto a substrate. The composition comprises a bi-layer construction, including a first layer and a second layer, the first layer having a high elastic modulus and tensile strength in comparison to the second layer. The second layer includes a blowing agent such that, when cured, the first layer is spaced away from the substrate. The compositions of the first layer and second layer are similar, thus enabling the reconstitution of scrap into usable material for forming another multi-layer reinforcement.

This adhesive tape is characterized by comprising: a plurality of fibers; and binding resin mixed with the plurality of fibers, wherein the fibers are arranged side-by-side in a first direction and extend longitudinally in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The adhesive tape stretches elastically in a horizontal direction while reliably supporting a flexible display unit, and thus can deform according to the bending deflection of the flexible display unit. Therefore, the adhesive tape can reliably maintain a coupled state with a support frame that supports the rear surface of the flexible display unit.

Provided is a method of producing a thin glass resin laminate piece, which includes cutting a thin glass resin laminate through laser processing, and by which a thin glass resin laminate piece capable of preventing the occurrence of air bubbles when bonded to an adherend can be obtained. The method of producing a thin glass resin laminate piece of the present invention includes a step of subjecting a thin glass resin laminate including a thin glass, a resin layer, and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer in the stated order to laser processing to cut the laminate, wherein a thickness (μm) of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and a creep characteristic (μm/Hr) of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer have a relationship of (thickness (μm)).sup.2×creep characteristic (μm/Hr)≥50×10.sup.3 (μm.sup.2.Math.μm/Hr).

A novel engineered wood product and method of making same that withstands the stresses, both natural and man-made, that cause warp, twist and bow.

A method for fabricating, and curing, nanocomposite adhesives including introducing nanoheater elements into a heat-curing adhesive to fabricate a nanocomposite adhesive, and providing a radio-frequency (RF) electromagnetic wave to the nanocomposite adhesive to heat, and cure the nanocomposite adhesive. The nanocomposite adhesive is physically applied to first and second materials to bond the first and second materials upon curing of the nanocomposite adhesive, and the RF electromagnetic wave has a frequency in the radio-frequency range, having energy that is transferred to the nanoheater elements by electromagnetic wave interactions with permanent and induced dipoles, intrinsic photon-phonon interaction, or interactions with nanoheater defects and grain structures.

A novel engineered wood product and method of making same that withstands the stresses, both natural and man-made, that cause warp, twist and bow.

The present invention relates to a method for connecting two joining elements, these elements being connected by means of a thermally activatable adhesive with a flat heating element arranged therein, by suitable heating of the adhesive. The invention also relates to an assembly produced in this way from two joining elements and to an arrangement designed for carrying out a corresponding method.

A heat-resistant weld backing tape for placement between a backing member and a workpiece to be welded at a root gap. The weld backing tape includes a flexible tape substrate. The tape substrate has a longitudinal length that extends between first and second tape substrate ends, and a lateral width that extends between first and second tape substrate side edges. The tape substrate has a substantially planar first face and a substantially planar second face. The first and second tape substrate faces are mutually parallel and spaced from each other by a tape substrate thickness. The tape substrate length and the tape substrate width are substantially larger than the tape substrate thickness. A heat-resistant material is disposed on the first tape substrate face and arranged to face the workpiece during welding. An adhesive material is disposed on the second tape substrate face and arranged to face the backing member during welding.

A method of manufacturing an article of jewelry with a druzy or geode effect, the method including: forming an adhesion mixture by mixing metal particles with a silica, shell, and/or clay with polymer, optionally in a liquid to form an adhesion paste; applying the adhesion mixture to an article of jewelry; applying a plurality of gemstones to the applied adhesion mixture to form a gemstone layer; melting the adhesion mixture without significantly melting the article of jewelry; and cooling the adhesion mixture to bond the gemstone layer to the article of jewelry.

The present invention concerns a self-adhesive water vapour-permeable membrane comprising at least one water vapour-permeable support and a pressure-sensitive, sensitive to pressure, water vapour-permeable, and integral with the lower face of said support. Said membrane is noteworthy in that it comprises a grid included totally or partially in the adhesive layer and in that it comprises air bubbles confined between the meshes of the grid which favour the penetration and the diffusion of the water vapour molecules. Another subject matter of the invention concerns a method for producing such a membrane.
