Improved containment mats and systems of containment mats may include multiple adjoining mats with a top surface and a bottom surface. The multiple mats may provide a modular structural mat system that may be installed at a drill site, with multiple mats placed adjacent to each other with a lap joint connecting adjacent mats. A geotextile may be used to cover the lap joints and a coating applied to the geotextile. Such a system may provide containment of potential spills, a reliable working surface for drilling operations, and relatively fast and less expensive installation.

There is provided a thin glass elongated body that can be prevented from being broken when subjected to processing or treatment by a roll-to-roll process. A thin glass elongated body of the present invention includes: a main body that includes an elongated thin glass; and a handling section that includes tough films connected to both ends of the main body in a length direction of the main body.

This invention relates to a printed textile substrate, such as a floorcovering article, and a process for making a printed textile substrate. The printed textile substrate contains areas of low viscosity printing ink and high viscosity printing ink. The process for making the textile substrate includes a one pass manufacturing step that results in a textile substrate having areas of low viscosity and high viscosity printing inks.

A fabric processing method and component (e.g., a vehicle component) includes providing and/or arranging a first fabric charge and a second fabric charge. A multi-piece fabric assembly is formed for single stage draping by stitching together the first and second fabric charges along a neutral stitching path. The multi-piece fabric assembly is formed into a three-dimensional shape and is then impregnated with a polymeric material to form the component.

A method of producing a sandwich panel core of mineral wool fibres from a cured mineral fibre product includes the steps of providing a cured mineral fibre product with a dual density having a top layer with mineral fibres with a first density and a base layer having mineral fibres with a second density, the second density is at least two times lower than said first density. The top layer and the base layer have different fibre orientations. Further steps including cutting the mineral fibre product into a plurality of lamellae, rotating the lamellae 90 degrees, and re-joining the lamellae so that the top layers with the first density are vertically oriented.

Reinforcement element for being positioned within a cast to elastically withstand tensile loads thereon, said reinforcement element comprising a plane sheet- or plate-shaped body of at least one row of consecutively coupled ring-shaped portions.

A semi product for building panels or structural elements comprising several wood lamellas (5) fixed by distance elements (4), a building panel with such a semi product and a method of producing the semi product and the building panel. A method of producing a semi-product for a structural element or for a core for a building panel, wherein the method comprises the step of: attaching at least two distance strips by an adhesive to a first wood board; attaching a second wood board to the distance strips by an adhesive; and cutting the first and the second wood boards and the distance strips in the length direction of the wood boards.

Improved containment mats and systems of containment mats may include multiple adjoining mats with a top surface and a bottom surface. The multiple mats may provide a modular structural mat system that may be installed at a drill site, with multiple mats placed adjacent to each other with a lap joint connecting adjacent mats. A geotextile may be used to cover the lap joints and a coating applied to the geotextile. Such a system may provide containment of potential spills, a reliable working surface for drilling operations, and relatively fast and less expensive installation.
