The invention provides an anisotropic conductive adhesive film and an electronic device. The anisotropic conductive adhesive film comprises a base film and microcapsule structures, wherein the microcapsule structures are set on the base film, and each of the microcapsule structures comprises a metallic conductive particle, a normal-temperature curable macromolecular polymer coated on the outside of the metallic conductive particle and a microcapsule wall coated on the outside of the macromolecular polymer, and an adhesive glue is adhered to the external surface of the microcapsule wall. When in use, the microcapsule structure is destroyed by pressurizing, the conductive particle and the normal-temperature curable macromolecular polymer contained inside the microcapsule wall leak out, and the normal-temperature curable macromolecular polymer leaked out is cured, so that electrical conduction and connection of a microelectronic apparatus can be achieved at normal temperature via the anisotropic conductive adhesive film.

A three dimensional retroreflective article having an outer surface with a reflectivity of at least about 200 lux, and method for making such an article from a thermoformable laminate is provided. The laminate includes a base layer of thermoformable plastic sheet material; and a layer of microbeads configured in a high-density arrangement and silvered on their bottom sides to enhance retroreflectivity. The microbeads are adhered to an outer surface of the base layer by a thermoformable cushion coat which may include a phosphorescent pigment to further enhance reflectivity. A protective sheet of transparent thermoformable sheet material overlies and may be in contact with the layer of microbeads. The laminate is heated and thermoformed into a self supporting three dimensional article having a pre-selected shape and an encapsulated bead retroreflective surface having a reflectivity of at least about 200 lux. The thermoforming step imparts sufficient non-planarity in the resulting retroreflective surface so that retroreflective dead spots created by contact between the microbeads and the protective sheet of transparent sheet material are effectively optically cancelled by overlapping zones of retroreflectivity generated by the microbeads.
