Abstract: A sheet of thermoplastic material and the manufacturing process thereof by block processing is disclosed, wherein the material is a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) based on aliphatic polyethers or aliphatic polyesters, without addition of process solvents and/or plasticisers.

Abstract: A manufacturing process and the semi-finished product of thermoplastic material obtained therefrom, for obtaining products with aesthetic patterns which can be perceived in semitransparency also in depth is disclosed. The process includes: (i) producing at least two initial elements of thermoplastic material with even but different aesthetic patterns, having a different concentration of the dominating coloring, at least the dominating coloring being of the bleeding type in the specific thermoplastic material; (ii) shaping the two initial elements into strips or loaves being of a submultiple width, not below ? of a characteristic dimension of the desired finished product; (iii) inserting at least two of the strips or loaves having different concentration of the dominating coloring, into a workform, arranging them side by side according to a direction of side-by-side arrangement; and (iv) undergoing pressure and heat to allow the melting and hardening of the thermoplastic material into a single body.

Abstract: A plastic material based on cellulose acetate, including at least one plasticizer, in which the plasticizer includes a mixture of a first plasticizer including citric acid esters and at least one second plasticizer selected from the group of organic phosphates, glycerol esters and trimellitic acid esters, the content of the first plasticizer being equal to or greater than the second plasticizer and the aforementioned mixture of plasticizers constituting overall 25-35% by weight of the plastic material.
