Abstract: A polygonal sheet and a 3D structure formed therefrom, the polygonal sheet having a shape of an annulus sector comprising a first row and a second row, each comprising at least three panels. The 3D structure is formed by folding the sheet along the articulation between the first row and the second row, giving rise to a ridge when in an erect configuration.

Abstract: An adhesive strip can adhere to objects and to a surface such as a surface in a vehicle passenger compartment to support the object within reach of the passengers. The adhesive strip is removable from the surface and provides a mechanism for folding the adhesive back so that the adhesive is covered and not free to attach unintentionally to objects or surfaces after removal from the initial surface. A method for using the strip allows the strip to be used to adhere objects to surfaces and then avoid adhering unintentionally after removal to other objects and surfaces. A method for making the adhesive strips is provided. A device for making the adhesive strips is provided.

Abstract: A rolling textile protective system for textile structural members includes n number of concentric sleeves having void spaces therebetween. N number of concentric sleeves includes an inner sleeve, a middle sleeve, and an outer sleeve. The outer sleeve is a polytetrafluoroethylene cloth layer. A first fiberglass cloth layer is adjacent to the polytetrafluoroethylene cloth layer. A polybenzimidazole cloth layer is adjacent to the fiberglass cloth layer. A para-aramid synthetic fibrous cloth layer is adjacent to the polybenzimidazole cloth layer. A second fiberglass cloth layer is adjacent to the para-aramid synthetic fibrous cloth layer. The polytetrafluoroethylene cloth layer, the first fiberglass cloth layer, the polybenzimidazole cloth layer, the para-aramid synthetic fibrous cloth layer, and the second fiberglass cloth layer are stitched together.

Abstract: A micro-truss based composite friction-and-wear apparatus with a three-dimensional ordered microstructure and a method creating the same. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a filler material and a three-dimensional ordered microstructure. The three-dimensional ordered microstructure includes a plurality of first truss elements defined by a plurality of first self-propagating polymer waveguides and extending along a first direction; a plurality of second truss elements defined by a plurality of second self-propagating polymer waveguides and extending along a second direction; and a plurality of third truss elements defined by a plurality of third self-propagating polymer waveguides and extending along a third direction.

Abstract: A resin member fitting structure including a first resin member, which is a rectangular hollow tube, has at least one inner wall surface. A second resin member, which is a hollow or solid rectangular tube, has at least one outer wall surface fitted to the at least one inner wall surface of the first resin member. The inner wall surface of the first resin member and the outer wall surface of the second resin member come into contact with each other and define at least one set of fitting surfaces. The second resin member has a hygroscopic expansion coefficient that is smaller than that of the first resin member. The at least one fitting surface includes a plurality of recess-projection engagement structures spaced apart from each other in a circumferential direction that intersects a longitudinal direction of the first and second resin members.

Abstract: Cyclodextrin compositions including one or more radiation polymerizable monomers and a cyclodextrin inclusion complex, the cyclodextrin inclusion complex including a cyclodextrin compound and an olefinic inhibitor of an ethylene generation in produce, are coated onto packaging materials and cured. Treated containers and treated package inserts having the cured cyclodextrin compositions are useful in packaging of respiring plant materials.

Abstract: To provide an acrylic rubber composition having an excellent heat resistance, especially an excellent balance between the residual ratio of the tensile strength and the residual ratio of the elongation after heat aging, when formed into a vulcanized product, and a hose article, a sealing article and a rubber vibration insulator using the acrylic rubber composition. An acrylic rubber composition containing an acrylic rubber obtainable by copolymerizing 100 parts by mass of an alkyl acrylate with from 10 to 100 parts by mass of an alkyl methacrylate and from 0.5 to 4 parts by mass of a crosslinkable monomer. Here, the alkyl methacrylate is preferably at least one compound selected from the group consisting of methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate and n-butyl methacrylate, and the alkyl acrylate is preferably at least one compound selected from the group consisting of methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate and n-butyl acrylate.

Abstract: An injection mold 70 includes a first portion 71, a second portion 72, a third portion 73, and a fourth portion 79. The first portion 71 has three high-density regions H in which there is the highest proportion of the axial direction dimension accounted for by the portion corresponding to cam grooves with respect to the axial direction dimension of a cavity 71a. First gates 74b are disposed at locations corresponding to the high-density regions H, or closer to the high-density regions H than second gates 75b. The average channel sectional area of first runners 74a is larger than the average channel sectional area of second runners 75a.
