Abstract: Disclosed is a method for producing a releasable seal with a sealing compound between two fairing parts, in particular between two fairing parts for the wing-fuselage fillet of aircraft, including the steps of applying adhesive strips to respectively opposite edges, of the fairing parts and outer surfaces adjacent to them of the fairing parts; filling a sealing joint extending between the opposite edges with the sealing compound; and removing the adhesive strips after the curing of the sealing compound. This makes it possible to provide a re-releasable seal with a sealing compound which is curable or cures on its own in air between two fairing parts without the use of release agents. Also disclosed is the use of adhesive strips for carrying out this method.

Abstract: Diapers are made with substantial reduction of waste using a composite web of diaper main body material having a liquid impervious outer layer, a liquid pervious inner layer and an absorbent intermediate layer there between. The composite web has an indeterminate longitudinal extent substantially intact and uncut with parallel lateral side edge margins for substantially the entire web length. An independent web of diaper tab material is cut into discrete tab sections of predetermined mating shapes with substantially no unused waste material.
