Abstract: The present invention provides an assembly comprising a thermally conductive thermoplastic polymer as a heat sink to provide thermal management for an electrical/electronic component and a reaction injection molded (RIM) polyurethane to replace the potting compound typically used in such assemblies. In addition to replacing the potting compound, the cured polyurethane forms the part, such as the base of the LED bulb, which heretofore has been a separate component, thus reducing the number of components and saving a production step.

Abstract: The present invention provides high security polycarbonate laminates integrated with insulated glazing units (IGU) to produce high security windows. The laminate comprises at least nine layers, in the following order: (i) an insulated glazing unit; (ii) a thermoplastic polyurethane; (iii) a polycarbonate; (iv) a thermoplastic polyurethane; (v) a polycarbonate; (vi) a thermoplastic polyurethane; (vii) a glass; (viii) a thermoplastic polyurethane; and (ix) a polycarbonate. A frame may surround and overbite the laminate. An array of framed laminates may be arranged such that one framed laminate may be removed, without removing an adjacent laminate.

Abstract: Weather resistant composite articles which have a smooth, bubble-free surface and are sufficiently puncture resistant to pass the DynaTup Instrument Impact Test and have sufficient structural integrity and strength characteristics are produced by an open pour process. These composites include a polyurethane, unreinforced barrier coat and a fiber-reinforced polyurethane layer. These composite articles are particularly useful for the production of doors and panels and as structural components for spas, hot tubs, above ground pools and the like.
