Abstract: Composite materials and structural adhesives containing particles of functionalized polymers as a toughening agent. The particles are composed of functionalized polyaryletherketone (PAEK) polymer or copolymer thereof that contain chemical functional groups capable of reacting with a thermoset resin component to form covalent bonds.

Abstract: A table and object magnifying combination assembly includes a panel that has a top side, a bottom side, a front edge, a rear edge, a first lateral edge and a second lateral edge. The panel has a pair of elongated breaks therein extending between and through the front and rear edges to define an inner section positioned between the elongated breaks. The inner section is rotatably coupled to a remaining portion of the panel. The inner section has an aperture therein extending into the top side and outwardly of the bottom side so that the inner section forms a frame. A magnifying member is positioned within the aperture and is attached to the inner section. A plurality of supports is attached to and extends downwardly from the panel. Objects are viewable through the magnifying member to enlarge a view of the object.
