  • Patent number: 11376771
    Abstract: A method relates to manufacturing an in-mold decorative molded product including a transfer layer formed on a surface of an injection-molded product. The method includes inserting, in a first mold for injection molding, an in-mold transfer film including the transfer layer disposed on a base film; forming a molding injection space by mold clamping of the first mold and a second mold including a structure for injecting a molding resin into the molding injection space and a structure for holding the in-mold decorative molded product; and forming the in-mold decorative molded product by filling the molding injection space with the molding resin and then opening the first and second molds. When the base film is separated from the in-mold decorative molded product by opening the first and second molds, a peeling weight varies depending on a portion in an end part of the in-mold decorative molded product.

  • Patent number: 10851965
    Abstract: A resin component includes a natural wooden veneer, a light-transmitting ink printed layer, an adhesive layer, and a light-transmitting reinforcement layer. The veneer includes a sparseness portion and a denseness portion of conduits, is 50% or more and 80% or less in light transmittance, and is 0.1 mm or more and 0.6 mm or less in plate thickness. The light-transmitting ink printed layer is formed on a first surface of the veneer, is 2 ?m or more and 20 ?m or less in thickness, and contains a pigment or a dye. The adhesive layer is formed on a second surface which is an opposite side of the first surface of the veneer. The reinforcement layer is formed on a surface, which is an opposite side of the veneer, of the adhesive layer.

  • Patent number: 5763139
    Abstract: A plasma display panel includes a light-transmittable first substrate, a plurality of first electrodes provided in correspondence with pixels on the first substrate and partition walls provided on the first substrate so that each of the partition walls surrounds at least a part of one of the first electrodes. A Fluorescent layer is formed at a portion surrounded by the partition wall where the first electrode is located in such a manner that the first electrode surrounded by the partition wall is exposed by curing and baking a fluorescent ink having a photo-setting resin and an illuminant as its main ingredients. A light-transmittable second substrate is arranged in contact with the partition wall oppositely to the first substrate, and light-transmittable or opaque second electrodes are arranged on the second substrate oppositely to the first electrodes.
