Abstract: The present invention pertains to privacy film that can be used with documents. The privacy film has a light transmissive, polymeric base sheet that has opposing first and second surfaces. A plurality of light directing elements protrudes from the first surface of the base sheet. The base sheet can be constructed of a first polymeric material. The light directing elements can be constructed of a second polymeric material. The first and second polymeric material may be the same material. The light directing elements are substantially constant in its cross-section dimension and disposed substantially parallel to each other.

Abstract: A mechanical interlocking die has a first surface, a second surface, a plurality of extrusion features, and a plurality of channels. The first surface and the second surface each extend in a longitudinal direction. Each of the extrusion features includes a base portion extending in a cross-sectional plane from the first surface, wherein the cross-sectional plane is substantially normal to the longitudinal direction, and an arm portion extending at an angle in the cross-sectional plane from the base portion. Each channel extends at an angle to the longitudinal direction from the second surface, and is disposed between a pair of extrusion features.

Abstract: Composite articles have two polymeric layers of different compositions bonded together by adhesive and mechanical means.
