    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an antistatic protective film, a display device, and a preparation method of an antistatic protective film. The antistatic protective film comprises: a layer of substrate and a layer of graphene; the substrate and the graphene layer are adhered together. The antistatic protective film in accordance with the embodiment of the present invention, utilizes graphene to protect a component from being scratched by a foreign object or damaged by rubbing, and at the same time allows static electricity on an electronic component to be discharged in time, thus avoids the electronic component from being damaged by static electricity and prolongs the service life of the electronic component; meanwhile, the antistatic protective film has high light-transmittance, which greatly reduces the influence of the antistatic protective film on the output light of the electronic component.

In the case where dicing or the like is performed by performing adsorption fixation to a fixing base with a negative pressure, the occurrence of excessive close adhesion due to, for example, the heat generation of the base can be effectively suppressed. In addition, the non-pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is provided on the base material film, and hence blocking in a roll shape is effectively suppressed, the film for a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape does not tear or break upon its unwinding from the roll shape, conformity between the non-pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the base material film is good, and followability to a deformation such as stretching is good. Also provided is a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape including such film for a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape.

    Abstract: A protective material for acoustic transmission is disclosed which optimizes sound transmission of the material while also providing a barrier from ambient conditions to transducers. The protective material of the disclosure is a self-tensioning membrane with properties such that sound attenuation is minimized as the membrane transfers acoustic energy. In one embodiment, the self-tensioning membrane is used to cover an opening in an electronic device enclosure by securing the entire outer edge of the membrane with an adhesive. Such a construction creates an unbound region where the self-tensioning membrane can effectively transmit sound energy by moving in response to incoming sound waves. The self-tensioning membrane allows sound to travel out of the protective enclosure while also preventing liquid or particulate intrusion.

    Abstract: The present invention refers a thermal insulation waterproofing and adherible film and method for preparing the same, that for its components and physical and chemical characteristics is easy to apply, durable, and with excellent insulation and waterproofing properties. The adherible film of the present invention is manufactured by applying insulating and waterproofing material on a layer of thermoplastic polymer, preferably polyethylene. In present invention were used different thicknesses, such as 1.2, 1.5, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8, 3.0, 3.2, 3.4, 3.6, 3.8, 4.0, 4.2 and 4.4 mm, and according to tests carried out, the preferred modality that comply the requirements is 2.8 to 3.0 millimeters.

  • Publication number: 20140023861
    Abstract: A pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet including a plastic substrate having a thickness of more than 0 ?m and less than 2.0 ?m and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on at least one side of the plastic substrate. The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer contains an acrylic polymer or a rubber-based polymer in an amount of 50 wt % or more relative to a total amount of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. The acrylic polymer is formed of a monomer mixture containing the specific alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer in an amount of 50.0 to 99.8 wt % relative to a total amount of monomer components and a polar group-containing monomer in an amount of 0.01 to 20 wt % relative to the total amount of monomer components.

  • Publication number: 20140023806
    Abstract: A film that is biodegradable and water-sensitive (e.g., water-soluble, water-dispersible, etc.) in that it loses its integrity over time in the presence of water is provided. More specifically, the film contains a combination of a biodegradable polyester and a water-sensitive thermoplastic starch. The desired water-sensitive attributes of film may be achieved in the present invention by selectively controlling a variety of aspects of the film construction, such as the nature of the components employed, the relative amount of each component, the manner in which the film is formed, and so forth.

  • Publication number: 20140017435
    Abstract: A polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (PcBN) is fabricated using a process of overlaying layers of cubic boron nitride (cBN) powder, where the layers have cBN mixed with various concentrations of a ceramic. The process of fabricating the PcBN includes depositing, in a refractory capsule, a carbide, a cubic boron nitride (cBN), and a mixture of cBN and a ceramic, then applying a high pressure and high temperature (HPHT) to the content of the refractory capsule. During the depositing step of the process, the concentration of cBN in the mixture of the cBN and ceramic is lower than the concentration of cBN that is in the layer below it. Upon applying HPHT, the carbide first diffuses across the cBN layer, and then diffuses across the layer with the mixture of the cBN and ceramic. After HPHT ends and the content of the refractory capsule cools, the process yields a PcBN having layers with various concentrations of cBN, and at least one cBN layer with a ceramic material.

  • Publication number: 20140017455
    Abstract: Provided herein are light weight glass laminates having ionomeric interlayers and at least one glass layer. In particular, the weight of the glass laminates is reduced by reducing the thickness of the at least one glass layer to about 2.0 mm or less, or to about 1.5 mm or less. The light weight laminates retain favorable performance properties such as have good Pummel adhesion levels, good moisture resistance, and low stress. Further provided are lightweight glass laminates equipped with integral mounting devices.
