Abstract: Blackened layers 23A and 23B are formed by depositing Cu—Co alloy particles on the surfaces of a metal layer 21. The metal layer 21 coated with the blackened layers 23A and 23B of the Cu—Co alloy particles is subjected to a chromating process to form density-intensifying layers 25A and 25B on the blackened layers 23A and 23B. A base 11 is laminated to the density-intensifying layer 25A or 25B. A conductive structure 109 consisting of the meal layer 21, the blackened layers 23A and 23B, and the density-intensifying layers 25A and 25B is processed by a photolithographic process to complete an electromagnetic shielding sheet 1 having a mesh conductive structure.

Abstract: A silver salt-containing layer containing a silver salt and provided on a support is exposed and developed to form a metal silver portion and a light-transmitting portion, and then the metal silver portion is further subjected to physical development and/or plating to form a conductive metal portion consisting of the metal silver portion carrying conductive metal particles. A method for producing a light-transmitting electromagnetic wave-shielding film which enables production of an electromagnetic wave-shielding material simultaneously having high EMI-shielding property and high transparency in a fine line pattern and also enables mass production of such films at a low cost, and a light-transmitting electromagnetic wave-shielding film obtained by the production method and free from the problem of moire are provided.

Abstract: Fire resistant safety glasses are provided that included wire glasses having another layer of fire resistant material. In certain embodiments, a piece of wire glass has a sheet of fire resistant film adhered thereto. Such glasses have improved impact resistance compared to conventional wire glasses. Fire resistant safety glasses are also provided that combine improved impact resistance and fire protection and in some embodiments, improved thermal insulation, improved reflectivity and shielding against ionizing radiation. Safety glasses of this invention can be made using non-tempered or tempered glass, fire resistant plastics, fire resistant fiberglass, ceramics and other fire resistant glazing materials, and can be made in multiple layers, having one or more pieces of wire glass or fire resistant glazing materials. Fire resistant safety glasses of this invention can be made inexpensively and can have improved properties compared to conventional wire glass.

Abstract: A flat composite fabric is provided by incorporating wire made of memory metal, or made of an alloy possessing shape memory properties into a flat fabric. By means of appropriate heating and cooling, e. g. electric heating, the composite fabric is contracted and released thereby providing a massaging effect.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composite material having a substrate, which contains at least one fiber layer, and a cover layer, which adjoins the substrate and which, at least adjacent to the at least one fiber layer, contains metallic fibers and/or threads. The at least one fiber layer of the substrate and the metallic fibers and/or threads of the cover layer being saturated with binder and, as a result, the substrate and the cover layer are formed together or connected. Metallic, ceramic or glass-type particles are embedded in the cover layer in the area of the metallic fibers and/or threads. Preferably, the particles may be one or more or a combination of TiC, TiN, TiAl, Fe, steel, Ni, Si, metal alloys, diamond, or glass. In addition, the invention provides a process for manufacturing a composite material and articles of manufacture comprising the composite material, especially for rotor blades or propellers.

Abstract: An electromagnetic radiation shield material and an electromagnetic radiation shield panel suitable for placement in front of a display device to enable a viewer to see images displayed on the display device through the plate or panel while shielding the viewer from electromagnetic radiation and methods of producing the material and the panel are provided. The electromagnetic radiation shield material comprises at least a mesh-like metallic foil layer, a black resin portion of identical mesh-like pattern to the metallic foil layer and in aligned contact therewith, and a transparent base material. The electromagnetic radiation shield panel comprises a laminated composite of the electromagnetic radiation shield material and a display panel or a transparent base plate and is constituted so that the metallic foil layer is on the side facing the display device and the black resin portion is located outward of the metallic foil layer.

Abstract: An electromagnetic-wave shielding and light transmitting plate suitable for an electromagnetic-wave shielding filter for a PDP, which has good electromagnetic-wave shielding efficiency and light transparency, can provide distinct pictures, and can yet be easily made, is provided. The electromagnetic-wave shielding and light transmitting plate is formed of two transparent base plates and an adhesive layer made of EVA in which conductive particles are dispersed and mixed. The base plates are integrally bonded together by the adhesive layer. Adjusting the particle size and the dispersed amount of the conductive particles enables the manufacture of plates having desired electromagnetic-wave shielding efficiency, in addition, good light transparency, without moire phenomenon. Using an adhesive sheet formed by mixing the conductive particles into the EVA facilitates the manufacture of the aforementioned plate.
