Abstract:
A transparent article includes a continuous polyester matrix having at least one incompatible filler dispersed therein. The incompatible filler provides domains in the polyester matrix, each domain having a particular dimension, thus providing a range of dimensions for the domains in the article. To create haze, the dimensions are within the range of from about 380 nm to about 720 nm. Once the range of dimensions is determined, a light absorbent composition can be found which absorbs light at a range of wavelengths that at least substantially covers the range of dimensions of the domains. In doing so, it has been found that the haze of the article can be substantially masked. Method for producing the article and for masking the haze are also provided.
Abstract:
A colored polyimide film includes a polyimide polymer obtained by reacting diamine monomers with dianhydride monomers, wherein the diamine monomers are oxydianiline (ODA) and phenylene diamine (PDA) monomers, and the dianhydride monomers are pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA); a matting agent comprised of polyimide particles; and one or more color pigment. The polyimide films described herein have low gloss, low transparency, and low coefficient of thermal expansion.

Abstract:
Described herein are pressure sensitive adhesive type of wavelength conversion tapes that are easy-to-apply to a solar harvesting device using an adhesive layer. The pressure sensitive adhesive type of wavelength conversion tape comprises a pressure sensitive adhesive layer, wherein the pressure sensitive adhesive layer comprises one, or multiple, luminescent dyes that convert photons of a particular wavelength to a different more desirable wavelength. The adhesive layer is designed to adhere to the light incident surface of a solar harvesting device such as a solar cell, solar panel, or photovoltaic device, to improve the efficiency of the device.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to dark multilayer bodies made from polycarbonate, which are characterised by a glass-like deep-gloss effect on the surface. The invention also relates to a method for producing these multilayer bodies. The multilayer bodies are preferably synthesised from polycarbonate or polycarbonate blends. The polycarbonate blends can contain further polymers such as for example elastomers or graft polymers, or further thermoplastics such as polyesters for example. The invention also relates to the use of the multilayer bodies according to the invention as panels for vehicle parts or as frame parts for multimedia housings.
