Abstract:
A ceiling system includes a ceiling support structure supporting a plurality of ceiling panels, each ceiling panel including a core layer having a top surface facing a first interior space above the ceiling panels, a bottom surface facing a second interior space below the ceiling panels, and a plurality of peripheral edges extending between the top and bottom surfaces. A top frame layer extends from the top surface and a thermal layer is on the top frame layer opposite the top surface. The thermal layer has a first surface facing away from the top frame layer and a second surface facing toward the top frame layer. The top frame layer supports the second surface in a spaced-apart manner from the top surface to form one or more air gaps between the top surface and the second surface. The first and second surfaces have a thermal emissivity of 0.5 or less.
Abstract:
A wrappable protective sleeve (10) for providing protection to an elongate member (12) contained therein and method of construction thereof is provided. The sleeve (10) includes a textile wall (14) having opposite edges (16, 18) extending lengthwise along a longitudinal axis (20) between opposite ends (22, 24). The edges (16, 18) are wrappable to overlap one another to form an enclosed cavity (25). At least one reinforcement rib (26) extends along at least a portion of the wall (14). The at least one reinforcement rib (26) is formed of material fused and bonded on and/or in the wall (14).

The at least one groove contains at least one reinforcing element, where the reinforcing element contains a matrix material having a transition temperature of at least about 120°C and a plurality of fibers having a tensile strength of at least about 1000 MPa. The groove also contains a binder comprising an inorganic material and is incombustible.
Abstract:
Substrates for electronic device fabrication and methods thereof. A reusable substrate with at least a plurality of grooves for electronic device fabrication includes a substrate body made of one or more substrate materials and including a top planar surface, the top planar surface being divided into a plurality of planer regions by the plurality of grooves, the plurality of grooves including a plurality of bottom planar surfaces. Each of the plurality of grooves includes a bottom planar surface and two side surfaces, the bottom planar surface being selected from the plurality of bottom planar surfaces, the two side surfaces being in contact with the top surface and the bottom surface. The bottom planar surface is associated with a groove width from one of the two side surfaces to the other of the two side surfaces, the groove width ranging from 0.1 μm to 5 mm.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a dental mill blank comprising a pre-sintered porous zirconia material, the porous pre-sintered zirconia material showing a N2 adsorption of isotherm type IV according to IUPAC classification, the porous pre-sintered zirconia material having a Vickers hardness from about 25 to about 150, the dental mill blank comprising means for reversible attaching it to a machining device. The invention also relates to a process of producing a zirconia dental article comprising the steps of providing a dental mill blank comprising a porous pre-sintered zirconia material, placing the dental mill blank in a machining device, machining the porous zirconia material and to a dental article obtained by such a process.
Abstract:
Methods of increasing the perceived thickness and strength of a thermoplastic film include incrementally stretching thermoplastic films in the machine direction. In one or more implementations, methods of incrementally stretching thermoplastic films include reducing the gauge of the films while increasing a loft of at least a portion of the film. The methods can involve cold stretching the films and imparting rib patterns and alternating peaks and valleys into the film. The linear ribs can have alternating thick and thin gauges.

Abstract:
In a rubber-coated fabric, a plurality of warp cords is included with a spacing d between, sides of adjacent warp cords, each of the warp cords being coated with a layer of rubber compound, A cut line may further be included thai separates groups of the warp cords, each group having a predetermined number of the warp cords. The cut line, may be formed by between 2 and 6 adjacent cut line warp cords, wherein a distance dc, between any two sides of adjacent cut Hue warp cords may be no.more than. 50 % of d. The layer of rubber compound that coats- the rubber-coated fabric is thin enough to outline the cut line on a surface of the rubber- coated woven fabric.
