A mirror, and method of making same, is disclosed. The mirror includes a metallic base material having a low coefficient of thermal expansion, an intermediate layer bonded to the base by a plasma spray process and a reflecting surface overlying the intermediate layer, the coefficients of thermal expansion of the materials of the intermediate layer and the reflecting surface differing from each other and from the coefficient of thermal expansion of the base material.

Laminated glass has sheets of plate glass with a bonding layer intervening therebetween for integration. The bonding layer is formed of a resin composition comprising (A) a terpolymer of ethylene, vinyl acetate, and an acrylate and/or methacrylate monomer, (B) a terpolymer of ethylene, vinyl acetate, and maleic acid and/or maleic anhydride, (C) a terpolymer of ethylene, an acrylate and/or methacrylate monomer, and maleic acid and/or maleic anhydride or (D) an ionomer resin in the form of an ethy...

A container is provided with grip enhancing protrusions of various shapes and sizes, which are raised and integrally formed on the container. The surface provides protrusions to enhance the ornamentation. The container is formed of two body portions which are laminated. The first body portion is of a flexible material which could formed of aluminum or plastic, and protrudes through protrusions provided in the second body portion which could be formed of a more solid material. The second body por...

A laminated adapter provides electrical interconnection between electrical bond pads on a vertical surface of a head slider with electrical trace interconnects adhesively bonded to a horizontal surface of the adapter, opposite to the surface to which the head slider is to be attached. Electrical connection from the electrical bond pads on a vertical face of the head slider to the electrical trace interconnects on the laminated adapter is provided by means such as electrically conductive welds. E...

A laminated anode including a layer of sacrificial metal and a layer of impermeable material. The laminated anode is utilized to protect a metal mold from corrosion where the mold is used for processing a corrosive meat material.

Laminated cushion formed of a plurality of alternating, relatively rigid and relatively soft layers of resilient foam has a higher compression rate in the direction of an axis parallel to the planes of the layers than in the transverse direction. Thus, when the cushion is positioned with the planes of the layers arranged vertically, the cushion is usable as an armrest. When it is positioned with the planes of the layers arranged horizontally, it is usable as a pillow. In a modification, the cush...

A connector is disclosed which is made from a plurality of electrical contacts, each of which is a resilient spring, spaced along a continuous web of insulative material which serves to locate the contacts in desired positions and provides an insulation back or cover for the contacts. The method and apparatus for making the subject laminated connector is also disclosed. The plurality of contacts are first formed from a continuous strip of metal, an insulative web is laminated to the metal contac...

A laminated film comprising a base film and a layer which contains an inorganic layered compound and a resin and is formed by gravure coating a coating fluid comprising the inorganic layered compound and the resin under the conditions satisfying the following equation: wherein G is a rotational speed of a gravure roll (m/min.), B is a rotational speed of a backing roll (m/min.) and GM is a mesh number of a gravure roll, which film has good transparency and gas barrier properties.

The present invention provides a laminated glass. Each single glass sheet has a thickness of 1.5 to 3.2 mm and is subjected to a bending process. At least one of the glass sheets is a semi-tempered glass sheet, which is also called a heat-strengthened glass sheet. The heat-strengthened glass sheet has a plane residual stress distribution where the plane residual stress is a compressive stress at an edge of a peripheral portion of the glass sheet. The plane residual stress changes monotonically f...

A laminated film comprising (A) an aromatic polyester film; and (B) a hydrophilic coating layer which is present on at least one side of the aromatic polyester film (A) and has a surface energy of at least 54 dyne/cm, the coating layer comprising (a) 50 to 80% by weight of a copolyester which contains a dicarboxylic acid component having a sulfonate group in an amount of 1 to 16 mol % of the total of all dicarboxylic acid components and has a secondary transition point of 20 to 90.degree. C., (b...
