20090163663 | METHOD OF PREPARING THERMOPLASTIC POLYURETHANE BLENDS - A method of preparing TPU blend is disclosed. In particular, a method of preparing an TPU blend comprising extruding a mixture of a thermoplastic polyurethane, a polyolefin copolymer blend and an amine-modified polypropylene compatibilizer is disclosed. The resulting TPU blend provides an elastomeric material with significantly less TPU but which retains the elastomeric and mechanical properties of a TPU. | 06-25-2009 |
20090126858 | METHOD OF APPLYING A FILM TO AN ENDLESS MOVING HANDRAIL HAVING A LAYER WITH A BARRIER COATING - A method of applying a film to an endless moving handrail comprises the steps of adhering a first film layer, having sufficient resilience to accommodate strains occurring on the surfaces of the endless moving handrail and including a barrier coating on at least one of top and bottom surfaces of the first layer, to a top surface of an endless moving handrail, and adhering a substantially transparent film layer over the first film layer. | 05-21-2009 |
20090123715 | ELASTIC AND RESILIENT FILM HAVING A BARRIER LAYER - An elastic and resilient film for application to an endless moving handrail includes a first film layer having a top surface and a bottom surface and further including one or more materials selected from Thermoplastic Olefin (TPO), Thermoplastic Elastormer (TPE), Thermoplastic Ionomer Resins, metallized Thermoplastic Polyurethane, Thermoplastic Vulcanizate (TPV), Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF), and Thermoplastic Polyurethane/Polyolefin blends, wherein a first adhesive is on a bottom surface of the first film layer, an optional second film layer has a top surface and a bottom surface, with print applied to the top surface of the first film layer and an adhesive is on the bottom surface of the second film layer, and a substantially transparent film layer overlying the top surface of the second layer. | 05-14-2009 |
20090120575 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A FILM HAVING A LAYER WITH A BARRIER COATING - A method of manufacturing an elastic and resilient film, to be applied to an endless moving handrail, includes steps of providing a first layer having sufficient resilience to accommodate strains occurring on the surfaces of the endless moving handrail, an adhesive on a bottom surface of the first layer, and a barrier coating on a top surface of the first layer, optionally providing a second layer having sufficient resilience to accommodate strains occurring on the surfaces of the endless moving handrail and an adhesive on a bottom surface of the second layer, providing a substantially transparent layer having an adhesive on a bottom surface thereof, and laminating the first layer, second layer (when present), and substantially transparent layer together. | 05-14-2009 |
