    Abstract: An extruded composite structural artificial lumber product is manufactured from wood fiber and polyethylene, including recycled polyethylene, by reducing the wood fiber and polyethylene each to a finely divided particles, mechanically mixing the wood fiber and polyethylene particles together with a measured amount of a powdered endothermic foaming agent, mechanically mixing the mixture, without pre-pelletization, in a twin-screw extruder where it is compressed and heated until it becomes plastic and homogenous, and then extruding the plastic mixture, using vacuum to remove vaporized moisture and other excess volatiles, through a molding die which forms structural profile of the desired product. The endothermic foaming agent ingredient causes greater expansion in the center of the extruded profile, thereby compressing a greater proportion of plastic material against the sides of the extrusion die, increasing the density and strength on the outside of the extrusion, and reducing the density (with no significant loss of overall strength) on the inside. The resulting extruded artificial lumber product has a specific gravity of about 1.0, plus or minus 20%, with no significant variation in dimensions after cooling.

    Abstract: A laminated support pad includes layers of material having different density in which voids are formed to extend through at least partial cross-sections of at least two adjacent layers to form regions of the pad having different support characteristics determined by the placement and extent of the voids in the laminated layers. Lamination of a layer of high density material on top of a layer of relatively low density material produces a relatively firm pad having varying degrees of firmness dependent upon the placement and extent of the voids. Conversely, lamination of layer of low density material on a top surface of a layer of relatively high density material produces a relatively soft pad also having varying degrees of firmness dependent upon the placement and extent of the voids. The pad can be cut to conform to conventional mattress sizes, and the regions formed in areas of the pad which correspond to the weight bearing requirements for optimum support of the human body in prone positions.

    Abstract: An optical device having a variable index of refraction across its surface includes a light transmissive material with a plurality of regions in the light transmissive material. Each region has an index of refraction which is different from the remainder of the material. The regions may be arranged in the surface of the material such that the density of the regions on the surface varies across the surface. Each region may be a bore, including a hole that extends through the light transmissive material. Variations in the density of the regions or bores as well as the depth and shape of the bores may be utilized to create variations of the refractive index within the light transmissive material.

    Abstract: The invention provides a peelable laminated structure suitable for use in a peelable seal joining a flexible closure element (23) to a container (20) or in foil/polymer laminates used for packaging and the like. The structure comprises a porous-anodizable metal substrate (11) and a porous anodic film (12) overlying and attached to a surface of the substrate. The porous anodic film (12) has a weakened stratum (19) positioned between an outer film part and an underlying structure including the metal substrate (11). The weakened stratum (19) is strong enough in use of said structure to prevent detachment of the outer film part from the underlying structure, except by deliberate peeling of the flexible closure element (23). The invention also relates to a process for producing the structure and to peelable containers and recyclable laminates incorporating the structure. The structure provides a peeable interface which is not greatly dependent on the characteristics of particular adhesives or bonding techniques used to adhere the metal substrate (11) to the remaining structure, and is thus stable and reliable.
