Composition of matter for the production of simulated stone, masonry, and brick textured products. Exemplary embodiments of panels, wall structures, and other products may have contoured and textured surfaces and may simulate the appearances of conventional building or construction materials including, but not limited to, stone, bricks, masonry, concrete, stucco, wood, or other conventional building materials, and combinations of any of these materials are disclosed. The disclosed invention is not limited to products in the building or construction industries and may be applied in the manufacture of a wide variety of products in other industries.

Composition of matter

The present invention is a component having a synthetic wood layer that is secured to a foamed polymer layer. The foamed polymer layer is comprised of a polymer selected from the group consisting of high density polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, low density polyethylene, chlorinated polyvinyl chloride, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, ethyl-vinyl acetate, and polystyrene. The component can be used for a variety of different purposes such as fencing, furniture, cabinets, storage devices, lawn edging, flower boxes, flooring, roofing, wall covering, building siding, basement flooring, basement wall covering, interior and exterior decorative house moldings, crown moldings, chair rails, picture frames, porch decks, deck railings, window moldings, window components, door components, door moldings, various other lawn and garden uses, various other below grade uses, and various other indoor and outdoor uses.

Synthetic wood component having a foamed polymer backing

A scroll member for scroll compressor contains a phenol aralkyl resin and a glass fiber and has feature that the dimensional change rate of the member is 0.05% or below under a chemical stability test condition conducted in an atmosphere in which a refrigerant and a refrigerating machine oil coexist at a high temperature and a high pressure, thereby making the resin scroll member practical and chemically stable. The scroll member may further contain a phenol resin and/or glass beads. The scroll member may be formed by a heat treatment having stepwise temperature increase of a molded material from an initial temperature range of 120 to 140&deg; C. to a final temperature range of 170 to 177&deg; C. The heat treatment can be implemented sequentially, e.g., for four hours or more at a temperature range of 120 to 140&deg; C., for four hours or more at a temperature range of 140 to 170&deg; C., and for four hours or more at a temperature range of 170 to 177&deg; C.
