The invention discloses tread rubber for a large project tire and the large project tire using the tread rubber. The tread rubber for the large project tire consists of (A) tread cap rubber, (B) tread center rubber and (C) tread base rubber. On one hand, the invention adopts rubber matrixes with three different formulas to well solve the problem that an outer layer is easy to overcure if the tread rubber for the large project tire is thick; and on the other hand, the tread rubber prepared by the three formulas of the rubber matrixes can obtain superior equilibrium between abrasion resistance, heat resistance, tear resistance, low heat generation and curing speed.

An absorbent incontinence article (2) has a main part (4) composed of a front area (6) and of a rear area (8) and, lying between these in the longitudinal direction (10), a crotch area (12) that comes to lie between the legs of a user, the main part (4) comprising an absorption body (14), and with mutually separate side portions (16) which are joined to the rear area (8) and/or to the front area (6) on both sides and which extend in the transverse direction (22) across lateral longitudinal edges (20) of the main part (4) and connect the front area (6) and the rear area (8) to each other when the article is applied. To prevent tearing of the side portions, it is proposed that the incontinence article be designed such that the side portions (16) have a reinforcing means (24) which, seen in the transverse direction (22), is designed narrower than a respective side portion (16), and which is provided at least in an area bridging the longitudinal edge (20) of the main part (4), that is to say crosses both a lateral longitudinal edge area of the main part (4) and also a part of the side portion (16) in the transverse direction (22).

The present invention relates to a rubber composition containing a combination of starch, modified starch and/or starch/plasticizer composite together with selected methylene donor and/or methylene acceptor compounds. The invention also relates to tires having at least one component comprised of such rubber composition. Such tire component can be, for example, its circumferential tread or other component of the tire.

A package includes a slide card that is received in an outer sleeve having a false end wall. The false end wall extends between a top wall and a bottom wall to enhance the structural integrity of the outer sleeve. The false end wall provides child resistance in that it prevents a user from manipulating the outer sleeve to inadvertently disengage a locking feature that lockably retains a slide card in the outer sleeve. The false end wall also prevents a user from accessing the slide card through an opening that is created by removing an end wall.

An improved container seal comprises a flexible sealant sheet and a flexible tab sheet bonded thereto. The sealant sheet and tab sheet are of the same size and shape.
