A multilayer laminate (100) comprises an oriented polyethylene film (102), a biaxially oriented film (104) adhered to the oriented polyethylene film (102), a barrier film (106) adhered to the biaxially oriented film (104), and a multilayer polyethylene (PE) film (108) adhered to the barrier film (106). The biaxially oriented film (104) comprises one or more components selected from biaxially oriented polyamide (BOPA), biaxially oriented polyethylene terephthalate (BOPET), and biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP).

A package comprises: a sterile barrier packaging film; self-sterilizing components comprising: a plurality of chlorite ions and water, wherein the self-sterilizing components are substantially free of an energy-activated catalyst and of an acid-releasing compound; a package interior formed by hermetically sealing the sterile barrier packaging film; and a headspace within the package interior comprising carbon dioxide present in an amount of greater than or equal to 5% by volume of the headspace. When the package is exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light having a wavelength of 254 nm, the chlorite ions react with the water to generate chlorine dioxide (ClO.sub.2), which is released into the headspace. In the absence of any UV light, there is not chlorine dioxide (ClO.sub.2) generation.

A laminate of the present invention includes, in a thickness direction of the laminate, a transfer foil in which at least a patch substrate, a relief forming layer, a reflective layer, and an adhesive layer are sequentially laminated, a protective sheet that is provided on a first side of the transfer foil in the thickness direction, and an information recording sheet that is provided on a second side of the transfer foil facing away from the protective sheet in the thickness direction.

The invention provides a polyester composition in which the primary repeating units contain an aromatic dicarboxylic acid component (Component A) and an ethylene glycol component (Component C) and a long-chain alkyl dicarboxylic acid component having not less than 6 carbons (Component B) or a long-chain alkyl diol component having not less than 6 carbons (Component D), wherein a sum (WB+WD) of a relative amount (WB) of Component B as calculated based on a total number of moles of Component A and Component B plus a relative amount (WD) of Component D as calculated based on a total number of moles of Component C and Component D are within a range of 2-13 mol %. The invention also provides a polyester film prepared from the polyester composition and having excellent dimensional stability, as well as a magnetic recording medium utilizing the polyester film.

A laminate includes a multilayer outer film, which includes a first barrier layer and polyolefin layer on both sides of the first barrier layer, and a multilayer middle film, which includes a second barrier layer and polyolefin layer on both sides of the second barrier layer.
