The present disclosure relates to a multi-laminate plastic carrier plate having a plurality N of A-B-A layer sequences, wherein the A layer includes a first thermoplastic resin and the B layer includes a second thermoplastic resin, and wherein the first thermoplastic resin is a virgin plastic and the second plastic is a recycled plastic, and wherein 250≥N≥2, preferably 200≥N≥3, preferably 125≥N≥4, still more preferably 100≥N≥5.

Described is a method of making a densified fiber batt that includes the steps of: a) providing a fiber batt with a first plurality of fibers having a first melting point and a second plurality of fibers having a second melting point different from the first melting point; and b) subjecting the fiber batt to heat and pressure in a static press, thereby forming a densified fiber batt having a first surface and an opposed second surface.

The present invention relates to a mono or multi-layer polyester film, a process for producing the mono or multi-layer polyester film, an article comprising the mono or multi-layer polyester film as well as the use of the mono or multi-layer polyester film packaging products, insulating materials, solar, marine or aviation applications, science, electronic or acoustic applications, wires, cables, radio frequency identifications, flexible circuits, graphic arts, stone paper, holograms, filter products, cosmetic products, household products imaging, recording media, or industrial products.

A recyclable, laminated polyolefin-based film structure comprises two or more film plies laminated to each other. Each of the laminated film plies comprises one or more polyolefin-based films. The film structure has an energy-cured coating layer disposed on the outermost outward facing surface of the film structure and a printed ink layer on an interior surface of one of the polyolefin-based polyolefin layers. In certain embodiments, the outermost surface of the laminated polyolefin-based film structure has a melting temperature which is at least 100 degrees Celsius, and more preferably 180 degrees Celsius, higher than a melting temperature of the innermost surface of the laminated polyolefin-based film structure.

A composite textile product includes a polyamide textile layer and a polyamide film. The polyamide film is bonded to the polyamide textile layer. A thickness of the polyamide textile layer is between 0.1 mm and 0.3 mm. The polyamide film has an average pore size ranging from 10 μm to 150 μm. A thickness of the polyamide film is between 0.01 mm and 0.1 mm. Wherein the polyamide film comprises a copolymer material, and the copolymer material includes a polyamide section and a polyether section.

In an embodiment, the invention comprises a packaging structure comprising a cap layer which comprises post-consumer resin, at least one additional layer adjacent the first layer which comprises an alloy of: polyethylene terephthalate; a polyolefin; and at least one compatibilizer; a barrier coating adjacent the at least one additional layer and opposite the cap layer, wherein the barrier coating comprises a matrix of polyethyleneimine and polyvinyl alcohol and an overlacquer about the barrier coating. The methods of the invention may include co-extruding the cap layer and an alloy layer to form a co-extrudate; optionally, melt adhering the co-extrudate to another alloy layer to form a melt-adhered sheet; intermixing a solution of polyethyleneimine, polyvinyl alcohol, and water to form a coating; applying the coating to the outermost alloy layer opposite the cap layer; drying the applied coating; applying an overlacquer about the coating; and drying the overlacquer.

A thermal insulation article includes a thermally insulating pad shaped to be positioned in a cavity of a rectangular prism shipping container. The pad includes a solid compostable panel formed primarily of starch and/or plant fiber pulp that holds together as a single unit, and a water-proof or water-resistant film forming a pocket enclosing the panel. The panel includes a first section, a second section, and a third section connecting the first section to the second section, the first and second section each having a central portion and two flaps that extend from the central portion beyond the third section, and wherein the panel is foldable into an open box.

Plastic waste is shredded and formed to a desired shape and held together using a binder and/or heat, etc. The resulting composite material may be useful for building and/or furniture and/or flooring, etc. (similar to wood composite board). In some embodiments, the board is highly water resistant. Optionally, the board is made of layers. For example, an inner layer has reduced density and/or an outer layer may have decreased particle size and/or increased fiber content.

Multi-layered packaging materials. In an embodiment, a packaging material includes: an outer layer comprising a colorant and from about 70 wt % to about 99 wt % of a first post consumer resin (PCR); and an inner layer comprising a polymer and being about 3 wt % to about 99 wt % of the total packaging material. The packaging material can also include a middle comprising another colorant and from about 70 wt % to about 100 wt % of another PCR. In another embodiment, a packaging material includes: an outer layer comprising a first colorant and from about 70 wt % to about 99 wt % of a first virgin polymer; a middle layer that is about 40 wt % to about 95 wt % of the total packaging material, the middle layer comprising a PCR; and an inner layer comprising a second virgin polymer. The foregoing packaging materials can be made by co-extruding the different layers therein.

A resin composition contains: (A) an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, (B) a polyester resin, and (C) a sorbic acid ester; wherein the sorbic acid ester (C) is present in an amount of 0.00001 to 10 ppm based on the weight of the resin composition. The resin composition exhibits excellent thermal degradation resistance reduced susceptibility to coloration.
