Compounded virgin and post-consumer recyclate HDPE compositions with improved processability and mechanical properties, including processes of making, products and application in food packaging are described herein.

Provided is a multilayered container including a polyester layer containing a thermoplastic polyester resin (X) and a polyamide layer containing a polyamide resin (Y), wherein the polyester layer is an innermost layer, and the polyamide layer is an intermediate layer. The polyamide resin (Y) has a constituent unit derived from a diamine and a constituent unit derived from a dicarboxylic acid. At least 70 mol % of the constituent units derived from a diamine are a constituent unit derived from a xylylenediamine, and at least 70 mol % of the constituent units derived from a dicarboxylic acid are a constituent unit derived from an α,ω-linear aliphatic dicarboxylic acid having from 4 to 20 carbons. When an overall thickness is 100%, the polyamide layer is present from a position of 5 to 35% from an inner surface, and a thickness of the polyamide layer is from 1 to 15%.

Noise attenuating trim part for a vehicle comprising a pile layer, a bonding mass layer and a backing layer whereby the bonding mass layer is bonded to the adjacent layers whereby the bonding mass layer is comprising at least thermoplastic elastomeric polyolefin based compound material (TPO) with a filler content of at least 55%, and whereby

the bonding mass layer has a density of between 1.4 and 1.75 kg/dm.sup.3, a viscosity of less than 50.000 mPa.s and a MFI above 250 and whereby the bonding mass layer is adjacent the pile layer and partly penetrated into the lower area of the pile thereby binding the fibers and/or filaments and/or the tufts within the pile.

The present invention provides a multilayer stretch film comprising at least one core layer arranged between two exterior layers, wherein the thickness of the film is in the range of 5-40 μm, and wherein the film comprises a recycled post-consumer waste polyethylene material at a content of from 10 to 90% by weight based on the total weight of the film.

The present disclosure relates to a polyester resin blend, a polyester film and a preparation method of the same. The polyester resin blend is capable of providing a heat shrinkable label that is transparent and has excellent shrinkage even if it contains recycled polyethylene terephthalate as well as virgin polyethylene terephthalate. In addition, the heat shrinkable label can be reused while attached to a PET container, etc., and is expected to be useful for providing continuously usable plastics that have been recently attracting attention.

In various aspects, the present disclosure pertains to thermoformable, multi-layer polymer films comprising a core layer that is comprised of a blend of high density polyethylene and low density polyethylene and, at least one outermost layer that is comprised of a blend of a cyclic olefin copolymer, polyethylene, a functionalized polymer, a dispersing agent and a mineral filler. The present disclosure includes thermoformed webs made from such films, the webs having one or more thermoformed cavities contained therein. Other aspects of the disclosure pertain to methods of forming such thermoformed webs, packaged products comprising such thermoformed webs, and methods of recycling such thermoformed webs.

The present disclosure relates to a decorative panel with a carrier plate comprising a multi-laminate plastic carrier material with a plurality N of layer sequences of the A-B-A type, wherein layer A comprises a first thermoplastic resin and layer B a second thermoplastic resin different from the thermoplastic resin of layer A and wherein N lies between ≥3 and ≤250.

The disclosed composite structure provides a reinforced thermoplastic polymer composite part with a high-quality surface finish. This may be used as a vehicle part or body panel, such as an interior vehicle part or exterior body panel. Additionally, the surface finish may be coloured, such that the surface does not need to be painted or wrapped to achieve a desired surface colour, and the surface may protect inner layers from UV radiation, either by virtue of the material of the surface itself, or the incorporation of a UV-absorbing additive. Specifically, the disclosed composite structure comprises a structural layer comprising reinforcing fibres, such as glass or carbon fibres, and a thermoplastic body polymer. The structure further comprises a surface layer providing a surface finish to the composite structure, the surface layer comprising a thermoplastic surface polymer substantially free from reinforcing fibres.

The present invention provides an environment-responsive laminated film including an inorganic thin film layer and a protective layer in this order on a substrate film layer using a polyester resin recycled from PET bottles. The laminated film has excellent barrier properties and adhesiveness even after a severe wet heat treatment and has less deterioration in appearance of the film even after retorting. The laminated film comprises a substrate film; an inorganic thin film layer on at least one surface of the substrate film; and a protective layer containing a urethane resin on the inorganic thin film layer, wherein (a) the substrate film contains 50% by weight or more of a polyester resin recycled from PET bottles; (b) standard deviation of a haze after retorting the laminated film at 130° C. for 30 minutes is 0.5% or less; and (c) an adhesion amount of the protective layer is 0.5 g/m.sup.2 or less.

An ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer composition is substantially free from coloration, and contains: (A) an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer; (B) a polyamide resin; and (C) an iron compound; wherein the iron compound (C) is present in an amount of 0.01 to 20 ppm on a metal basis based on the weight of the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer composition.
