The present invention is a liquid-repellent film or sheet that exhibits an excellent liquid repellency, and a packaging material using the same. The liquid-repellent film or sheet comprises: a substrate layer (2); an adhesive layer (3) that comprises a thermoplastic resin, and is formed on at least one plane of the substrate layer (2); and a liquid-repellent layer (4) that comprises a resin (6) having a liquid-repellent moiety, and hydrophilic particles (5), and is formed on the surface of the adhesive layer (3).

a film composite for manufacturing a package for planar carriers of pharmaceutical active substances, for example transdermal patches, encompassing, in a direction from the outer side of the film composite toward its inner side: a metal layer; an acrylic-acid-containing joining layer; a polyethylene layer; and a COC layer made of cycloolefin copolymer, a side of the COC layer which faces away from the metal layer being an exposed surface of the film composite, wherein provision is made that the polyethylene layer encompasses metallocene polyethylene.

The invention relates to the packaging of one or more articles in a packaging sheet material which is moveable from a first condition to a second, expanded, condition to improve the packaging effect of the sheet material. In accordance with the invention the sheet material includes a first portion with apertures which can be moved to an open position to create the second, expanded, condition and at least one, but typically a plurality of spaced apart, second portions which have no apertures, or a different shape and/or pattern of apertures than the apertures of the first portion, so as to form a surface of the said second portion more suitable for the application of a label and/or indications thereon when the sheet material is in the second expanded condition.

The present disclosure provides a barrier laminate (F) comprising: a) at least one polyolefin core layer (X); b) at least one barrier layer (Y) joined to both the sides of the at least one polyolefin core layer (X); and c) at least one polyolefin layer (Z) adjacent to the at least one barrier layer (Y), wherein the at least one barrier layer is a polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) coating layer on one side of the at least one polyolefin core layer (X) and has a coating thickness in the range of 0.1 gsm-1.5 gsm. The present disclosure also provides a process for preparing the barrier laminate.

The resin composition includes a block copolymer including a vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-derived structural unit and a conjugated diene-derived structural unit, the resin composition satisfying the following (1) to (3): (1) an area ratio of components having a molecular weight in terms of polystyrene of equal to or more than 400,000 with respect to all components is equal to or more than 8% and equal to or less than 50%; (2) at least one main peak of a loss tangent value (tan δ) measured under a condition of a frequency of 1 Hz at a temperature rising rate of 4° C./min in accordance with ISO 6721-1 is present in a range of equal to or more than 70° C. and equal to or less than 100° C.; and (3) a strain hardening degree (λ max) of a compression-molded specimen prepared in accordance with ISO 293 is equal to or more than 2.0.

Methods for stretch-forming a thermoplastic film comprises: stretching the thermoplastic film between a first roller and a second roller, wherein the first the roller rotates at a first peripheral velocity and the second roller rotates at a second peripheral velocity that is higher than the first peripheral velocity; and advancing the thermoplastic film from the second roller to a third roller, wherein the third roller rotates at a third peripheral velocity that is lower than the second peripheral velocity, wherein a ratio of the third peripheral velocity to the second peripheral velocity is no larger than 0.95. The resulting breathable thermoplastic films may have a basis weight of no larger than 15 g/m.sup.2 and a shrinkage of no larger than 5%.

The present invention relates to a printed substrate comprising a first paper layer, the first paper layer comprising a first side and an opposing second side, the first side comprising a flexography print area and a non-print area, wherein the flexography print area has a color density no less than about 0.70 as measured according to Color Density Test disclosed herein, and wherein the non-print area has a roughness in the range of from about 3 μm to about 15 μm as measured according to Surface Roughness Test disclosed herein; a package for accommodating one or more articles comprising the printed substrate; and a method of making the printed substrate.

A method of manufacturing sheeting is provided, the method including the steps of forming multiple recesses in a symmetrical repeat pattern on a sheet of material, extruding a molten material to form an upper outside wall and a lower outside wall, interposing the formed sheet between the upper outside wall and the lower outside wall, and fixing the interposed sheet to the upper outside wall and the lower outside wall. Also provided is sheeting having an upper outside wall and a lower outside wall and an interposed sheet fixed between the outside walls. The interposed sheet includes multiple recesses in a symmetrical repeat pattern, where the upper and lower outside walls are, or the interposed sheet is, manufactured from a material which includes a polymeric material.

A laminate tube container is made of laminate film or sheet comprising of a vapor metalizing polyethylene film with a vapor evaporated side made of a metal, metal-oxide or inorganic substance, which is adhesive-laminated on the evaporate side with polyethylene film and an adhesive agent then laminated with other extrusion layers of polyethylene, tie and copolymer of ethylene and vinyl alcohol. The laminated tube giving both oxygen and water vapor barrier characteristics making them suitable for packaging tube particularly filled with contents, such as liquid or creamy cosmetic products and toothpastes.
