The invention relates to a food packaging unit (20) comprising a food container (1) for receiving a liquid, pasty or free-flowing food. The injection-moulded, single-component, cup-shaped base body (2) of the food container surrounds, with a wall (5), a bottom (6) and an outwardly projecting collar (7), an opening (4) which is closed by a food-container-covering film (10) applied to the collar (7). The food container (1) is injection-moulded in a single layer from a polymer blend comprising two components, a first component of which being PVOH or a PVOH copolymer. The food-container-covering film (10), which can be applied to the plastic food container (1) in order to close the opening (4) by sealing, welding or adhesion, comprises a cellulose-containing layer which is coated with PVOH, or a PVOH polymer blend layer.

The present invention relates to the production of cellulose from coffee or cocoa husks. The cellulose extracted can be used to produce paper, card stock, and cardboard. In addition, a composite material also comprising a material that allows the release of aromas is manufactured using said cellulose. Said material is used to manufacture a laminated product for use in primary, secondary and tertiary packaging applications. Said type of article allows printing on the outer surface thereof, is biodegradable and biocompatible.

In an aspect of the invention there is provided a blast protection panel, comprising a package of fibre-reinforced resin sheets, each sheet having a dominant unidirectional fibre orientation, said package of fibre-reinforced resin sheets formed in packed stacks, each stack comprising at least four fibre-reinforced resin sheets with dominant unidirectional fibres oriented, within said each stack, alternatingly at about right angles relative to each other; and said each stack packed against adjacent stacks, said adjacent stacks comprising sheets with dominant unidirectional fibres oriented at acute angles relative said each stack thereby forming a delamination interface.

Described herein is a recyclable packaging having an exposed outermost surface, the recyclable packaging comprising: a wall comprising an inner surface opposite an outer surface, the wall having a multi-layer structure that includes a first layer comprising biaxially oriented polypropylene, a second layer comprising metallized cast polypropylene, a third layer comprising cast polypropylene; and a cavity at least partially surrounded by the wall.

A tube for receiving a liquid or pasty product comprising a multilayered tube jacket, the tube jacket having one or more outer layer(s) made of polyolefin, one or more inner layer(s) made of polyolefin and a barrier layer arranged between the outer layer(s) and the inner layer(s), wherein the barrier layer consists of an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH), and wherein the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer of the barrier layer has an ethylene content of <35 mol % and the thickness of the barrier layer is ≤25 μm.

Recyclable films and methods of making the recyclable films are provided. The recyclable films include a low melt index blend of super hexene LLDPE and bimodal HDPE and an anti-stick additive having a melting point of at least about 115° C. The recyclable films have a heat resistant coating on the film surface that prevents the film from softening and sticking to heat seal jaws during the production process. The recyclable films also have improved tear strength and melt strength such that instances of tears or break offs during the machine direction orientation portion of the production process are significantly reduced or eliminated.

The present disclosure relates to a decoration member comprising a color developing layer comprising a light reflective layer and a light absorbing layer provided on the light reflective layer; and a substrate provided on one surface of the color developing layer, wherein the light absorbing layer comprises a molybdenum-titanium oxide (Mo.sub.aTi.sub.bO.sub.x).

The present disclosure provides a multilayer film. In an embodiment, a multilayer film is provided and includes: a layer (A) comprising an olefin-based polymer; a layer (B) that is a tie layer comprising a sulfonamide derivative grafted olefin-based polymer (SD-g-PO); and a layer (C) comprising a polar component.

A mold assembly for forming a component exhibiting a sealed interior, including providing first and second mold halves, forming first and second half shells of material within cavities defined within each of the mold halves, and upon mating the mold halves together in a first closed mold configuration. The mold halves are reopened, with at least one of the shells being subsequently reoriented such that the first and second half shells are arrayed in opposing fashion with perimeter extending edges of each half shell arranged in contact with one another. Additional steps include reclosing the mold halves and subsequently forming a second perimeter extending material in contact with the contacting perimeter extending edges in order to bond the half shells together, upon which the mold halves are reopened and a completed component removed.

A thermal insulation device includes a first plate, a second plate formed to nest adjacent the first plate with a gap between the first and second plates, a porous material disposed between the plates, and a sealing layer disposed between the first and second plates such that the porous material is sealed from ambient at a pressure less than ambient. Multiple such sets of plates may be used to form an enclosure for a device that thermally insulates the device from ambient.
