A degradable EVOH high-barrier composite film, characterized in that the materials of various layers in the composite film all obtain approximately-consistent biodegradability by introducing biomass, and the additive amount of the additive master batch in the materials of each layer is controlled within the range of 0.3-15% of the total mass of the materials of the corresponding layer; the hydrophilic activity of the hydrophilic groups in the additive master batch should be greater than or equal to that of the hydrophilic groups in the materials of each layer; by adding the additive master batch, the mole ratios of the hydrophilic groups to carbon atoms of the materials of various layers tend to be consistent, namely, the bioactivities tend to be consistent, so that the degradation rates of the materials of various layers in the composite film tend to be consistent. The present invention makes contribution to obtaining approximately-consistent bioactivities and approximately-consistent biodegradation rates by balancing the mole ratios of the hydrophilic groups to carbon atoms in the materials of various layers, and the appearance, the functions and the physical and mechanical properties of a product remain unchanged.

The invention relates to a composition obtainable by mixing polycarbonate, unsized talc and a specific anhydride-modified alpha-olefin polymer, wherein the amounts of the talc and the specific anhydride-modified alpha-olefin polymer are matched to one another such that, for every 10 parts by weight of the talc, 0.10 to 1.4 parts by weight of the anhydride-modified alpha-olefin polymer are used. It has been shown that in situ sizing of talc with the wax can minimize the degradation of the polycarbonate only in the course of mixing with the polycarbonate and, at the same time, properties such as multiaxial impact resistance and flowability can be improved.

An asphalt composition includes asphalt, a non-epoxidized oil chosen from flux oils, bio oils, recycled motor oils, liquid plasticizers, and combinations thereof, and a polyolefin. The polyolefin has a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of from about 1,000 to about 20,000 g/mol, an optional acid number of from about 10 to about 50 mg KOH/g, an optional saponification number of from about 10 to about 100 mg KOH/g, and a density of from about 0.92 to about 1 g/cm.sup.3. The asphalt composition has a performance grade of PG (52 to 88) and (−22 to −40), wherein (52 to 88) is an average seven day maximum pavement design temperature in degrees Celsius and represents deformation resistance and (−22 to −40) is an average one day minimum pavement design temperature in degrees Celsius and represents thermal cracking resistance, each as determined using AASHTO M320.
