This coating solution for a gas barrier contains an ammonium salt (A) of a polymer having a carboxyl group, a particulate multivalent metallic compound (B), and water, the content of the multivalent metallic compound (B) being about 0.5-2.0 times the chemical equivalent of the ammonium salt (A), and the mean particle diameter of the multivalent metallic compound (B) being about 4 μm or less.

The present invention relates to a cross-linkable, grafted or non-grafted polymer composition comprising a cross-linkable copolymer containing hydrolysable silane groups. The invention further relates to a crosslinked polymer composition obtained by cross-linking the cross-linkable copolymer containing hydrolysable silane groups and an article comprising the same. The present invention also relates to the use of one or more cross-linking accelerators for accelerating the crosslinking of a cross-linkable copolymer containing hydrolysable silane groups.

The present disclosure relates to polyamide compositions and resulting injection-molded articles that can be plated, e.g., metal coated, to form structurally aesthetic injection-molded articles. The polyamide compositions may include from 40 wt. % to 80 wt. % of a polyamide, from 0.5 wt. % to 40 wt. % of an etchable filler, from 5 wt. % to 30 wt. % of glass fiber, optionally less than 40 wt. % of a semi-structural mineral, and optionally from 0.1 wt. % to 13 wt. % of additive. The polyamide composition imparts very good surface appearance and excellent mechanical properties to injection-molded articles that are substantially free of visual defects.

Polyolefin compositions comprising i) a polyolefin, ii) one or more phosphorus-containing benzofuranone compounds and iii) one or more hindered phenolic antioxidants are provided excellent protection against discoloration and enhanced thermal stability during melt processing as exhibited by improved retention of molecular weight and maintenance of polymer molecular architecture.

The present invention relates to a thermosetting resin composition for coating a metal film having high flowability and pattern-filling property and a metal laminate using the same.

A composition of the present invention includes: a styrene-based elastomer; a paraffin-based process oil; an olefin resin; a crosslinking agent including an organic peroxide; a crosslinking aid; an antioxidant; and a surface-treated filler obtained by surface treating particles formed from magnesium hydroxide with a higher fatty acid. The paraffin-based process oil has a kinematic viscosity at 40° C. of 300 mm.sup.2/s or greater. Furthermore, from 405 to 485 parts by mass of the paraffin-based process oil, from 9 to 13 parts by mass of the olefin resin, from 5 to 7 parts by mass of the crosslinking agent, from 13 to 15 parts by mass of the crosslinking aid, from 3 to 4 parts by mass of the antioxidant, and from 15 to 25 parts by mass of the surface-treated filler are respectively blended per 100 parts by mass of the styrene-based elastomer.
