The present disclosure provides a food contact article. According to one embodiment, the food contact article includes at least one food contact surface. This at least one food contact surface is made up of at least 50 weight percent of at least one biodegradable polymer, such as polyhydroxyalkanoates, and from about 0.1 weight percent to about 1.0 weight percent of at least one antimicrobial agent.

An organopolysiloxane containing at least two silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups, the reaction product of an amino-containing organoalkoxysilane with a dicarboxylic anhydride, and an organopolysiloxane containing long-chain alkyl and alkoxy groups, but free of hydroxyl groups are emulsified and dispersed in water in the presence of a surfactant to form a coating emulsion composition.

The invention relates to novel quaternary amino alcohol functional organosilicon compounds, aqueous compositions containing the latter, and a method for their production, in particular in the form of oligomers and polymers which can be present in the partially or fully hydrolyzed form and are in particular water-soluble. The compositions comprise only an extremely small portion of VOCs. The invention further relates to their use, preferably in the production of inkjet photographic papers.

The invention relates to a method for producing a covering layer for elastic laminate comprising a) impregnating a carrier fabric, b) applying a surface coating comprising a crosslinker and a prepolymer that can be crosslinked via reactive end groups, c) crosslinking the crosslinkable prepolymer, and d) drying the elastic laminate covering layer. The papers obtainable in this manner are suitable for producing a laminate that, with the elastic outer face thereof, has a pleasant and appealing feel underfoot and good haptics.

Coating compositions that can provide grease and oil resistant coating for substrates, especially paper and textile substrates, are disclosed. The coating compositions comprise water insoluble α-(1,3.fwdarw.glucan) polymer and/or dextran polymer and optionally other additives.
