The invention relates to an impregnating resin composition containing a) a melamine formaldehyde resin, b) a non-ionic wetting agent, c) a non-ionic release agent, d) a hardener, and e) polyhexamethylene guanidine (PHMG). The invention further relates to a resin coating which can be obtained by condensing the impregnating resin composition and to a resin coating containing a co-condensate made of the melamine formaldehyde resin and polyhexamethylene guanidine (PHMG). The invention further relates to an impregnate containing i) the impregnating resin composition or the resin coating and ii) an impregnate carrier material. Another object of the invention is a laminate containing iii) a laminate carrier material and iv) the impregnate or the impregnating resin composition, or the resin coating. A further object of the invention is a method for producing a laminate having the steps of i) applying the impregnating resin composition or the resin coating or the impregnate onto a carrier material and ii) compressing the component from step i). In addition, the invention concerns the use of the impregnating resin composition or the resin coating in the production of wood-based materials, impregnates, and/or laminates.

The present disclosure is directed to the use of cellulosic materials, such as wood, paper, etc., or synthetic polymeric materials, such as a thermoplastic, rubber, etc., or a composite containing one or more of these materials as feedstock barrels for the process of injection molding of metallic glasses by rapid capacitor discharge forming (RCDF) techniques.

A label for a bottle where the label is comprised of a laminate where an outer layer (3) is a material susceptible to losing opaqueness when made wet, and an inner layer (5) behind this first layer which is a material that is opaque, and such that it will maintain such opaqueness when wet.

The invention relates to a paper profile (1), in particular for a packaging element or packaging equipment of food packaging. The paper profile (1) has an elongated shape. The paper profile (1) is formed by at least one round or almost round, flexurally rigid paper rod (3) or a plurality of round or almost round, flexurally rigid solid paper rods (3). The flexural rigidity of the paper profile (1) corresponds in at least one bending direction to the flexural rigidity of one of the rigid paper rods (3).

The present invention provides a polyethylene-based resin composition for a foamable laminate which contains a polyethylene-based resin (A) satisfying the following properties (a-1) to (a-3): (a-1) MFR is 6 g/10 minutes or more and less than 20 g/10 minutes; (a-2) the density is from 0.920 to 0.930 g/cm.sup.3; and (a-3) the ratio of eluates at an elution temperature of 70 C. or higher is from 47 to 83% by weight in the elution curve obtained by a temperature rising elution fractionation (TREF) with o-dichlorobenzene.

The invention provides hot melt adhesive with wide service temperature ranges, methods of using the adhesive to bond substrates together, to close/seal cases and cartons and the like, and to articles of manufacture comprising the adhesive. The hot melt adhesive comprises a metallocene catalyzed polyethylene copolymer, less than 10 wt % of a functionalized metallocene catalyzed polyethylene copolymer, greater than 22 wt % of a wax, a tackifier and optionally, additives.

A label for a bottle where the label is comprised of a laminate where an outer layer (3) is a material susceptible to losing opaqueness when made wet, and an inner layer (5) behind this first layer which is a material that is opaque, and such that it will maintain such opaqueness when wet.

The present invention relates to a curtain coatable gas barrier coating composition comprising polyvinyl alcohol and a surfactant, in which the surfactant is a water-soluble non-ionic ethoxylated alcohol. The present invention also relates to a method for providing a substrate with a gas barrier layer by means of the coating composition, and a coated substrate having at least one gas barrier layer obtained by coating the substrate with the coating composition. Further, the invention relates to a packaging material comprising a coated paperboard coated with the coating composition, and a liquid package comprising such a packaging material.

Provided herein are products, methods, and kits, for use in regulating the temperature of an object. The present invention relates to thermal insulating liners for regulating the temperature of perishable goods or temperature sensitive products. The thermal insulating liners generally may be dimensioned to fit within a container. The thermal insulating liners may be quickly collapsed and reconstructed to improve stackability and diminish the amount of space required to store the thermal insulating liners prior to use.

The invention concerns a heat-sealable biodegradable packaging material, which comprises a fibrous substrate (1) and one or more polymer coating layers (2) extruded onto said substrate. According to the invention the packaging material includes at least one polymer coating layer (2) containing at least 70 weight-% of polylactide (PLA) and at least 5 weight-% of polybutylene succinate (PBS) or its derivate blended therewith. Optionally an acryl copolymer such as ethylene butyl acrylate glycidyl methacrylate terpolymer (EBAGMA) may be included in the polymer blend. The invention further concerns a heat-sealed container, such as a disposable drinking cup, and a heat-sealed product package made from the packaging material, as well as uses of PBS or its derivates as blends with PLA in extrusion coating, for improving adhesivity of the coating to the fibrous substrate and reduced raw edge penetration to the packaging material, especially penetration of hot coffee held in the drinking cup.
