Multilayered polymer films are configured so that successive constituent layer packets can be delaminated in continuous sheet form from the remaining film. The new films are compatible with known coextrusion manufacturing techniques, and can also be made without the use of adhesive layers between layer packets that are tailored to be individually peelable from the remainder of the film. Instead, combinations of polymer compositions are used to allow non-adhesive polymer layers to be combined in such a way that delamination of the film is likely to occur along a plurality of delamination surfaces corresponding to interfaces between particular pairs of layers for which the peel strength is reduced relative to the peel strength at other layer interfaces within the film. The absence of an adhesive between peelable layer packets results in the delamination being irreversible.

A biodegradable laminate, wherein a polyvinyl alcohol resin layer is laminated on at least one surface of an aliphatic polyester resin layer through an adhesive layer, which is excellent in biodegradability and gas barrier properties, and also excellent in interlayer adhesiveness, is obtained. The adhesive layer comprises, as a main component, a polyester resin (A) which has a polar group and is obtained by graft polymerization of an ,-unsaturated carboxylic acid or an anhydride thereof on a biodegradable polyester resin (A) comprising at least one structural unit selected from structural units represented by the following general formulae (1), (2), and (3): ##STR00001##

A polymeric sheet having low density and comprising a low to non-existent amount of cyclic olefinic polymers (COP) and/or cyclic olefinic copolymers (COC). The overall density of the sheet may be lower than water. The sheet may be stretched and then heat shrinked onto an article. The sheet may be used as a label or package to wrap articles therewith.

The present invention relates to a coating composition for polyester film capable of printing on all types of printers with liquid and dry toners. The coating composition comprising of a combination of polyethylene carboxylic acid dispersion and homopolymer or copolymer of polyacrylate dispersion and/or homopolymer or copolymer of polyvinyl acetate dispersion, wherein acrylate and/or acetate content be is in the range of 1 to 50% of carboxylic acid content in the dispersion.

The present disclosure is directed to peelable, heat-sealable lidding films for containers of diverse polymer compositions storing various products such as foodstuffs and pharmaceuticals. The lidding films disclosed herein can be heat-sealed to crystalline polyester trays (CPET), easily peeled, and contain improved antifogging performance by incorporating a non-migratory antifogging additive into the heat sealable layer of the film without deteriorating seal strengths.

The present invention relates to a biodegradable sheet comprising at least two polymer layers, wherein a first polymer layer comprises a mixture of at least two different biodegradable polymers selected from the group consisting of PLA, PCL, PBS and PBSA; and wherein a second polymer layer comprises a biodegradable polymer selected from the group consisting of PBS, PBSA, a mixture of PLA and PBS, and a mixture of PLA and PBSA.

The present invention provides an adhesive film hardly suffering from fisheyes and deposition of dirt and dusts thereonto and having excellent mechanical strength and heat resistance as well as good adhesion properties, which can be suitably used as various surface protective films, etc. The present invention relates to an adhesive film comprising a polyester film and an adhesive layer formed on at least one surface of the polyester film, in which the adhesive layer comprises a resin having a glass transition point of not higher than 0 C., and an antistatic agent, and a thickness of the adhesive layer is not more than 10 m.

A curative containing two or more primary hydroxyl groups per molecule and one or more moieties derived from a secondary hydroxyl-containing polyol such as polypropylene glycol is prepared in a multistage process wherein the secondary hydroxyl-containing polyol is end-capped with an excess of a reactant such as a polybasic acid and the resulting functionalized intermediate is then reacted with a polyol such as glycerin or diethylene glycol containing primary hydroxyl groups. Such curatives may be used in combination with isocyanate-functionalized polyurethane prepolymers to provide two component adhesives useful for laminating thin films and/or foils.

A gas barrier film according to the present invention includes: a resin film substrate; a first layer made of an aqueous coating agent (C) that contains a water soluble polymer (A) and an inorganic layered mineral (B); and a second layer made of a coating agent (D) that contains titanium oxide, the first layer and the second layer being disposed in this order on at least one surface of the resin film substrate.

The present invention provides a laminate material having a polyester film and a web of polyester fibers cohesively bonded directly thereto, such that portions of the fibers are bonded to the polyester film and portions of the fibers are free from the polyester film. The invention may also include a glass reinforced polymer layer formed on the laminated facer where the polymer of the glass reinforced polymer layer is commingled with the nonwoven of the laminated facer. The laminate may further include a second polymer layer having a thickness joined to the fiber layer and/or a layer of hot melt adhesive applied to the polyester fibers. Also presented is a composite material having a polyester film, a layer of polyester fibers bonded to the second polymer layer; a second polymer layer joined to the polyester film; and a glass reinforced polymer layer formed on the laminated facer, where the polymer of the class reinforced polymer layer is commingled with the nonwoven of the laminated facer.
