The invention relates to a wash-off label. According to an embodiment, the face film of the wash-off label comprises biaxially oriented plastic film and configured to shrink asymmetrically so that a difference between the shrinkage of the film in machine direction and in transverse direction is at least 55%, when exposed to washing liquid comprising caustic soda and having temperature in the range of 65-85° C. for equal or less than 5 minutes. The invention further relates to a use of the wash-off label and to a labelled article.

A battery packaging material including a laminate that is provided with a barrier layer, a heat-fusible resin layer positioned on one surface side of the barrier layer, and a polyester film positioned on the other surface side of the barrier layer. When the infrared absorption spectrum on the surface of the polyester film in 18 directions at intervals of 10° from 0° to 180° is obtained using the total reflection method of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, the ratio (surface orientation degree, Y.sub.max/Y.sub.min) of the maximum value Y.sub.max and the minimum value Y.sub.min of the ratio (Y.sub.1340/Y.sub.1410) of the absorption peak intensity Y.sub.1340 in 1340 cm.sup.−1 and the absorption peak intensity Y.sub.1410 in 1410 cm.sup.−1 in the infrared absorption spectrum is in the range of 1.4-2.7.

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.

An edge trim for pieces of furniture, including a meltable layer, is described. The molecular structure of the meltable layer contains both polar and non-polar parts. By way of a non-limiting example, an edge trim for pieces of furniture having an exposed edge of wooden or wood substitute material is described, comprising a molten layer and a structural layer, wherein the structural layer and the molten layer are connected in an adhesive bond, wherein the molten layer is made of a material that is chemically modified such that polar and non-polar components are found in a single molecular structure, wherein the molten layer contains energy absorbing additives, wherein the energy absorbing additives of the molten layer are selected from the group consisting of metal oxides, metal phosphates, metal salts of organic anions and combinations thereof.
