The invention relates to a biodegradable packaging unit for a food product and a manufacturing method there for. The packaging unit comprises: —a container with an outer surface and an inner surface at least partly defining a compartment for holding the food product; —a biodegradable multi-layer that is provided on the inner surface of the container and comprising: —an inner cover layer comprising an amount of a biodegradable aliphatic polyester; —a first intermediate layer of a biodegradable material for connecting and/or sealing adjacent layers; —a functional layer comprising a polyvinylalcohol; —a second intermediate layer of a biodegradable material for connecting and/or sealing adjacent layers; and—an outer cover layer comprising an amount of a biodegradable aliphatic polyester, wherein the container comprises a moulded fiber matrix with an amount of biodegradable aliphatic polyester.

This invention relates to the use of ethylene/propylene random copolymers for the production of films having low-haze. In particular, the present invention involves the use of ethylene/propylene random copolymer comprising 90-96.5 wt % propylene and 3.5-10 wt % ethylene demonstrated to have low haze. This invention also relates to an ethylene/propylene random copolymer composition comprising about 3.5-10 wt % ethylene content and about 90-96.5 wt % propylene content, for production of a low-haze film.

Disclosed are removable pressure sensitive adhesive compositions (PSAs) useful with facestocks and/or packaging labels designed to be removed in the recycling of polymeric packaging. The PSAs of the invention include (a) at least one monomer which may undergo free radical polymerization and whose homopolymer has a glass transition temperature of less than or equal to 10° C., (b) at least one mono-olefinically unsaturated monomer having aldehyde or ketone functionality, and (c) an effective amount of at least one polyhydrazide crosslinker having hydrazine functionality. The PSA composition of the invention exhibits a peel adhesion value of between about 0.4 lbs/in (70 N/m) and about 4 lbs/in (700 N/m), and the percent film remaining on the polymeric packaging after a sink-float testing is 0% to about 8%.
