A double-layer polyester film is of a structure having upper and lower layers. Each of the upper and lower layers comprises a copolyester and an additional resin, and is a uniform mixture of the copolyester and the additional resin. The copolyester comprises SiO.sub.2 having a mass fraction of 800-2000 ppm added by means of in-situ polymerization. The copolyester is a PET polyester modified by copolymerization of isophthalic acid, 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol, and neopentyl glycol. The polyester film has thinner thickness, good thermal adhesion with a metal sheet, excellent resistance to deep drawing and complex deformation processing, and excellent corrosion resistance, and can be widely used in metal packaging industry.

A device and method for blowing and stretching a plastic film are provided. A first blow-expanding mechanism subjects a primitive plastic film made of PVC, PLA, or PET to extrusion at a temperature of 140° C.-180° C. and primary blow-expansion to form a volume in which the primitive plastic film has a lateral opening ratio of 1:1. Front-stage press rollers and middle-stage press rollers then subject the primitive plastic film to primary longitudinal press-flattening and pull-stretching, followed by heating and blow-expanding by the second blow-expansion mechanism at a temperature of 160° C.-220° C. and a pressure of 1.1-1.6 atm to achieve a volume in which the primitive plastic film has lateral opening ratio of at least 2:1, further followed by reduction of temperature to a temperature of 10° C.-20° C. for shape fixing to form a shaped plastic film. Finally, rear-stage press rollers subject the shaped plastic film to secondary longitudinal press-flattening and pull-stretching.

The invention relates to a system (10) for improved introduction of a separating device (40) into a flattened film tube (2) of a blown film line (1), with a cutting device (20) for severing only a first tube side (2.1) of the film tube (2), in particular the film tube (2) which has not yet been flattened.

Furthermore, the invention relates to a blown film line (1), as well as a method (100) for producing and providing at least two film webs (6).

In an embodiment, the invention comprises a packaging structure comprising a cap layer which comprises post-consumer resin, at least one additional layer adjacent the first layer which comprises an alloy of: polyethylene terephthalate; a polyolefin; and at least one compatibilizer; a barrier coating adjacent the at least one additional layer and opposite the cap layer, wherein the barrier coating comprises a matrix of polyethyleneimine and polyvinyl alcohol and an overlacquer about the barrier coating. The methods of the invention may include co-extruding the cap layer and an alloy layer to form a co-extrudate; optionally, melt adhering the co-extrudate to another alloy layer to form a melt-adhered sheet; intermixing a solution of polyethyleneimine, polyvinyl alcohol, and water to form a coating; applying the coating to the outermost alloy layer opposite the cap layer; drying the applied coating; applying an overlacquer about the coating; and drying the overlacquer.

The present invention relates to the treatment or prevention of skeletal disorders, at particular skeletal diseases, developed by patients that display abnormal increased activation of the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3), in particular by expression of a constitutively activated mutant of FGFR3.
