Processing aid for aiding in orienting an extruded film layer including a preponderance, by weight, of a high crystal-line polypropylene is a crystalline polypropylene wax. An oriented film layer including a blend of crystalline polypropylene wax and high crystallinity polypropylene homopolymer is part of the invention. The invention includes a method of forming an oriented film layer including a preponderance by weight of a high crystallinity polypropylene and includes the steps of blending a high crystallinity polypropylene with a crystalline polypropylene wax, directing the blend through an extruder to form a film layer and then orienting the film layer. The invention includes a biaxially oriented, multi-layer film including a base layer and at least one skin layer. The base layer includes a blend of crystalline metallocene catalyzed polypropylene wax and a high crystallinity polypropylene.

The invention provides a cover tape and the method for manufacturing the same. The cover tape comprises an antistatic layer, two intermediate layers, a base layer, two tie layers and a heat seal layer. These seven layers are formed by a co-extrusion process.

A multilayer film comprising, in this order: (a) a biaxially oriented polyethylene terephthalate layer, (b) a pressure sensitive adhesive layer, (c) an elastic polyurethane dispersion, and (d) a biaxially oriented polyethylene terephthalate layer.

Layer (d) preferably has the structure A:B:A:C; where A and B preferably comprise crystalline PET and antiblocking particles and C is preferably an amorphous, heat-sealable copolyester.

Roof covering (I) for flat roofs, comprises (A) a polymeric sealing layer and (C) a self-adhesive layer, separated by a soft elastomeric intermediate layer (B).

A method for manufacturing a laminated tinplate for packaging applications, the laminated tinplate including a tinplate sheet and a thermoplastic laminate layer that covers at least one side of the tinplate steel sheet, to a laminated tinplate produced thereby and use thereof in a process to produce containers for packaging purposes.

A low-weight carpet or carpet tile and process for making the same, wherein the carpet or carpet tile comprises a facecloth having a plurality of face yarns tufted through a primary backing, a low-viscosity polyolefin coating layer applied to the primary backing, a reinforcing scrim layer, and an extruded polyolefin sheet. The top surface and bottom surface of the carpet tile are defined by the facecloth and either the extruded polyolefin sheet or the reinforcing scrim layer, respectively. The entire multi-layer web is then passed through a nip to compress the layers together, and the entire web is chilled before optionally being cut into tiles.

The present invention provides a method for producing an optical film excellent in anti-fouling properties and scratch resistance as well as anti-reflection properties. The method includes the steps of: (1) applying a lower layer resin and an upper layer resin; (2) forming a resin layer having the uneven structure on a surface thereof by pressing a mold against the lower layer resin and the upper layer resin from the upper layer resin side in the state where the applied lower layer resin and upper layer resin are stacked; and (3) curing the resin layer, the lower layer resin containing at least one kind of first monomer that contains no fluorine atoms, the upper layer resin containing a fluorine-containing monomer and at least one kind of second monomer that contains no fluorine atoms, at least one of the first monomer and the second monomer containing a compatible monomer that is compatible with the fluorine-containing monomer and being dissolved in the lower layer resin and the upper layer resin.

The invention discloses a high performance plastic magnetic material, comprising a low surface energy layer, a magnetic layer and a printable layer, wherein the magnetic layer and the printable layer are arranged successively on a first side of the low surface energy layer; the low surface energy layer is an organic silicon pressure sensitive adhesive layer. The invention further discloses a preparation method, comprising the following steps: pretreating a magnetic powder with a coupling agent; mixing the pretreated magnetic powder with matrix components and auxiliaries to gain a mixture; extrusion compositing the gained mixture with a printable layer to gain composite paper having the printable layer and a magnetic layer; and applying a low surface energy layer on a side of the magnetic layer, opposite the printable layer. As no UV layer and no adhesive residue, the material of the invention is environmentally friendly and highly reliable.
