The first layer is made of extruded polymer and includes a plurality of first elements aligned in a first direction, a plurality of second elements aligned in a second direction and extending over the plurality of first elements, and a plurality of open portions defined by the plurality of first and second elements. The second layer is made of woven fabric. The first layer is bonded to the second layer so that the first layer extends only partially through the second layer and an interface formed between the first and second layers includes bonded and unbonded portions and airflow channels that extend in a plane parallel to the first and second layers.

The present disclosure relates to ornamental indicia carrier and method of producing the same. In some embodiments, the ornamental indicia carrier comprises an ultraviolet light (“UV”) cured ink printed on a thin flexible film and combined with an adhesive layer. The ornamental indicia carrier is capable of enduring the conditions inside the mouth for an extended period of time and can be used in conjunction with a dental appliance.

The present invention relates to oriented, multilayer polyethylene films. In one aspect, a biaxially oriented, multilayer polyethylene film comprises at least one layer comprising: (1) a polyethylene-based composition that comprises: (a) at least 97% by weight, based on the total weight of the polyethylene-based composition, of a polyethylene composition comprising: (i) from 25 to 37 percent by weight of a first polyethylene fraction having a density in the range of 0.935 to 0.947 g/cm.sup.3 and a melt index (I.sub.2) of less than 0.1 g/10 minutes; and (ii) from 63 to 75 percent by weight of a second polyethylene fraction; wherein the polyethylene composition has less than 0.10 branches per 1,000 carbon atoms when measured using .sup.13C NMR, wherein the density of the polyethylene-based composition is at least 0.965 g/cm.sup.3, and wherein the melt index (I.sub.2) of the polyethylene-based composition is 0.5 to 10 g/10 minutes.

A description is given of a method of making film laminates using a lamination adhesive comprising (a) at least one acrylic polymer A with anhydride groups which are reactive with primary or secondary amine groups; and (b) at least one compound B with at least two amine groups selected from primary and secondary amine groups. The acrylic polymer A has a molecular weight of from 3000 to 50000 and the lamination adhesive is free of organic solvents, free of water and free of compounds with isocyanate groups.

Ballistic resistant composite materials having high positive buoyancy in water are provided. More particularly, provided are foam-free, buoyant composite materials fabricated using dry processing techniques. The materials comprise fibrous plies that are partially coated with a particulate binder that is thermopressed to transform a portion of the binder into raised, discontinuous patches bonded to fiber/tape surfaces, while another portion of the particulate binder remains on the fibers/tapes as unmelted particles. The presence of the unmelted binder particles maintains empty spaces within the composite to materials which increases the positive buoyancy of the composites in water.

A laminated sheet includes a substrate having sheet shape and a sealant layer provided on the substrate. The sealant layer includes a first resin layer containing a crystalline polyester, and a second resin layer located between the first resin layer and the substrate and containing no polyester, the second resin layer is joined to the substrate and the first resin layer, and a crystallization temperature of the crystalline polyester is 120° C. or higher and 150° C. or lower.

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing of a laminated cellulose-based liquid or semi-liquid food packaging material, wherein the laminated packaging material has a bulk material layer of paper, paperboard or other cellulose-based material, an innermost, heat sealable and liquid-tight layer of a thermoplastic polymer, the innermost polymer layer intended to be in direct contact with the packaged food product, a barrier layer laminated between the bulk layer and the innermost layer. The invention further relates the laminated packaging materials obtained by the method and to a packaging container for liquid food packaging, comprising the laminated packaging material or being made from the laminated packaging material obtained by the method.

A recycling-friendly, easily producible paper packaging laminate with a high barrier against water vapor, oxygen and/or aromas, wherein a barrier film includes at least one substrate layer, a joining layer, and a barrier layer, wherein the joining layer is arranged between the substrate layer and the barrier layer, in that the substrate layer consists predominantly of polyethylene or polypropylene with a polyethylene content or a polypropylene content of at least 60 wt. % of the substrate layer, in that at least the at least one substrate layer of the barrier film is stretched, in that the content of the paper layer is between 50 wt. % and 90 wt. % of the paper packaging laminate, and in that the barrier film is joined to the paper layer by a hydrophilic adhesive layer, wherein the side of the paper layer facing the barrier film is uncoated.
