A laminate composite material (1), suitable for the packaging of food products and having a multilayer structure comprising: a first outer layer (21) of paper or plastic film; an inner layer (22) of adhesive; and an intermediate layer (23) interposed between the first and the second layer and made of sodium silicate (Na.sub.2O×SiO.sub.2).

A multi-layered packaging film includes (a) an outer print layer, (b) an inner product-side layer, and (c) a lamination layer interposed between the outer print layer and the inner product-side layer.

The present invention has an object of providing a molded article of a composite structure obtained by bonding a polar thermoplastic resin, especially polyacetal, with another resin in a simple manner. According to the present invention, a molded article of a composite structure obtained by bonding a polar thermoplastic resin and a resin containing an aliphatic ester structure as a main component to each other in the state where at least a face at which both of the materials contact each other is in a melted state can be provided.

A compostable laminate for food wrap and method for making same. The wrap can include a first layer of paper material, a second layer of paper material, and a series of coatings between the paper materials. The coatings include a first flood coating having water and/or barrier properties, a second flood coating having water and/or oil barrier properties, and a third coating that only partially covers the second flood coating. None of the first, second and third coatings comprise a thermoplastic or polyolefin, and are made substantially from one or more biodegradable and/or compostable materials.

Provided herein are products, methods, and kits, for use in regulating the temperature of an object. The present invention relates to thermal insulating liners for regulating the temperature of perishable goods or temperature sensitive products. The thermal insulating liners generally may be dimensioned to fit within a container. The thermal insulating liners may be quickly collapsed and reconstructed to improve stackability and diminish the amount of space required to store the thermal insulating liners prior to use.

The present invention relates to a new multicomponent plastic product comprising at least two different thermoplastic materials, wherein a first thermoplastic material comprises a first thermoplastic polymer, and a second thermoplastic material comprises a second thermoplastic polymer and a drug. According to the invention, the second thermoplastic material has a transformation temperature strictly lower than the transformation temperature of the first thermoplastic material and wherein the first and second plastic materials are at least partially adjacent in the multicomponent product.

A multi-layer polymer film comprising at least one middle layer A, the polymeric constituents of which are soluble in aqueous solution, and in each case at least one substantially water-impermeable covering layer B, C arranged above and below the at least one middle layer A, wherein the layers A, B and C independently of each other in each case comprise at least one thermoplastic polymer and at least one of the covering layers B and C comprises at least one polyhydroxyalkanoate is presented and described. Processes for the production of the multi-layer polymer film according to the invention and its use for the production of molded parts, films or bags are furthermore presented and described.

The present invention relates to a multicomponent plastic product comprising at least two different thermoplastic materials, wherein a first thermoplastic material comprises a first thermoplastic polymer, and a second thermoplastic material comprises at least a second thermoplastic polymer and at least one degrading enzyme able to degrade the first thermoplastic polymer. The second thermoplastic material has a transformation temperature lower than the transformation temperature of the first thermoplastic material, and the first and second plastic materials are at least partially adjacent in the multicomponent product.

The present invention relates to polyethylene compositions. In one aspect, a polyethylene composition comprises (1) a first polyethylene fraction having a single peak in a temperature range of 50° C. to 85° C. in an elution profile via iCCD analysis method, (2) a second polyethylene fraction having a single peak in a temperature range of 85° C. to 100° C. in the elution profile via iCCD analysis method, and (3) a third polyethylene fraction having a single peak in a temperature range of 100° C. to 120° C. in the elution profile via iCCD analysis method, wherein the first polyethylene area fraction comprises 25 to 50% of the total area of the elution profile, wherein the second polyethylene area fraction comprises 30 to 50% of the total area of the elution profile, and wherein the third polyethylene area fraction comprises 15 to 35% of the total area of the elution profile.

The present invention relates to multilayer films. In one aspect, a multilayer film comprises a first polyethylene composition having a density of at least 0.965 g/cm.sup.3 and as further described herein and a second polyethylene composition having a density of 0.924 g/cm.sup.3 to 0.936 g/cm.sup.3 and as further described herein, wherein the multilayer film comprises 40 weight percent or less of the first polyethylene composition based on the total weight of the multilayer film.
