A method for making low shrink polyester films wherein the films are arranged in stacks, tentered, heat treated, and relaxed in unison. Also, polyester films produced by such method.

A method for making low shrink polyester films wherein the films are arranged in stacks, tentered, heat treated, and relaxed in unison. Also, polyester films produced by such method.

The present invention relates to a polyester film and a preparation method thereof. The polyester film is formed of a polyester resin having a specific content of isosorbide and diethylene glycol introduced therein, containing a low content of oligomer, and exhibiting a specific intrinsic viscosity, thereby exhibiting excellent mechanical properties, heat resistance and chemical resistance, and good heat sealability.

A monolayer multi-axial integral geogrid suitable for stabilizing aggregate includes a plurality of interconnected oriented strands and partially oriented junctions forming a repeating pattern of outer hexagons having an array of openings therein. Oriented ribs extending inwardly from each of said outer hexagons support and surround a smaller inner hexagon having oriented strands thus forming a plurality of trapezoidal openings and a single hexagonal opening. The oriented strands and partially oriented junctions of the outer hexagons form a plurality of linear strong axis strands that extend continuously throughout the entirety of the geogrid and form additional triangular openings. The geogrid thus includes three different repeating geometric shapes. The inner hexagons preferably also can move up and down, out of the plane of the geogrid. The multi-axial integral geogrid thus provides a geometry that can better engage with, confine and stabilize a greater variety and quality of aggregates.

To provide a biaxially oriented polyamide film, even as a product that is close to an end of a mill roll, having favorable mechanical characteristics, thermal characteristics, and few S-shape curling due to moisture absorption after being made into a bag. A biaxially oriented polyamide film formed of a polyamide resin containing not lower than 60% by mass of polyamide 6, wherein a molecular orientation angle of the film is not smaller than 20°, a strain at moisture absorption of the film is not higher than 1.3%, an impact strength of the film is not lower than 0.8 J/15 μm, and a heat shrinkage rate, after heating for ten minutes at 160° C., of the film is 0.6 to 3.0% in both an MD direction and a TD direction.

The present disclosure is directed to a film formulation that resulted in a substantially non-migratory cold seal release film with improved blocking resistance. Specifically, the multilayered biaxially oriented polypropylene film can include a core layer of polypropylene homopolymer; a first outer layer on one side of the core layer that can be suitable for sealing, printing, or coating; and a second outer layer on the opposite side of the core layer that is a blocking resistant layer comprising thermoplastic polymers which reduce blocking tendency.

A film for coating a metal sheet, the film satisfying that: a ratio (E.sub.MD/E.sub.TD) of a Young's modulus E.sub.MD in a lengthwise direction to a Young's modulus E.sub.TD in a width direction is 1.1 to 4.0; and a thermal shrinkage rate, measured by a thermo-mechanical analyzer, in both lengthwise and width directions at 200° C. is equal to or smaller than 20%.

A biaxially-oriented film is disclosed having at least the layers (A) and (B), wherein layer (A) contains a polyethylene of a low molecular weight and layer (B) contains a polyethylene of a higher molecular weight, wherein layer (A) contains at least percent by weight of the polyethylene of low molecular weight, and layer (B) contains at least percent by weight of the polyethylene of high molecular weight and the film has a porosity in the range from 30 to 70%. The film may additionally be provided with a ceramic coating. A method for producing such a film by the Evapore process is disclosed.
