A multilayer film bonded to a base fabric includes a first layer bonded to the base fabric; and a second layer disposed on the first layer. The first layer, the second layer, or both includes a thermoplastic elastomer. The thermoplastic elastomer is at least one selected from the group consisting of a polyester-based elastomer, a polyurethane-based elastomer, and a polyamide-based elastomer. A melt strength of the multilayer film is greater than or equal to 7.5 mN.

This invention relates to a curable composition comprising: I. a first component comprising a resin having at least one functional group selected from the group consisting of β-ketoester and malonate functional groups, II. a second component comprising at least one curing agent having at least one aldehyde functional group, and III. a third component comprising at least one primary amine or at least one secondary amine, salts thereof, or combinations thereof.

The present invention relates to a semi-crystalline mixture of polyester polyols which recrystallises upon melting and which can be obtained by polycondensing a reaction mixture comprising one or more dicarboxylic acids selected from saturated aliphatic dicarboxylic acids having an even number of at least 8 methylene groups, and one or more diols selected from aliphatic diols which have at least one ether function. The invention also relates to a polymeric material which is obtained from the chemical modification of the mixture of polyester polyols with organic compounds which contain at least one isocyonate group and/or epoxide group. The mixtures and materials according to the invention are characterised by relatively low melting enthalpies, while the melting temperature can be set in a range of −30 to 60° C., meaning that it is possible to obtain easily fusible formulations containing the mixtures and materials according to the invention. The mixtures and materials according to the invention also provide such formulations with a high elasticity and breaking resistance. The present invention therefore includes the use of the polyester polyols and polymeric materials according to the invention as deforming, fusing, and extrusion means in thermoplastic materials, and the use thereof for producing adhesives and sealants, in particular hot-melt adhesives and reactive adhesives.

A semicrystalline copolyester resin composition formed by twin screw extrusion of various ingredients includes copolyester resins, antiblock, slip and antifog additives. This semicrystalline copolyester resin can be extruded on to PET film or coextruded with PET resin to form clear PET films with antifog properties. These films with antifog properties are produced in a single step without the use of solvent and does not involve any secondary step for coating a separate antifog layer. This minimizes the cost and time required by a converter to make such clear antifog films. These films containing the heat seal copolyester resin can be heat sealed to clear APET trays. Contents within the trays, such as food, can be seen without fogging on the inside of the film that is used to seal the tray. The seals are strong and the peels are smooth giving a very good packaging performance.
