A mineral-compatible cationic emulsion composition with polymer stabilizers, and methods for utilizing same in paving and other applications is disclosed. In one aspect, a bitumen-in-water emulsion composition includes at least one bitumen material, at least one polymer stabilizer, at least one emulsifier, and water, where the emulsifier is a cationic surfactant, an amphoteric surfactant, or a mixture of both, and the polymer stabilizer is a natural or synthetic cationic polymer consisting of alkylene polyamines, alkyl polyamines, polyquaternary polymers, polyvinylamine, polyvinylimidazoline, polyester polyquaternary polymers, polyether polyquaternary polymers, or mixtures thereof. The inclusion of polymer stabilizer in the cationic emulsion increases the stability of the emulsion and increases the compatibility of the cationic emulsion with negatively charged minerals.

The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a multilayer laminate, the multilayer laminate obtained by the method according to the invention and to forming an extrusion primer for making the multilayer laminate using an aqueous coating composition comprising at least one specific copolymer.

The aim of the invention is to provide polyester/primer/metallic coating composite films having good adherence of the metallic coating in dry and humid conditions. Said films also form a good gas barrier: oxygen permeability less than or equal to 0.8 cc/m2/d; water vapour permeability less than or equal to 0.3 g/m2/d. To this end, the invention concerns a composite film comprising a polyester substrate, at least one coating adhering on at least one of the faces of the substrate and at least one layer of primer for cross-linked adhesion between the substrate and the coating. Said primer comprises at least one acrylic and/or methacrylic polymer P1, at least one acrylic and/or methacrylic polymer P2 different from P1, at least one cross-linking agent, and, preferably, at least one polyester that is soluble or dispersible in water: —P1 having a gel content TG1>70% by dry weight with respect to P1; —P2 having a gel content TG2≤TG1 and ≤20% by dry weight, with respect to P2; —P1 having a surface-grafted free weak acid content≥0.8 in meq/g of polymer; —[P2]≤60% by weight on dry by weight in respect to P1+P2. The method for producing said film, the adhering primer, and the articles obtained using said film, also form part of the present invention.
