Hybrid fibers or filaments are extruded from a granulate mixture of bio-based polymers with petrochemical-based plastic polymers to form a textile substrate band and the band is then provided with an adhesive coating on at least one face of the substrate band to form an adhesive tape. This tape is then wound helically around a cable bundle to form a longitudinally extending wrap of the bundle and impart to the cable bundle an abrasion resistance of at least class C according to LV 319 (2009).

A water activated tape and method of producing is provided, the tape comprising a repulpable material, a water-soluble material affixed to the repulpable material, and a water activated adhesive layer affixed to the water-soluble material.

Provided is an optical laminate having excellent resistance to the pressure from the surface and a display device including the same. The optical laminate includes a surface protective layer, a first pressure sensitive adhesive layer, a light absorption anisotropic layer, and a second pressure sensitive adhesive layer in this order, in which an indentation elastic modulus of the first pressure sensitive adhesive layer is greater than an indentation elastic modulus of the light absorption anisotropic layer, the light absorption anisotropic layer is a layer formed of a composition for forming a light absorption anisotropic layer containing a liquid crystal compound and a dichroic substance, and a thickness of the light absorption anisotropic layer is less than 5 m.

An ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer composition, a single-layer film and a multilayer structure containing the same. The ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer composition includes an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, an antioxidant, and a fluorine-containing compound; and the ratio of the antioxidant content to the fluorine content is 0.5 to 65. Thereby, the film containing said ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer composition not only has good heat resistance, but also can avoid the situation that a large number of gels are generated during the preparation process.
