An object of the present invention is to provide a resin composition for an odor-adsorbing molded article that is excellent in manufacturability, eliminates odor by exerting a high adsorbing effect on odorous organic matter originally contained in packaging materials and odor generated by the decomposition, etc. of resins constituting packages during disinfection/sterilization treatment such as UV irradiation, hot packing, boiling, γ ray irradiation, or EB irradiation, is less likely to desorb the odor once adsorbed and capable of efficiently adsorbing odor and therefore exerts a high adsorbing effect over a long period without reducing the ability to adsorb odor, and is excellent in resistance to change in taste and odor of contents, and an odor-adsorbing molded article prepared from the resin composition for an odor-adsorbing molded article. The present invention provides a resin composition for an odor-adsorbing molded article comprising at least thermoplastic resin A and an odor adsorbent material, wherein the odor adsorbent material comprises hydrophobic zeolite having a SiO.sub.2/Al.sub.2O.sub.3 molar ratio of 30/1 to 8000/1, and a melt flow rate of the thermoplastic resin A is 5 g/min or more and 100 g/min or less, and an odor-adsorbing molded article prepared from the resin composition for an odor-adsorbing molded article.

The present invention relates to a thermally expandable composition comprising at least one peroxidically crosslinking polymer which does not contain glycidyl (meth) acrylate as a monomer in copolymerized form; at least one polymer, which is polymerized with glycidyl (meth) acrylate as a monomer present in a proportion of from 2 to 20% by weight, based on the respective polymer; at least one peroxide; and at least one endothermic chemical propellant, moldings containing this composition, and a method for sealing and filling cavities in components, for reinforcing or stiffening components, in particular hollow components, and for bonding movable components using such molded bodies.

The present disclosure discloses a low-water-vapor-permeability polyolefin-elastomer film and its preparation method. The film comprises: 50-100 mass parts of a matrix resin, 0-40 mass parts of a modified resin, 0.001-2 mass parts of an activator, 0.1-3 mass parts of an organic peroxide, 0.02-5 mass parts of an assistant cross-linker, 0.02-2 mass parts of a silane coupling agent, 0.005-2 mass parts of a light stabilizer, and 0-20 mass parts of a water blocking filler. In the present disclosure, by adding the modified resin and the activator that have an active group, a cross-linking degree and a cross-linking density of the film are improved, and a water-vapor permeability is reduced; by adding the water blocking filler, the water blocking property of the film is further improved, thereby ensuring reliability of the assembly, and prolonging service life of the assembly.

This disclosure relates to ethylene interpolymer product having intermediate branching. Intermediate branching was defined as branching that was longer than the branch length due to comonomer and shorter than the entanglement molecular weight (M.sub.e). Intermediately branched ethylene interpolymer products were produced in a continuous solution polymerization process employing an intermediate branching catalyst formulation. Intermediately branched ethylene interpolymer products were characterized by a Non-Comonomer Index Distribution (NCID.sub.i), a melt index from 0.3 to 500 dg/minute, a density from 0.858 to 0.965 g/cm.sup.3, a polydispersity (M.sub.w/M.sub.n) from about 2 to about 25 and a CDBI.sub.50 from about 10% to about 98%. A method based on triple detection cross fractionation chromatography (3D-CFC) was disclosed to measure NCID.sub.i.
