The present invention provides coated films and packages formed from such films. In one aspect, a partially coated film comprises (a) a film having two outer surfaces, wherein a first outer surface is provided by a film layer that comprises from 70 to 100 percent by weight of a polyolefin having a density of 0.860 to 0.965 g/cm.sup.3; and (b) a coating on the first outer surface of the film comprising polyurethane, wherein the coating covers less than 25% of the surface area of the first outer surface of the film and wherein the coated portion of the film exhibits an Elmendorf tear in at least one of the machine direction or cross direction that is at least 20% less than the Elmendorf tear of the uncoated portion in the same direction, with the Elmendorf tear being measured in accordance with ASTM D1922.

A coating composition is described that can be completely biodegradable and well suited for use in laminating films to substrates. The coating composition contains a biodegradable polymer, such as a polyvinyl alcohol polymer. The coating composition can be applied to a biodegradable film and then adhered to a substrate, such as a paper substrate.

Disclosed are a protective coating composition for an electronic board and a method for preparing the same. The protective coating composition includes urethane-modified alkyd resins that can prevent poor grounding caused by low molecular weight siloxanes generated in a conventional silicone-type coating compositions and preventing performance degradation caused by tin whisker growth while lowering emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a coating composition comprising a first thermoplastic resin suspended in a liquid medium, and a second thermoplastic resin in the form of solid particles, wherein the second thermoplastic resin is incorporated but insoluble in the liquid medium.

The present invention relates to a transparent, peelable polyester film incorporating at least one biaxially oriented polyester film (=base layer (B)) and at least one peelable covering layer (A) coated offline thereon, in which the covering layer (A) is at least 85 wt. % made up of a polyester of aromatic and aliphatic dicarboxylic acids and aliphatic diols, and the arithmetic mean value of the absolute ordinate values S.sub.b of the covering layer (A) is less than 300 nm and the reduced peak height S.sub.pk of the covering layer (A) is less than 700 nm. The invention further relates to a production process for this peelable film and use thereof as sealing film for APET and/or RPET meal trays.
