Abstract:
A transparent article includes a continuous polyester matrix having at least one incompatible filler dispersed therein. The incompatible filler provides domains in the polyester matrix, each domain having a particular dimension, thus providing a range of dimensions for the domains in the article. To create haze, the dimensions are within the range of from about 380 nm to about 720 nm. Once the range of dimensions is determined, a light absorbent composition can be found which absorbs light at a range of wavelengths that at least substantially covers the range of dimensions of the domains. In doing so, it has been found that the haze of the article can be substantially masked. Method for producing the article and for masking the haze are also provided.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a composition for forming a film and its resultant film which has a high level of adhesiveness to a substrate and has good gas barrier properties. The composition for forming a film is prepared by adding a silane coupling agent to an aqueous dispersion liquid in which a cellulose nanofiber is dispersed in an aqueous medium. In addition, the composition for forming a film is also prepared by blending an aqueous dispersion liquid (a) which contains a cellulose nanofiber and has a pH 4-9 with a hydrolysis liquid (b) which contains alkoxysilane hydrolysates and has a pH 2-4 by a weight ratio of “cellulose nanofiber”/“alkoxysilane (in terms of SiO2)” in the range from 0.1 to 5.

A gas barrier laminate is provided that can maintain excellent gas barrier properties of a cellulose film even under high humidity and that can suppress entry or permeation of water vapor or dirt, which cause deterioration, into the film. The gas barrier laminate includes a base material, and a gas barrier layer provided on at least one side of the base material. The gas barrier layer contains at least cellulose fibers and one or more kinds of water-soluble polymer. Additionally, the fiber width of the cellulose fibers falls within a range of 3 nm to 50 nm.
Abstract:
In order to maintain adequate bond strength of a composite in which a gas barrier coating comprising a clay dispersion and a polymer solution or dispersion of a PVA and/or EVA is positioned between two flexible plastics films using an adhesive, it is necessary that the clay dispersion and the polymer solution or dispersion should be kept separate until shortly before they are to be applied.
