Abstract:
A laminate and a process for making it are disclosed. The laminate comprises a metal substrate and a polymer layer that adheres to at least one plasma-treated surface of the metal substrate. The polymer layer comprises a blend of a first polyolefin and a grafted polyolefin. The laminate can be prepared by plasma-treating at least one surface of a metal substrate and extruding onto the plasma-treated surface a polymer layer comprising a blend of a first polyolefin and a grafted polyolefin.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an adhesive composition. The adhesive composition comprises from 30 wt % to 65 wt % of a polyolefin, 15 wt % to 65 wt % of a conjugated diene-based elastomer, 0.5 wt % to 15 wt % of an olefin elastomer, and 0.5 wt % to 25 wt % of a maleated polyolefin. The weight ratio of olefin elastomer to conjugated diene-based elastomer is within the range of 0.04 to 1. The adhesive of the invention has improved adhesion to styrenic polymer layer, barrier layer, and polyolefin layer. It is suitable for extruded multilayer films, sheets, and many other related applications.
Abstract:
Multilayer structures having layers of a styrene polymer, polyethylene, propylene polymer, and common tie layers of a styrene-butadiene-styrene triblock copolymer-containing adhesive.
Abstract:
Adhesive compositions comprising a first copolymer of butene-1 and propylene; a second copolymer of ethylene and a comonomer selected from butene-1, hexene-1, and octene-1; a polyolefin grafted with an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid or acid derivative; and an olefin polymer resin, and multilayer structures comprising the adhesive composition.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an adhesive composition. The adhesive composition comprises a polyolefin, a maleated polyolefin, a Bronsted acid, and an antioxidant. The adhesive composition has improved oxidative stability compared with those which do not contain Bronsted acids.

Abstract:
Extrusion and lamination processes are provided for producing multi-layer constructions wherein metal and polyolefin layers are bonded through a tie-layer comprising a base resin and two functionalized ethylene polymers.
Abstract:
Improved multi-phase polypropylene composites are provided. The compositions are comprised of a polypropylene base resin, a non-compatible dispersed phase which can be a polymer or filler material and a propylene-ethylene copolymer grafted with a carboxylic acid or carboxylic acid derivative.
Abstract:
Adhesive blend compositions having significantly improved adhesion to metals at elevated temperatures are provided. The compositions are blends of one or more polyolefin base resins, an acid or acid derivative modified polyolefin and silane modified polyolefin. A low level of adhesion promotor is optionally included in the blend.
Abstract:
Improved grafted propylene copolymer compositions and adhesive blends containing same are provided. The grafts are obtained by reacting propylene-ethylene impact copolymers having specified rubber contents and molecular weight distributions with ethylenically unsaturated acids or acid derivatives, such as maleic anhydride.
