    Abstract: Methods for the hydrogenation of aromatic-containing polymers are described. A method includes hydrogenation of polymers by contacting a polymer solution that includes an aromatic-containing polymer and a mixture of a non-polar solvent and a polar solvent having a dielectric constant greater than 7.6 at 25° C. and a non-polar solvent having a dielectric constant of 5 or less at 25° C. with a hydrogenation catalyst to produce polymer composition that includes at least one hydrogenated and/or at least one partially hydrogenated aromatic ring. The polar to non-polar solvent volume ratio ranges from 10:90 to 80:20.

    Abstract: The present invention related to a film comprising multiple co-extruded film layers, the film having a length and a width, and a thickness defined as the dimension of the film perpendicular to the plane defined by the length and the width, wherein the film is a bi-axially oriented film comprising at least a core layer A, having a first and a second surface, and one or two sealing layer(s) B, wherein the core layer A comprises a polypropylene, and wherein the sealing layer B comprises >50.0 wt % of a polyethylene comprising moieties derived from ethylene and moieties derived from an α-olefin comprising 4 to 10 carbon atoms, the polyethylene having a density of ≥870 and ≤920 kg/m3 as determined in accordance with ASTM D1505 (2010), with regard to the total weight of the sealing layer B, wherein the sealing layer B directly adheres to one of the first or second surface of the core layer A. Such film allows for the production of a sealed package having a sufficiently high sealing strength at reduced sealing temperatures, also referred to as the seal initiation temperature.

    Abstract: An emulsion polymerization process of manufacturing a graft polymer composition with a reduced residual monomer content includes feeding a vinyl aromatic monomer, an unsaturated nitrile, and a first portion of an initiator to a reactor having a temperature of 50 to 63° C., the reactor containing an initial reaction system comprising water and a diene emulsion. After 10% to 35% of the first portion of the initiator has been added, the reactor temperature is increased to 65 to 85° C. The polymerization reaction runs for 0 to 30 minutes, then a second portion of the initiator and a third monomer are added, and the reaction is allowed to proceed for a second non-charging reaction time to produce the graft polymer composition. In the process, the vinyl aromatic monomer and the unsaturated nitrile are fed to the reactor in 10 to 40 minutes. The process time can be less than 145 minutes.
