Essentially Amorphous, Non-Chlorinated Polymeric Barrier Films And Method Of Using Such Films

View page
US Patent:
6455161, Sep 24, 2002
Filed:
Jun 28, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/605496
Inventors:
Francois J. F. Regnier - Weyersheim, FR
Rochelle A. Woods - Midland MI
Harvey C. Tung - Newark OH
Jeffrey E. Bonekamp - Midland MI
Assignee:
Dow Global Technologies Inc. - Midland MI
International Classification:
B32B 2708
US Classification:
428412, 428413, 4284231, 4284744, 428480, 428483, 428515, 428516, 428517, 428519, 428520, 428521, 428522, 428523, 604332, 604338, 604339
Abstract:
Essentially amorphous non-chlorinated polymeric films are provided which are effective barriers to odors and organic molecules, making them particularly useful for ostomy bags (colostomy, ileostomy), trans-dermal delivery systems (TDDS), cosmetic patches, incontinence bags, medical collection bags, parenteral solution bags, and food packaging, as well as for protective clothing and soil fumigation applications. The barrier layers of the present invention can be used as monolayers or can be a component film of a multilayer structure. The barrier films may be used with or without other film layers that promote reduced noise emission. Alternately, single and multi-layer films may omit the barrier layer in favor of the reduced noise emission layers.

US Patent:
6818163, Nov 16, 2004
Filed:
Nov 16, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/890907
Inventors:
Richard F. Fibiger - Midland MI
Kyung W. Suh - Midland MI
Mark A. Barger - Midland MI
Joseph A. Schomaker - Mt. Pleasant MI
Wenbin Liang - Sugar Land TX
George A. Mackey - Newark OH
Harvey C. Tung - Newark OH
Assignee:
Dow Global Technologies Inc. - Midland MI
International Classification:
B29C 4402
US Classification:
264 51, 264108
Abstract:
An improved process for making a structural foamed polymer, a multilayer polymer film, sheet or tube, a pultrusion polymer profile, a compression molded extruded fiber reinforced polymer pre-form, a strand foamed polymer and a SCORIM formed polymer article. The improvement includes the step of dispersing a multi-layered silicate material with the polymer so that the polymer has dispersed therein single layers of silicate material, double layers of silicate material, triple layers of silicate material, four layers of silicate material, five layers of silicate material and more than five layers of silicate material, the volume percent of the one, two, three, four and five layers of silicate material greater than the volume percent of the more then five layers of silicate material. In each of the above embodiments an important benefit of the instant invention is the orientation of the plane of the layers of silicate material. Preferably, most of the layers of silicate material have substantially the same orientation within thirty degrees of angle.

Plastic Adhesive Labels For Glass Substrates

View page
US Patent:
57120315, Jan 27, 1998
Filed:
Mar 6, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/610560
Inventors:
Robert H. Kelch - Granville OH
Harvey C. Tung - Newark OH
Assignee:
The Dow Chemical Company - Midland MI
International Classification:
B32B 712
US Classification:
428355
Abstract:
A multilayer film useful for making plastic adhesive labels for glass substrates such as glass bottles. The multilayer films contain a base layer, an adhesive layer, and optionally an intermediate layer to improve interlayer bonding between the base layer and the adhesive layer. The adhesive layer comprises a terpolymer of ethylene, 3-10 weight percent of an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid (e. g. acrylic acid or methyacrylic acid), and 3-25 weight percent of an unsaturated ester (e. g. , methyl, ethyl, or n-butyl acrylate or methacrylate). The base layer preferably comprises oriented polypropylene or oriented polyester, but may also comprise high density polyethylene or PETG. The multilayer film can be utilized in conventional graphics printing operations and do not require the use of a separate release liner. Labels made from films of the present invention exhibit sufficient adhesion to glass substrates to withstand washing/rinsing, filling, and pasteurization processes utilized in the bottling industry.

US Patent:
57561737, May 26, 1998
Filed:
Sep 12, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/712817
Inventors:
Harvey C. Tung - Newark OH
Steve Skapik - Granville OH
Assignee:
The Dow Chemical Company - Midland MI
International Classification:
B32B 700
US Classification:
428 401
Abstract:
A deformable label comprising a printable film facestock having at least one layer containing incompatible polymers. The printable film facestock exhibits significantly reduced die-face buildup during extrusion of the printable film facestock when compared to the die-face buildup exhibited by film facestock of the prior art.

Appl. No.:
8/216905
Inventors:
Scott I. Allen - Newark OH
Michael Ferguson - Granville OH
Harvey Tung - Newark OH
Assignee:
The Dow Chemical Company - Midland MI
International Classification:
B32B 2708
US Classification:
428 341
Abstract:
An oxygen and moisture impermeable multilayer barrier film which is free of halogens and which may be produced by coextrusion or lamination techniques is provided. The film provides excellent adhesion between layers, has quietness, odor barrier, and softness characteristics, and provides a heat sealable surface for the fabrication of bags. The barrier film includes a halogen-free barrier layer and at least one heat sealable skin layer. The heat sealable skin layer includes either a thermoplastic polyurethane, a substantially linear copolymer of ethylene and an. alpha. -olefin having a density in the range of from about 0. 87-0. 92 gm/cc and from about 0. 01 to 3 long chain branches/1000 carbon atoms along the polymer backbone, a homogeneously-branched linear polyolefin resin, or a blend of an ultra low density polyolefin resin with a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate.
