Abstract:
It provides laminates and articles formed from such laminates. In one aspect, a laminate comprises (a) a biaxially oriented polyethylene (BOPE) film comprising a polyethylene composition, wherein the polyethylene composition has a density of 0.910 to 0.940 g/cm3, an MWHDF>95 greater than 135 kg/mol and an IHDF >95 greater than 42 kg/mol, wherein the BOPE film comprises at least 50 weight percent of the polyethylene composition based on the weight of the BOPE film; (b) a barrier adhesive layer comprising polyurethane; and (c) a polyethylene film, wherein the barrier adhesive layer adheres the BOPE film to the polyethylene film and wherein the laminate has an oxygen gas transmission rate of 700 cc/[m2-day] or less when measured according to ASTM D3985-05.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a multilayer film comprising a first layer and a second layer; and a tie layer; where the tie layer comprises a crystalline block composite and where the tie layer is disposed between the first layer and the second layer; the first layer being disposed on a first surface of the tie layer; the second layer being disposed on a second surface of the tie layer; where the second surface is opposedly disposed to the first surface; where the crystalline block composite comprises a crystalline ethylene based polymer, a crystalline alpha-olefin based polymer and a block copolymer comprising a crystalline ethylene block and a crystalline alpha-olefin block.
