摘要:
The present invention includes a composition having a co-continuous interconnecting channel morphology. These co-continuous interconnecting channels are predominately occupied with a polymer and particles that control the percolation through the composition. The particles are composed of a material such as an absorbing agent, releasing agent and/or activation agent. The polymer composition may be used to form a desired shaped article such as plug type inserts and liners for closed containers, or it may be formed into a film, sheet, bead or pellet.

The present invention includes processes and resulting structures for producing moisture absorbing desiccant entrained polymers. A polymer is caused to assume a molten state, typically by applying heat and melting the polymer. To achieve certain results in the hardened end product, such as rigidity and durability, the polymer normally acts as a moisture barrier in a solidified state, both before and after melting. A desiccating agent is blended into the polymer so that the desiccating agent is distributed within the polymer. A channeling agent is also blended into the polymer so that it is distributed within the polymer. Together, the polymer, desiccating agent and channeling agent create a blended mixture. The mixture is solidified so that the channeling agent forms passages in the mixture through which moisture is communicable to desiccating agent that is entrained within the mixture. The solidified mixture may be used to form plug type inserts and liners for closed containers, or it may be used for producing laminated sheeting employed as package wrap.

The present invention pertains to methods of preserving fresh produce with a produce preservative which extends the shelf life of fresh produce, particularly cut fresh produce. The produce preservative preserves the texture, flavor, appearance, crispness, and color of the fresh produce, particularly the exposed surface of the fresh produce. The method comprises the following steps: providing a solution of produce preservative comprising: water, magnesium ions or zinc ions or tin ions; and ascorbate ions, or erythorbate ions; wherein the magnesium ion or zinc ions or tin ions and ascorbate ions are present in a mole ratio of preferably from 0.2:1 to 8:1, more preferably from 0.75:1 to 8:1, more preferably from 1:1 to 4:1, most preferably 1.5:1 to 3:1, applying said produce preservative to the produce; applying said produce preservative to the produce.

The present invention includes processes and resulting structures for producing a modified polymer having channels. The channels act a controlled transmission passages through the polymer. A polymer is caused to assume a molten state, typically by applying heat and melting the polymer. A channeling agent is blended then reacted into the polymer so that it is distributed within the polymer. In one embodiment, an absorbtion additive is then blended into the product so that the absorbtion additive is distributed within the product. The product is solidified so that the channeling agent forms passages in the product through which a desired compound is communicable to additive that is entrained within the product. The solidified product may be used to form plug type inserts and liners for closed containers, or it may be formed into a film, sheet, bead or pellet.

摘要:
A polyolefin container is disclosed which is hermetically sealed with a complementary lid extending across the open container the opposed faces of the container surface and the lid being bonded together by a peelable, heat seal layer intermediate between the opposed faces. The heat seal layer is comprised of a mixture of a particulate filler and first and second polyolefin resins, the second polyolefin resin having a melt flow rate at least about three times greater than the melt flow rate of the first polyolefin resin.

A method of preparing a polar thermoplastic resin having improved resistance to gas permeability is disclosed wherein a blend of the resin and coarse mica flakes having an average particle size of less than about 100 mesh is prepared, the blend being prepared under mixing conditions which impart a shear force to the mica flakes sufficient to delaminate the flakes into individual platelets, substantially increasing the original aspect ratio of the flakes whereby an increase in the gas barrier properties of the resin is attained greater than that attained with fine mica flakes having an average particle size greater than about 100 mesh.
