摘要:
A packaging article has tear initiators for initiating a manual tear that can be propagated to open a package and allow a product to be readily removed therefrom, without the use of a knife or scissors or any other implement. The packaging article is made from a heat-shrinkable multilayer film having at least one layer containing an incompatible polymer blend, and/or a layer containing an inorganic filler, and/or a layer having a high Young's modulus. The film also has a Peak Load Impact Strength of at least 50 Newtons per mil, The tear initiators can be used to generate a manual machine direction tears to open the package, with the manual machine direction tear being capable of propagating in the machine direction to the opposite edge of the packaging article. A process for making a package and manually opening the package is also disclosed.

A heat-shrinkable bag has a means for initiating a manual tear that can be propagated to open the bag and allow a product to be readily removed therefrom, without the use of a knife or scissors or any other implement. The bag is made from a heat-shrinkable multilayer film having a Peak Load Impact Strength of at least 50 Newtons per mil. The means for initiating tearing results in a first tear in the first side of the bag, and a second tear in the second side of the bag. The first tear and the second tear are each capable of being manually propagated through a heat seal and across the bag, or down the length of the bag, with the tear being capable of being manually propagated through and to an opposite bag edge, so that the product inside a package can be readily removed from the bag. A process for making a package and manually opening the package, comprises placing a product inside the bag, sealing the bag closed, shrinking the film around the product, manually initiating and manually propagating the first and second tears, and readily removing the product from the bag.

A multilayer film, which is particularly suited to packaging of cheese on a Hayssen® RT packaging machine, has a first layer comprising cyclic olefin copolymer having a glass transition temperature of at least 125° C., and a second layer comprising at least one member selected from the group consisting of cyclic olefin copolymer having a glass transition temperature of at least 125° C., polyamide, polyester, and polystyrene. The first and second layers are on opposite sides of a tensile axis of symmetry of the film. The film exhibits from 0 to 45 degrees of transverse edge curl, a yield point of at least 1200 psi at a temperature of 85° C., and an elongation at break of from 0 to 300 percent at 85° C. In addition, a packaging process comprises supplying the film and placing a plurality of product units on the flat film at desired intervals, forwarding the flat film having product units thereon, while forming a tubing from the flat film so that product is inside the tubing, followed by sealing the film along its length and transversely (upstream and downstream of the product), so that the product is a discrete packaged product is formed.

A multilayer active oxygen barrier film includes at least one bulk layer and a microlayer section including a plurality of microlayers, at least one of which includes an active oxygen barrier. The microlayer section can comprise at least one microlayer comprising an active oxygen barrier, and at least one microlayer comprising a passive oxygen barrier. A method of making a multilayer active oxygen barrier film is also disclosed, in which a bulk layer is extruded, a plurality of microlayers is coextruded to form a microlayer section; and said bulk layer and said microlayer section are merged to form a multilayer film and wherein the plurality of microlayers includes an active oxygen barrier.

A multilayer oxygen barrier film includes at least one bulk layer and a microlayer section including a plurality of adjoining microlayers including ethylene/vinyl alcohol copolymer, wherein the plurality of adjoining microlayers includes at least one microlayer including a first ethylene/vinyl alcohol copolymer having a first ethylene content, and at least one microlayer including a second ethylene/vinyl alcohol copolymer having an ethylene content different from the ethylene content of the first ethylene/vinyl alcohol copolymer. Methods of making a multilayer oxygen barrier film are also disclosed, e.g. in which a bulk layer is extruded, a plurality of adjoining microlayers is coextruded to form a microlayer section; and said bulk layer and microlayer section are merged to form a multilayer film; wherein the plurality of adjoining microlayers is as recited above.

A package includes a thermoformed web or support member, an optical data storage medium disposed in a cavity of the thermoformed web, or on the support member; and a covering web disposed on the optical data storage medium, and on the thermoformed web or support member, and in sealing relationship to the thermoformed web or support member; where each of the thermoformed web or support member, and the covering web, includes an oxygen barrier; and where at least one of the thermoformed web or support member, and the covering web, includes an oxygen scavenger. Methods of making the package are also disclosed. In addition to, or alternatively to including the oxygen scavenger in at least one of the thermoformed or support member, and the covering web, the oxygen scavenger can be disposed on the optical medium, e.g. in the form of a disc, coating, label, pellet, wafer, or flattened sachet.
