摘要:
Compositions and methods for improving the adhesion of a film to a nonwoven, a film to another film, or a nonwoven to another nonwoven are disclosed. Depending on the laminate or multilaminate structure, the improvement can be achieved by using low viscosity, low density ethylene- or propylene-based polymers, which physically anchor to the substrate, such as a porous nonwoven, or by using a similar polymer in a blend with one of the substrate film polymers to improve flow and adhesion.

The present invention is a method for increasing the melt strength of a polyethylene resin comprising reacting the polyethylene resin with a free radical generator with a decomposition energy in between −50 kJoule/mole and −250 kJoules/mole and a peak decomposition temperature of less than 280 degree C. The resulting resin has increased melt strength with higher ratio of elongational viscosities at 0.1 to 100 rad/s when compared to substantially similar polyethylene resins which have not been reacted with a free radical generator such as an alkoxy amine derivative.
