B65B 5300
US Classification:
428 349
Abstract:
A thermoplastic film is provided which is especially suited for use in stretch/cling applications such as, for example, the bundling, packaging and unitizing of foods and other goods. The film comprises a cling layer comprising a polymer of at least ethylene and 2-40 wt % acrylate having a ratio of M. sub. w /M. sub. n less than about 3. 5, a ratio of M. sub. z /M. sub. w less than about 3, a melt index of about 0. 1-30 dg/min, and a melt index swell ratio less than about 1. 6, preferably without a tackifying additive. The film may further comprise a non-cling layer comprising a thermoplastic preferably essentially free of anticling (slip and/or antiblock) additive. Preferred thermoplastic materials include polyethylene and polypropylene.

US Classification:
428515, 428355 RA
Abstract:
The invention concerns films having a cling layer of an elastomeric propylene-based polymer with a low heat of fusion derived from isotactic propylene type crystallinity, as determined by DSC of less than 40 J/g, optionally blended with a crystalline isotactic propylene derived polymer having a heat of fusion over 70 J/g and/or a melting point of at least 120° C. as determined by DSC, and a non-cling layer of a polyolefin. The cling layer may contain other components such as crystalline polypropylene.
