Latest Patents

One of his latest patents is titled "Polyester film having latent shrink properties and process for producing same." This invention describes a film layer capable of shrinking when subjected to energy, such as heat. The film can be formed and then stretched in one or two directions at a relatively low temperature, improving its shrink properties. The film layer is comprised of a non-modified polyester, such as polyethylene terephthalate, which is produced by reacting terephthalic acid with ethylene glycol or polyethylene glycol.

Another notable patent is for a "Release coated polymer film." This invention provides a coated polymer film with release properties. The film includes a self-supporting polymer film layer and a release coating that can be applied to alternate substrates. The release coating consists of a cross-linkable acrylic and a polyolefin wax, with the option to include a polysiloxane in combination with one or both of the acrylic and polyolefin wax.
