The present disclosure concerns herbicide granules and powders containing a high-load of fluroxypyr-meptyl. The granules exhibit good storage stability and good herbicidal efficacy when added to water and applied by spray application to control unwanted plant growth.

Solid herbicide compositions containing fluroxypyr-meptyl

The invention provides a film comprising at least two layers, a first layer and a second layer; and wherein the first layer is formed from a first composition comprising a polyester and/or a polylactic acid; and wherein the second layer is formed from a second composition comprising at least the following: A) a functionalized ethylene-based polymer, and B) at least one ethylene/alkylacrylate copolymer.

Films containing functional ethylene-based polymer compositions

Compositions are provided that comprise: (1) a polymer selected from the group consisting of: (A) an ethylene/&#x3b1;-olefin multiblock interpolymer; (B) a propylene based plastomer or elastomer; and (C) a mixture of (A) and (B); (2) from about 1 to about 75 weight percent filler based on the weight of the composition; and (3) an effective amount of tackifier.

Heat-resistant polyolefin compositions suitable for films

The invention provides a film comprising at least two layers, a first layer and a second layer; and wherein the first layer is formed from a first composition comprising a polyester, a polylactic acid, or a combination thereof; and wherein the second layer is formed from a second composition comprising at least the following: A) functionalized ethylene-based polymer, and B) ethylene/alpha-olefin interpolymer; and wherein the first layer is adjacent to the second layer.

Films containing functional ethylene-based polymer composition

The present disclosure provides a food contact article. The food contact article includes a polymeric composition composed of a neat olefin block copolymer. The food contact article exhibits a total color change value, &#x394;E, of less than 20. The polymeric composition provides an article that is suitable for food contact application, the article having softness and stain resistance.

Stain resistant article with olefin block copolymer and process

The present disclosure provides an oil-extended olefin block copolymer composition. The oil-extended olefin block copolymer composition includes an olefin block copolymer, an oil, and a surface-active agent and may optionally include an olefin-based polymer. The oil-extended olefin block copolymer composition advantageously exhibits reduced, or no, oil-bleed.

Vehicles for delivery and release of pesticide compositions are provided. In one aspect, the delivery vehicle is a capsule configured to resist release of a pesticide composition before application of the capsule at a locus where pest control is desired. The capsule is further configured to degrade following application at the locus where pest control is desired to facilitate release of the pesticide composition. In one particular but non-limiting form, the capsule includes a shell wall including a relatively high Bloom strength gelatin material and a plasticizer material, and the pesticide composition includes a fumigant such as 1,3-dichloropropene. Further embodiments, forms, objects, features, advantages, aspects, and benefits shall become apparent from the description and drawings.

Pesticide composition delivery vehicles

Disclosed are oil-extended olefin block copolymer compositions with low, or no, tack. A unique comonomer content in the soft segment of the OBC in conjunction with the presence of a polyolefin provides the present oil-extended OBC composition with softness, low (or no) tack, and low (or no) oil-bleed.

Olefin block copolymer composition with low tack

The instant invention provides coated polymeric particulates, and a method for producing polymeric particulates. The coated polymeric particulates according to the present invention comprise (a) one or more polymeric particulates; and (b) a coating composition present on at least a portion of at least one surface of said polymeric particulate, wherein said coating composition comprises a dispersion comprising: (1) one or more base polymers, (2) one or more stabilizing agents; (3) one or more biocide agents; (4) one or more neutralizing agents; and (5) water.

Coated polymeric particulates, and a process for coating polymeric particulates

Thermoplastic elastomer compositions including at least one elastomeric component and at least one semi-crystalline polymer are provided. In particular, thermoplastic elastomer composition characterized by an SRI less than or equal to 1.6 at 10000 Pa s, and less than 4.5 at 1000 Pa s for compositions with TMA at 1000 &#x3bc;m greater than 85&#xb0; C. are provided. Also provided are articles made from the thermoplastic elastomeric compositions.

Thermoplastic elastomer for cold and wet applications

Disclosed are oil-extended olefin block copolymer compositions with microcrystalline wax. The microcrystalline wax reduces oil-bleed while maintaining composition softness.

Bleed resistant, oil-extended olefin block copolymer composition with microcrystalline wax

Disclosed are oil-extended olefin block copolymer compositions with precipitated silica. The precipitated silica reduces oil-bleed while maintaining composition softness.

Bleed resistant, oil-extended olefin block copolymer composition with precipitated silica

The invention provides a composition comprising at least one olefin multi-block interpolymer; at least one functionalized olefin-based polymer; and optionally at least one thermoplastic polyurethane. The invention also provides for articles prepared from the inventive compositions and for methods for making the same.

Polyolefin compositions and articles prepared therefrom, and methods for making the same

The invention provides polyolefin blend compositions of polar and/or non-polar polymers, with at least one functionalized polyolefin polymer selected from the group consisting of: amine functionalized, hydroxyl functionalized, imide functionalized, anhydride functionalized, or carboxylic acid functionalized polyolefin polymers. The invention also provides methods for making the functionalized polyolefin polymer. The invention also provides for materials and articles containing at least one component prepared from such compositions.
