A polymeric substrate is disclosed. The polymeric substrate comprises a barrier layer including a polymeric material comprising about 50 wt. % or more of at least one polyolefin polymer and 50 wt. % or less of a hydrocarbon resin. The polymeric material exhibits a DTUL of 30&#xb0; C. or more and a tensile modulus of 500 MPa or more and/or a flexural secant modulus of 500 MPa or more. The barrier layer has a thickness of greater than 200 &#x3bc;m to 6,500 &#x3bc;m. A shaped polymeric article comprising the polymeric substrate is also disclosed.

Polymeric substrate including a barrier layer

Blended compositions that can include one or more thermoplastic polymers and one or more organic fillers and methods for making and using same. The blended composition can have a Notched Izod Impact Strength of at least 20 J/m to about 600 J/m, measured according to ASTM D256-10, and a melt index of about 1 g/10 min to about 100 g/10 min, measured according to ASTM D1238-13, procedure B. The thermoplastic copolymer can include a blend of a polypropylene homopolymer and a copolymer of propylene and a comonomer. The comonomer can include ethylene, a Cto Colefin, or any mixture thereof. The copolymer of propylene and the comonomer can include about 0.5 wt % to about 40 wt % of the comonomer. The blended composition can include about 5 wt % to about 30 wt % of the organic filler based on the combined weight of the thermoplastic copolymer and the organic filler.
