Substantially solvent-free multilayer articles characterized by excellent color retention and gloss retention, solvent resistance and recyclability comprise a substrate layer which may be at least one of polycarbonates, polyesters and ABS and ASA copolymers, and a resinous coating layer which contains resorcinol or alkylresorcinol isophthalate/terephthalate ester units. An intermediate layer may also be present.

Weatherable multilayer resinous articles and method for their preparation

Substantially solvent-free multilayer articles characterized by excellent color retention and gloss retention, solvent resistance and recyclability comprise a substrate layer comprising a first material selected from the group consisting of a metal, ceramic, glass, a cellulosic material, a thermoset resin, and a thermoplastic resin, and a resinous coating layer which comprises resorcinol or alkylresorcinol isophthalate/terephthalate ester units. An intermediate layer may also be present.

Disclosed is an article for the optical storage of data having low birefringence prepared from a mixture of a polycarbonate and a cycloaliphatic polyester. The article may optionally have stabilization and mold release additives that retain transparency, color and processability.

Article for optical data storage device

Multilayer plastic composite articles comprising a thermoplastic resin substrate which can be a polycarbonate, an ABS or ASA resin, a polyphenylene ether or polyphenylene ether/polystyrene blend , an polyester or an admixture of polycarbonate with ABS, ASA or polyester and at least one surface layer comprising a cyloaliphatic polyester or cycloaliphatic polyester blend which is adherent to at least one surface of the substrate. Decorative layers can be located between the substrate and the surface layers.

Multilayer plastic articles

Reinforced, molding compositions having improved ductility and melt flow properties. The present compositions contain a cyclo aliphatic polyester resin preferably comprising the reaction product of a cycloaliphatic C.sub.6 -C.sub.12 diol or chemical equivalent and C.sub.6 -C.sub.12 cycloaliphatic diacid or chemical equivalent, preferably an impact modifying amorphous resin which increases the ductility of the polyester resin but reduces the melt flow properties thereof, a high molecular weight polyetherester polymer which increases the melt flow properties of the polyester polymer without reducing the ductility thereof, and a glass filler to reinforce and stiffen the composition and form a reinforced molding composition.
