Provided are multilayer structures and articles comprising same. The multilayer structure comprises: a biaxially-oriented polyethylene film comprising a skin layer with a matte surface and a core, the core comprising one or more core layers; a sealant film; and an adhesive adhering the sealant film to the matte surface of the skin layer of the biaxially-oriented polyethylene film. The multilayer structure can exhibit an enhanced adhesive bonding force in comparison to other multilayer structures.

Multilayer structures with enhanced adhesive bonding force and articles comprising the same

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to laminates comprising a uniaxially oriented first multilayer film comprising ethylene-based polymer, wherein the uniaxially oriented first multilayer film has a ratio of percent elongation at break in the cross direction to percent elongation at break in the machine direction of at least 2 to 1; and a biaxially oriented second multilayer film adhered to the uniaxially oriented first multilayer film and comprising an ethylene-based polymer, wherein the biaxially oriented second multilayer film has a ratio of percent elongation at break in the machine direction to percent elongation at break in the cross direction of at least 2 to 1.

Laminate structures and flexible packaging materials incorporating same

The present disclosure is concerned with a method of forming a seal with a polyethylene based film structure. The polyethylene based film structure has at least one layer formed with an oriented polyethylene having a predetermined melting temperature (T). A conductive heat sealing device provides heat to form the seal, where a first sealing bar of the conductive heat sealing device operates at a first operating temperature of at least 10 degrees Celsius (° C.) below the Tof the oriented polyethylene in the polyethylene based film structure and a second sealing bar of the conductive heat sealing device operates at a second operating temperature of at least 15° C. higher than the operating temperature of the first sealing bar. The seal formed with the polyethylene based film structure retains at least 99 percent of its original surface area prior to forming the seal.

Polyethylene pouch and the fabrication method thereof

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to laminates comprising a uniaxially oriented first multilayer film comprising ethylene-based polymer, wherein the uniaxially oriented first multilayer film has a ratio of percent elongation at break in the cross direction to percent elongation at break in the machine direction of at least 2 to 1; a biaxially oriented second multilayer film adhered to the uniaxially oriented first multilayer film and comprising an ethylene-based polymer, wherein the biaxially oriented second multilayer film has a ratio of percent elongation at break in the machine direction to percent elongation at break in the cross direction of at least 2 to 1; and a third film adhered to the biaxially oriented second multilayer film such that the biaxially oriented second multilayer film is disposed between the uniaxially oriented first multilayer film and the third film, wherein the third film comprises an ethylene-based polymer.

A biaxially-oriented polyethylene (BOPE) multilayer film comprises a skin layer with a matte surface and a core, the skin layer with a matte surface comprising, in weight percent (wt %) based upon the weight of the skin layer: (1) from 20 to 80 wt % of an ethylene-based polymer, and (2) from 80 to 20 wt % of a propylene-based polymer; each of the ethylene-based polymer and the propylene-based polymer having a storage modulus, with a difference between the storage modulus of the ethylene-based polymer and the propylene-based polymer of greater than 40 megaPascals (MPa) at 110&#xb0; C., and greater than 18 MPa at 120&#xb0; C.
