Barrier coatings

The invention is a composition made by mixing a multifunctional acrylate with an aminofunctional silane and an ethylenically unsaturated acid to form a reaction product, optionally dissolved in a solvent, characterized in that the multifunctional acrylate has a molecular weight of from about 100 to about 3000. The composition can be coated on a substrate, then optionally exposed to moisture and treated to initiate a free radical reaction. The invention can be applied to a variety of substrates used in packaging applications. The reaction mixture can further be cured by heating in the presence of moisture. The free radical reaction can be initiated by electron beam irradiation, ultraviolet radiation, gamma radiation, and/or heat and chemical free radical initiators.

Silicone/multifunctional acrylate barrier coatings

The invention is a laminate structure made by coating at least one side of a substrate with a laminating adhesive, bringing a coated side of said substrate into contact with a second substrate to form a multi-layer film, and treating said multi-layer film with a free radical initiator, wherein said laminating adhesive is the reaction product of a multifunctional acrylate, an aminofunctional silane, and an ethylenically unsaturated acid, optionally dissolved in a solvent, wherein the multifunctional acrylate has a molecular weight of from 100 to 3000.

Silicone containing laminate adhesive

The invention relates to a method of laminating two substrates by coating at least one side of a substrate with a laminating adhesive, bringing a coated side of said substrate into contact with a second substrate to form a three layer film, and treating said three layer film with a free radical initiator, wherein said laminating adhesive is formed by mixing an ethylenically unsaturated acid and a polyamine.
