The present invention generally pertains to multilayer film including four or more discrete layers. The films contain two external layers, an internal stiffening layer and an internal shrink layer. The external layers include linear low density polyethylene resin, the stiffening layer includes polypropylene or a high density polyethylene and the shrink layer includes low density polyethylene. The multilayer films of the present invention have a gloss of at least 62% at 45 degrees, together with a 2% secant tensile modulus greater than 400 MPa.

Ultra-stiff coextruded shrink films

A method of forming an article that includes applying an aqueous dispersion to a porous substrate, wherein the aqueous dispersion includes a thermoplastic polymer, a dispersing agent, and water. The method includes removing at least a portion of the water, to result in an article formed that is breathable.
