High gas barrier, delamination-resistant polyamide compositions suitable for extended shelf-life packaging applications are provided. Also provided are polyamide compositions exhibiting high oxygen scavenging capability. The polyamide compositions comprise mXDA-IPA containing copolymers which provide excellent properties to the complete polyamide compositions. Also provided are direct blends of the polyamide compositions with other polymers. The polyamide products are particularly suited for producing barrier packaging articles such as monolayer or multi-layer films, sheets, thermoformed containers and molded bottles. Such articles are useful in a variety of oxygen-sensitive food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and health care product packaging applications.

Polyamide blend composition having excellent gas barrier performance

Multilayer sheets and films are provided that include a layer of a fluoropolymer material and a layer of a thermoplastic polymer material. More particularly, an adhesive material and multilayered structures formed therewith are provided in which a layer of a fluoropolymer material is attached to a layer of another thermoplastic polymer. The adhesive material is useful to adhere layers of dissimilar polymeric materials that are otherwise incompatible, and achieves a significantly improved interlayer bond strength between fluoropolymer and thermoplastic polymer layers as compared to the art.
