A molded article formed from a polymer composition, the polymer composition consisting essentially of: an ethylene homopolymer or ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer; greater than 20 ppm of a fluoropolymer; and optionally, up to 5 wt. % of one or more of processing aids, acid neutralizers, stabilizers, phosphites, antioxidants, metal de-activators, pigments or colorants, or fillers; wherein the molded article exhibits an oxygen transmission rate [OTR, (cc*mm)/(m*day*atm)]&#x2264;&#x2212;3181 (cc*mm)/g*m*day*atm)&#xd7;[Density, g/cc]+3077, (cc*mm)/(m*day*atm).

Molded articles and methods thereof

A shrink film comprising a polyethylene-based film having a top surface, a bottom surface, and comprising one or more layers, wherein at least one layer of the polyethylene-based film comprises a low density polyethylene having a density of from 0.917 g/cc to 0.935 g/cc and melt index, I2, of from 0.1 g/10 min to 5 g/10 min, a linear low density polyethylene having a density of from 0.900 g/cc to 0.965 g/cc and melt index, I2, of from 0.05 g/10 min to 15 g/10 min, or combinations thereof, and optionally, a medium density polyethylene, a high density polyethylene, or combinations thereof, and a coating layer disposed on the top surface of the polyethylene-based film, wherein the coating layer comprises an adhesive and a near-infrared absorbent material.
