The surfaces of polymer articles are conditioned for metallizing by treatment with an etching solution composed of a mixture of sulfuric acid and a carboxylic acid, such as formic or acetic acid.

Chemical etching of polymers for metallizing

A process for producing a laminate by bonding together in a molten state (I) a first outer layer composed of a nitrile barrier resin, (II) a tie layer comprising a mixture of (1) a nitrile barrier resin, and (2) a halogenated polyolefin and (3) a thermoplastic resin other than (1) and (2) and (III) a second outer layer composed of a thermoplastic resin.

Tie layer for co-extruded acrylonitrile copolymers

Nitrile barrier resin latexes containing a coalescing agent which (1) is a solvent for the nitrile barrier resin, (2) has a boiling point between 100.degree. and 300.degree. C., and (3) does not azeotrope with water are excellent oxygen barriers and have good chemical resistance when coated on various substrates. Especially effective coalescing agents are selected from the group consisting of dimethyl formamide, dimethyl acetimide, methyl pyrrolidone, dimethyl sulfoxide, glycol carbonate and tetramethylene sulfone.

Coalescing aid for high nitrile copolymer latex coatings

A synthetic resin laminated structure is produced by bonding together in a molten state a layer of a (I) nitrile barrier resin, (II) a layer of a polymer mixture comprising a nitrile barrier resin and a halogenated polyolefin, and (III) a layer of a thermoplastic resin. The thermoplastic resins useful in this invention include polyolefins such as polyethylene and polypropylene, polyvinylchlorides, styrene containing polymers such as ABS, SAN and polystyrene, polycarbonates, polyurethanes, polysulfones, polyamides and nitrile barrier resins.

This invention relates to a blend of a vinyl aromatic-diene block copolymer rubber and a nitrile barrier resin, and to the use of this mixture as a tie-layer to adhere a nitrile barrier resin to a thermoplastic resin.

Tie-layer for coextruded acrylonitrile copolymers

Impact resistant polymeric compositions are composed of a blend of a high nitrile resin and a hydrophobic nylon. The high nitrile resins useful in this invention are those produced by polymerizing a major proportion of a monounsaturated nitrile, e.g. acrylonitrile, and a minor proportion of another monovinyl monomer component, e.g. methyl acrylate, copolymerizable therewith optionally in the presence of a preformed rubber. The hydrophobic nylons useful in this invention comprise nylon-11, nylon-12 anc cyclic nylons.

Blends of high nitrile resins and hydrophobic nylons

In the coating of the surface of metal substrates with an acrylonitrile copolymer from an aqueous latex of said copolymer, the adhesion of the copolymer to the metal surface is improved by the inclusion in the latex of a condensation product of certain metal hydroxides or borates with a certain type of phosphate emulsifier.

Adhesion promoter for acrylonitrile copolymer latex coatings

A blend of a styrene-butadiene block copolymer rubber, a nitrile barrier resin, and a high impact polystyrene is used as a tie layer to adhere together co-extruded nitrile barrier resin and high impact polystyrene.
