Abstract

Abstract Slip properties of multilayer films of thermoplastic organic polymers are improved by incorporating small amounts of a conventional slip additive, e.g., oleamide, into one or more of the inner layers of said films. Said films exhibit slip characteristics which are retained for relatively long periods of time.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 14 words
The method according to claim 1 wherein the slip additive is a non-ionic surfactant.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 24 words
The method improvement according to claim 1 wherein the slip additive is an amide of a carboxylic acid having at least five carbon atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method improvement according to claim 3 wherein the amide is oleamide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method according to claim 3 wherein the amide is erucylamide.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
The method according to claim 1 wherein the slip additive is a carboxylic acid having at least four carbon atoms.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 13 words
The method according to claim 6 wherein the carboxylic acid is 12-hydroxystearic acid.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 48 words
The method according to claim 1 wherein the inner layer has incorporated therein from about 2,000 to about 4,000 p.p.m. of the slip additive and the exterior layer contains from about 500 to about 4,000 p.p.m. of the slip additive based on the weight of the exterior layer.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 54 words
The method according to claim 1 wherein the multilayer film comprises (1) a center barrier layer of a vinylidene chloride copolymer, (2) an adhesive layer of an ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer laminated to each side of the barrier layer and (3) an exterior layer of an olefin polymer laminated to each of the adhesive layers.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 80 words
The method according to claim 9 wherein each of the two adhesive layers has dispersed therein from about 500 to about 7, 000 p.p.m. based on the weight of the adhesive layers of an amide of a carboxylic acid having at least five carbon atoms and each of the exterior layers contains from about 500 to about 4,000 p.p.m. based on the weight of the exterior layer of an amide of a carboxylic acid having at least five carbon atoms.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 37 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein steps (3) and (4) are carried out by feeding said first and second polymers separately into a coextrusion means and coextruding said polymers in the form of said multilayer film.
