Abstract
Abstract A laminate comprising a layer of a modified resin selected from the group consisting of (a) a resinous modified ethylene or vinyl acetate polymer or a polymer composition thereof containing a specific proportion of the vinyl acetate and (b) a resinous modified ethylene or alkyl acrylate polymer or a polymer composition thereof containing a specific proportion of the alkyl acrylate, and a layer of a thermoplastic fluorine-containing resin is disclosed. The laminate exhibits a high interfacial adhesion strength, while maintaining the advantages of the fluorine-containing resin.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
173 words
A laminate comprising a layer of the following modified resin(a) or (b) and a layer of a thermoplastic fluorine-containing resin, wherein: (a) is a resinous modified copolymer comprising an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer having vinyl acetate graft-copolymerized onto at least a part of the copolymer in an amount of at least 5 percent by weight based on the modified copolymer, wherein the total vinyl acetate content is 20 to 80 percent by weight based on the weight of the modified copolymer; (b) is a resinous modified copolymer comprising a copolymer selected from the group consisting of ethylene-lower alkyl acrylate copolymer, ethylene-lower alkyl methacrylate copolymer and the combination thereof, said copolymer having lower alkyl acrylate, lower alkyl methacrylate or a combination thereof graft-copolymerized onto at least a part of said copolymer in an amount of at least 5 percent by weight based on the weight of the modified copolymer, wherein the total lower alkyl acrylate and lower alkyl methacrylate content is 20 to 80 percent by weight based on the weight of the modified copolymer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
173 words
A laminate comprising a layer of the following modified resin(a) or (b) and a layer of a thermoplastic fluorine-containing resin, wherein: (a) is a resinous modified copolymer comprising an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer having vinyl acetate graft-copolymerized onto at least a part of the copolymer in an amount of at least 5 percent by weight based on the modified copolymer, wherein the total vinyl acetate content is 20 to 80 percent by weight based on the weight of the modified copolymer; (b) is a resinous modified copolymer comprising a copolymer selected from the group consisting of ethylene-lower alkyl acrylate copolymer, ethylene-lower alkyl methacrylate copolymer and the combination thereof, said copolymer having lower alkyl acrylate, lower alkyl methacrylate or a combination thereof graft-copolymerized onto at least a part of said copolymer in an amount of at least 5 percent by weight based on the weight of the modified copolymer, wherein the total lower alkyl acrylate and lower alkyl methacrylate content is 20 to 80 percent by weight based on the weight of the modified copolymer.
