Abstract
Abstract A laminate consists of a layer A of a polyolefin, reinforced with from 10 to 50% of glass fiber mats, and a metal layer D, which are bonded to one another by means of a mechanically adhesion-promoting layer B and an adhesive layer C. The adhesive is a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer, preferably having a melting range of from 110° to 250° C. The laminates are used as automobile components, and as housings and containers.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
72 words
A laminate comprising a layer A of a polyolefin, reinforced with from 10 to 50% by weight of glass fiber mats, and a layer D of a metal, which are bonded to one another by means of a mechanically adhesion-promoting layer B and an adhesive layer C, wherein the adhesive is a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer, wherein the adhesion promoting layer B is a non-woven fabric which is anchored in the polyolefin layer.
