  • Publication number: 20210237949
    Abstract: The present teaching relates to a recyclable, easily tearable packaging laminate having a good barrier effect, including a first laminate layer and a second laminate layer. The first laminate layer is a co-extruded and bidirectionally stretched composite consisting of a substrate layer having an HDPE content of at least 60 vol. %, a connecting layer and a barrier layer consisting of a barrier polymer, preferably polyamide or ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer, having a thickness of maximum 20% of the total thickness of the first laminate layer. The connecting layer is arranged between the substrate layer and the barrier layer, and the first laminate layer is connected, at its barrier layer, to the second laminate layer.

  • Patent number: 10954401
    Abstract: Sealing lacquer for application in a printing process, in particular for sealing packaging parts which can be peeled off from one another. The sealing lacquer has in particular a) 40 to 65 wt % solvent, b) 0 to 10 wt % styrene butadiene block copolymer, c) 8 to 12 wt % styrene alpha methylstyrene, d) 6 to 12 wt % linear and/or radial Tri-block (SBS) block, e) 0 to 10 wt % linear Di-Block (SB) block, f) 15 to 30 wt % polyester, and g) up to 3 wt % antioxidant. The sealing lacquer provides a seal that, whether the seal is opened by peeling, or the packaging is push-through packaging, provides a holding force exhibiting a strength until cohesion failure that is determined by the pressures and temperatures used during sealing.

  • Patent number: 9321248
    Abstract: The packaging composite film has an outside and an inside. It also includes a cover layer facing the outside, an inner layer, which faces the inside and has a lower puncture and tear resistance than the cover layer, and a liquid-soluble intermediate layer arranged between the cover layer and the inner layer. To transport liquid from the outside to the liquid-soluble intermediate layer, liquid-transporting openings are provided, which completely penetrate the cover layer and extend in the direction of the inside at least to the intermediate layer, without including the inner layer. A childproof packaging, which is nevertheless easy to open and therefore senior-friendly, can be realized by means of the packaging composite film.
