Abstract: Barrier films are prepared from a blend of two high density polyethylene blend components and a high performance organic nucleating agent. The two high density polyethylene blend components have substantially different melt indices. Large reductions in the moisture vapor transmission rate of the film are observed in the presence of the nucleating agent when the melt indices of the two blend components have a ratio of greater than 10/1. The resulting barrier films are suitable for the preparation of packaging for dry foods such as crackers and breakfast cereals.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to manufactured articles containing ethylene interpolymers. Specifically, films, containers and lids comprising at least one layer of an ethylene interpolymer product, or a blend containing an ethylene interpolymer product, where the ethylene interpolymer product has: a Dilution Index (Yd) greater than 0; total catalytic metal ?3.0 ppm; ?0.03 terminal vinyl unsaturations per 100 carbon atoms, and; optionally a Dimensionless Modulus (Xd) greater than 0. The ethylene interpolymer products have a melt index from about 0.4 to about 100 dg/minute, a density from about 0.950 to about 0.970 g/cm3, a polydispersity (Mw/Mn) from about 2 to about 25 and a CDBI50 from about 55% to about 97%. Further, the ethylene interpolymer products are a blend of at least two ethylene interpolymers; where one ethylene interpolymer is produced with a single-site catalyst formulation and at least one ethylene interpolymer is produced with a heterogeneous catalyst formulation.

Abstract: The invention concerns processes and solutions for the treatment of copper alloy surfaces, which are subsequently to be firmly bonded to polymeric material. The solution is used, in particular for firmly bonding lead frames to encapsulating molding compounds (polymeric material). The solution contains an oxidant, at least one acid, at least one adhesion-enhancing compound characterized in that the solution additionally contains fluoride ions in an amount of at least 100 mg per litre and chloride ions in an amount of 5 to 40 mg per litre. The solution is particularly useful for treatment of copper alloy surfaces, containing alloying elements selected from the group consisting of Si, Ni, Fe, Zr, P, Sn and Zn.
