  • Patent number: 12779831
    Abstract: A polyester film includes a laminate including a plurality of first layers and a plurality of second layers alternately stacked on the plurality of first layers. Each of the first layers includes lactic acid residues, and each of the second layers includes terephthalate residues and adipic acid residues. The polyester film has an average equivalent noise level of 78 dB or less from a noise level test for film spinning the polyester film 180 degrees at 800 rpm for 30 seconds or more, and has Young's modulus of 280 kgf/mm2 or less.

  • Publication number: 20260233498
    Abstract: A multilayer film according to the embodiments comprises a laminate including a first layer and a second layer disposed on the first layer; the first layer comprises a polyester resin including diol residues and dicarboxylic acid residues; the second layer comprises a butenediol vinyl alcohol copolymer; and the laminate has an oxygen permeability of 0.1 cc/m2·day·atm or less. The multilayer film provides low oxygen permeability, an interface that is not easily delaminated, and improved processability, and a display device and a packaging material comprising the multilayer film are provided. Accordingly, oxygen ingress from outside into elements of a display device or packaged foods can be effectively blocked. In addition, the multilayer film exhibits excellent processability due to a non-delaminating interface and a small maximum thickness deviation. Furthermore, resins applied to the multilayer film have controlled melting and decomposition temperatures, enabling easy co-extrusion.

  • Patent number: 12583982
    Abstract: The polyester film according to the embodiment prepared while the crystallinity of a copolymerized polyester film is controlled can be improved in thermal properties and chemical properties. Specifically, the polyester film has not only an excellent shrinkage rate with respect to temperature, but also excellent adhesive strength by a solvent even when applied to gravure printing, UV curing printing, and VSOP printing, making it suitable for a heat shrinkage process and a seaming process. In addition, the polyester film can be applied to a recycling process since it has an appropriate change in crystals during washing with an aqueous solution of NaOH, and the generation of fusion is suppressed even upon prolonged high-temperature drying.
