Publication number: 20190247883Abstract: The present disclosure relates to polymer coating compositions that comprise at least one thermoplastic resin, at least one opacity modifier, at least one gloss modifier, and at least one impact modifier, articles at least partially coated with the polymer coating composition, paintable polymer coated articles and method for making the polymer coated and painted polymer coated articles. These compositions exhibit enhanced paintability (including paintability with water-based paints) and mechanical properties for fabrication (cutting, nailing, routing, etc.), while maintaining acceptable visual appearance, such as, for example, opacity, gloss, surface appearance, and surface roughness.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 25, 2019Publication date: August 15, 2019Applicant: Eastman Chemical CompanyInventors: Jeremy Richard Lizotte, Caroline Joan Wilson, Emerson Eston Sharpe, JR., Tony Wayne Helton, Subramanian Eawaran Iyer, James Wilson Mercer, JR., David Gayle Salyer

Patent number: 10065404Abstract: A process for in-line laminating a heavy-gauge transparent polymer sheet with a pre-pre-formed polymer film to produce a laminated polymer sheet. The pre-formed polymer film can impart one or more aesthetic or functional elements to the heavy-gauge polymer sheet. The resulting laminate can have equivalent, or enhanced, properties as compared to conventionally-prepared laminates and can be formed into a variety of articles with multiple end uses.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2011Date of Patent: September 4, 2018Assignee: Eastman Chemical CompanyInventors: Ryan Thomas Neill, Patsy Jeanine Barton, Jill Ellen Cline, James Hubert David, David Gayle Salyer

Patent number: 8071695Abstract: Disclosed are polyester blends that provide improved stress whitening behavior. The blends may be prepared from a polyester having crystallization half-time of at least 5 minutes and a polyester elastomer. The polyesters blends may be extruded or, in the presence of a release additive, calendered to produce film or sheet. Also disclosed are processes for making a film or sheet by extrusion or calendering the above blends and the film or sheet produced therefrom. The polyester blend and the film or sheet produced therefrom also may include plasticizers and/or flame retardants to increase their flexibility and enable their use in commercial applications requiring flame resistance. The film and sheet have excellent appearance and can be used in a wide range of decorative and packaging applications.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2005Date of Patent: December 6, 2011Assignee: Eastman Chemical CompanyInventors: Marc Alan Strand, Rodney Layne Piner, David Gayle Salyer
