Abstract: Disclosed herein are, for instance, coated substrates comprising cellulose-based substrates with surface-treated aqueous-based polymer coatings. In some embodiments, the aqueous-based polymer coatings are surface-treated using corona treatment. Methods of making and using the same are also disclosed.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a paper cup comprising a first coating comprising a polyethylene copolymer on a first surface of the paper cup and optionally a second aqueous-based coating on a second surface of the paper cup. In some embodiments, the first coating is on an inside surface of a bottom portion of the paper cup, and the second aqueous-based coating is on an inside of a side portion of the paper cup. The present disclosure also relates to methods of making the paper cups disclosed herein.

Abstract: The invention relates to a twist-wrap film (1, 2, 3) which is produced by coextrusion of a plurality of plastic layers. The inventive film is characterized in that at least a) one or more plastic layer(s) (4, 4?) consist of one or more semicrystalline polyolefin(s) having a uniform structure and b) at least one additional layer from an amorphous cycloolefin copolymer (5) having a uniform structure, the layers a) and b) being in direct contact. The selection of an amorphous cycloolefin copolymer having a uniform structure in at least one layer of the inventive twist-wrap film combined with a semicrystalline polyolefin having a uniform structure allows to provide a twist-wrap film that can be easily produced and that has the rigidity required for twist-wrap packagings and a satisfactory deadfold behavior, i.e., recovery behavior.

Abstract: Control of high density polyethylene resin melt strength and melt viscosity is useful for producing foamed articles. The foamed articles are produced by compounding high density polyethylene with a peroxide and/or electron beam exposure.
