Abstract: Embodiments of a polyethylene composition are provided, which may include a first polyethylene fraction comprising at least one peak in a temperature range of from 35° C. to 70° C. in an elution profile via improved comonomer composition distribution (iCCD) analysis method, where a first polyethylene area fraction is an area in the elution profile from 35° C. to 70° C., and where the first polyethylene fraction area comprises from 25% to 65% of the total area of the elution profile; and a second polyethylene fraction comprising at least one peak in a temperature range of from 85° C. to 120° C. in the elution profile, where a second polyethylene area fraction is an area in the elution profile from 85° C. to 120° C., and where the second polyethylene fraction area comprises at least 20% of the total area of the elution profile.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to reclosable packages comprising a front wall, a rear wall, and a closure region proximate to an outer edge of the container opposite a bottom of the container. The closure region includes a plurality of seal regions forming a continuous seal between the front wall and the rear wall across a width of the package and at least one of the seal regions is nonlinear. The closure region further includes at least one unsealed region defined between the seal regions. In some reclosable packages, the application of an opening force proximate to the closure region is operable to break the continuous seal between the front wall and the rear wall across a width of the package. The seal geometry may be tuned to adjust the magnitude of opening force required.

Abstract: A reclosable package (600) includes a container (602) having an elongate closure region (610) proximate to one edge (608) of the container and bounded on both ends by edge seal regions (620). The closure region includes a reclosable film (630) that seals the container proximate to the edge of the container and has an initial opening strength less than a seal strength of the edge seal regions. Application of an opening force to the reclosable film that is greater than the initial opening strength of the reclosable film may be operable to separate the reclosable film and expose a first reclose surface and a second reclose surface. Contact of the first reclose surface with the second reclose surface and application of a pressure to the reclosable film may be operable to re-adhere the first reclose surface and second reclose surface at a reclose strength.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a reclosable package comprises a front wall, a rear wall, and an upper closure. At the upper closure, at least a portion of a surface of the rear wall is sealed to an exterior surface of the front wall at a first adhesion strength. According to embodiments, the application of a force greater than the first adhesion strength to the rear wall in a direction away from the front wall is operable to separate the portion of a surface of the rear wall from the exterior surface of the front wall. After, the return of the portion of the surface of the rear wall and an application of a force on the rear wall in the direction of the front wall is operable to reseal the portion of the interior surface of the rear wall to the exterior surface of the front wall.
