  • Patent number: 4384032
    Abstract: A fluid transmitting polyolefin foam having a special open-cell cellular structure as compared with the conventional polyolefin foams having all cells closed is disclosed. Such a novel fluid transmitting polyolefin foam is produced by mixing a polyolefin with a polymer other than a polyolefin, said polyolefin and/or said polymer other than a polyolefin having a blowing agent incorporated therein and/or adhered thereto and subjecting the resulting mixture to extrusion moulding. The present fluid transmitting polyolefin foam has a wide variety of uses, for example, as a synthetic leather, synthetic filter cloth, separator of storage battery, synthetic paper, package, etc.

  • Patent number: 4379888
    Abstract: A composition for shrinkable film which excels in heat-sealability, transparency, strength, and particularly low-temperature quick shrinking property and, therefore, suits production chiefly of packaging materials, a film made of the composition and a process for the manufacture of the film are disclosed. Specifically, the composition comprises one of the specific combinations of components (A), (B) and (C), i.e. the combinations of (A)+(B), (B)+(C) and (A)+(B)+(C), wherein (A) is non-rigid polyolefine resins such as ethylene vinyl acetate, (B) is an elastomer comprising a specific ethylene-.alpha.-olefin copolymer, and (C) is rigid polyolefin resins such as polypropylene.

  • Patent number: 3939237
    Abstract: A novel tube or sheet-shaped fluid transmitting porous material containing as a substrate, a polyolefin. Such porous material can be readily produced by subjecting a mixture of a polyolefin, a specific secondary polymer and a decomposition type blowing agent to extrusion moulding. The present porous material has certain unique features in its structure characterized in that there are recurring communications between cell wall openings forming a passage through which a fluid can pass. This porous material has excellent gas and liquid transmitting properties as well as an excellent filtering property and, in addition, is superior in resistance to chemicals and also has mechanical strength. Therefore, the porous material according to this invention is widely applicable in agriculture and industry as well as in the fields of synthetic leather etc.
