  • Patent number: 5616420
    Abstract: Disclosed are a laminate film having at least three layers, the three layers being (A) an intermediate layer and (B) two outer layers, the intermediate layer (A) being composed of a resin composition comprising 20 to 100% by weight of an amorphous polyolefin containing at least 50% by weight of a propylene and/or butene-1 and 80 to 0% by weight of a crystalline polypropylene, and the two outer layers (B) being composed of a resin composition comprising a polyolefin and a thermoplastic styrene elastomer, and a laminate film having at least three layers, the three layers being (A) an intermediate layer and (B) two outer layers, the intermediate layer (A) being composed of a resin composition comprising 20 to 100% by weight of an amorphous polyolefin containing at least 50% by weight of a propylene and/or butene-1 and 80 to 0% by weight of a crystalline polypropylene, and the two outer layers (B) being composed of a resin composition comprising a propylene resin and a thermoplastic styrene elastomer.

  • Patent number: 5472792
    Abstract: A laminated film has layer(s) A and layer(s) B.sub.1, obtained by laminating at least one layer A and at least one layer B.sub.1. The layer A comprises a resin composition comprising (a) 20-100% by weight of an amorphous polyolefin containing at least one component, in an amount of at least 50% by weight in said amorphous polyolefin, selected from the group consisting of propylene and butene-1 and (b) 80-0% by weight of a crystalline polypropylene, (B) the layer B.sub.1 comprises a crystalline polypropylene. At least one of the two outermost layer is the layer B.sub.1. The laminated films can be used in various applications by themselves, but may be laminated with a polyester film, a nylon film, a stretched polypropylene film or the like to improve the mechanical strengths, gas-barrier property, printability, etc.

  • Patent number: 5468807
    Abstract: The present invention provides a resin composition including (a) 20-80% by weight of an amorphous polyolefin having a propylene and/or butene-1 component content of 50% by weight or more, and (b) 80-20% by weight of a crystalline polypropylene. This resin composition is well balanced in mechanical strength and flexibility and gives rise to no environmental pollution.

  • Patent number: 4369356
    Abstract: A heat-shrinkable cover sheet used for covering and protecting the peripheral surface of a joint of, for example, a steel pipe or cable is provided. The heat-shrinkable cover sheet has two branched tongue-like portions on each of both the ends in the direction of thermal shrinkage. A heating element formed of a heating electric conductor wire is included and built in the body portion of the cover sheet, the front tongue-like portion on one end of the cover sheet and the back tongue-like portion on the other end of the cover sheet, in a manner such that thermal shrinkage of the entire sheet is not prevented.
