Abstract: Recyclable films having a first layer containing a polyethylene, a second layer containing a high-density polyethylene and a hydrocarbon resin, and a third layer containing a polyethylene may be used for thermoforming packaging components. Both the first and third layers have an overall density between about 0.92 g/cm3 and 0.97 g/cm3. The film structure is advantageous as it can be more easily thermoformed than traditional high-density polyethylene films and can maintain the shape taken during thermoforming, exhibiting minimal warping or shrinking.

Abstract: The film structure has a first exterior layer having a high-density polyethylene and an inorganic particle, a second exterior layer having a polyethylene-based material for sealing, and an interior layer having a high-density polyethylene, a nucleating agent and a hydrocarbon resin. The film may be use as a heat-sealable lid component for packaging and offers high moisture barrier, good heat resistance, and push-through and/or child-resistance performance while maintaining an overall composition acceptable for recycling.

Abstract: Recyclable films having at least a first layer containing a high-density polyethylene, a second layer containing a high-density polyethlene and a hydrocarbon resin, and a third layer containing a high-density polyethylene may be used for thermoforming packaging components. The film structure is advantageous as it can be more easily thermoformed than traditional high-density poly-ethylene films and can maintain the shape taken during thermoforming, exhibiting minimal warping or shrinking.

Abstract: An adhesive-free laminate and a process for producing such a laminate are described herein. The process includes printing an ink on the surface of a first film, exposure of the printed film to UV radiation such that the ink is at least partially cured, attaching the first film to a second film such that the ink is between the first and second film, and exposing the combination of the first film, the ink and the second film to a second UV radiation. It has been found that this process can produce a unique laminate, without the presence of an adhesive.
