Abstract: Methods and apparatus for producing composite-coated rigid flat-rolled sheet metal substrate in which thermoplastic polymeric materials are selected and combined for dual-layer molten-film extrusion presenting a first-contacting tie-layer and an externally-located finish-layer which are simultaneously extruded for a single substrate surface at-a-time; in which tie-layer selection includes an ethylene-glycol modified PET, requiring a substrate-surface temperature between 230° F. and 300° F.

Abstract: A sampler package for fluid cosmetics, creams, gels, and the like having a liquid solvent base includes a transparent composite laminate sealed with a composite laminate having a foil barrier layer. The sealed composite laminates form a pouch in which the cosmetic sample is contained. The transparent composite laminate is preferably adhesively laminated with either a biaxially oriented PVDC film or a polychlorotrifluoroethylene film as the moisture vapor barrier layer. The moisture permeability rate of the barrier film is at most 0.065 g/100 in2/24 hrs @100° F.,90% RH. Use of such transparent films as the barrier laminate permits the sampler package to be formed with a transparent window through which the color, texture, etc. of the sampler product may be viewed.
