  • Shrink films, and method of making thereof
    Patent number: 10513095
    Abstract: A shrink film comprising a polyethylene-based film having a top surface, a bottom surface, and comprising one or more layers, wherein at least one layer of the polyethylene-based film comprises a low density polyethylene having a density of from 0.917 g/cc to 0.935 g/cc and melt index, I2, of from 0.1 g/10 min to 5 g/10 min, a linear low density polyethylene having a density of from 0.900 g/cc to 0.965 g/cc and melt index, I2, of from 0.05 g/10 min to 15 g/10 min, or combinations thereof, and optionally, a medium density polyethylene, a high density polyethylene, or combinations thereof, and a coating layer disposed on the top surface of the polyethylene-based film, wherein the coating layer comprises an adhesive and a near-infrared absorbent material.
