  • Patent number: 6106938
    Abstract: A polypropylene composition for a laminated and oriented film comprising (A) 73 to 97% by weight of a crystalline propylene random copolymer having a propylene content of 60 to 97% by weight, an ethylene content of 0 to 6% by weight and an .alpha.-olefin content of 3 to 40% by weight, (B) 2.5 to 17% by weight of a propylene- .alpha.-olefin random copolymer having a propylene content of 35 to 75% by weight and an .alpha.-olefin content of 25 to 65% by weight, and (c) 0.5 to 10% by weight of a crystalline propylene polymer. A polypropylene composition for a laminated and oriented film being film-formed for a long time without hurting a transparency and a low temperature heat-sealing property and having an excellent solvent resistance and an excellent hot-tack property, and a laminated and oriented film having this composition on a surface layer are provided.

  • Patent number: 5780168
    Abstract: A propylene-.alpha.-olefin random copolymer composition for use in a laminated and oriented film. The composition includes:(A) from 75 to 95% by weight of a crystalline propylene random copolymer obtained by gas-phase polymerization of propylene and an .alpha.-olefin wherein the amount of components of the copolymer which are soluble in xylene at 20.degree. C. is less than 15% by weight, the propylene content is from 73 to 97% by weight, the .alpha.-olefin content is from 3 to 27% by weight, and(B) from 5 to 25% by weight of a propylene random copolymer of propylene and .alpha.-olefin, wherein the propylene content is from 50 to 60% by weight, and the .alpha.-olefin content is from 35 to 65 % by weight,wherein the amounts of components in the propylene-.alpha.-olefin random copolymer composition which are soluble in xylene at 20.degree. C. is less than 30% by weight.

  • Patent number: 5521251
    Abstract: A propylene random copolymer composition which contains a mixture of 0.05-2.7% by weight of a crystalline propylene homopolymer (A) and 97.3-99.95% by weight of a random copolymer (B) of propylene and at least one .alpha.-olefin other than propylene which copolymer has a bound propylene content of 40-85% by weight and a Mw/Mn of not more than 5.5 meets both of the two mutually conflicting requirements of further improving the transparency inherent to polypropylene sheet and film, and attaining excellent solvent resistance.
