Abstract: The present invention relates to polyurethane foams having a polymeric foam structure including a plurality of closed cells therein; and an HFO or HCFO blowing agent, including HCFO-1233zd or HFO-1234ze. In certain aspects, the present invention relates to foam premixes, and the resulting foam structures, that include HCFO-1233zd as blowing agent used alone, or in certain aspects, in a blend with a co-blowing agent such as methyl formate.

Abstract: The present invention relates to polymeric materials and liners for a container adapted to hold a food and/or beverage container in a cooled condition. In certain aspects, it includes (a) at least one co-polymeric chain which imparts plastic characteristics to said liner material; and (b) one or more rubber moieties grafted to and/or dispersed in said at least one first co-polymeric chain, wherein said one or more rubber moieties comprises at least about 30% by weight of said liner. In other aspects, it includes (a) at least one co-polymeric chain which imparts plastic characteristics to said liner material; and (b) one or more rubber moieties grafted to and/or dispersed in said at least one co-polymeric chain, wherein said one or more rubber moieties are present in the liner in an amount effective to ensure that said liner exhibits no stress cracking after one thermal test cycle.
