Abstract: A polyolefin-based laminating adhesive composition for use in producing a mechanical recyclable material, the adhesive composition including a mixture of: (a) at least one saturated polyolefin polyol; and (b) at least one aliphatic multi-functional isocyanate compound; a process for producing the above adhesive composition; a mechanically recyclable multi-layer laminate including: (A) at least one first film substrate layer; (B) at least one second film substrate layer; and (C) at least one layer of the above polyolefin-based laminating adhesive composition; wherein the at least one first film substrate layer is bonded to the at least one second film substrate layer via the adhesive composition layer; a process for producing the above mechanically recyclable multi-layer laminate; and a packaging article made from the above mechanically recyclable multi-layer laminate.

Abstract: A solvent-based polyurethane retort adhesive system for producing laminates including: (A) at least one isocyanate compound, Component A, comprising: a blend of: (i) at least one aliphatic-based isocyanate and (ii) at least one aromatic-based isocyanate; and (B) at least one isocyanate-reactive component, Component B, comprising: (i) at least one phosphate ester compound and (ii) at least one polyether polyol having an average molecular weight of less than 1,500 g/mol; a process for producing the above adhesive; a multi-layer laminate product including the above adhesive; and a process for producing a laminate product using the above adhesive.

Abstract: Preparation and use of organopolysiloxanes having carbinol groups that are bonded to the silicon atom through carbamate-containing groups. These hydrophilic polysiloxanes can be made to completely dissolve in water or behave as amphoteric surfactants by controlling the concentration of the carbinol radicals and the molecular weight of the polysiloxane.

Abstract: A composition of matter comprising an interpenetrating polymer network of a combination of a silanol-containing polysiloxane phase and a silylated triglyceride oil phase. The two phases are mixed and covalently bound to each other via siloxane crosslinks. A method for producing interpenetrating polymer networks. The method comprises providing triglycerides from oils or fats and reacting the triglycerides with a reactive silane to form a silylated triglyceride oil. The silylated triglyceride oil and a silanol terminated polysiloxane are emulsified with water in a predetermined ratio. Thereafter, crosslinking agents are added and the water is removed from the emulsions providing siloxane crosslinks between the two intimately mixed immiscible phases.
