  • System and method for creating high gloss plastic items via the use of styrenic copolymers as a coextruded layer
    Patent number: 9289955
    Abstract: The present techniques provide multi-layer plastic structures and methods for making such. The multi-layer plastic structures include an inner surface made from a polyolefin resin, and resistant to environmental stress cracking, and an outer surface that includes a styrenic copolymer. The outer surface has a kinetic coefficient of friction with itself of 0.42 and a static coefficient of friction with itself of 0.44.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 23, 2012
    Date of Patent: March 22, 2016
    Assignees: Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LP, Silgan Holdings, Inc.
