  • Publication number: 20230158725
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a multilayer, coextruded polyester film that includes at least one outer layer (A) and a base layer (B), in which the at least one outer layer (A) includes to an extent of at least 60 wt % of a copolyester that includes units derived from dicarboxylic acids and diols, in which the units derived from dicarboxylic acids include at least 65 mol % of units derived from terephthalic acid and at least 5 mol % of units derived from 5-sulfo-isophthalic acid and the units derived from diols include at least 90 mol % of units derived from ethylene glycol. The present invention further relates to a process for producing the film according to the invention, to the use thereof and to a process for recycling the polyester film according to the invention.

  • Publication number: 20230159697
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a multilayer, coextruded polyester film including at least one outer layer (A) and a base layer (B), in which the at least one outer layer (A) includes, to an extent of at least 60 wt %, a polyester or a copolyester formed from units derived from aliphatic dicarboxylic acids and diols, wherein the units derived from dicarboxylic acids are selected from one or more dicarboxylic acids from the group of succinic acid, adipic acid, suberic acid, azelaic acid and sebacic acid, and the units derived from diols are selected from one or more diols from the group of ethylene glycol, 1,3-propanediol, 1,4-butanediol and neopentyl glycol. The present invention further relates to a process for producing the film according to the invention, to the use thereof and to a process for recycling the polyester film according to the invention.

  • Publication number: 20220119604
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a single-layer or multilayer coated polyester film having a transparency of at least 92%, with the polyester film having a first surface and a second surface, in which a permanent anti-fog coating has been applied to at least one of the surfaces of the polyester film and the anti-fog coating includes at least one water-soluble polymer, an inorganic, hydrophilic material and a crosslinker. The water-soluble polymer is a polyvinyl alcohol or a hydrophilic polyvinyl alcohol copolymer. Furthermore, the present invention relates to production processes for the coated polyester film and to energy saving mats in greenhouses produced therefrom.

  • Patent number: 11208528
    Abstract: The invention relates to a multilayer biaxially oriented polyester film comprising a base layer B, an amorphous outer layer A and a further outer layer C, where this polyester film is suitable for lamination with metal sheets. The invention in particular relates to a polyester film which comprises (based on the mass of polyester) from 2 to 15% by weight of isophthalate-derived units in the base layer and which comprises more than 19% by weight of isophthalate-derived units in the amorphous layer A, and which has a silane-based coating on the outer layer A. The invention further relates to a process for the production of these films.

  • Publication number: 20200231772
    Abstract: A single-layer or multi-layer, biaxially oriented polyester film is provided bearing on at least one film surface a coating for transparency increase. The film has a particle fraction of not more than 0.5% and the coating is a dried water-based or solvent-based solution and/or dispersion having a dry coat thickness of 60-130 nm. The coating includes at least one acrylic acid-based and/or methacrylic acid-based polymer and at least one alkylphosphonate and/or oligo-alkylphosphonate. The coating has a refractive index n<1.64 and a phosphorus fraction of between 2 and 18%. The inventive film is suitable for producing greenhouse energy-saving sheets, particularly for the growing of plants with exacting light demands such as tomatoes. The film has specific transparency properties, high UV stability and good fire properties. The invention further relates to methods for polyester film production and also to the use thereof in greenhouses.
