  • Publication number: 20230279224
    Abstract: A single-layer tubular structure intended to convey fluids for a motor vehicle, formed by a layer formed by a composition predominantly including at least one catalyzed semi-crystalline aliphatic polyamide, the composition being formed by at least 30% by weight, in particular at least 50% by weight, of recycled material originating from at least one single-layer and/or multi-layer tube that was intended to convey fluids for a motor vehicle, the at least one single-layer and/or multi-layer tube being formed by a composition that predominantly includes at least one catalyzed or non-catalyzed polyamide, said at least one single-layer and/or multi-layer tube having been crushed, then at least recompounding with or without the addition of at least one catalyst to be able to be recycled, a simple one-off crushing being excluded.

  • Publication number: 20230191756
    Abstract: A multilayer tubular structure for transporting fluids for a motor vehicle, the structure including at least three layers: at least one layer having a composition predominantly including at least one semi-crystalline aliphatic polyamide, the composition having at least 50% of recycled material from a single-layer and/or multilayer tube that has been intended for transporting fluids for a motor vehicle, the tube having a composition which predominantly includes at least one polyamide, at least one layer having a composition predominantly including at least semi-crystalline aliphatic polyamide and optionally at least one impact modifier, and when the layer has a composition predominantly including at least one semi-crystalline aliphatic polyamide that is PA12 and/or PA612 and/or PA1010, then the composition includes the impact modifier, and at least one barrier layer, the layer and the barrier layer each having at least 90% of non-recycled material.

  • Patent number: 5616418
    Abstract: Polyblend compositions well adopted for the production of a wide variety of useful shaped articles having improved physical/chemical properties, e.g., fibers, films, sheets, composites, and the like, comprise (a) at least one polyamide thermoplastic elastomer, e.g., a polyetheresteramide, and (b) at least one modified polyolefin, e.g, an optionally maleized copolymerizate of ethylene and vinyl acetate, a copolymerizate of ethylene and (meth)acrylic acid, a copolymerizate of ethylene, vinyl acetate and (meth)acrylic acid and/or an alkyl (meth)acrylate, a copolymerizate of ethylene, an alkyl (meth)acrylate and, optionally, maleic anhydride, or maleized SBS, SIS or SEBS.

  • Patent number: 5506310
    Abstract: A thermoplastic film, adapted for adhesion, composed of a compound of polyamide-based thermoplastic elastomers and of copolymers of olefins, the latter preferably being constituted of at least two different monomers of olefins. The composition of the thermoplastic film is such that the thermoplastic elastomers represent at least 50% and preferably 60% of the total weight of the compound.

  • Patent number: 5348804
    Abstract: The invention relates to adhesion of various elements of a structure, such as a ski, consisting of an assembly of at least one first element and a second element by the action of an adhesive layer made of resin or foam, by interspersing at least one thermoplastic film, adapted for adhesion, and composed of a compound of polyamide-based thermoplastic elastomers and of copolymers of olefins, the latter preferably being constituted of at least two different monomers of olefins, between the adhesive layer and the junction surface of the first element. The composition of the thermoplastic film is such that the thermoplastic elastomers represent at least 50% and preferably 60% of the total weight of the compound.
