Abstract: The present invention relates to a laminate article formed of multiple incompatible polymer plies. The laminate article has a flange construction which limits delamination in areas of the article heretofore prone to delaminate and thus provides improved structural integrity, longevity and appearance and a longer useful life in a range of applications.

Abstract: This invention relates to a panel of material comprising a film comprising a layer of a solid polyolefin and a layer of copolyester wherein said copolyester comprises:(1) a dicarboxylic acid component comprising repeat units from at least 90 mole percent terephthalic acid; and(2) a diol component comprising repeat units from 20 to 40 mole percent diethylene glycol and 80 to 60 mole percent ethylene glycol, based on 100 mole percent dicarboxylic acid and 100 mole percent diol,said layer of a copolyester being intimately bonded to a wooden substrate and said polyolefin layer being exposed on the outer surface of said film.
