20080254281Microlayer Structures and Methods - Improved microlayer structures and methods typically employing at least 4 stacked layers of polymers (e.g., including alternating layers of components A and B), such as that obtained by coextrusion. The layers each have a thickness of less than about 50 microns. One optional approach involves forming an intermediate form that includes at least one elongated member made from the plurality of layers, from which a shaped composite article may be made.10-16-2008
20080261471Polyolefinic Materials for Plastic Composites - A reinforced composite article and method for making the same. The article and method employ at least one elongated member as a reinforcement phase. Specific elongated members are multiple layer structures wherein the layers are each polyolefinic (e.g., at least one of the layers may be a propylene-based polymer, such as a propylene-ethylene copolymer, an isotactic polypropylene homopolymer, or a combination thereof). Optionally, at least one of the layers may include a non-migratory process aid or surface modifier agent. An intermediate form including the elongated member may made and processed (for example, with a step of consolidation) to form a composite article.10-23-2008
