20080281048 | Heat resistant polypropylene film - A heat resistant film that comprises at least one layer that comprises a high crystallinity propylene polymer having a melt flow rate of from 0.5 g/10 min. to 15 g/10 min. and a xylene solubles of less than 3.5%. The propylene polymer may have a melting point above 158° C. The heat resistant film may further comprise at least a second layer, which may be a heterophasic random copolymer. The heat resistant film may be, for example, a blown film, a cast film, or an oriented film, and may be used in such articles of manufacture as construction films, retort packaging, and laminated articles. | 11-13-2008 |
20090156773 | Modified resins for blown film - Processes for enhancing blown film processability and the blown films formed thereby are described herein. One embodiment of the processes generally includes providing a first propylene based heterophasic copolymer having a first melt flow rate, modifying the first propylene based heterophasic copolymer to form a second heterophasic polymer having a second melt flow rate, wherein the second melt flow rate is greater than the first melt flow rate, contacting the first heterophasic polymer, the second heterophasic copolymer or a combination thereof with a plurality of additives, wherein the plurality of additives include a nucleator, polyethylene and mineral oil to form a modified heterophasic copolymer and blowing the modified heterophasic polymer into a film. | 06-18-2009 |
20100003494 | Opaque Films for Use in Packaging - An opaque polymer film is prepared by admixing high crystalline polypropylene with a microvoid causing filler and extruding to form a sheet that is then biaxially stretched to form an opaque film. End uses for these films include soda bottles, candy wrappers and synthetic paper. | 01-07-2010 |
20100129734 | Polypropylene Providing Improved Surface Properties - Propylene based films and methods of forming the sate are described herein. The propylene based films generally include a core layer formed of an olefin polymer, an embossing layer disposed on an exterior surface of the core layer and entirely formed of a metallocene formed propylene based polymer selected from propylene homopolymers, propylene based random copolymers formed of of polypropylene and polyethylene and combinations thereof, wherein the embossing layer includes an outer surface having a marking formed thereon and wherein the film is capable of retaining the marking thereon. | 05-27-2010 |
20100247887 | POLYOLEFIN FILMS FOR IN-MOLD LABELS - An in-mold label comprising a cast film and a process for producing a cast film, that comprises a polypropylene resin and a nucleator. The polypropylene resin has a melt flow rate from 2 dg/min. to 10 dg/min., a xylene solubles content less than 1 wt %, and meso pentad distribution greater than 98%. | 09-30-2010 |
20120095155 | MODIFIED RESINS FOR BLOWN FILM - Processes for enhancing blown film processability and the blown films formed thereby are described herein. One embodiment of the processes generally includes providing a first propylene based heterophasic copolymer having a first melt flow rate, modifying the first propylene based heterophasic copolymer to form a second heterophasic polymer having a second melt flow rate, wherein the second melt flow rate is greater than the first melt flow rate, contacting the first heterophasic polymer, the second heterophasic copolymer or a combination thereof with a plurality of additives, wherein the plurality of additives include a nucleator, polyethylene and mineral oil to form a modified heterophasic copolymer and blowing the modified heterophasic polymer into a film. | 04-19-2012 |
20140049036 | ISOLATION RING ON GAP SUB - A gap sub comprises at least one, and in a preferred embodiment, two electrically isolating threaded joints in a conductive tubular collar. The threads of the joints are isolated by a non-conductive coating in accordance with the prior art. The shoulders of the joints are separated by an isolating ring. Annular faces on the ring make contact with the shoulders in the joints. The ring is made of conductive material with a non-conductive coating deployed on (1) at least one, and advantageously both, of the ring's annular faces, and (2) the interior surface of the ring. An annular recess in the collar prevents electrical contact between collar sections nearby the ring either side of each threaded joint. | 02-20-2014 |
20140265304 | COMPOSITE ISOLATION JOINT FOR GAP SUB OR INTERNAL GAP - A non-conductive composite insert is provided between conductive portions, useful, for example, in downhole EM telemetry applications as an external “gap sub” in a drill collar, or as a sonde-based internal gap. In a preferred embodiment, the composite is made from a glass-fiber reinforced plastic, and separates non-magnetic conductive portions made from stainless steel. The composite insert provides a slanted or tapered transition into the conductive portions at either or both ends of the insert. The transitions on the composite insert may comprise one or more tapered surfaces, which may be male or female in configuration with respect to matching transitions on the conductive portions. The transitions may be bonded together by adhesive, or alternatively may be threaded. | 09-18-2014 |
