TLDR
In this article, the concept of binary blends of cellulose esters and aliphatic-aromatic copolyesters was introduced, as well as ternary blends of the two types.Abstract:
This invention relates to binary blends of cellulose esters and aliphatic-aromatic copolyesters, cellulose esters and aliphatic polyesters as well as ternary blends of cellulose esters and/or aliphatic polyesters and/or aliphatic-aromatic copolyesters and/or polymeric compounds as well as fibers, molded objects, and films prepared therefrom.read more

Charles Michael Buchanan,Leron R. Dean,William Alston Haile,Richard Leon Mcconnell,Mark E. Tincher,Alan Wayne White +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the concept of aliphatic-aromatic copolyesters was introduced, as well as blends of cellulose esters and polymeric compounds, including fibers, nonwovens, molded objects, and films prepared therefrom.
Patent
Biodegradable polymer films and sheets suitable for use as laminate coatings as well as wraps and other packaging materials
TL;DR: In this article, a combination of hard and soft polymers have been discovered which possess synergistic properties superior to those of either hard or soft polymer by themselves by themselves, such as polyesters, polyesteramides and thermoplastically processable starch.

Linear condensation polymers
TL;DR: In this paper, a continuation in part of the application Serial No. 548,701 filed July 3, 1931 is described, which relates to compositions of matter, and more particularly to new polyamides.
Patent
Fiber and method of producing it
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method for the preparation of high molecular weight linear superpolymers with unusual and valuable properties, and more particularly it relates to the production of fibers from synthetic fibers.
Patent
Disposable articles coated with degradable water insoluble polymers
TL;DR: In this paper, a surface of a substrate made from a degradable water-insoluble polymer is described as the surface of an article or substrate that is covered with such a substrate.
Patent
Manufacture of polymeric products
TL;DR: The sheet materials are of particular value as diaper backsheets and ostomy bags as mentioned in this paper, and they may include a layer of nonwoven material, such as non-woven yarn, to increase strength or impermeability.
Patent
3-Hydroxybutyric acid polymers
TL;DR: A solvent-free preform of a 3-hydroxybutyric acid polymer is subjected to a compression step to reduce its thickness by at least 5% and the compressed preform is then drawn uni- or bi-axially to induce orientation as mentioned in this paper.
