Packaging of foodstuffs

TLDR
In this paper, the authors describe polymeric laminates for packaging which contain an oxygen barrier layer which is composed of a hydrolysed olefin/vinyl ester copolymer, and other layers in the laminate protect the oxygen barrier from moisture and provide a heat-sealable surface layer.
Abstract
A B S T R A C T The invention relates to polymeric laminates for packaging. According to the invention, such laminates contain an oxygen barrier layer which is composed of a hydrolysed olefin/vinyl ester copolymer, preferably a hydrolysed ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer. Other layers in the laminate protect the oxygen barrier layer from moisture and provide a heat-sealable surface layer. The laminates withstand the temperatures of 80-125°C employed in pasteurisation and sterilisation procedures, and are therefor of value in the preparation of pasteurised and sterilised packages of oxygen-sensitive foodstuffs.

Multilayered polymer structure for medical products

TL;DR: In this paper, a multiple layer structure for fabricating medical products is presented, which has a core layer (14) of an ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer, a solution contact layer of a polyolefin positioned on a first side of the core layer, an outer layer (12) positioned on the second side opposite the solution contact, the outer layer being selected from the group consisting of polyamides, polyesters, and polyolefins; two tie layers (18) - one of each adhered to the first and second sides of core layer and positioned
