Ferner kann die Außenschicht einen kleinen Teil der gesamten Elastomerzusammensetzung ausmachen und die elastische Wirkung der Zusammensetzung aufrechterhalten. An elastomeric composition is provided that includes at least an outer layer and a core layer having non-blocking properties such that the elastomeric composition can be wound. The core layer includes an elastomer and the outer layer includes an elastomer, which may be the same as or different from the core layer, and a nonelastic polyolefin. Furthermore, the skin layer can constitute a small part of the total elastomer composition and maintain the elastic effect of the composition.

Mutilayer polyethylene films, and articles made therefrom

A multilayer polyethylene film comprising a core layer, a first outer layer, and a second outer layer, wherein the core layer is positioned between the first outer layer and the second outer layer, the core layer comprises a linear low density polyethylene and, optionally, a first low density polyethylene resin, and the first outer layer and the second outer layer independently comprise a polyethylene resin and, optionally, a second low density polyethylene resin, wherein the density of the linear low density polyethylene is less than the density of the polyethylene resin.
