Abstract:

The present invention provides a coated polymer film having an essentially streak-free coated surface that resists the formation of fog. The film includes a self-supporting polymer film layer, and an anti-fog coating on the film layer. The anti-fog coating, which can also be applied to alternate substrates, consisting essentially of a copolyester binder and an anionic surfactant, wherein the surfactant contains less than about 0. 5 weight percent of a fluorosurfactant. A slip agent can also be included in the anti-fog coating.

Abstract:

A multi-layer composite film that has flame retardant properties. In one embodiment, the composite film includes a middle layer containing a fumable flame retardant. The middle layer is positioned between two outer film layers. The outer film layers also contain a flame retardant. The flame retardant contained in the outer layers, however, is different than the fumable flame retardant contained in the middle layer. The composite film can be used to produce numerous different articles, such as window treatments, labels, release liners, wrapping materials for the electronics industry, and the like. In one embodiment, a metallized layer may be adhered to one side of the composite film.
