Abstract
The invention relates to a tie comprising a blend of grafted polyethylene (PE), of grafted or ungrafted high-impact or crystal polystyrene and optionally of ungrafted PE. The grafted PE is preferably composed of two different cografted PEs. This tie is of use in the manufacture of multilayer structures intended for the field of Civil Engineering Works (CEW), more particularly for the fields of aluminium panels, of multilayer pipes, but also for the field of packaging.
Claims13
Tie comprising, (% by total weight of the said tie):
- from 10 to 79% of a polyethylene (PE) (A) which is a very low density polyethylene (VLDPE) with a density of between 0.870 and 0.910 g/cm3 or of a blend of at least two polyethylenes, PE (A1) and PE(A2), where:
- PE (A2), which is a VLDPE with a density of between 0.870 and 0.910 g/cm3, is different from PE (A1),
- PE (A) is grafted or the blend PE (A1) and (A2) is grafted or co-grafted,lend
- PE(A), PE(A1) or PE(A2) are chosen from PE homopolymers and copolymers, said copolymers comprising at least 51 mole % of ethylene and a comonomer selected from the group consisting of:
- an alpha-olefin chosen from propylene, 1-butene, 1-pentene, 3-methyl-1-butene, 1-hexene, 4-methyl-1-pentene, 3-methyl-1-pentene, 1-octene, 1-decene, 1-dodecene, 1-tetradecene, 1-hexadecene, 1-octadecene, 1-eicocene, 1-dococene, 1-tetracocene, 1-hexacocene, 1-octacocene, 1-triacontene and mixtures thereof;
- and wherein said PE (A) or blend of at least two polyethylenes, PE (A1) and PE(A2) is not selected from the group consisting of esters of unsaturated carboxylic acids, vinylesters of saturated carboxylic acids, and dienes;
- from 21 to 50% of a grafted or ungrafted high-impact PS(B) or a grafted or ungrafted crystal PS (B);
- and
- from 0 to 70% of an ungrafted PE(C) obtained by Ziegler-Natta catalysis.
