Abstract
A coated thermoplastic film and a method of making the coated film, wherein at least one side of the film is coated with a coating composition, the coating composition comprising the reaction product of a polyalkyleneimine having at least primary nitrogens, and an epoxide compound having at least one epoxide moiety and a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of at least 200 g/mole. The weight of the dried coating compound on each side of the film is within the range from 0.005 g/m2 to 0.100 g/m2, and is especially useful in coating films to allow for printability when the film surface will be exposed to high levels of silicon that might come from, for example, release paper/films.

A coated thermoplastic film having a coating composition on at least one side of the coated thermoplastic film, the coating composition comprising a substituted polyalkyleneimine having one or more primary amines:
- wherein each R, independently, is a hydrogen or an epoxide-derived group having at least one epoxide moiety and a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of at least 200 g/mole;
- each R″, independently, is selected from divalent C1 to C4 or C6 or C10 alkylene groups;
- and wherein n is a value within a range of from 50 to 20,000.

A method for making a coated film comprising:
- combining in water a polyalkyleneimine having one or more primary amines, and an epoxide compound having at least one epoxide moiety and a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of at least 200 g/mole, and forming a reaction product;
- diluting the reaction product in the water to a solids level within a range of from 0.1% or 20% solids;
- applying subsequent to the diluting, the reaction product evenly to at least one surface of a thermoplastic film;
- drying, subsequent to the applying, the reaction product on the at least one surface of the thermoplastic film to form a dried coating composition at a temperature within a range of from 70° C. to 140° C.;
- and
- wherein a weight of the dried coating composition on each side of the thermoplastic film is within a range from 0.005 g/m2 to 0.100 g/m2.
