Leather-like articles made from cellulosic filler loaded ethylene interpolymers.

摘要

Articles having leather-like appearance are obtained from compositions comprising 15-55% by weight of an ethylene interpolymer such as ethylene/vinyl ester, ethylene/unsaturated mono- or dicarboxylic acids or esters of said unsaturated acids. ethylene/a-olefin copolymers, etc.; 1-15% by weight of at least one plasticizer selected from the group consisting of processing oils, epoxidized oils, polyesters, polyethers and polyetheresters; 20-70% by weight of cellulosic filler or mixture of cellulosic filler and mineral filler; 0-10% by weight of at least one additive, such as organic acid organic acid derivative and surface active agent: and 0-27.5% by weight of elastomeric polymer.
