摘要 |
An article of manufacture includes an oxygen scavenger, and a polymer selected from the group consisting of a polymer derived from a propylene monomer, a polymer derived from a methyl acrylate monomer, a polymer derived from a butyl acrylate monomer, a polymer derived from a methacrylic acid monomer, polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG), amorphous nylon, ionomer, and a polymeric blend indluding a polyterpene. The article can be in the form of e.g. a film, a polymeric functional barrier coating on an oxygen scavenging lacquer, or a gasket. A package can be made from this article for containing an oxygen-sensitive article such as food. The described polymers reduce or block the migration of odor causing by-products of an oxygen scavenging process. A method of making an article of manufacture having reduced migration of by-products of an oxygen scavenging reaction includes providing an article including an oxygen scavenger and the above-described polymer; and exposing the article to actinic radiation.
