Patent ID: 8193275

Claim:
A coated substrate comprising: a substrate; and a coating composition associated with at least one surface of said substrate, wherein said coating composition comprises an aqueous dispersion compsrising the melt kneading of (A) at least one thermoplastic resin,wherein thermoplastic resin is (i) an interpolymer of ethylene with at least one comonomer selected from the group consisting of a C4-C20 linear, branched or cyclic diene, and a compound represented by the formula H2C═CHR wherein R is a C1-C20 linear, branched or cyclic alkyl group or a C6-C20 aryl group; or (ii) an interpolymer of propylene with at least one comonomer selected from the group consisting of ethylene, a C4-C20 linear, branched or cyclic diene, and a compound represented by the formula H2C═CHR wherein R is a C1-C20 linear, branched or cyclic alkyl group or a C6-C20 aryl group and (B) at least one dispersing agent; and (C) in the presence of water and optionally a basic substance in an extruder; wherein said aqueous dispersion has an average volume particle size diameter in the range of from 0.5 to 5 μm and a pH in the range of from 8 to 11.
