Abstract

The present invention provides a novel process for the coextrusion of a laminate containing more than a single barrier layer. The process overcomes the interfacial instability associated with thinning and spreading a composite stream containing a barrier layer of EVOH. Furthermore, the process prevents migration of EVOH particles from regrind.
