Abstract
This invention relates to a tube prepared by the process comprising the steps of (1) blending polymer composition comprising (A) ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer and greater than 0.020% by weight of a cross-linking agent; or (B) a mixture of (a) a major amount of an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, (b) a minor amount of one or more polymers selected from (i) an propylene ethylene copolymer, (ii) at least one selectively hydrogenated block copolymer of a vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon and a conjugated diene, (iii) at least one selectively hydrogenated block copolymer of a vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon and a conjugated diene to which has been grafted with an alpha,beta-olefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic or dicarboxylic acid reagent, (iv) at least one terpolymer of an alpha-olefin, at least one acrylic ester, and an alpha,beta-olefinically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid reagent, or a glycidyl acrylate, (v) at least copolymer of an alpha-olefin and at least one acrylic ester, (vi) at least one vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon; and (vii) at least one polyetheramide block copolymer, and optionally, (c) a cross-linking agent provided that when (b) is (i), then the mixture includes the cross linki…
