Abstract

A multi-layer composite made of at least one copolyamide protective layer, and at least one copolyamide barrier layer, with the protective layer placed such that it is between the barrier layer and a source of moisture. The protective copolyamide layer is composed of a partially aromatic, amorphous copolyamide of a specified composition, and the barrier layer is composed of a partially aromatic barrier copolyamide of a specified composition. This multi-layer composite is especially useful in reusable packaging systems, such as beverage bottles or containers of any kind.
