DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1.
In a laminate structure comprising a base layer and a polycarbonate layer bonded to the base layer, the improvement wherein the polycarbonate layer is an adhesive barrier layer and the polyalkylene carbonate is represented by the formula: ##STR3## R.
sub.
1 is hydrogen, a halomethyl group or hydrocarbyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms; R.
sub.
3 is hydrogen, a halomethyl group, or a hydrocarbyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms; R.
sub.
2 and R.
sub.
4 are hydrogen, or hydrocarbyl groups having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms; or R.
sub.
1, r.
sub.
2, r.
sub.
3 and R.
sub.
4 are combined together constituting a carbocyclic ring having from 4 to 7 carbon atoms; and n is a number from about 250 to about 6,500.
2.
The laminate structure of claim 1 wherein the base layer is thermally formable and heat sealable.
3.
The laminate structure of claim 2 wherein the base layer is a polyolefin.
4.
The laminate structure of claim 3 wherein the polyolefin base layer is selected from the group consisting of polyethylene and polypropylene or copolymers thereof.
5.
The laminate structure of claim 1 wherein said base layer is dimensionally stable.
6.
The laminate structure of claim 5 wherein said base layer is selected from the group consisting of regenerated cellulose, polyamide, aluminum foil, paper, and polyester.
7.
The laminate structure of claim 4 wherein R.
sub.
2 and R.
sub.
4 of said polycarbonate are hydrogen.
8.
The laminate structure of claim 7 wherein R.
sub.
1 is selected from hydrogen and methyl, and R.
sub.
3 is hydrogen.
9.
The laminate structure of claim 8 wherein the molecular weight of the barrier layer is from about 50,000 to 150,000.
10.
A laminate structure having excellent oxygen and moisture vapor barrier properties comprising: a base layer selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polypropylene, regenerated cellulose, paper, polyamide, polyester, aluminum foil, polystyrene and ionomer; and an adhesive barrier layer of a polyalkylene carbonate bonded to said base layer, said polycarbonate formed by reacting carbon dioxide and an epoxide selected from the group consisting of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, said polycarbonate having a molecular weight of from 50,000 to about 150,000
