1. A polymer blend for a multilayer structure comprising:
a copolymer comprising ethylene and at least one of methyl acrylate and ethyl acrylate having an acrylate content of 5 to 40 weight percent based on the weight of the copolymer and having a melt index (I2) of 5 to 60 g/10 minutes, wherein the total amount of ethylene methyl acrylate copolymer and ethylene ethyl acrylate copolymer comprises 45 to 99 weight percent of the blend based on the total weight of the blend; and
a polyethylene having a density of 0.870 g/cm3 or more and having a melt index (I2) of 20 g/10 minutes or less, wherein the polyethylene comprises 1 to 55 weight percent of the blend based on the total weight of the blend, wherein the relative viscosity ratio of the polyethylene to the copolymer comprising ethylene and at least one of methyl acrylate and ethyl acrylate is <0.35 and wherein the blend is adapted to be extrusion coated on a substrate at a temperature of 296° C. to 319° C.
