A plastic container, preform or article includes a multilayer wall having at least one layer of matrix resin, at least one layer of barrier resin, and an adhesion-promoting material blended with the barrier resin and/or the matrix resin to promote bonding between the barrier and matrix layers. The matrix resin preferably is an ester-containing resin, most preferably a polyester such as PET. The adhesion-promoting material includes an amine polymer, preferably an imine polymer having a plurality of available primary, secondary or tertiary amine groups. An alkylene imine polymer is preferred, particularly a polyethyleneimine polymer.

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of making a multilayer plastic container that includes: (a) blending with a barrier resin, an adhesion-promoting material comprising alkylene imine polymer, and (b) forming a preform in which the blend formed in step (a) is in layers alternating with layers of polyester resin, and in which said alkylene imine polymer promotes adhesion between said barrier resin and said polyester resin. 2. The method set forth in claim 1 further including: (c) blow molding the preform formed in step (b) into a hollow plastic container. 3. The method set forth in claim 2 wherein said step (b) is carried out while at least one of said blend formed in said step (a) and said polyester resin is in melt phase. 4. The method set forth in claim 3 wherein said step (b) is carried out by a process selected from the group consisting of simultaneously injection molding said polyester resin and said barrier resin blend, sequentially injection molding said polyester resin and said barrier resin blend, overmolding sequential layers of said polyester resin and said barrier resin blend, compression molding a mold charge that includes said polyester resin and said barrier resin blend, and extruding a hollow tube that includes alternate layers of said polyester resin and said barrier resin blend. 5. The method set forth in claim 4 wherein said adhesion-promoting material is a polyethyleneimine polymer. 6. The method set forth in claim 5 wherein said polyester resin is PET, PEN, a blend or copolymer of PET and PEN, or reg rind that includes PET, PEN, or blends or copolymers of PET and PEN. 7. The method set forth in claim 1 wherein said barrier resin is EVOH, polyamide, an acrylonitrile copolymer, a blend of EVOH and polyamide, a blend of polyester and polyamide, a nanocomposite of EVOH or polyamide and clay, a blend of EVOH and an ionomer, acrylonitrile, a cyclic olefin copolymer, polyglycolic acid, polyvinylidene chloride, or blends thereof. 8. A method of making a multilayer plastic article which is a preform for blow molding a plastic container having a multilayer wall or a blow-molded plastic container having a multilayer wall, the method including: (a) blending with a barrier resin, an adhesion-promoting material comprising an amine polymer, and (b) forming an article in which the blend formed in step (a) is in layers alternating with layers of matrix resin comprising an ester-containing resin, and in which said amine polymer promotes adhesion between said barrier rsin and said matrix resin, wherein said step (b) is carried out while at least one of said blend formed in said step (a) and said matrix resin is in melt phase, and wherein said amine polymer is an alkylene imine polymer. 9. The method set forth in claim 8 wherein said alkylene imine polymer is a polyethyleneimine polymer. 10. A method of making a multilayer plastic article which is a preform for blow molding a plastic container having a multilayer wall or a blow-molded plastic container having a multilayer wall, the method including: (a) blending with a barrier resin, an adhesion-promoting material comprising an alkylene imine polymer, and (b) forming an article in which the blend formed in step (a) is in layers alternating with layers of matrix resin comprising an ester-containing resin, and in which said alkylene imine polymer promotes adhesion between said barrier resin and said matrix resin, wherein said ester-containing resin is a polyester resin and said barrier resin is polyamide or EVOH. 11. The method set forth in claim 10 wherein said matrix resin is a polyester resin. 12. The method set forth in claim 11 wherein said polyester resin is PET, PEN, a blend or copolymer of PET and PEN, or regrind that includes PET, PEN, or blends or copolymers of PET and PEN. 13. A method of making a multilayer plastic article which is a preform for blow molding a plastic container having a multilayer wall or a blow-molded plastic container having a multilayer wall, the method including: (a) blending with a barrier resin, an adhesion-promoting material comprising an alkylene imine polymer, and (b) forming an article in which the blend formed in step (a) is in layers alternating with layers of matrix resin comprising an ester-containing resin, and in which said alkylene imine polymer promotes adhesion between said barrier resin and said matrix resin, wherein said barrier resin is EVOH, polyamide, an acrylonitrile copolymer, a blend of EVOH and polyamide, a blend of polyester and polyamide, a nanocomposite of EVOH or polyamide and clay, a blend of EVOH and an ionomer, acrylonitrile, a cyclic olefin copolymer, polyglycolic acid, polyvinylidene chloride, or blends thereof. 14. A method of making an article, which includes: blending an alkylene imine polymer with a barrier resin; and positioning the blend adjacent an ester-containing resin to form said article that resists migration of carbon dioxide through a sidewall of said article. 15. The method set forth in claim 14 wherein said barrier resin is selected from EVOH, polyamide, acrylonitrile copolymers, a blend of EVOH and polyamide, a blend of polyester and polyamide, a nanocomposite of EVOH or polyamide and clay, a blend of EVOH and an ionomer, acrylonitrile, a cyclic olefin copolymer, polyglycolic acid, polyvinylidene chloride, or a blend thereof. 16. The method set forth in claim 15 wherein said sidewall is a multilayer wall having at least two plastic resin layers, and wherein said alkylene imine polymer is in one of said layers. 17. The method set forth in claim 16 wherein an other of said at least two layers includes polyester resin. 18. The method set forth in claim 14 wherein said alkylene imine polymer is a polyethyleneimine polymer.
