Abstract

In order to improve the stretchability of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) for double bubble tubular film (DBTF), the blending of LLDPEs have been investigated. Three LLDPEs of varying densities were blended, and several films having different densities, molecular-weight distributions and composition distributions were produced. The stretchability and properties of these films were investigated and the relationship between the stretchability and the material properties were also discussed. The material properties of LLDPE which showed better stretchability were reported. Furthermore, the stretchability of LLDPE by using the laboratory tenter stretched film (LTSF) and the DBTF were compared. The prediction of the stretchability for the DBTF by using the LTSF was reported.
