Formulating LLDPE/LDPE blends for abuse-resistant blown film

It was also noted that the blend with 80% LDPE shows higher lamellar orientation than the neat LDPE. This can be interpreted from crystallization dynamics as well as from melt-strength data. LLDPE has a higher crystallization temperature than LDPE during cooling, as noted previously. Therefore, the...

More Information
Summary:It was also noted that the blend with 80% LDPE shows higher lamellar orientation than the neat LDPE. This can be interpreted from crystallization dynamics as well as from melt-strength data. LLDPE has a higher crystallization temperature than LDPE during cooling, as noted previously. Therefore, the blend with 20% LLDPE in LDPE could crystallize at a higher temperature than LDPE.
