摘要:
Film layers made from formulated polymer compositions are disclosed. Film layers made from such formulated compositions have surprisingly good (for example, low) water vapor transmission rates and are particularly useful for packaging dry goods such as cereal. The polymer compositions preferably have at least one homogeneous ethylene homopolymer and at least one heterogeneously branched ethylene polymer. The homogeneous ethylene homopolymer has a molecular weight much higher than that of the heterogeneously branched ethylene polymer, although the density of each is preferably higher than about 0.95 g/cm3.

A process for extruding a thermoplastic composition at higher drawdown rates with less neck-in and greater resistance to draw resonance as well as processes for extrusion coating a substrate and for making an extrusion-cast film are disclosed. The thermoplastic composition is made of at least one substantially linear ethylene polymer used alone or in combination with at least one high-pressure ethylene polymer and/or with at least one heterogeneous linear olefin polymer.

A mixing system is disclosed comprising at least one extensional flow mixer comprising: a generally open and hollow body having a contoured outer surface and having: a single entrance port and a single exit port; a means for compressing a bulk stream flowing through the generally open and hollow body in a direction of flow and at least one injected additive stream introduced at the single entrance port in the direction of flow; and a means for broadening the bulk stream and the at least one injected additive stream such that an interfacial area between the bulk stream and the at least one injected additive stream is increased as the bulk stream and the at least one injected additive stream flow through the generally open and hollow body in the direction of flow to promote mixing of the bulk stream and the at least one injected additive stream, a flow conductor having an axis and having a generally open and hollow flow mixer body secured therein; and a primary additive stream injector positioned at the entrance port of the generally open and hollow flow mixer body, wherein the primary additive stream injector injects an additive stream into the interior of the flow mixer in the direction of flow when the bulk stream is flowing through the generally open and hollow flow mixer body to allow compression and broadening of the bulk stream and the additive stream together to facilitate mixing of the bulk stream and the primary additive stream at an exit of the extensional flow mixer, wherein the extensional flow mixer is followed by at least one of helical static mixing elements that is at least one half flow conductor diameter downstream of the exit of the extensional flow mixer.

A process and thermoplastic composition for high line speed extrusion without high neck-in and draw resonance are disclosed. The thermoplastic composition is made of at least one ethylene polymer having a Dow Rheology Index (DRI) of at least 0.1 or, alternately, at least one substantially linear ethylene polymer, used alone or in combination with at least one high-pressure ethylene polymer and/or with at least one heterogeneous linear olefin polymer.
摘要:
A homogeneous, random interpolymer of ethylene and an alpha-olefinically unsaturated carboxylic acid or ester having a melt flow rate in the range of about 0.1 to about 300 g/10 minutes, as determined by ASTM D-1238 (190.degree. C./2160 g), is improved during its manufacture when made in a substantially constant environment in a stirred autoclave under substantially steady-state conditions of temperature, pressure, and flow rates, said temperature and pressure being sufficient to produce a single phase reaction, using a free-radical initiator, said improvement being obtained by the use of a minor amount of a telogenic modifier in the reaction mixture, the process being further characterized by the use of either, or both, of (a) a temperature which is lower than that which would be required without the presence of the telogen, or (b) a pressure which is higher than that which would be required without the presence of the modifier.
