    摘要: An expanded cellular ethylenic polymer product is provided from an irradiated, noncross-linked linear ethylenic polymer. Linear ethylenic polymers can be irradiated at ambient conditions sufficient to introduce branching in the polymer in the absence of detectable cross-linking as indicated by the absence of gels. The irradiated linear ethylenic polymer is compatible with highly branched low density polyethylene and, when mixed therewith, produces a resin having a single broad based melting temperature range as determined by direct scanning calorimetry, which indicates that the polymers in the mixture have similar crystallization behavior suitable for producing low density foams by extrusion foaming. The linear polymers can be obtained from recycled shrink wrap film. Low densities of from 0.7 to less than 4 pcf can be achieved. The foams typically have improved tear resistance as compared to previous products prepared from low density polyethylene, at comparable low densities.

    摘要: A method for making an oriented foam generally includes the steps of: a. blending molten polyethylene and a blowing agent to form a foamable mixture; b. producing a foam by extruding the mixture at a predetermined rate through a die and into a region of reduced pressure so that the blowing agent expands within the mixture; and c. orienting the foam by drawing the foam out of the die at a rate that is between 1 and 1.5 times greater than the predetermined rate at which the mixture is extruded.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method for producing a UV induced crosslinked foam in which a melt stream comprising a thermoplastic polymer, a UV crosslinking agent and a photoinitiator is crosslinked by exposing the melt stream to a source of UV light source prior to extruding the melt through an extrusion die. Exposing the melt stream to UV light causes the photoinitiator to become excited and react with the crosslinking agent to generate a free radical. The thus generated free radical reacts with the thermoplastic polymer to induce crosslinking in the polymer. Crosslinking of the polymer can be done prior to extrusion so that the crosslinking process can be carried out without additional steps and/or without the aid of chemical crosslinking agents. The invention also provides an apparatus for producing a crosslinked foam in which the apparatus includes a UV chamber disposed between the extruder and the die through which UV light can be introduced into the melt stream.

    摘要: A process additive for polyolefin films and foams produces products having reduced greasiness and reduced grease-like transfer as compared to glycerol monostearate (GMS). The process additive comprises a fatty acid N-aliphatic alcohol amide of the general formula R--CON(R')R". R is a fatty hydrocarbon radical having from about 8 to 30 carbons. R' typically is hydrogen. R' can also be an alkyl radical of from about 1 to 6 carbons or an alkyl alcohol radical of from about 1 to 6 carbons. R" is an alkyl alcohol fragment of from about 1 to 6 carbons. The alkyl alcohol fragments can be monohydric or polyhydric. Secondary fatty monoalkanolamides in which R' is hydrogen are particularly useful, especially stearamide monoethanolamine (MEA). The benefits of the invention can be achieved and enhanced in some examples by mixing the fatty acid N-aliphatic alcohol amide with an ester of a long chain fatty acid with a polyhydric alcohol, including GMS. Examples of fatty acid N-aliphatic alcohol amides include cocamide MEA, lauramide monoisopropylamine (MIPA), oleamide MIPA, and stearamide 2,3-propanediol.
