Abstract
AbstractThin films were blown from a composition of 75% linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) and 25% LDPE. The LLDPE content was made up of different % of metallocene‐based and conventional octene‐based LLDPE. Tensile strength, dart impact strength, hot tack strength, heat seal strength, and the barrier properties of these films were measured. All the properties showed significant improvement when conventional LLDPE (cLLDPE) was replaced by metallocene‐based LLDPE (mLLDPE), even to the extent of only 25%. The blends of 50% mLLDPE and 50% LDPE showed attractive properties. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 81: 53–57, 2001
