Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to a process for the manufacture of monoaxially stretched film strips from a film of a high-polymer thermoplastic synthetic material, in which process the film is longitudinally stretched in at least two stretching zones and is cut into strips between the two zones, the first zone being a relatively short stretching zone in the range of a few millimeters to the film thickness and the second stretching zone being a relatively long stretching zone in the range of the initial width of the film to several meters.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 95 words
A PROCESS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF MONOAXIALLY STRETCHED FILM STRIP FROM A FILM OF A HIGH-POLYMER THERMOSPLASTIC SYNTHETIC MATERIAL WHICH COMPRISES EXTRUDING A MELT OF THE HIGHPOLYMER MATERIAL FROM A FLAT DIE TO FORM A FILM, LONGITUDINALLY STRETCHING THE FILM HEATED TO AN EFFECTIVE STRETCHING TEMPERATURE IN A NARROW GAP IN THE RANGE OF A FEW MILLIMETERS TO THE FILM THICKNESS, CUTTING THE FILM LONGITUDINALLY INTO STRIPS, AND LONGITUDINALLY STRETCHING THE STRIPS HEATED TO AN EFFECTIVE STRETCHING TEMPERATURE IN A WIDE GAP IN THE RANGE OF THE INITIAL WIDTH OF THE FILM TO SEVERAL METERS.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 95 words
A PROCESS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF MONOAXIALLY STRETCHED FILM STRIP FROM A FILM OF A HIGH-POLYMER THERMOSPLASTIC SYNTHETIC MATERIAL WHICH COMPRISES EXTRUDING A MELT OF THE HIGHPOLYMER MATERIAL FROM A FLAT DIE TO FORM A FILM, LONGITUDINALLY STRETCHING THE FILM HEATED TO AN EFFECTIVE STRETCHING TEMPERATURE IN A NARROW GAP IN THE RANGE OF A FEW MILLIMETERS TO THE FILM THICKNESS, CUTTING THE FILM LONGITUDINALLY INTO STRIPS, AND LONGITUDINALLY STRETCHING THE STRIPS HEATED TO AN EFFECTIVE STRETCHING TEMPERATURE IN A WIDE GAP IN THE RANGE OF THE INITIAL WIDTH OF THE FILM TO SEVERAL METERS.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 22 words
A process according to claim 1 in which the second stretching is performed in two stages in stretching zones of different lengths.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 44 words
A process according to claim 1 in which stretching is performed in the short stretching zone at a ratio lambda 1 of (2 to 6) : 1 and in the long stretching zone at a ratio lambda 2 of (1.2 to 5) : 1.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 27 words
A process according to claim 1 in which the film is selected from the group consisting of a polyolefin, a copolymer thereof or a polymer mixture thereof.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 14 words
A process according to claim 1 in which the film is high density polyethylene.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 12 words
A process according to claim 1 in which the film is polypropylene.
