Zusammenfassung: | Readily castable high density polyethylene (HDPE) films, preferably containi ng broad molecular weight distribution HDPE resin having treated upper skin layers and untreated lower skin layers, preferably coextruded, on each side. The treated upper skin layer is derived from a polymer, e.g. ethylene-propylene-butene-1 terpolymer, and the lower skin layer is derived from a polymer such as ethy lene- propylene-butene-1 terpolymer and LDPE compounded with silicone oil. Such sk in layers provide a film which is readily castable while maintaining the desirable properties of HDPE including dead fold, twist rete ntion, TD tear and moisture barrier. The films are cast, and oriented in the solid state up to about two times in the machine direction a nd six times or more in the transverse direction to give films having good dead-fold characteristics making them highly suited for packagin g, particularly for dry foods. |
