Influence of the nature of pro-oxidants on the photooxidation of polyethylene blown films
Heliyon, 2022 In an attempt to reduce the accumulation of polymeric waste in the environment, such as plastic bags, the use of pro-oxidants has been adopted in polyolefins, including polyethylene (PE), which is one of the most used polymers in film production.

An experimental study on process-oriented scale-up/scale-down in blown film extrusion [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2020 The transfer of experimental test results from a small-scale system to a large-scale production system is known as scale-up or, conversely, scale-down. For film-producing companies, scale-up is a common procedure in the development process of new composite films or material recipes, where the main objective is to obtain equal film properties in the ...
