[Problem to be Solved by the Invention 1] However, in the above blended composition, the basic metal hydroxide with a large particle size remains as it is as a surplus that does not participate in the reaction with free acetic acid. It was found that triboelectrification occurs at the goo exit of the film processing machine during film processing, and this causes sparks from the basic metal hydroxide in the film to the die, causing white scratches on the film. The occurrence of these white scratches is due to the shear rate U during molding process.
