LDPE used in combination with V-LDPE according to the invention
Has a density of about 0.912 to 0.930 g / cm 3 , and its use ratio is about 2 to 100 parts by weight of LDPE, preferably about 5 to 50 parts by weight, relative to 100 parts by weight of V-LDPE. At this time, if the proportion of LDPE used is too large, the desired effect cannot be expected sufficiently. As this LDPE, both linear and branched ones can be used, but the linear one is particularly preferable. As these LDPEs, those having MI of about 0.3 to 5.0 are usually used.
