Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a low-density polyethylene film, a polyethylene mixture and a film having excellent physical properties. More specifically, the present invention relates to a low density polyethylene film, a polyethylene mixture and a film thereof which highly satisfy properties required for packaging applications such as heat sealing properties, transparency, gloss, stiffness, impact strength, and tear strength.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Low-density polyethylene is widely used in the form of a film because of its excellent waterproofness and moisture-proofness, moderate flexibility, relatively good transparency, and relatively good strength. Further, since heat sealing can be performed at a relatively low temperature and the sealing strength is good, it is often used as a packaging film in a single layer or a multilayer form with another thin film material.

[0003] In recent years, there has been a strong demand for packaging films capable of increasing the filling speed. Increasing the filling speed means increasing the film feeding speed, shortening the heat sealing time, and shortening the time until the load of the contents is applied to the sealing surface immediately after the heat sealing. A film that exhibits heat sealability at low temperatures and does not peel off even if the load of the contents is applied while the seal is still hot immediately after heat sealing (good hot tack) is required. In addition, composite films are manufactured by various methods, but a wide range of materials can be combined, and a composite film with beautiful printing can be manufactured. If there is no waist, wrinkles are likely to occur, and for high-speed processing, the strength of the waist is also important. Furthermore, transparency and gloss increase the display value of the packaged contents, and resistance to impact and tearing in any direction is equally important because it enhances the inherent function of the package in protecting the articles.

[0004] Low-density polyethylene is roughly classified into the following two types according to its production method or molecular structure. One is
It is an ethylene polymer produced by a radical polymerization method under high pressure and high temperature and having essentially short-chain branches and long-chain branches. It is thought that short-chain branching is generated by the intramolecular transfer reaction of the growing polymer radical and long-chain branch is generated by the intermolecular transfer reaction. Since α-olefins have a large chain transfer constant in radical polymerization, only a small amount of α-olefins is copolymerized, even if present, in high-molecular-weight low-density polyethylene used as a synthetic resin.

The other is a copolymer of ethylene and an α-olefin by a transition metal catalyzed polymerization represented by a Ziegler catalyzed polymerization. Due to the copolymerization of the α-olefin, short-chain branches having two carbon atoms less than the number of carbon atoms are generated, and the density of the polymer decreases. The latter usually has no long-chain branching and is therefore also referred to as linear low-density polyethylene (L-LDPE). The former was historically invented earlier than the latter, so it was conventionally simply called low-density polyethylene, but it is called branched low-density polyethylene (B-LDPE) to clearly distinguish it from L-LDPE. To

In general, a polymer substance is a mixture of various molecules, and it is widely accepted that the physical properties change depending on the distribution mode. Analysis of distribution style, quantitative and mechanistic elucidation of the relationship between distribution style and various physical properties,
The invention of a polymer substance having improved physical properties by a new distribution mode has become one of the main subjects of polymer science both academically and industrially.

[0007] For low-density polyethylene, the distribution related to molecular weight (molecular weight distribution) and the distribution related to short-chain branching degree (short-chain branching degree distribution) are physically important. While B-LDPE has a broad molecular weight distribution and a relatively narrow short-chain branching distribution, L-LDPE is generally known to have a relatively broad short-chain branching distribution (eg, S. Hosoda: Polymer
J., 20, 383 (1988)). In addition, since the short-chain branching in the L-LDPE molecule is generated by copolymerizing an α-olefin as a comonomer, the distribution of the short-chain branching degree of L-LDPE is also called a comonomer distribution or a (copolymerization) composition distribution. .

The relationship between the composition distribution and physical properties of L-LDPE is as follows.
Various publications have been published. JP-B-46-21212 is one of the earliest publications that has pointed out the importance of comonomer distribution in partially crystalline ethylene-α-olefin copolymers. Here, a copolymer having a uniform distribution of comonomer between molecules has a lower extruded film, higher impact strength, and superior physical properties in the machine direction and its lateral direction, compared to a non-uniform copolymer. "Equilibrium" is disclosed, including examples of the physical properties of blown films of homogeneous and heterogeneous copolymers having a melt index near 2 and a density near 0.919. Here, the copolymer having a uniform comonomer distribution is obtained by copolymerizing ethylene and an α-olefin in the presence of a catalyst prepared by mixing a specific organoaluminum compound and a specific vanadium compound. ing. It also discloses graphically that the homogeneity of the comonomer distribution is identified by the relationship between the density and the melting point of the copolymer. That is, the density of the homogeneous copolymer is lower than the density of the heterogeneous copolymer having the same comonomer content.

[0009] However, there is no description about heat sealing properties and hot tack properties, which are important properties of the low density polyethylene film, and no mention is made of use as a composite film. Later, as shown in Comparative Examples of the present specification, such a homogeneous copolymer has a very narrow heat seal temperature range exhibiting good hot tack properties (and also has a low temperature heat seal property despite low rigidity). Insufficient), although having the above relatively excellent other properties, is practically impractical as a packaging film.

JP-A-59-66405 discloses that a copolymer film of ethylene having a plurality of melting points and an α-olefin having 4 or more carbon atoms has excellent low-temperature heat sealability and high heat resistance. It has been shown. All of the copolymers described in the examples show three melting points, the highest being 124 ° C.
And the lowest melting point lies between 104 and 106 ° C. However, there is no description about hot tack property, and no mention is made of use as a composite film.

JP-A-60-88016 discloses ethylene α
-In the olefin random copolymer, the copolymer specified by a combination of its composition distribution characteristics, branching characteristics, randomness characteristics, DSC melting point characteristics, crystallinity, molecular weight distribution, etc., has mechanical characteristics and optical characteristics. It is disclosed that it has excellent properties such as blocking resistance, heat resistance, and low-temperature heat-sealing property, and has these properties in a well-balanced manner. Regarding the composition distribution characteristics, it is essential that the composition distribution parameter derived by a specific method is equal to or less than a specific value, which means that the composition distribution must be sufficiently narrow. Regarding DSC characteristics, the maximum melting point is in a specific temperature range of 125 ° C or less, the temperature difference between the highest melting point and the lowest melting point is in a certain range, the temperature difference between the highest melting point and the second highest melting point. Is in a specific range, and it is essential that the heat of fusion of crystals at the highest melting point is not more than a specific ratio to the total heat of fusion of crystals.These prerequisites are that the copolymer is not Although it is a heterogeneous copolymer described in 212212, it means that it must be close to a homogeneous copolymer. Further, if the maximum melting point exceeds 125 ° C. and is too high, or if the proportion of the heat of crystal melting of the maximum melting point is too large, the film properties such as low-temperature heat sealability are inferior. Moreover, there is no description about hot tack property here,
There is no mention of use as a composite film. Later, as shown in Comparative Examples of this specification, such an ethylene copolymer is unsatisfactory in film physical properties such as low-temperature heat sealability and hot tack property.

[0012] The composition distribution can also be changed by homogeneously mixing ethylene copolymers (which may also include ethylene homopolymers) having different comonomer contents. In particular, an arbitrary composition distribution can be created in principle by mixing a plurality of homogeneous copolymers.

Further, there is no specific description about the heat sealing property, and no mention is made of the hot tack property.

[0014]

In order to achieve a higher filling speed, which has been strongly demanded in recent years, in a packaging film, it is necessary to have an excellent heat sealing property, especially a hot tack property. Indispensable, furthermore, transparency and gloss are required to enhance the display value of the contents as a packaging film, and high impact strength and large tear strength in any direction are required to enhance the original function of packaging, which is the protection of articles Is as described above. However, conventionally known low-density polyethylene films have been unsatisfactory in their overall physical properties. Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a low-density polyethylene-based film and a material thereof that are most suitable for packaging applications that satisfy all of the above physical properties.

[0015]

Means for Solving the Problems The present inventors have studied in detail the mechanism of developing heat sealing properties, particularly hot tack properties, which are important properties in low density polyethylene for packaging films. The heat sealing process is a process in which the temperature of the film is increased by the heat from the seal bar heated to a predetermined temperature, and the film is allowed to cool after the seal bar is detached. As a result of examining mainly the relationship between the heat sealing property and the hot tack property, it has been found that a specific heat transfer behavior is required to obtain highly excellent heat sealing properties. Furthermore, the low-density polyethylene having such a specific heat transfer behavior is unexpectedly used for the transparency, gloss, waist strength (rigidity), impact strength, and tear strength direction required for a packaging film. Have also been found to be highly satisfactory.

That is, the present invention relates to (1) an endothermic peak (a) in the range of 75 to 100 ° C. in a temperature rising thermogram directly measured from a film state by a differential scanning calorimeter.
And an endothermic peak (b) is observed in the range of 120 to 140 ° C, and an endothermic peak of the endothermic peak (a) with respect to the endothermic amount ΔHa
(2) a low-density polyethylene film, wherein the ratio ΔHb / ΔHa of the heat absorption ΔHb of (b) is 0.03 to 2.0;
A composite film wherein at least one surface layer is a layer comprising the low-density polyethylene film according to claim 1, (3) having a density of 0.895 to 0.915 g / cm ³ , after being completely melted and gradually cooled. In a heating thermogram measured by a differential scanning calorimeter, an endothermic peak is observed in the range of 80 to 100 ° C., and the endothermic amount of the endothermic peak is 0.8 or more with respect to the total calorific value. 2.0
From 10 to 10 mol% of a random copolymer (I) of ethylene and an α-olefin having 3 to 10 carbon atoms in a proportion of 60 to 99 parts by weight and a density of 0.945 g / cm ³ or more. It consists of 40 to 1 parts by weight of high density polyethylene (II) having an endothermic peak at 125 ° C. or higher in a heating thermogram measured by a scanning calorimeter, has a density of 0.900 to 0.930 g / cm ³ , and a melt flow rate. Is 0.
1 to 100 g / 10 minutes polyethylene mixture (where the total amount of random copolymer (I) and high-density polyethylene (II) is 100 parts by weight),
(4) A film characterized by comprising the polyethylene mixture according to claim 3, and (5) a composite film characterized in that at least one surface layer is a layer composed of the film according to claim 4. is there.

As described in the section of the prior art, conventionally,
It has been considered that a linear low-density polyethylene having a narrow composition distribution and close to or having a uniform composition gives a film having excellent transparency, impact strength, low-temperature heat sealability, and the like. If the DSC shows multiple melting points,
The maximum melting point is not too high, and the smaller the heat of crystal fusion,
It has been considered preferable in view of the film physical properties. On the other hand, unlike the above concept, the low-density polyethylene used in the present invention has a non-uniform composition distribution and preferably has a maximum melting point as high as possible within the range permitted by polyethylene. Compared with the film using linear polyethylene based on the conventional concept, the film of the present invention has a higher stiffness (higher rigidity), superior transparency and gloss, a large impact strength, and a processed tear strength. Direction, the direction perpendicular to the direction, the temperature at which the heat sealing property is developed is low, the temperature at which the hot tack property is developed is low, and the temperature range is wide. Is better. Hereinafter, each item will be described.

[0018]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

(1) Density and Melt Flow Rate The density of the polyethylene according to the present invention is measured after annealing at 100 ° C. for 1 hour according to JIS K6760, and is from 0.900 to 0.93.
0 g / cm ³ , preferably 0.905 to 0.925 g / cm ³ .
The film of the present invention has a high stiffness (high elastic modulus) in proportion to the density of the polyethylene used, but if the density is lower than this, the stiffness of the film becomes weak, and wrinkles are easily generated in the laminating step. Is not preferred. On the other hand, if the density is higher than this, the temperature at which the heat sealing property and the hot tack property are developed becomes too high, and it is difficult to achieve high speed packaging and filling. The melt flow rate (MFR) of the polyethylene according to the present invention is measured according to JIS K6760,
It is in the range of 0.1 to 100 g / 10 minutes. Suitable MFR
Depends on the choice of the film production method, and is preferably 0.1 to 10 g / 10 minutes by the inflation method, more preferably
0.2 to 5 g / 10 minutes, 0.5 to 50 g / 10 by T-die method
Min, more preferably 1 to 10 g / 10 min, and in the extrusion lamination method, it is 1 to 100 g / 10 min, more preferably 2 to 50 g / 10 min. In general, the lower the MFR,
Although the strength of the film increases, the extrusion load during film processing increases, and the higher the MFR, the lower the strength of the film,
It is easy to process a thin film at high speed.

(2) α-olefin The α-olefin to be copolymerized with ethylene in the present invention has 3 to 10 carbon atoms and has the general formula R—CH ＝ CH ₂ (where R is 1 to 8 carbon atoms).
Specific examples of which include propylene, butene-1, pentene-1, hexene-1, heptene-1, octene-1, and nonene-
1, decene-1, 4-methylpentene-1, 4-methylhexene-1, 4,4-dimethylpentene-1 and the like. Among these α-olefins, the propylene-based ones have relatively little improvement effect of the present invention, and α-olefins having 4 or more carbon atoms are preferable, and in particular, butene-1, pentene-1,
Hexene-1, octene-1, 4-methylpentene-1
And the like are preferable from the viewpoint of monomer availability, copolymerizability and the quality of the obtained copolymer. These α-olefins can be used in combination of two or more.

(3) Thermal transition behavior The most important requirement in the present invention is the thermal transition behavior described in detail below. It is now customary to measure the thermal transition behavior of polymers by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC),
The relationship between the heat generation or heat absorption rate and the temperature is called a thermogram. This thermogram reflects the lamella thickness distribution of the polymer, and it is known that the lamella thickness distribution is affected by the composition distribution and thermal history of the polymer (eg, S. Hosoda: Polymer J., 20, 383 (198
8)). The measurement of the thermal transition behavior in the present invention is divided into a case where it is desired to obtain knowledge about the composition distribution inherent in the polymer and a case where it is desired to obtain knowledge about the lamellar thickness distribution of the formed film. Hereinafter, the method will be described. When it is desired to obtain information on the composition distribution inherent in the polymer In this case, after complete melting, the polymer is gradually cooled, and then a temperature rise thermogram is measured. Since the thermal transition behavior of a polymer depends on its thermal history, it must be measured by eliminating it in advance. Further, as shown in the examples and the drawings, if the cooling rate is not sufficiently low, the peak may be apparently split in the subsequent heating process. This is considered to be because the lamellar crystals that could not grow sufficiently under rapid cooling melt and recrystallize during the heating process. Therefore, in the present invention, after holding (pre-melt) in DSC at 150 ° C. for 5 minutes,
Cool to 40 ° C. at a rate of temperature drop of 40 ° C./min to obtain a thermogram after cooling, and then heat up to 150 ° C. at a rate of temperature rise of 10 ° C./min to obtain a temperature rise thermogram. On each thermogram, a straight line is connected between the temperature at which the first heat generation starts and 50 ° C., or between 50 ° C. and the temperature at which all endotherms are completed, and is used as a baseline for obtaining the calorific value. In the present invention, the “peak” clearly indicates a maximum on the endothermic side, and is simply a shoulder (shoulder) shape identified by an inflection point, or 1/1 of the maximum peak intensity in the thermogram.
Anything that looks like a peak with a small change of less than 10 is not considered a “peak”. This is because, as described below, the present invention does not make a minute change in the thermogram a problem. The endothermic peak in the present invention is its half width (Wa1 / 2)
Is preferably 30 ° C. or lower, more preferably 27 ° C. or lower, particularly preferably 25 ° C. or lower. Wa1 / 2 is the temperature difference between two points where the line drawn parallel to the baseline from the midpoint of the perpendicular drawn from the peak to the baseline intersects the melting thermogram. Here, when the line intersects the boundary line with the adjacent peak before intersecting with the thermogram, the temperature difference between this temperature and the other intersection is taken. If Wa1 / 2 exceeds 30 ° C., the heat seal strength on the low temperature side and the peel distance during hot tack become large, which is not preferable.

When it is desired to obtain information on the lamellar thickness distribution of the formed film: In the low-density polyethylene film of the present invention, a temperature rise thermogram is measured directly from the film state. The crystal melting behavior of a molded article is determined by the composition distribution of the polymer itself and various thermal histories during and after processing. Therefore, when it is desired to know the thermal melting behavior of the film itself, it is necessary to directly measure the film without subjecting the film to thermal treatment before measurement. For this reason, in the present invention, the film is placed in a DSC
Heat at a heating rate of 0 ° C./min to obtain a heating thermogram. For this thermogram, a melting peak temperature, a melting peak calorific value, and a half width of a peak are calculated in the same manner as described above. However, in this case, since it is necessary to give importance to the lamella thickness distribution due to the heat history received so far, a peak is recognized if there is a change of 5% or more of the maximum peak intensity. Films made using conventional L-LDPE by the processing method described below exhibit essentially a single broad endothermic peak in their heating thermogram. On the other hand, the film of the present invention is characterized by exhibiting a plurality of distinct endothermic peaks in the heating thermogram as described below. In the heating thermogram of the low-density polyethylene film used in the present invention,
First, in the range of 75 to 100 ° C, preferably 80 to 95
It is necessary that the endothermic peak (a) is observed within the range of ° C. A plurality of endothermic peaks (a) may be observed within the above temperature range. When the peak temperature of the endothermic peak (a) is higher than this range, heat sealing properties and hot tack properties are not exhibited from a sufficiently low temperature.

In the heating thermogram of the polyethylene film used in the present invention, it is necessary that an endothermic peak (b) be observed at 120 ° C. or higher. The presence of the endothermic peak (a) alone does not make the temperature at which hot tack and heat seal properties are developed sufficiently low, and the temperature range at which hot tack is developed is so narrow that it is practically impractical. When the endothermic amount ΔHb of the endothermic peak (b) is the ratio of the endothermic peak (a) to the endothermic amount ΔHa, that is, ΔHb / ΔHa is 0.03 or more, preferably 0.05 or more, and more preferably 0.10 or more, the heat sealing property or hot tack property Is developed from a sufficiently low temperature. On the other hand, if ΔHb / ΔHa is greater than 2.0,
The temperature at which the hot tack property and the heat sealing property are developed is undesirably high. Therefore, ΔHb / ΔHa is 2.0 or less, preferably 1.5 or less, and more preferably 1.0 or less. When the temperature of the endothermic peak (b) is lower than 120 ° C., the temperature range in which the hot tack property is exhibited becomes narrow. Endothermic peak (b) is 1
It is preferably present at a temperature of 22 ° C. or higher. However, since the melting point of polyethylene does not exceed 140 ° C., the peak temperature of the endothermic peak (b) is lower than this. A plurality of endothermic peaks (b) may be observed within the above temperature range.

The present invention does not prevent the endothermic peaks other than the above-mentioned endothermic peaks (a) and (b) from being present in the temperature rising thermogram of the polyethylene film of the present invention. In order to exert the effect, the ratio of the sum of ΔHa and ΔHb to the total heat absorption ΔHt, that is, (ΔHa
+ ΔHb) / ΔHt is 0.6 or more, further 0.7 or more, especially 0.75
It is preferable that it is above. The endothermic peak (a) of the polyethylene film of the present invention has a half width (Wa1 / 2) of 27 ° C. or lower, preferably 25 ° C. or lower, particularly preferably 23 ° C. or lower. Wa1 / 2
Is the temperature difference between the two points where the line drawn parallel to the baseline from the midpoint of the perpendicular drawn from peak (a) to the baseline intersects the melting thermogram. Here, when the line intersects the boundary line with the adjacent peak before intersecting with the thermogram, the temperature difference between this temperature and the other intersection is taken.
If Wa1 / 2 exceeds 27 ° C., the heat seal strength on the low temperature side and the peel distance during hot tack become large, which is not preferable.

(4) Polyethylene mixture The polyethylene mixture of the present invention has a density of 0.895 to 0.9.
15 g / cm ^3, and preferably be from 0.900 0.910g / cm ^3,
A copolymer of ethylene having an α-olefin content of 2.0 to 10.0 mol% and an α-olefin having 3 to 10 carbon atoms, which has a DSC heating thermogram of 80 to 100 ° C., preferably 85 to 95 ° C. An endothermic peak is observed within the range,
99 to 60 parts by weight of a random copolymer (I) of ethylene having 3 to 10 carbon atoms and an α-olefin having an endotherm of 0.8 or more with respect to the total endotherm, and a density of 0.945 or more. Above 125 ° C in the DSC heating thermogram,
Preferably, it can be obtained by mixing with 1 to 40 parts by weight of high density polyethylene (II) having an endothermic peak observed at 130 ° C. or higher. Here, the total amount of the random copolymer (I) and the high-density polyethylene (II) is 100 parts by weight.

The random copolymer (I) was prepared by the present applicant in Showa 6

When an olefin is used, it is preferable to use a vanadium compound described in JP-A-60-226514.

The high-density polyethylene (II) is a homopolymer of ethylene and / or a copolymer of ethylene and an α-olefin having 3 to 10 carbon atoms, among which are commercially available as high-density polyethylene. You can choose from. Random copolymer (I) and high density polyethylene
The MFR of (II) can be arbitrarily selected within the range of 0.01 to 1000 g / 10 min, as long as the MFR of the mixture is 0.1 to 100 g / 10 min. At this time, it can be assumed that the logarithm of MFR is almost additive. The mixing ratio (parts by weight) of the random copolymer (I) and the high-density polyethylene (II) is preferably from 98 to 70/2 to 30, more preferably
97-80 / 3-20. A uniform mixture can be obtained by kneading the random copolymer (I) and the high-density polyethylene (II) at a temperature at which both components are melted. As the kneader, any of a batch type or a continuous type, a single-screw or multi-screw screw type can be used, but an extruder in a film production machine can also be used.

(5) Production of Film The low-density polyethylene film of the present invention comprises the above (3) and (4)
Can be produced at a temperature at which the raw material resin is melted by a known technique such as an inflation method or a T-die method. The inflation method is also called blow molding method, in which resin melt-kneaded by an extruder is extruded into a tube through a circular slit of a die, and the pressure of gas (usually air) blown into the tube is adjusted. By doing so, films with a wide range of widths can be produced. The ratio of the width of the film to the diameter of the circular slit is called the blow-up ratio (BUR). The thickness of the film can be adjusted by selecting the resin extrusion speed and BUR. The extruded tube is cooled by gas (usually air) and / or liquid (usually water) from the outside. The method of cooling with water is called a water-cooled inflation method and is used to obtain a film having excellent transparency, but it is troublesome to change the width of the film. In addition, a method of performing cooling by air is called an air cooling inflation method, and various cooling devices and methods have been proposed, but when roughly classified, there are a method of performing air cooling in one stage and a method of performing air cooling in multiple stages. Conventionally, L-LDPE single-stage air-cooled inflation film has insufficient transparency, and a multi-stage air-cooling system has been proposed to improve this. However, with the multi-stage air-cooling system, it is not easy to change the film width, and water-cooled inflation is not possible. As with the process, the characteristics of the inflation process that many kinds of films can be produced economically with one machine are lost. In the present invention, a film having extremely excellent transparency can be obtained even by the one-stage air-cooled inflation method. In the present invention, it is a matter of course that a film having excellent transparency can be obtained by a water-cooled inflation method or a multi-stage air-cooled inflation method. The resin temperature during processing is usually selected from the range of the complete melting temperature to 250 ° C.

The T-die method is also called a casting method, in which a resin melt-kneaded by an extruder is extruded through parallel slits of the die and cooled by being brought into contact with a roll through which a coolant such as water passes. Generally, a film having good transparency and good thickness accuracy can be manufactured. The thickness of the film can be adjusted by selecting the resin extrusion speed and the film take-up speed. The resin temperature during processing is usually selected from the range of the complete melting temperature to 350 ° C. The thickness of the monolayer film comprising the polyethylene mixture of the present invention is preferably 5 to 500 μm, particularly preferably 10 to 100 μm. If the thickness is smaller than this range, processing is difficult and handling is difficult when lamination is performed. If the thickness is too large, processing is difficult and heat sealing properties are hardly exhibited.

(6) Composite Film The film of the present invention must be in the form of a composite film with another substrate in order to sufficiently exhibit its excellent heat sealing properties. It is desirable that the surface be present as a surface layer on one side.

Uniform mixture of Examples 1 to 3, Comparative Example 4
Table 1 shows the endothermic peak temperatures in the thermograms obtained when the rate of the temperature lowering process was set to 1 ° C./min and 10 ° C./min. It is shown in FIG. FIGS. 1 to 4 show temperature rising thermograms of Example 2 and Comparative Example 4 with different temperature lowering conditions. In the figure, the horizontal axis represents temperature, and the vertical axis represents peak height (endotherm).

It is considered that this fission occurred due to the melting and recrystallization of the lamellar crystals that could not grow sufficiently under rapid cooling during the heating process. Note that a straight line substantially parallel to the temperature axis (horizontal axis) in FIGS. 1 and 2 indicates a baseline, and a vertical straight line indicates a temperature at which a thermogram shows a minimum value between endothermic peaks. The endothermic amount of each peak is calculated at the boundary. Also obtained from the films of Example 2 and Comparative Example 4.

Further, in Table 8, it can be seen that Comparative Example 5 has a longer minimum peeling distance of hot tack and lower strength than Examples 4 and 5 having the same density. Also, comparing the same density in Tables 3 and 4, the examples are much more excellent in transparency (haze), gloss (gross) and impact strength than conventional L-LDPE films, Elastic modulus) is also strong.
