Effect of fluoropolymer antidripping agent on rheological behavior of LLDPE

摘要

In this work, high molecular weight polytetrafluoroethylene based antidripping agent was blended with Ziegler-Natta based LLDPE in different concentrations. Rheological characterization was consequently performed for all the blends and the obtained results were compared with the pure LLDPE. It has been found that high molecular weight PTFE based melt modifier MM 5935 EF significantly enhancing the shear viscosity/elasticity and especially the extensional viscosity of the LLDPE melt. © 2011 American Institute of Physics.
