Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0041872A1] A process of manufacturing a heat-shrinkable polyethylene mono-layer film with a thickness variation of less than 20 %, preferably less than 18 % and even more preferably less than 15 %, which process comprises extrusion of the film resin through a flat die, quenching of the cast extruded sheet, irradiation thereof, re-heating to the suitably selected orientation temperture and stretching of the irradiated sheet. Preferably the polyethylene comprises an ethylene- alpha -olefin copolymer. The heat-shrinkable polyethylene mono-layer irradiated film with a thickness variation of less than 20 %, preferably less than 18 % and even more preferably less than 15 % is also claimed.
