POE film heat shrinkage too large
Problem Phenomenon
POE film heat shrinkage at 80°C >12%, exceeding the 5% dimensional stability requirement
Cause Analysis
POE extrusion orientation releases after heating, causing large shrinkage; POE thermal expansion coefficient is large; film cooling froze a large amount of orientation stress
Solution
1) Reduce extrusion draw ratio to reduce orientation freezing; 2) Film annealing at 60-80°C to release orientation stress; 3) Add 5-10wt% rigid resin to reduce heat shrinkage; 4) Biaxial stretching process to balance orientation
Key Takeaway
Film heat shrinkage is caused by orientation freezing; reducing draw ratio and annealing treatment are key
