Abstract
This invention is for LLDPE blends with an ethylene-norbornene copolymer for resins and improved toughness and processibility for film production. This invention provides LLDPE based resins which are significantly improved with respect to their capability to be fabricated into a film layer, particularly by a blown bubble extrusion technique. Films prepared of the LLDPE/E-NB melt blended resins of this invention are significantly improved with respect to certain of their film properties, such as tear strength, without detracting from the beneficial properties that a LLDPE otherwise provides to a film.
