Blown film extrusion is one of the most signifi cant polymer processing methods. Several billion pounds of polymer, mostly polyethylene, are processed annually by this technique. While some applications for blown fi lm are quite complex, such as scientifi c balloons, the majority of products manufactured on blown fi lm equipment are used in commodity applications with low profi t margins: grocery sacks, garbage bags, and fl exible packaging. Consequently sophisticated hardware, materials, and processing methods have been developed to yield fi lm at very high output rates with both low dimensional variation and consistent solid-state properties....
