Profiled extrusion replication |
摘要 |
A profiled extrusion replication process is disclosed that includes steps of (a) extruding a molten material through an extrusion die having at least one profiled die lip to form a molten extrudate having first and second major extrudate surfaces and having a first structural feature in the first major extrudate surface; (b) bringing the molten extrudate into contact with a tool surface comprising one or more second structural features so as to cause a portion of the first structural feature in the first major extrudate surface to contact the one or more second structural features on the tool surface; and (c) cooling the molten extrudate to provide the structured film. Structured films and apparatus for making structured films are also disclosed. |

1. A process for making a structured film, comprising steps of:
(a) extruding a molten material through an extrusion die having at least one profiled die lip to form a molten extrudate having first and second major extrudate surfaces and having a first structural feature in the first major extrudate surface; (b) bringing the molten extrudate into contact with a tool surface comprising one or more second structural features so as to cause a portion of the first structural feature in the first major extrudate surface to contact at least one of the second structural features on the tool surface; and (c) cooling the molten extrudate to provide the structured film; wherein a ratio of a cross-web cross-sectional area of the first structural feature to a cross-web cross-sectional area of a second structural feature is about 1.0. |
