Process for low temperature heat sealing of polyethylene

摘要

A process of producing a heat sealed extrusion coated polyethylene article is disclosed. This process entails heat sealing, at a temperature below 95 DEG C. two opposing extrusion coated polyethylene laminate surfaces thereby welding the surfaces to effect a heat seal. The polyethylene has a narrow molecular weight distribution, a low melt index, a low swell ratio, and a polydispersity index below 5.
