ABSTRACT:
An improved process of producing a predetermined textured surface on a polypropylene film is disclosed including the steps of extruding the polypropylene into a stalk, cooling the stalk to crystallize the polypropylene, passing the stalk through a heating zone and biaxially stretching the stalk into a thin film. The stalk emanating from the extruder has a section primarily temperature controlled and correlated to the stalk velocity to cause extensive, continuous and uniform spherulite formation with a predominantly type III polypropylene crystal structure on the outer surface of the stalk, which upon subsequent inflation of the stalk causes the desired texture to occur.
