Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the quality of articles and improve the yield by heat- treating a blown film obtained in a biaxial orientation under non-tension in use of rolls having a specific surface roughness and low frictional resistance. CONSTITUTION:A blown film obtained in a biaxial orientation is heat-treated under non-tension by the use of small rolls having a surface roughness of 1.0 - 2.5 mum in the measurement of Ra and low frictional resistance. In this instance, when a roll is employed as a heat treating roll 32 of 0.9 mum or less in a value of Ra and smooth configuration in its surface as shown in a figure (b), the frictional resistance between the surface of the roll 32 and film 30 is large and becomes a thickness pattern as shown in a figure (C), however, when a roll of 1.0 mum or more in a value of Ra is employed, the frictional resistance between the roll surface and the film is small and becomes a thickness pattern shown as a figure (c'), and in the case of a roll of 2.0 mum or less in a value of Ra as shown in a figure (b'), a film can be obtained which is fine in its surface. Furthermore, as a roll of 2.6 mum or more in a value of Ra is used, marks of protrusions on the roll surface are left on the film surface which contacts with the roll and scratches and the like are also recognized thereon.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a method for producing a film by an inflation method, and particularly to a method for producing a film by an inflation method made of a thermoplastic resin such as polyolefin. (Prior art) A stretched film manufactured by the inflation method has residual stress in both vertical and horizontal directions, so if left as is, the film may deform during storage or use.
There is a risk of curling. Therefore, when commercializing the film, it was necessary to heat-treat the film using a heat-set roll to relieve residual stress in advance. (Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, when trying to heat-treat the film 30 obtained by the inflation method with the roll 31 arranged as shown in FIG. When the residual stress is relieved, it contracts both vertically and horizontally. At this time, for example, the film feeding speed of the roll 31 is set to 100%, the speed of the NAL heat treatment roll 32 is set to 99 to 95% of the speed of the roll 3L, and the speed of the &2 heat treatment roll 33 is set to 97 to 92% of the speed of the roll 3L.
%, the amount of longitudinal heat shrinkage can be freely controlled within the range shown in Figure 4. If the film is completely free and under no tension, it should shrink uniformly in the transverse direction, but with this method using a heat treatment roll, the
As shown in b), since both ends of the film 30 are not fixed, if you try to shrink the film uniformly in the lateral direction, the amount of movement accompanying the shrinkage at each point in the width direction of the film will vary from the center of the film to both ends. It accumulates and becomes larger as you go. However, there is frictional resistance between the film 30 and the surfaces of the &1 and N[L2 heat treatment rolls 32 and 33, and this resistance increases with the amount of movement of the film to shrink in the lateral direction. .. For this reason, the edges that are not fixed easily shrink, but the center of the film is prevented from shrinking due to the resistance force generated as the edges move. The result is that, as shown in Figure (c), the difference in the amount of shrinkage in the width direction of the film, that is, between both ends and the center, appears as a difference in thickness. This means that there is a difference in residual stress between both ends and the center, and when this is slit into multiple rolls of a predetermined width, the difference in residual stress in each part is relaxed. As shown in Figure (d), the closer the slits are to the ends of the roll, the more the film curves outward, resulting in a significant loss of commercial value. An object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a film by an inflation method, which prevents the occurrence of these defects and improves the quality of the product.

(Means for Solving the Problems) A method for producing a blown film according to the present invention is to produce a blown film obtained by biaxial stretching, and to obtain a blown film having a surface roughness of 1.0 to 2.5 μm on the scale of Ra. The main idea is to use rolls with low frictional resistance to perform heat treatment without tension. To explain this, the present inventor noticed that when a film obtained by biaxial stretching is heat treated with a roll, if the surface of the roll and the film surface come into close contact, the resistance during movement and contraction of the film increases. As a result of investigating the relationship between the surface condition and frictional resistance using rolls with various surface conditions with different frictional resistances, we found that the best way to reduce frictional resistance is to minimize the contact area between the roll surface and the film. Also, when the film tries to move on the roll, the smaller the frictional resistance, the more uniform the film will shrink, but the Ra value is a measure of the roughness of the roll surface that determines the frictional resistance. It is best to define it as,
We came to this conclusion and completed the present invention. That is, in the present invention, the above-described film is processed by using a roll with a low frictional resistance and a surface roughness Ra value of 1.0 to 2.5p, under no tension, in other words, the film is brought into contact with the heat treatment roll. The film is characterized in that the heat treatment is performed under conditions in which the amount of lateral movement of the film cannot be controlled between the time it is heated and the time it is cooled by a cooling roll. To further explain this with drawings,
Nllll heat treatment roll 3 in FIG. 5(a) described above
If a roll 32 with a smooth surface as shown in the same figure (b) with an Ra value of 0.9 μ■ or less is used as
The frictional resistance between the surface of the film 30 and the film 30 is large, resulting in a thickness pattern as shown in FIG. The frictional resistance between the films is small, as shown in Figure 1 (.)
The thickness pattern was as shown in . The shape of the surface of the NQ2 heat-treated roll is similar, and the roll processed into the shape shown in FIG. value 2
.. When using a roll with a tolerance of 6 μm or more, traces of the protrusions on the roll surface remained on the surface of the film that came into contact with the roll, and scratches were also observed. From this, in order to achieve the purpose of the present invention, the Ra value is 1.
The conclusion was reached that it is necessary to fall within the range of 0 to 2.5p.

(Example) Hereinafter, specific aspects of the present invention will be explained while comparing and contrasting the example shown in FIG. 1 and the conventional example shown in FIG.
The present invention is not limited to this example. In Fig. 1, numerals 1 and 2 are heat-treated rolls whose surfaces have been processed to reduce frictional resistance, and numeral 3 is a flat film obtained from a tubular film by the inflation method. In order to heat-treat the film using this roll, it is important to create an environment where the film can move freely on the roll. With the roll used for the conventional heat treatment of the film by the inflation method shown in FIG. 5, the film rapidly shrunk on the NQ1 heat treatment roll 32 because it was difficult to move the film, but the heat treatment roll l according to the present invention, Since the film 3 used had its surface processed to Ra=1.3-, the film 3 gradually shrunk on the heat treatment rolls 1 and 2, and finally a uniformly shrunk film was obtained. The surface roughness of the rolls used in Figures 1 and 5 and the results of slitting the finished film into four 360m wide strips are shown below.
