Abstract

Abstract A method of making a non-slip plastic film comprises extruding separate plasticized plastic materials in two streams so that one stream abuts against and adheres to the other to form a combined plastic layer. The combined plastic layer is then stretched by directing air centrally into a tubular formation of this layer. One of the plastic materials comprises a material having an expanding agent or a foaming agent and the stretching causes the breaking of the voids of the foam plastic to form a rough, irregular net-like formation on the exterior of the other plastic. The apparatus includes two separate nozzles arranged to extrude plastic material so as to intersect and form a combined plastic.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 77 words
A method of making a plastic film having a rougher non-slip surface comprising the steps of simultaneously extruding at least two separate plasticized plastic materials so that two streams abut against one another and adhere to one another to form a film having laminated layers defined by the material of said stream and stretching one of said layers relative to the other layer whereby said other layer breaks to define a rougher surface on said stretched layer.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 77 words
A method of making a plastic film having a rougher non-slip surface comprising the steps of simultaneously extruding at least two separate plasticized plastic materials so that two streams abut against one another and adhere to one another to form a film having laminated layers defined by the material of said stream and stretching one of said layers relative to the other layer whereby said other layer breaks to define a rougher surface on said stretched layer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 62 words
The method as defined in claim 1, including the step of applying a foaming agent to one of said plastic materials whereby said foaming plastic material is coated onto the other plastic material, and whereby said other plastic material is stretched causing the voids of said foamed plastic material to break and form rough, irregular net-like formations on said other plastic layer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
The method as defined in claim 1, wherein a stretching of said one layer is effected by applying a fluid pressure thereon.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method as defined in claim 3, wherein said laminated layers are extruded in tubular form, and said fluid pressure is applied within the tubular formed layers.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 15 words
The method as defined in claim 4, wherein said applied fluid pressure is air pressure.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 29 words
The method as defined in claim 1, wherein said streams are formed of the same plasticized material, and adding an expanding agent to one of said streams of material.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 30 words
The method as defined in claim 1, and including the step of feeding a gas in one of said plastic materials which is insoluble therein to effect the foaming thereof.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 35 words
A method according to claim 2, wherein a plastic material having a foaming agent is extruded in an outer annular stream in respect ot the other layer which is extruded in an inner annular stream.
