Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 89 words
A method of manufacture of a wrapping film suitable for use in spin wrapping applications comprising extruding a blend of polyethylene with between 0.5 and 10% by weight of a tackifying agent polyisobutylene to form a film and treating one surface of the film with a corona discharge to increase the adhesive characteristics thereof, the level of treatment of the film by corona discharge is not less than the level of treatment required to bring the wetting tension of plain polyethylene film to at least 34 dynes per centimeter.
