The aim of this work is to correlate the rheological properties and processability of various polyethylenes during the film-blowing process. The effect of rheology on the kinematics and dynamics of film blowing for five different polyethylene resins has been extensively studied using a fully instrumented laboratory unit. The complex viscosity, shear viscosity, uniaxial elongational viscosity, and non-uniform biaxial elongational viscosity, as well as the strain rates and stresses during film blowing, have been determined and correlated to the bubble stability. G' versus G(n) plots were found to be virtually independent of temperature for a polymers investigated. The more elastic polymers (larger G' values) Were found to be more stable in film blowing. Also, the more stable polymer melts were found to be those possessing larger elongational properties.
