Extrusion instructions
NA 940 has been designed for excellent processability, bubble stability and good heat sealing over a wide range of extrusion conditions. Optimum properties are found at melt temperatures of 330°-430°F (165°-221°C) and blow-up ratios between 1.8:1 and 2.5:1. Drawdown to 1.5 mil (38.1 microns) is possible at commercial rates when proper extrusion techniques are used.
