Dear List,

What are the main characteristics of a chill roller and water quench tank for PP cast film extrusion process.

I would like to highlight the pros and cons of both cooling techniques.

Thanks, m@z 050328

The water quench (very cold water) will give you clearer film then a chill roller system would.
