Actual Inventor: Address for Service: Complete Specification for the invention eititled: FROSTED POLYMERIC ARTICLES AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING SAME The following statement is a full description of including the best method of performing it known this invention to me:i i_ 1- FROSTED POLYMERIC ARTICLES AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING SAME BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Polymeric articles because of their inherent properties are replacing glass in many end use applications, such as bottles, packaging, containers, window panes, light covers, shower doors, and the like. Some of these applications are enhanced by a 0 P 0 o0 «frosted» look either for nractical reasons such as 00.000 10 to block sight through the material or for aesthetic o»0 0 reasons. Glass is normally made frosted by etching 0o the surface of the glass to create a light scattering 0 0 0 o and thus the frosted look is achieved. Because many polymerics cannot withstand a mechanical etching 15 process such as sandblasting, other methods must be 0 9 0, used to achieve the frosted appearance. To create the frosted glass look in polymeric articles, those t °o skilled in the art will etch the mold by sandblasting d 9 or other means to give a rough surface on the mold.
The rough surface on the mold transfers to the 0 °o°0 moldable polymeric article, thus creating a frosted a 00ooo0 appearance.
The practice of altering the molds is an expensive process because the mold cannot be used again for non-frosted articles. Many molding machines for polymerics have multi-cavity molds and thus several cavities must be altered. Injection blow molding is a common process used to produce bottles. The molds for this process cost from about $100,000 to $200,000, thus making the increased inventory of molds uneconomical. Also, some polymeric materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), when injection blow molded into bottles, have a low j surface roughness to the PVC bottle. This explains -2the absence of frosted PVC bottles from the marketplace, even though they are desired by customers.
For the rare polymeric materials which can withstand a post molding treatment of etching, the o Oi0 post molding treatment is an added process which adds 0 0 0 Ooooo00o greatly to the cost of the article.
It would be desirable to have a process 0, 0 which could produce frosted polymeric articles which oao o did not involve etching the mold or an abrasive aftertreatment, and which could be molded in conventional smooth molds.
SOo SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION o0000 It is an object of the invention to provide o 0 frosted polymeric articles.
20 It is a further object of this invention to 0o oo It is an additional object of this invention 0. to provide compositions which are suitable for the 0 0 production of frosted polymeric articles.
These and other objects which will become evident from the following disclosure are accomplished by forming a polymeric article from a composition comprising a first polymeric component and a second polymeric component, wherein said first polymeric component and sai second polymeric component have different vicoelastic properties.
Preferably, the first polymeric component and the second polymeric component also have similar optical properties such as refractive index.
plymri articles.
3 In the most preferred embodiment of this invention, the first polymeric component is a PVC polymer and the second polymeric component is a crosslinked PVC.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Figure 1 is An optical microscope photograph showing an extruded strip according to this invention made with the composition of Example 1, run 4. The microfracture or roughness of the surface is visible a0 00 0 o 10 from the photograph. The scale of the photograph is o 00 1 inch 100 1im.
Figure 2 is an optical microscope photograph 0° 0 showing an extruded strip made with the composition 00 oo of Example 1, run 1 (control). This sample is the same as Fig. 1 with the exception that Fig. 1 composition contains 20 weight parts of crosslinked °00. PVC. The scale of the photograph is the same as in 0 00 *o0oO 0o Fig. i.
Fig DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 00O 20 The polymeric materials used to produce the articles of this invention include polymeric materials such as polyvinyl chloride and optically 00 0 oO transparent copolymners of polyvinyl chloride, polyester, polycarbonate, polystyrene, polymethyl methacrylate and the like. Any optically transparent polymer or polymer which can be rendered optically transparent by appropriate processing is useful in this invention. The term polymer includes oligomers, copolymers, terpolymers or higher order polymers of materials normally referred to as thermoplastic or elastomeric and blends thereof. The invention will be described in terms of a polyvinyl chloride article.
The frosted articles of this invention include articles such as bottles, packaging sheet, containers, window panes, light covers, shower doors, 4 -4door panels, imitation glass block and the like. The invention will be described in terms of a frosted bottle but other articles could be made using this invention. The articles may be rigid or flexible depending upon the desired end use application.
The articles of this invention are optically transparent in the interior of the article but demonstrate limited light transmission due to a surface microfracture or roughness resulting from .00 10 different viscoelastic properties of the article’s P° polymeric components. This contrasts with a .o.o consistent haziness throughout an article produced oo with two polymeric materials, which when blended 00 together, have different refractive indices.
o15 The polymeric compositions used to produce the articles of this invention are optically oo transparent compositions. That is, the compositions 00oo are substantially free of pigments which block the 0 00 transmission of light. The composition needs to be o»Co 20 optically transparent in order to give an aesthetically appealing frosted look. With an optically transparent composition the frosted article has a sparkle appearance much like frosted glass.
oo The compositions may, however, contain a tinting 000 00 25 pigment, to give a color effect to the article while still allowing the article to transmit light.
The compositions may be rigid, semi-rigid or flexible. Rigid compositions are those which contain less than about 10 parts by weight of plasticizer per 100 parts by weight of polymer, other than the stabilizers, lubricants and processing aids.
Likewise, semi-rigid compositions contain from about to about 40 parts plasticizer, while flexible compositions contain greater than about 40 parts by weight plasticizer per 100 parts by weight polymer.
I II II- I 1-L -~Zi 5 The term plasticizer includes materials such as oil extenders and other materials which soften the product.
The compositions of this invention must contain at least two polymeric components, that is a first polymer component and a second polymer component. The first and second polymer components must have different viscoelastic properties.
Preferably, the first polymer component and the 10 second polymer component also have similar optical Saoo properties, such as refractive index. The term 00000 similar optical properties also means that when the 0 a o first and second polymers are mixed together, the 6 0 0o 0 interior of the article produced has good light a 0 0 o 15 transmission, preferably greater than about 60% to light transmission. It should be recognized that S some polymers can have different refractive indices S 0 in their initial state, but when worked together in a «o mixing operation will have similar refractive «o 20 indices. This can occur because of crystallinity of one of the polymers. For the interior of the article to be optically transparent, the polymers in the t final mixed or combined state should have similar 4 o o refractive indices, or be so miscible that they will ooooo 0 0 0 0 25 have domain sizes small enough to provide good light transmission.
One method to achieve different viscoelastic properties is to crosslink a polymer, thus making the polymer more rubber-like. Therefore, the first polymer component could be polyvinyl chloride while the second polymer component could be crosslinked polyvinyl chloride. When polyvinyl chloride is crosslinked, its optical properties remain essentially unchanged, as can be calculated by those skilled in the art, but its viscoelastic properties _I 6 are substantially changed. The viscoelastic properties at a given temperature can also be changed in polyvinyl chloride by increasing the molecular weight Molecular weight is commonly expressed as inherent viscosity Inherent viscosity is measured according to ASTM Procedure D-1243. PVC polymers having an IV greater than 1.02, preferably greater than 1.4, are materials where the high molecular weight, and thus high crystallinity, 10 exhibit behavior similar to crosslinked PVC at d0o temperatures below which the crystals melt. The higher IV material tends to be more crystalline and o the crystals act like crosslinks as long as they are o maintained below their melting point.
00 15 The first and second polymer components may both be present as one resin. For example, a 0 «0 core/shell overpolymer could be formed by making a 0 0 o0 crosslinked PVC core and then overpolymerizing with 0 vinyl chloride to form a crosslinked PVC core with a 0 o 20 non-crosslinked PVC shell. In this instance, both 0 the first and second polymer would be present in the same resin particle. Crosslinked PVC resin particles o 00 often contain both crosslinked PVC and uncrosslinked a 0 ooooo PVC. Depending on the selection of the crosslinking agent, the crosslinking agent can be completely reacted with vinyl chloride during the early part of the polymerization, in which case the following part of the polymerization would be producing homopolymer PVC that is not crosslinked.

9 When rubbery polymers with different optical properties than polyvinyl chloride are added to polyvinyl chloride compositions, the molded article becomes excessively hazy, which is undesirable. This is the case when many conventional impact modifiers such as acrylonitrile-butadi’ene-styrene and acrylate rubbers are added to polyvinyl chloride. Amounts of rubbery impact modifiers which result in haze should be held to a minimum or not used at all so as to 10 achieve a high degree of optical transparency.
I Certain specialty impact modifiers are available which give optically transparent compositions with ao 0 PVC but these compositions do not exhibit a surface a 0° frosting effect.
0 I 0 15 The invention will be further described with the preferred embodiment of a rigid optically transparent frosted polyvinyl chloride (PVC) article made with a mixture of PVC polymer and crosslinked PVC polymer.
o 20 PVC polymers as used in this invention means polyvinyl chloride homopolymers as well as vinyl chloride polymerized with up to 50%, preferably up to 0on e 20%, by weight of one or more other monomer which will give an optically transparent copolymer with 4 25 vinyl chloride. Suitable comonomers that may be used to give an optically transparent copolymer includes esters of acrylic acid, for example, methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, octyl acrylate, cyanoethyl acrylate, and the like; vinyl acetate; esters of methacrylic acid, such as methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, and the like; styrene and styrene derivatives including a-methyl styrene, vinyl toluene, chlorostyrene; vinyl naphthalene; diolefins including butadiene, isoprene, chloroprene, and the like; and .i 10 mixtures of any of these types of monomers and other olefinic monomers copolymerizable therewith; and j other monomers known to those skilled in the art which will give optically transparent copolymers with vinyl chloride. The amount of comonomer that can be polymerized with vinyl chloride to give an optically transparent copolymner is a function of the choice of comonomer, as is well understood by those skilled in the art. Some of the comonomers listed herein will give undesirable hazy copolymers if the comonorner is used at levels greater than about Preferably, the polyvinyl chloride polymer of this invention is a polyvinyl chloride homopolymer.
The PVC polymer of this invention may be produced by any of the known polymerization processes such as mass, suspension, solution or emulsion. Mass
U.
0 0 and suspension are the preferred processes to produce 000the PVC polymer, The process to be described is a 0 00 suspension process. when using the suspension 0 20 process, suitable dispersing agents or suspending agents, s.,,ch as known in the art, may be used.
Examples of suitable dispersants are partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol, cellulose ethers, starch, gelatin, and the like. The level of dispe aant used will be less than about 2.0 parts by weight, preferably less than about 0.5 part by weight per 100 parts by Weight of monomer. Excellent, results are obtained with from 0.05 to 0,3 part by weight of dispersant per 100 parts by weight of monomer.
The polymerization is initiated with a free radical catalyst. The monomer-soluble or oil-soluble catalysts that may be used in the polymerization process to produce the polyvinyl chloride polymer used in this invention are the alkanoyl, aroyl, alkaroyl, and aralkanoyl diperoxides and monohydroperoxides, azo compounds, peroxy ester, percarbonates, and other free radical type catalysts. As examples of such catalysts, there may named benzoyl per-oxide, lauryl peroxide, diacetyl peroxide, cumene hydroperoxidrks, methyl ethyl ketone peroxide, diisopropylbenzene ‘nydroperoxide, it 2,4-dichlorobenzoyl peroxide, naphthoyl peroxide, t-butyl perbenzoateo di-t-butyl perphthalate, isopropyl percarbonate, acetyl cycloiiexcane sulfonyl peroxide, disecondary butyl peroxydicarbonate, (>Ova5-butyl peroxyneodecanoatee di-normal propyl 0 a 00 0 peroxydicarbonate, azo-bisisobutyronitrile, 0 0 -15 valeronitrile), and many others. The particular free radical catalyst employed will depend upon the 01 0 monomeric material(s) being polymerized, the 0 0 molecular weight and color requirements of the polymer, the temperature of polymerization, etc.
#~o20 Xnsofat as the amount of catalyst employed~ is 00 0 concerned, it has been f~ound that an amount in the range of about 0.005 parts by weight to about i,00o 4 parts by weight. based on 100 parts by weight of the monomer or monomers being polymerizedi is satisfactory. However, it is preferred to employ an amount of catalyst in the range of about 0.01 part by weight to about 0.20 part by weight based on 100 parts by weight of monomer(s).
The preferred suspension polymerization process to produce the PVC polymers of this invention may be carried out at any temperature which is normal for the monomeric material to be polymerized.
Preferably, a temperature in the range of about 0 0
C
to about 100WC is employed* more preferably from about 401C to about 85 0 C. ]n order to facilitate 12 temperature control during the polymerization process, the reaction medium is kept in contact with cooling surfaces cooled by water, brine, evaporation, etc. This is accomplished by employing a jacketed polymerization reactor wherein the cooling materials are circulated through the jacket throughout the polymerization reaction. This cooling is necessary since most all of the polymerization reactions are exothermic in nature. It is understood, of course, 10 that a heating medium can be circulated through the o» jacket, if necessary.
ooat The second polymer that is used in the o.o a preferred embodiment of this invention is a 0 0 o crosslinked PVC polymer. The term PVC polymer as o s 15 used to describe the crosslinked PVC polymer has the same meaning as the above description of PVC polymer for the first polymer which includes copolymers with o vinyl chloride as described above. Preferably, the a second polymer is a crosslinked PVC homopolymer. The 20 term polyvinyl chloride homopolymer as used to describe the second polymer in this specification includes the polymerized vinyl chloride as well as 0 the small amount of crosslinking agents.
crosslinking agent polymer 15 15 The monomer reactivity ratio of vinyl monomer (R 1 can be expressed as K 1 1 R1
K
2 2 The monomer reactivity ratio of the crosslinking agent (R 2 can be expressed as R2 R K 22 K21 aoo°0″ Ideally the product of R 1 and R 2 would be equal .ooooo to 1 (R 1 X R 2 1).
0 0 1 2 «o 0 The crosslinking agents preferably should be 00o 10 completely reacted before the normal termination of 0 the polymerization, so as not to have crosslinking monomer present as residual monomer in the vinyl «04 polymer. Vinyl chloride polymerizations are normally ,,,run to a conversion of monomer to polymer of from about 50% to 90%, preferably from about 65% to about 80%. The conversions can of course be higher or lower depending on the desired properties of the resin.
The crosslinking agents which are suitable ,to 20 to produce the crosslinked PVC usd in this invention include, for example, diallyl phthalates such as diallyl phthalate, diallyl isophthalate, diallyl terephthalate, etc.; other esters such as diallyl maleate, diallyl fumarate, diallyl itaconate, diallyl adipate, diallyl azelate, diallyl sebacate, triallylcyanurate, triallyl isocyanurate, triallyl trimellitate, etc.; vinyl ethers such as diallyl ether, ethylene glycol divinyl ether, n-butanediol divinyl ether, octadecane divinyl ether, etc; esters such as di(meth)acryl esters of polyhydric alcohols such as ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, diethylene 16 glycol dimethacrylate, diethylene glycol diacrylate, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate, etc.; tri(meth)acryl esters of polyhydric alcohols such as t-imethylolpropane trimethacrylate, trimethylolethane trimethacrylate, trimethylolpropane triacrylate, trimethylolmethane triacrylate, tetramethylolmethane triacrylate, etc; polyfunctional compounds such as bismethacryloyloxyethylene phthalate, 1,3,5-triacryloylhexahydrotriazine, etc. A mixture oaRooo 10 of more than one crosslinking agent may be used.
O O Diallyl phthalate is the most preferred crosslinker o for making the crosslinked PVC polymer used in this 0 0 invention.
o «o The crosslinking agent may be added to the oo o o o1 15 polymerization medium in any manner known to those skilled in the art; such as premixing with the vinyl ao s monomer before charging, charging directly into the 0 0 polymerization medium or metering into the reaction 6o during the polymerization. The preferred method is ooex 20 to first premix the crosslinking agent with the vinyl o a monomer before charging to the reaction vessel. If a mass polymerization is used to produce the 0XO° crosslinked PVC polymer, then the crosslinking agent o could be added at any location in the process such as 25 the prepolymerizer or the autoclave, preferably the crosslinking agent should be added in the prepolymerizer.
The amount of crosslinking agent used to make the crosslinked PVC polymer used in this invention is from about 0.05 part by weight to about parts by weight, preferably about 0.15 part to about 1.0 part by weight, more preferably about 0.25 part to about 0.6 part by weight per 100 parts by weight of vinyl monomer. The amount used varies with the degree of crosslinking desired.
17 If one elects to use polymers other than PVC to produce frosted clear articles, then the selection of crosslinking agent would depend upon the relative reactivity rates of the monomer being polymerized and the crosslinking agent. The reactivity ratios of various monomers are published in reference books, and well known to those skilled in the art.
A critical feature of the present invention is that the first PVC polymer and the second PVC «c 10 polymer have dissimilar viscoelastic properties.
‘Preferably, the first and second PVC polymers also S have similar refractive indices.
oo o The method used for determining viscoelastic go 0 properties of the polymers used in this invention So 15 involves subjecting a disk-shape sample to very small deformation (less than 1% strain) in a cyclic fashion 0 using a Rheometrics Mechanical Spectrometer equipped S, with oscillating parallel plates. Durinq deformation of the sample, a certain amount of energy is lost due to molecular segmental motions. The remaining energy is stored by elastic mechanisms. These two types of behavior are simultaneously measured during testing and are reflected in the magnitudes of the loss modulus and storage or elastic modulus Also measured is the complex viscosity which is analogous to the steady state shear viscosity as might be measured by a capillary rheometer.
Complex viscosity is an indication of molecular weight. Intrinsic viscosity (IV) is normally the method of expressing molecular weight of a PVC resin. However, with crosslinked resins the resin is not completely soluble, thus the IV cannot be accurately determined. Therefore molecular weight of the resins of this invention are expressed as complex viscosity, with the units being poise. The 18 complex viscosity is measured at 210 0 C. The crosslinked PVC polymers suitable for use as the second polymer component of this invention have a complex viscosity of from about 0.9 X 105 poise to abotut 100.0 X 105, preferably about 4.0 X 105 to about 60.0 X 105. In terms of behavior, a complex viscosity of 0.9 X 105 poise corresponds to an IV of about 0.8, and a complex viscosity of 60.0 X 105 poise corresponds to an IV of about Another important viscoelastic property of the resins of this invention is the tan 6, which is the ratio of the loss modulus to the energy o storage modulus The tan 6 can be expressed by the formula: 15
G»
o 0 Tan 6= oo G’ Tan is an indication of the amount of long chain branching (crosslinking) present in the resin, A PVC homopolymer with no crosslinking would have a tan of about 1.0. As crosslinking occurs, the tan a gets smaller, The tan 6 of the crosslinked PVC polymers of this invention are less than 1.0, preferably from about 0.1 to about 0.5, more preferably from about 0.2 to about 0.4. The tan is measured at 210 0
C.
00 The preferred compositions of this invention contain both the non-crosslinked PVC polymer and the crosslinked PVC polymer. The compositions contain a total of 100 parts by weight of PVC polymer, crosslinked and non-crosslinked. For rigid end use applications, such as bottles, the non-crosslinked PVC polymer is preferably present at a level of from about 60 to about 97 parts by weight and the crosslinked PVC polymer is present at from about 3 to about 40 parts by weight. More preferably, the ratio 19 of non-crosslinked to crosslinked PVC is about 80:20 to about 90:10. The degree of crosslinking (tan 6) will somewhat affect the amount of crosslinked PVC needed to create a frosted appearance. When a PVC with a higher degree of crosslinking is used, then less of an amount is needed to give the frosted article. Likewise, if a very lightly crosslinked PVC polymer is used, then a larger amount would be required to give the frosted article. When the compositions are softer, such as when they are semi-rigid or flexible, then the amount of crosslinked PVC used can be greater. For example, oc with flexible PVC compositions, frosting occurs even oo with 100% of the PVC being crosslinked PVC. Flexible oooe 15 compositions can contain from about 3 parts to about oO0 0 100 parts, preferably from about 30 to about 75 parts o of crosslinked PVC per 100 total parts PVC.
The compositions will normally contain other ingredients such as stabilizers, lubricants, 0 20 processing aids, plasticizers and impact modifiers, O all of which are to enhance the processing and performance of the composition in its end use application. Small amounts of tinting pigments may be used to give a coloring to the compositions.
Pigments which block the passage of light, such as o titanium dioxide, should be avoided to achieve an o, ,optically transparent article.
The compositions are optically transparent and frosted. A frosted optically transparent appearance creates a light scattering such that an article molded from the untinted compositions will have a high measured haze value. Preferably, the haze value is greater than about 15%, more preferably greater than about 50%. Haze is expressed as a percentage and is measured according to ASTM D-1003-61 on a 0.065 inch thick sample. The compositions and articles show a high haze value but this is due only to a surface effect caused by the frosting. The interior of the article has low haze.
The compositions and frosted articles molded with the compositions are optically transparent, that is, they allow light to-pass through. The articles have a high degree of clarity, if the frosting effect on the surface is removed. The interior of the article is very clear. The frosting effect of the surface can be masked by placing on the surface oil with a refractive index the same as the PVC and covering the oil with a glass slide. The masked surface has a high degree of light transmission and a low haze, thus indicating that the frosting is a surface effect. The compositions can also be compression molded under high pressure and cooled o’ c under pressure and the result is no frosting will occur. This is believed to be because the crosslinked PVC is prevented from shrinking by the rigid matrix to create the surface frosting. When the untinted compositions are made to exhibit no frosting, they have a light transmission greater than about 60%, preferably greater than about Light transmission is, measured according to ASTM Procedure D-1746.
The invention was described above in terms of a crosslinked PVC with a non-crosslinked PVC. One could use a lightly crosslinked PVC with a heavy crosslinked PVC. For example, a lightly crosslinked PVC with a tan greater than about 0.7, preferably greater than 0.9, could be used with a heavily crosslinked PVC with a tan 6 less than about preferably less than about 0.4. The important feature being that they possess different 21 viscoelastic properties. One could also use a very high molecular weight PVC with an IV greater than about 1.4 in place ot the crosslinked PVC with a low molecular weight polyvinyl chloride having an IV less than about 0.8 since the high crystallinity of the high molecular weight PVC would act like crosslinks until the crystals melt. A crosslinked PVC offers much more practical advantage over high IV PVC because the processing temperature range is not as critical as with high molecular weight (high IV) PVC.
The ingredients of the composition of this invention may be mixed by any of the known compounding methods for compounding PVC such as Henschel, mill rolls, Banbury, mixing extruder, and the like. The amount of work applied on the polymers during mixing can effect the amount of frosting achieved. For example, a mixtue of PVC and crosslinked PVC which would normally give frosting could be excessively worked during mixing to a point where the two polymers become completely miscible and homogenous therefore eliminating the mixture’s ability to create frosting. Normal work applied during mixing will not destroy the frosting ability but the degree of frosting can be varied by mixing conditions.
The compositions of this invention may be shaped to form useful articles by any of the known methods such as calendering, molding, injection blow molding, extrusion blow molding and extrusion. A particularly useful article that can be formed from the composition of this invention is a frosted bottle by either injection blow molding or extrusion blow molding.
Quite surprisingly, it has been found that bottles molded in smooth mold cavities will exhibit a i 22 frosted appearance when using the compositions of this invention. Although not certain of the scientific principles involved, it is believed that the different viscoelastic properties of the polymers causes the more rubbery (crosslinked PVC) to relax a differet amount after molding, thus creating a fine grained roughness on the surface as can be seen in Fig. 1. This surface roughness creates a frosted effect.
Articles, such as bottles, made according to this invention, have a satin feel. The surface roughness is very shallow which makes bottles of this type highly desirable. They do not have a knobby feel as one would get with high peaks of roughness spaced far apart. The peaks and valleys of the o roughness are very even and closely spaced.
l To further illustrate the present invention, the following specific examples are given, it being understood that this is merely intended in an illustrative and not a limitative sense. In the examples, all parts and percents are by weight unless otherwise indicated.
«oo o EXAMPLE 1 In this example, 4 different PVC compositions were evaluated for their suitability for producing rigid frosted articles. The compositions were all mixed using a Banbury and two roll mill mixers following normal mixing procedures which are well known to those skilled in the art. The mixing procedure was as follows: Banbury mixing to 350°F, and two roll mill mixing at 360 0 F mill roll temperature for 2 minutes.
The recipes for the compositions evaluated are as shown in Table All amounts of ingredients 23 are shown in weight parts based on 100 weight parts of vinyl chloride polymer.

The control (1) had a clear tinted appearance while the remainder of the compositions gave a frosted tinted appearance.
The haze value shows that the haze increases as the amount of crosslinked resin is increased. This is further indication of frosting in that the haze value goes up because of a surface effect and not because of an inherent clarity change in the composition.
A microscopic photograph was taken of strips of compositions 1 and 4. Composition 4 is shown in Fig. 1 which shows the microscopic rough nature of the surface. This surface roughness is what creates the satin feel and frosting effect of the articles of this invention. As can be seen from Fig. 1, the roughness is of a very fine nature in that it is evenly spaced across 24 the surface and the peaks and valleys are small and uniform. Fig. 2 is a microscopic photograph of the control showing a smooth surface.
EXAMPLE 2 The following compositions in Table III were mixed as in Example 1 and bottles were made by extrusion blow molding the compositions.

Also, compositions 4 and 5 contained a crosslinked PVC which was more lightly crosslinked than the PVC used in compositions 2 and 3 as evidenced by the higher tan 6 of the lightly crosslinked PVC. Even 40 weight parts of the lightly crosslinked PVC of composition 5 did not give the degree of frosting (haze) as did the 20 part level of a more crosslinked PVC.
All of the bottles made with the compositions containing crosslinked PVC were of good quality and t 25 exhibited a frosted surface while the bottles made with the control had smooth surfaces.
