The document summarizes a presentation given at the 2017 International Polyolefins Conference about nanolayer film production using a modular disc co-extrusion die. The die can produce films with layer thicknesses as small as a nanometer. It was explained that nanolayer films can have improved properties like strength and barrier compared to conventional films due to effects like interlayer quenching and the "I-beam effect". Examples were given showing how nanolayer films using commodity materials could replace more expensive films for applications like shrink films. The benefits of nanolayer film production for product development and cost savings were discussed.
