(a) True

(b) False

I had been asked this question in an interview for job.

The above asked question is from Orientation of Thermoplastic Films in division Thermoplastic Polymers Properties & Processing of Food Packaging Technology

Answer 1

Right choice is (a) True

To elaborate: The given statement is true. The amount of orientation imparted to a film depends on the stretching temperature, the amount of stretching, the rate of stretching and the quench. The extent of orientation is increased by decreasing the stretching temperature, increasing the amount of stretch, increasing the rate of stretch and increasing the amount of quench.
