Abstract

A method for making a film in which bead formation along opposite longitudinal edges thereof is at least minimized by extruding into a setting bath a generally flat stream of coagulable solution with the longitudinal edges of such stream each having a concave contour and being free to deform into a rounded contour under the influence of the interfacial surface tension forces acting upon the extruded stream of coagulable solution during the setting thereof.
