Plastic Film Data

Description

An experiment was conducted to determine the optimum conditions for extruding plastic film. Three responses were measured in relation to two factors, rate of extrusion and amount of an additive.

Format

A data frame with 20 observations on the following 5 variables.

tear

a numeric vector: tear resistance

gloss

a numeric vector: film gloss

opacity

a numeric vector: film opacity

rate

a factor representing change in the rate of extrusion with levels Low (-10%), High (10%)

additive

a factor with levels Low (1.0%), High (1.5%)
