Films, 0.5-10 mils thick, which are rapidly and completely soluble in cold water, and which are suitable for use as packaging film in automatic packaging equipment, can be prepared by conventional melt extrusion processes when prepared from a novel composition consisting essentially of 5-20 parts by weight of a polyethylene glycol (having an average molecular weight in the range between 325 and 550) in 100 parts by weight of a partially hydrolyzed low molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol. |
