  • Patent number: 12220854
    Abstract: A laminate including at least a heat-sensitive adhesive layer, a substrate layer, and a protective layer in this order, wherein the substrate layer has a thermoplastic resin film, the heat-sensitive adhesive layer contains a higher fatty acid amide, and the protective layer contains a silicone-based release agent. An in-mold label comprising this laminate. A molded body obtained by affixing this in-mold label. An in-mold label in the form of a roll obtained by winding this in-mold label. This invention provides an in-mold label that is less susceptible to dirt and scratches, excellent in decorativeness and visibility, less likely to cause friction when the labels are stacked on each other, and easy to handle, and has strong adhesive strength to a molded body.
