  • Patent number: 5736260
    Abstract: A laminated film useful for packaging includes two outer layers and a core layer of a polypropylene resin interposed therebetween. Each of the outer layers includes (A) an ethylene-.alpha.-olefin copolymer having a density of less than 0.910 g/cm.sup.3 but not less than 0.870 g/cm.sup.3 and an ethylene content of at least 50 mol % and showing only one endothermic peak when analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), (B) an ethylene-.alpha.-olefin copolymer having a density of 0.910-0.935 g/cm.sup.3 and an ethylene content of at least 50 mol %, and (C) an anti-fogging agent. The density of (B) is greater by at least 0.008 g/cm.sup.3 than that of (A).

  • Patent number: 5271976
    Abstract: A tubular multilayer film including at least two, biaxially stretched tubular layers each formed of a polypropylene resin, wherein the innermost layer contains spherical antiblocking agent particles having an average particle size of 0.2 to 5 .mu.m in an amount of 0.1 to 0.7% by weight, and the outermost layer is free of the spherical antiblocking agent particles is disclosed. The multilayer film may be prepared by biaxially stretching a multilayer tubular raw sheet having an innermost polypropylene layer containing spherical antiblocking agent particles and an outermost polypropylene layer free of such antiblocking agent particles.

  • Patent number: 5240111
    Abstract: A package in which an article is sealingly enclosed with a thermally shrinkable film having a row perforations used as air discharge port during shrink packaging. A strip of a film is disposed inside of the package to close the perforations and to prevent moisture and germs from entering into the package during storage and transportion of the package.
