  • Publication number: 20240076487
    Abstract: The invention provides a polyolefin-based resin film that allows, even when the polyolefin-based resin film is laminated with a base film having a large strain in the molecular orientation axis, a packaging bag obtained from a laminated body thereof to be excellent in straight cuttability and ease of tearing, less likely to be broken, and excellent in slipperiness.
