A slip-coated thermoplastic film is disclosed wherein the slip coating applied is essentially an aqueous wax emulsion. The wax emulsion is preferably applied to a thermoplastic film such as polypropylene. The resultant slip-coated film has low haze, non-blocking, and consistently low coefficient of friction for good machinability.

Slip coated thermoplastic films

A slip-coated thermoplastic film is disclosed wherein the slip coating applied is essentially an aqueous wax emulsion. The wax emulsion is preferably applied to a thermoplastic film such as polypropylene between the machine direction and transverse direction stretching process. The resultant slip-coated film has low haze, non-blocking, and consistently low coefficient of friction for good machinability.

The present invention relates to thermoplastic bag structures which are characterized by having a pair of carrying handles formed integrally with the bag walls and extending upwardly from opposite sides of the open mouth portion of the bag. Specifically, such handled bags are particularly characterized in having reinforced handle members where the handles comprise at least two layers of thermoplastic material, one of the layers imparting tensile strength to the individual layer and the other layer particularly employed to provide the requisite puncture and tear resistance necessary in such a bag structure.
