A multilayer transparent film with successively: an amorphous layer C of copolyester PET-G-which the diol units include Ethylene Glycol -EG- units and CycloHexaneDiMethanol -CHDM- units; a crystalline/crystallizable layer B with: a copolyester PET-X which the diol units include Ethylene Glycol -EG- units and which the acid units include Terephtalic Acid -TA- units and units of at least one Dicarboxylic Acid Different From Terephtalic Acid [DADFTA units], the DADFTA units being chosen in the group consisting of Isophtalic Acid -IA-units, Sebacic Acid -SA-units, Adipic Acid -AA-units, and mixtures thereof; and possibly a polyester PolyEthyleneTerephtalate PET; optionally a layer A, identical or different from the layer B, wherein the concentration of the CHDM units in the layer C is between 15 and 34 mol % and the melting temperature of layer B is between 180 and 245° C. Also a manufacturing method of the film and its applications for the manufacture of containers.

A biaxially oriented multilayer transparent film including at least two layers of polyester, respectively a core layer and at least one outer layer, which can be identical or different, wherein: i) at least the core layer includes at least one biaxially oriented transparent polyester PE1, ii) at least one of the outer layers includes, on the one hand, at least one biaxially oriented polyester PE2, and, on the other hand, particles coming from the reaction between at least one metal compound and at least one monomeric or oligomeric unit of PE2, the particles having more preferably a d50&#x2014;as &#x3bc;m and following an order of preference&#x2014;between 0.5 and 5; between 1.0 and 4, and between 1.5 and 3.0. Also relates to the manufacture of this film and its applications as a laminate in particular in the backsheets of photovoltaic cells.
