A metallized multilayer film structure includes a core layer of a film-forming polyolefin having a first side and a second side. A metal receiving skin layer may be disposed on the first side of the core layer. A metal layer may be deposited on the surface of the metal receiving skin layer opposite the core layer. A topcoat layer may be disposed on the surface of the metal layer opposite the metal receiving skin layer. A polymer skin layer may be disposed on the second side of the core layer. The film structure may optionally include one or more tie layers. The film structure may also optionally include a primer layer interposed between the topcoat layer and the metal layer. The present metallized multilayer film structure may be suitable for use as a monoweb to package product as opposed to being used in a lamination. The film structure exhibits superior scratch resistance and resistance to other types of damage. The film structure may be directly surface printed and then used to directly package product.

Monoweb metallized film suitable for direct surface printing

Oriented multi-layer polypropylene films having low coefficients of friction and good optical properties (haze and gloss) are disclosed. The films of this invention comprise at least a first surface layer of a material consisting essentially of HDPE and a second layer of a material consisting essentially of polypropylene, said film being oriented by stretching at a temperature above the melting point of the material of said first surface layer and below the melting point of the material of said second layer.
