Abstract
A recyclable film contains a base film and a sealant. The base film has at least one layer containing a polar polymer and at least one layer containing a polar polymer compatibilizer. Additionally, the base film has been oriented and annealed such that it exhibits free shrink of less than 10% in both the machine direction and the transverse direction when exposed to heat of 90° C. The film may be used for demanding retort processing applications. This film has advantages over prior recyclable films in efficient film manufacturing, high quality package production and superior package performance.
