Abstract
The present disclosure provides for a machine direction oriented polyethylene (MDO-PE) film, a laminate comprising the MDO-PE film and a method of forming the MDO-PE film. The MDO-PE film includes a core layer comprising a first ethylene-based polymer a skin layer comprising a second ethylene-based polymer and a sub-skin layer in-between and in contact with the core layer and the skin layer. Each value for the density, peak melting point and percent crystallinity by weight increases from the core layer to the sub-skin layer and from the sub-skin layer to the skin layer. The MDO-PE film further includes predetermined values for a ratio of the percent crystallinity by weight of the core layer to the skin layer and a ratio of the peak melting point of the core layer to the skin layer. The MDO-PE film can be useful in food package, among other areas.
