Abstract
Disclosed is a retort-sterilizable laminated pouch having an excellent loading pressure resistance, which comprises two laminated sheets, each comprising a flexible gas-barrier substrate and a heat-sealable crystalline olefin resin layer formed on one surface of said substrate, said laminated sheets being piled in the form of a pouch where the olefin resin layers confront each other and the periphery of the pouch of the piled sheets being heat-sealed, wherein the crystalline olefin resin layer is composed of polyethylene having a flow ratio (Kp), defined by the following formula, of at least 165: ##EQU1## wherein MI.sub.2 stands for the melt index (g/10 min) as determined according to the condition E of ASTM D-1238 and MI.sub.20 stands for the melt index (g/10 min) as determined according to the condition E of ASTM D-1238 except that the load is changed to 20.0 Kg and the sample collecting time is changed to 30 seconds, and a density of at least 0.935 g/cc. It is preferred that the crystalline olefin resin layer be composed of a blend comprising a major amount of polyethylene having a flow ratio (Kp) of at least 165 and a minor amount of polyethylene having a flow ratio (Kp) not higher than 154.
