Abstract
A flexible multilayer film suitable as a (food-)packaging material includes a first seal layer comprising principally a metallocene-catalyzed polyolefin, and a second seal layer comprising a copolymer of at least one oxygen-containing monomer and ethylene. The copolymer is set to have a crystal melting point lower than that of the metallocene-catalyzed polyolefin. The second seal layer may preferably have a thickness larger than that of the first seal layer. Because of the provision of the second seal layer adjacent to the first seal layer, the multilayer film is provided with an improved film-formability while retaining the good sealability of the metallocene-catalyzed polyolefin.
