Abstract
A transfer film for holographic images is a multilayer structure including a core and at least one outer layer having a sufficient thickness for receiving a holographic image impressed into it. The outer layer is thinner than the core layer and is a propylene/ethylene random copolymer having a DSC melting point in excess of 120° C. and less than 143° C. The outer layer further includes an antistatic/release additive therein for permitting multiple releases of a metallized layer initially applied to the outer layer having the holographic image impressed into it, onto a surface of another substrate.
