Abstract
A heat sealable, multi-layer film structure for multi-color printing or lamination processes and method for making the same are provided. The multi-layer film structure may include a core layer comprising a thermoplastic polymer and essentially no migratory slip agents; a functional layer on a first side of the core layer, wherein the functional layer is a printable layer or a laminatable layer; and a heat sealable skin layer on a second side of the core layer, the heat sealable skin layer comprising a thermoplastic polymer and a slip system. The multi-layer film structure is prepared without any migratory slip additives. Without migratory slip additives, the multi-layer film structure exhibits excellent machinability on typical packaging equipment.
