Abstract
A heat-shrinkable film having a layer made of a mixed resin containing a polylactic acid resin and a polyolefin resin as the main components, wherein the mass ratio of the polylactic acid resin and the polyolefin resin is 95/5 to 50/50, the polylactic acid resin is a copolymer of D-lactic acid and L-lactic acid or a mixed resin of the copolymer, the D/L ratio of D-lactic acid and L-lactic acid is 3/97 to 15/85 or 85/15 to 97/3, the storage elastic modulus of the polyolefin resin or the soft acrylic resin at 20° C. is ≦100 MPa as measured at an oscillation frequency of 10 Hz and a strain of 0.1%, the film is stretched in at least one direction, and the heat shrinkage ratio of the film in the main shrinking direction is ≧20% as measured after the film is immersed in 80° C. water for 10 seconds.
