Sealable, peelable film
First Claim
1. A sealable and peelable film coextrudate to facilitate sealing and peeling, consisting essentially of:
- a core layer;
an outer sealing layer, wherein the outer sealing layer is positioned on a first side of the core layer,wherein the outer sealing layer is openable without creating a z-direction tear,a second layer, wherein the second layer is positioned on a second side of the core layer; and
a peeling layer, wherein the peeling layer is positioned either between the core layer and the outer sealing layer or between the core layer and the second layer and wherein the peeling layer is directly adjacent to and in contact with the outer sealing layer or the second layer, wherein the peeling layer comprises at least one block copolymeric component comprising at least one olefinic component,wherein at least a substantial portion of the peeling layer is shielded from the external environment thereby enhancing the durability of the peeling layer,wherein the relative thickness ratio of the peeling layer to the outer sealing layer or the second layer is from about 1;
8 to 3;
1,wherein the thickness of the peeling layer is from 0.3 μ
m to 3 μ
m,wherein the film has a wide angle haze value of less than about 5,wherein the core layer is thicker than the outer sealing layer, second layer and peeling layer, and wherein the core layer, outer sealing layer, second layer and peeling layer are formed as a coextrudate.

Abstract
A sealable and peelable film comprising a four layer coextrudate comprising a core layer contributing predominantly towards the thickness of the film, a first sealing layer provided on one side of the core layer and a second sealing layer, or alternatively a laminating layer, provided on the other side of the core layer, and the film comprising a peeling layer in between the first sealing layer and the core layer and/or in between the second sealing layer, or alternatively the laminating layer, and the core layer, and wherein the peeling layer is adjacent the first sealing layer and/or the second sealing layer and/or the laminating layer, and wherein the relative thickness of the peeling layer and its adjacent sealing and/or lamination layer (p:s/l ratio) is from 1:10 to 5:1.
