Abstract
Abstract A process for producing an oriented composite polyolefin resin film which comprises melt-laminating a polyolefin resin sheet for a paper-like layer on at least one surface of a monoaxially stretched polyolefin resin sheet for a substrate layer, and then stretching the resulting laminated sheet in a direction perpendicular to said monoaxially stretched direction. The polyolefin resin sheet for the substrate layer is a sheet of composite structure prepared by melt-extruding the specific compositions (A), (B), and (C) through a co-extrusion die in such a manner that a layer composed of the thermoplastic resin composition (A) is laminated on one surface of an intermediate layer composed of the polyolefin composition (B) containing a filler and a layer composed of the thermoplastic resin composition (C) is laminated on the other surface of the intermediate layer. Said polyolefin resin sheet for the paper-like layer is composed of a specific polyolefin composition (D) containing a filler.
