Abstract

Abstract A laminated material comprising an aluminum or polypropylene substrate and a resin composition layer coated on the substrate is described, wherein the composition layer comprises from 60 to 99.9% by weight of an ethylene-based copolymer and from 40 to 0.1% by weight of polypropylene modified with unsaturated carboxylic acid or its anhydride, and the composition layer is coated on the substrate by an extrusion lamination method. This laminated material has excellent physical and chemical properties, and is very useful as a wrapping material, particularly for use in automatic wrapping of foods, drinks, tools, and so forth.
