Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 60 words
A metallizable polypropylene film comprising a homopolypropylene core containing about 0.03 to 0.15% by weight based on the polymer of a fatty acid amide slip agent and having on one of its surfaces a 1 to 20 gauge layer comprised of a corona-treated propylene--ethylene copolymer containing about 1 to 10 wt. % ethylene and having no slip agent included therein.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 60 words
A metallizable polypropylene film comprising a homopolypropylene core containing about 0.03 to 0.15% by weight based on the polymer of a fatty acid amide slip agent and having on one of its surfaces a 1 to 20 gauge layer comprised of a corona-treated propylene--ethylene copolymer containing about 1 to 10 wt. % ethylene and having no slip agent included therein.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 21 words
A metallizable film according to claim 1 wherein the slip agent is present in the amount of about 0.05 to 0.1%.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 14 words
A metallizable polypropylene film according to claim 1 wherein the slip agent is erucamide.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
A metallizable film according to claim 3 wherein the erucamide is present in the amount of about 0.05 to 0.1%.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
A metallizable polypropylene film according to claim 1 wherein the other surface of the homopolymer core carries a heat seal coating.
