Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 58 words
An oriented film structure comprising a polypropylene film having on at least one surface thereof a layer of a blend of (I) a linear low density copolymer of ethylene with a minor proportion of a C 3 -C 10 alpha olefin and (II) polypropylene wherein said blend layer has a lower coefficient of friction than said polypropylene film.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 58 words
An oriented film structure comprising a polypropylene film having on at least one surface thereof a layer of a blend of (I) a linear low density copolymer of ethylene with a minor proportion of a C 3 -C 10 alpha olefin and (II) polypropylene wherein said blend layer has a lower coefficient of friction than said polypropylene film.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
The structure of claim 1 wherein said blend contains from about 2-90 wt. % of said copolymer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
The structure of claim 2 wherein said blend contains from about 4-70 wt. % of said copolymer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 21 words
The structure of claim 2 wherein said minor proportion of alpha olefin constitutes from about 2-8 wt. % of said copolymer.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 18 words
The structure of claim 3 wherein said minor proportion constitutes from about 2.5-5 wt. % of said copolymer.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 16 words
The structure of claim 1 wherein said layer is on one surface of said polypropylene film.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 16 words
The structure of claim 1 wherein said layer is on both surfaces of said polypropylene film.
Claim 9
Independent Claim 63 words
A method for making an oriented film structure comprising: applying to at least one surface of a polypropylene film a layer of a blend of (I) a linear low density copolymer of ethylene with a minor proportion of a C 3 -C 10 alpha olefin and (II) polypropylene, bringing the combination to a stretch-orientable condition and stretching it in at least one direction.
Claim 10
Independent Claim 63 words
A method for making an oriented film structure comprising: applying to at least one surface of a polypropylene film a layer of a blend of (I) a linear low density copolymer of ethylene with a minor proportion of a C 3 -C 10 alpha olefin and (II) polypropylene, bringing the combination to a stretch-orientable condition and stretching it in at least one direction.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method of claim 8 wherein the blend layer is applied to the polypropylene film during coextrusion through a die followed by cooling prior to biaxial orientation.
