Abstract
Abstract A vinylidene fluoride resin film having (1) a crystal melting point of 182° C. or higher as measured by differential scanning calorimeter in nitrogen atmosphere at a temperature elevation speed of 10° C./min; (2) a diffraction point corresponding to (1 1 ζ) of the α-phase crystal in the wide angle X-ray diffraction photograph; and (3) an orientation degree of the crystal of 0.85 or more when measured under irradiation of X-ray incident vertically on a major surface of the film. The vinylidene fluoride resin film is obtained by inflation accompanying melt necking stretching. The film has improved mechanical properties and heat-stability and is also adapted for use as a base film of a metallized film.
