Abstract
Abstract A process is disclosed for making an oriented polymer film product which comprises: (a) applying a solventless, curable silicone release composition to an extrudable, orientable polymer; (b) extruding the polymer as a sheet or film; (c) orienting the sheet or film such that curable silicone release composition migrates to at least one surface of the sheet or film forming a substantially continuous layer thereon; and (d) subjecting the oriented sheet or film to silicone-curing conditions whereby said curable silicone release composition forms a substantially continuous release layer thereon.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
85 words
A process for making an oriented polymer film product which comprises: (a) incorporating a solventless, curable silicone release composition into an extrudable, orientable polymer; (b) extruding the polymer as a sheet or film; (c) orienting the sheet or film such that curable silicone release composition migrates to at least one surface of the sheet or film forming a substantially continuous layer thereon; and, (d) subjecting the oriented sheet or film to silicone-curing conditions whereby said curable silicone release composition forms a peelable release layer thereon.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
85 words
A process for making an oriented polymer film product which comprises: (a) incorporating a solventless, curable silicone release composition into an extrudable, orientable polymer; (b) extruding the polymer as a sheet or film; (c) orienting the sheet or film such that curable silicone release composition migrates to at least one surface of the sheet or film forming a substantially continuous layer thereon; and, (d) subjecting the oriented sheet or film to silicone-curing conditions whereby said curable silicone release composition forms a peelable release layer thereon.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
20 words
The process of claim 1 wherein in step (c), the film is biaxially oriented in the machine and transverse directions.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
16 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the film is fabricated from a highly stereoregular polypropylene homopolymer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
33 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the film possesses a barrier layer applied to one surface thereof, said barrier layer preventing or blocking the exudation of curable silicone release composition upon said surface.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
34 words
The process of claim 3 wherein the film possesses a relatively thin layer of polymer of comparatively low stereoregularity applied to one surface thereof, the curable silicone release composition preferentially migrating to said surface.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
35 words
The process of claim 5 wherein the film possesses a barrier layer applied to the opposite surface thereof, said barrier layer preventing or blocking the exudation of curable silicone release composition upon said opposite sureface.
