Abstract

Abstract A heat-shrinkable laminated film suitable for a packaging film, having at least two layers of a mixed aliphatic polyamide resin layer (A) of 55 to 90 wt. % of an aliphatic polyamide resin with a crystalline melting point of 175° to 240° C. and 45 to 10 wt % of an aliphatic polyamide resin with a crystalline melting point of from not less than 120° C. to less than 175° C.; and a mixed resin layer (B) of a saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer as the main constituent. These laminated films have excellent gas barrier properties, stretchability, uniform heat-shrinkability and useful dimensional stability.
