Abstract

A polymer film laminate is provided having improved machinability on modern high speed belt drive machines, particularly when these machines are set up to form lap back seals. A method of assembling such a film is also provided. The film includes an outside web having an upper surface layer containing a silicon oil. This laminating web can be used with virtually any co-laminate, metallized or not, which is bonded thereto with an adhesive. Upon winding the composite film laminate upon a core, silicone oil is transferred to the inside surface of the laminate, thus providing an inside coefficient friction which is about equal to or less than the outside coefficient of friction. Hot slip properties are also improved upon such transfer. The outside and inside webs are independently formed, which allows the inside web to include coatings or film layers which are not ordinarily usable in a silicone oil-containing film.
