Abstract

Support film, in particular for an adhesive tape that is stretched monoaxially in the longitudinal direction and that contains a base layer made of polypropylene and a co-extrusion layer made of polyethylene, characterized in that the tension in the longitudinal direction at 10% strain is at least 150 N/mm 2 , preferably at least 200 N/mm 2 , most preferably at least 250 N/mm 2 and a separating enamel coat is applied to the exterior side of the co-extrusion layer.

Claims (15)

1 . A carrier film for an adhesive tape, which is oriented monoaxially in longitudinal direction and which comprises a base layer of polypropylene and a coextrusion layer of polyethylene, wherein the stress in longitudinal direction at 10% elongation is at least 150 N/mm 2 and further comprises a release coating applied on the outer side of the coextrusion layer.

2 . The carrier film according to claim 1 , wherein the carrier film

has a draw ratio in longitudinal direction of at least 1:8,

a has a tensile strength in longitudinal direction of at least 300 N/mm 2 , and

has a stress in longitudinal direction at 1% elongation of at least 20 N/mm 2 .

3 . The carrier film according to claim 1 , wherein the carrier film has a thickness of 25 to 200 μm.

4 . The carrier film according to claim 1 , wherein the base layer comprises a polypropylene with a melt index of 0.3 to 15 g/10 min, and with a flexural modulus of at least 1600 MPa.

5 . The carrier film according to claim 1 , wherein the polypropylene of the base layer is nucleated.

6 . The carrier film according to claim 1 , wherein the fraction of polyethylene in the coextrusion layer is between 50% and 100% by weight.

7 . The carrier film as according to claim 1 , wherein the polyethylene of the coextrusion layer is a homopolymer.

8 . The carrier film according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness of the coextrusion layer is 3% to 20% of the total film thickness.

9 . The carrier film according to claim 1 , wherein the film comprises an adhesive applied to at least one side of the film.

10 . (canceled)

11 . The carrier film according to claim 1 wherein the stress in longitudinal direction at 10% elongation is at least 200 N/mm 2 .

12 . The carrier film according to claim 7 wherein the homopolymer is PE HD.
