Abstract

A composite film for packaging foods having at least one layer of a thermoplastic film of low density polyethylene, polypropylene, polybutene, polyamide, polystyrene or polyvinyl chloride having a thickness between 25 and 3,000 .mu.m, and another layer of a terpolymer film having a thickness between 10 and 100 .mu.m. The terpolymer film contains from 88 to 98.7 mol % of units derived from ethylene, from 1 to 10 mol % of units derived from an ester of an alkyl acrylate or an alkyl methacrylate, the alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and from 0.3 to 3 mol % of units derived from maleic anhydride.
