Abstract

A biaxially oriented and heat set film having improved abrasion resistance is described, whose distinguishing characteristics are that it has a density of more than 1.38 g/cm.sup.3 and that the following relationship exists between the orientation birefringence (.DELTA.n), the reduced specific viscosity (RSV), and the temper peak (Tp) of the film: EQU RSV-.vertline..DELTA.n.vertline.-Tp/250.gtoreq.0 EQU with.vertline..DELTA..vertline.=.vertline.n.sub.MD -n.sub.TD .vertline.. In addition, a process for manufacturing the abrasion resistant film is disclosed.
