Abstract

There is provided a method for plastic film surface treatment for improving printability and adhesion properties which comprises feeding a plastic film and a wiping web in the opposite direction to each other in a ratio of the film running speed to the wiping web running speed being 1/1 to 100/1 and bringing them into contact with each other between knip rolls under a proper pressure, whereby a weak layer containing oligomers and additives is wiped off from the plastic film surface. The treatment improves the printability and adhesion of film inexpensively in a stable manner without being affected by the varied properties of film to be treated and also without deteriorating the physical properties of the film.
