Abstract

Disclosed is a heat-sealable lactic acid-based polymer laminates which have heat resistance of 60.degree. C. or above, high sealing strength and good biodegradability and are useful in various films, sheets, packaging containers, etc., comprising a base layer (I) made of a crystallized lactic acid-based polymer (A) and a sealing layer (II) made of an amorphous lactic acid-based polymer (B) having a softening point lower than the melting point of said lactic acid-based polymer (A), and films, sheets or packaging containers with the use of these laminates.
