Abstract

A multi-layered biaxially oriented film comprising at least one primary layer and at least one secondary layer, wherein the primary layer comprises a propylene copolymer having a first melting point and the secondary layer comprises a polypropylene homopolymer or copolymer having a second melting point, such that the second melting point is greater than the first melting point and the multi-layered construction is biaxially stretched. The multi-layered film further includes a surface finishing layer, to provide a writable multi-layered film. This stretched film exhibits a refractive index in the machine direction (MD) that is greater than the refractive index measured in the transverse direction (TD).
