Process for forming a multilayer film and the film formed therefrom

In one embodiment, the process for forming a multilayer film comprises disposing a supportive layer adjacent to an imprinting layer to form a multilayer film and imprinting microstructures in the imprinting layer as the multilayer film passes between a heated roller and a compression roller. The mul...

Zusammenfassung:In one embodiment, the process for forming a multilayer film comprises disposing a supportive layer adjacent to an imprinting layer to form a multilayer film and imprinting microstructures in the imprinting layer as the multilayer film passes between a heated roller and a compression roller. The multilayer film is free of a removable carrier layer. The supportive layer has a supportive layer glass transition temperature that is greater than or equal to about 15° C. higher than the imprinting layer glass transition temperature and/or the supportive layer has a supportive layer melting temperature that is greater than or equal to about 15° C. higher than an imprinting layer melting temperature. The imprinting temperature is lower than the supportive layer melting temperature.
