Non-continuously laminated structures of thermoplastic films with differing material compositions and functional material properties

A non-continuously laminated structure of thermoplastic films with differing material compositions and functional material properties, comprising:

• a first thermoplastic film comprising a first material composition that provides the first thermoplastic film layer with a first functional material property, wherein the first material composition comprises a first polymer as a principal component, a first density, and a first molecular weight;
• a second thermoplastic film layer comprising a second material composition that provides the second thermoplastic film layer with a second functional material property, wherein the second material composition comprises one or more of:
• a second polymer as a principal component, where the second polymer differs from the first polymer;
• a second density, where the second density differs from the first density;
• a second molecular weight, where the second molecular weight differs from the first molecular weight;
• or
• an additive that is lacking in the first material composition;
• and
• a plurality of non-continuous bonds securing the first thermoplastic film layer directly to the second thermoplastic film layer.
