Abstract
A multilayer film is provided that includes a barrier layer, and an adhesive layer, which includes a maleic anhydride (MAH)-grafted polyolefin. The barrier layer has a melting point higher than the adhesive layer, and the melting point of the barrier layer is higher than 165° C. The multilayer film enables production of gas-tight multilayer laminates which exhibit a high peel resistance combined with a low weight and/or thickness. Further, a multilayer laminate and an inflatable airbag that include a fabric layer adhered to the multilayer film, as well as a method of its manufacturing are described.
