Biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) film is a polypropylene film, which is extensively used for packaging. Biaxial orientation is a process that includes heating of a cast film in order to bring it to a stretchable temperature. These films are stretched in a machine in the diagonal direction, which is carried out by the adoption of two methods, namely tenter method and bubble method. Biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) films can resist UV light, and they also possess a smooth surface, good clarity, and excellent chemical and abrasion resistance properties.
