Abstract

Abstract A heat-adhesive film laminate comprising a film of a plastic material having excellent heat resistance such as polyesters, polyamides or polycarbonates laminated on one side of a metal foil such as aluminum foil, copper foil, iron foil or the like and a film of a resin comprising predominantly block copolyester having a melting point of higher than 140° C but lower than the temperature at which the characteristics of the plastic film is deteriorated and a Young's modulus ε (dyne/cm 2 ) and a breaking elongation (Δl/lo) × 100 (%) when measured at 20° C and 100° C being as follows, respectively: 10.sup.7 (dyne/cm.sup.2) < ε < 10.sup.10 (dyne/cm.sup.2) and (Δl/lo) × 100 > 40 (%) laminated on other side of the metal foil.
