The present invention relates to thermoplastic structures wherein the inner sealant
layer of said structure comprises a polyethylene having a density from about 0.88
to about 0.96 and wherein the polyethylene is processed at a temperature ranging
from about 150 F. to about 500 F. in order to prevent the release of
extractable materials. The thermoplastic structures can be used independently to
form a flexible packaging film or can be affixed to a second film structure or
substrate to form a flexible packaging film. The flexible packaging films can be
used for forming containers for the storing and transporting of organoleptic sensitive products.
