An oriented syndiotactic polystyrene-based film composed of an oriented
film made of a syndiotactic styrene polymer and an adhesiveness-improving
layer formed from a specific water-dispersible resin on at least one
surface of the oriented film, which is excellent in the tight adhesion
between the oriented film and the adhesiveness-improving layer, the
adhesion between the adhesiveness-improving layer and an ink layer or
laminate layer applied thereon, economical efficiency, recyclability, and
environmental compatibility in production. It is particularly preferable
that the film be produced by applying the aqueous dispersion of the
water-dispersible resin on unstretched or uniaxially stretched film to
form the adhesiveness-improving layer, stretching the obtained laminate
uni- or bi-axially at least one time, and then heat-treating the
resulting laminate.
