Composite films resulting from the invention possess significantly improved slit tear strength and tear resistance over biaxially stretched films with the same thicknesses. The invention can be widely used to improve tear resistance of stretch films fabricated from various existing materials and processes. In addition, it allows simple operations and is readily applicable to mass production.
