The present invention provides methods of preparing peelable seal layers, methods of preparing multilayer films, peelable seal layers made therefrom, and multilayer films made therefrom. In one aspect, a method of preparing a peelable seal layer comprises (a) providing a first blend comprising (i) from 5 to 98 percent by weight of a reactor grade propylene based plastomer or elastomer having a molecular weight distribution of less than 3.5 and a density of less than 0.89 g/cc and (ii) from 2 to 95 percent by weight of a second polymer selected from the group consisting of polyethylene, polybutylene, and styrenic polymer and mixtures thereof; (b) providing at least one linear low density polyethylene; (c) blending the first blend with the at least one linear low density polyethylene to obtain a second blend; and (d) extruding the second blend to form a peelable seal layer, wherein the peelable seal layer has a heat seal initiation temperature less than 120° C. when sealed at a bar pressure of 40 psi with a dwell time of 0.5 seconds.
