Provided are: a multi-layer film for the outer packaging of a disposable heating pad that: has exceptional gas barrier properties for inhibiting the transmission of oxygen gas, water vapor, etc.; makes it possible to prevent expansion caused by hydrogen gas generated during periods of storage; and has exceptional seal strength, impact resistance, and weather resistance. Also provided is a disposable heating pad. In the outer packaging of a disposable heating pad, the outer packaging being formed from a multi-layer film including a first barrier layer (10) and a second barrier layer (20), the first barrier layer (10) and the second barrier layer (20) comprise a polyvinylidene chloride layer (12) or polyvinylidene chloride layer (22) formed by applying a polyvinylidene chloride coating to at least one surface (upper side in FIG. 1) of a heat-resistant resin substrate (11) or heat-resistant resin substrate (21).本發明提供一種阻止氧氣、水蒸氣等之透過之阻氣性優異,並且可防止由保存期間中所產生之氫氣引起之膨脹,且密封強度、耐衝擊性、耐候性優異的拋棄式發熱包外袋用多層膜及拋棄式發熱包。於由包含第1阻隔層10及第2阻隔層20之多層膜所形成之拋棄式發熱包外袋中,第1阻隔層10及第2阻隔層20包含在耐熱性樹脂基材11或耐熱性樹脂基材21之至少一個面(圖1中上側)塗佈聚偏二氯乙烯而成之聚偏二氯乙烯層12或聚偏二氯乙烯層22。
