C C ttCI Background Art The present invention relates to improvements in S corrugated paperboard manufacture. Typically such corrugated paperboard is manufactured from two or more liners and fluted medium. To produce a double-lined single wall corrugated S board, a single-face liner and a double-face liner are used.
c The fluted medium is produced and glued to the single-face S liner to form the single-face web. This web is then glued to the double-face liner to form the corrugated board. In cases 15 where a plastic film or wax coating is desired on one face of the corrugated board, it is taken from the corrugator in sheets and processed as sheets through a device in which the plastic film is adhesively laminated or adhered onto the board, or the board is passed through a roller coater in which a layer of wax in liquid form is flowed over and roller-coated onto the corrugated board as is desired. These off-line coatings of film or wax have been used to enhance the barrier properties of the corrugated board. Extrusion laminated polyethylene structures have been made before in which the plastic is buried between two layers of kraft paper. In other cases, packages made of corrugated board 4
I
have used separate polyethylene plastic bags enclosing them to provide product protection. The off-line extrusion or coating methods have not been economical or practical for commercial, production.
In the production of corrugated paper, the heat of drying the adhesive involves contacting the paper with preheat drums, hot plates and the like which operate at temperatures on the order of 350 0 F. This exceeds the softening point of plastics, such as polyethylene, and the extrusion coating and adhering of the plastic with the liner paper results in softening the plastic and a subsequent transfer of the plastic material to the drums and hot plates of the corrugator equipment results, which is unacceptable for continued production.

4 The present invention is directed to a method of cc producing a plastic laminated corrugated paperboard on-line in the corrugator using the heat and process cycle of the rC C C corrugator to perform the lamination. The plastic is added as a film to the single-face liner surface in the double- C 9; 9 backer after the liner paper has been put through the single facer and subjected to contact with the drum heaters at the double-face glue station. The laminating utilizes heat imparted to the single-face liner in the corrugating operation plus the heat of the hot plate section which heat seals the film onto the liner paper surface in the doublebacker. The film is maintained in spaced relationship opposite the hot plates in the dryer section of the corrugator. The film in smooth, unwrinkled condition contacts the single-face liner side of the corrugated board at about the stage the double-face liner is joined to it in 2
I
THE CLAIMS DEFINING THE INVENTION ARE AS FOLLOWS: 1. The method of manufacturing a plastic film laminated corrugated paperboard comprising the steps of continuously movina a web of sinal i r~nsr-~ the double-backer, and is held against the single-face liner by the belt of the double-backer. The heat of the corrugator laminates the film on the kraft liner without using adhesives. The corrugated paperboard web that exits the dryer section has on one surface a laminated plastic film surface as part of the manufactured paperboard.
Subsequently, the web is processed into sheets of finite dimension and stacked in the usual fashion.
An important feature of the invention is the application of heat to the plastic film away from hot-plate surfaces, pre-heat drums or like surfaces such that melted plastic does not coat or contaminate the surfaces of the apparatus.
Relatively low temperature resistant films, such as inexpensive high density polyethylene, may be used in production of the corrugated paperboard producing a moisture vapor barrier property superior to wax coatings and off-line t 3. plastic film coatings previously used and at a cost that is C t t fc competitive with the processes of producing laminated plastic to paperboard product.
Another important feature of the invention is the film laminated corrugated paperboard structure produced by the 1 method of the invention has excellent moisture vapor transmission rates (MVTR). Furthermore, the film laminate of this structure will not be subject of cracking at the carton scores and folds and the plastic material will not rub off or flake off onto the product packaged in the carton. A plastic film composition may be selected that is FDA and USDA approved for use in packaging food that will come into contact with the plastic.
The present invention utilizes the corrugator equipment in use today to manufacture single wall corrugated paperboard 3 or multiwall corrugated paperboard. A plastic film in web form that is approximately the width of the corrugated paper web is guided in smooth surface condition onto the single face liner paper at the nip of the double-backer drive belt and the single face liner at the entrance of the doublebacker section of the corrugator. The single face liner preheat drums and the double-backer steam chests provide the heat to the paper that is required for making the lamination of the plastic onto the paper and the double-backer belt and weight rollers provide the necessary pressure. The plastic film materials for use in this on-line method of lamination c are co-extruded structures of thermoplastic polymeric film.
SIn a preferred form a polyolefin e.g. polyethylene or S polypropylene, or polyester, e.g. polyethylene terraphthalate, is co-extruded along with a copolymer of olefins with alpha-beta monoethylenically unsaturated S monomers, such as acrylic acid, methyl acrylic acid, methyl Ct or ethyl acrylate or methocylate vinyl acetate. A specific film is a co-extruded High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and heat seal of layer Ethylene Acrylic Acid. Another specific co-extruded film which may be used is polypropylene coated with a heat seal layer, or a polyester film coated with a heat seal layer.
As the demand on corrugator speed may need to be increased, or activation temperature of the heat seal layer Sof the co-extruded film is of a higher temperature, it is feasible to supplement the heat source of the corrugator.
This heat supplement may be augmented by single face web preheater, controlled through its wrap arm, or by addition of a further single face preheater.
The plastic film on a roll is unwound under some tension 4 and guided by a turning bar and spreader roll onto the uppermost paper surface of the single face web jIust t).VOr to the double-backer drive belt and single face iinor intaoface or nip which is at the entrance of the doubJ°e-backoa ointion.
As the web goes through the double-backer of the auvr g itor, the temperature of the single face paper web and tho dooblebacker steam chest sections activate the heat oetal layer of the film. The double-backer belt and rollers apply pre.u,re and the film is laminated with the liner paper.
The process may include an optional film treating station at the double-backer exit to treat the plastic iii.
ft or 0' surface of the paperboard web to enhance adhesion of aqueous I it adhesives used in assembly of cartons made from the produced film laminated corrugated board. Such treating station may be equipped with Corona discharge device or high velocity flame system. As an alternative, the film surface may be a. treated selectively or overall by similar technique in the i printer-slotter equipment at the time carton blanks are made 4, tO from the film laminated corrugated board. This treatment oxidizes the plastic surface sufficiently to enable adhesives to be operable or to fix printing inks on that surface should it be useful in the carton- making to do so.

6 t /I 7 Detailed Description of the Drawings FIG. 1 for the most part illustrates a typical corrugator for manufacture of single wall corrugated paperboard. A single face web of paper 10 is formed on a single facer in which a ply of kraft paper medium is corrugated to form cross-wise flutes in the web and joined with a web of single face liner paper. In the single facer, these webs, the corrugated medium and single face liner, are joined together by adhesive. The moisture of the paper components is controlled and the temperature thereof is adjusted through adjustable wrap arms of the single facer (not shown). The wrap arms provide a control of the heat by Hoo the span of the circumference of the heater drums the paper 0 web contacts. Moving the wrap arms changes this OS 00 circumferential distance the web runs on the heater drum.
The partially manufactured single face 10 is accumulated on moo 0 the bridge 11 of the corrugator and then over guide rollers .o 12 and 13. The first wrap arm has a roller 14 that guides .0 the single face 10 onto the heater drum 15 which is heated on its surface and typically operates at around 350 0 -375 0 F. The take-up roller 16 of the wrap arm guides the single face to the input of the double-backer glue station 18 whereat the o web 10 passes over drum 19 which is heated to control the temperature of the paper and the fluted side of single face 10 is exposed to the adhesive applied to the crests of the flutes by the roller 21 guided by roller Simultaneously, and in step with the single face web is a web of double-face liner paper 22 supplied continuously to the roller 23 of the wrap arm apparatus and over the heater drum 24 then past the guide roller 25. The temperature of the double-face liner is controlled by the T 4 r a at Ct I 4..r span of circumferential contact it has with drum 24.
Typically, the heater drum for the double-backer liner paper is operated at 350 0 -375 0 F. Next, web 22 enters the doublebacker glue stand 18 and passes under heater drum 47 controlled for heat exposure by the wrap arm.
Both the single face web 10 and double-face liner 22 enter the drying section 27 of the corrugator. The paper is held on the hct plates in section 27 by the double-backer belt 28 that is driven in the direction shown (by arrows on FIG. 1) by the end pulleys 29, 30. The belt 28 maintains pressure on the joined webs of paper that will make up the single wall corrugated product.
In the present invention, a super structure 32 extends
C
above the double-backer belt and supports a roll stand 33 for c the rolls of plastic film 34a and 34b. The roll stand is preferably constructed to support one active roll of the film S 34a and a standby roll 34b in known fashion. As the supply of plastic runs out on the active roll, the standby roll 34b S is spliced into the web. Either roll, when active, is 20 rotated about a horizontal axis and controlled by an air brake to regulate the tension in the film during feeding the film web. The film 32 extends over a turning bar 35 and onto spreader roll 36. Film leaving the spreader roll 36 is laid in intimate contact with the top (exterior) surface of the single face liner paper and pressed into contact by the double-backer at the nip N of the double-backer between belt 28 and hot plates of drying section 27.
The spreader roll 36 is surfaced with rubber and grooved in counter-rotating spirals 36a and 36b (FIG. 3) that extend from the lateral center of the roll toward the opposite ends.
Spreader rolls of this type are also available made with i i c-.
j 1 :r 4 Op 4*4 44 0 0 44 4 4 4444 *4 4 4 4 4 44 0 *0 4 4 440 44).
metal surfaces and grooved in a similar fashion. The spreader roll is mounted on a transverse center shaft 36c that allows free rotation of the roll by engaging the film L web moving over it. The spirals 36a and 36b remove wrinkles in the film, working any wrinkle of the film toward the opposite lateral outer edges. An example of such a spreader roller is manufactured by American Roller Company and sold under the trademark "Arco Stretcher". The turning bar roll (FIG. 1) provides required amount of film wrap over the spreader roll 36 for dewrinkling the film by the sr-eader 4 roll. In the example of spreader roll used in the process, the spiral grooves are approximately 1/16 inch to 3/32 inch wide. The spirals emanating in either direction from the center zone of the roll are parallel and about 3/4 inch !15 apart. The turning bar roll 35 position may be in an adjustable support for this purpose and may be coupled with idlers for the sufficient amount of wrap to accomplish the dewrinkling step on the film web as it moves into contact with the single face liner 10 at the nip N between the double-backer belt 28 and the single face web 10 upon entry to the drying section 27.
In the corrugator, the single face liner preheat drum and the double-backer steam chests in the heaters 24 and 27 provide the heat in the single face liner required for lamination of the film 32 with the single face liner paper of web 10, and the double-backer belt 28 and weight rollers 39 provide the necessary pressure for laminating the film onto the paper.
As shown on FIG. 1, the joined film and corrugated move through drying section 27 over which the double-backer belt 28 is reeved and driven toward the exit from the corrugator.

I;
Weight rollers 39 cooperate and roll on the top side of belt 28 to supply pressure, as was mentioned. A cooling section 38 extends to the rear of the corrugator. An optional surface treating apparatus 40 is positioned in the path of the combined web. Thereafter, the web moves over the lead in table 41 to the slitter-scorer 42 and then to the cut-off knives and the stackers (not shown) where the finished board is deposited onto stacks.
The lamination by this method does not require excess pressure in the nip of the double-backer which might otherwise deform or crush the corrugations or tear the corrugation from its adhesive attachment to the single face liner paper. The nip pressures in the double-backer of this process are the same as used in normal corrugator operation 1 5 for making double-backed single wall corrugated paperboard.
The apparatus 40 is a Corona discharge unit. As an alternative, a high velocity flame system may be used in its place. Either device is known in use today and is used in S the present invention for oxidizing the exposed surface of the film on the combined web for promoting adhesion of Saqueous adhesives used later in fabricating cartons or like articles from the board product.
The film used in the above-described corrugating method is a co-extruded coated plastic film, which has a heat seal layer capable of being activated at temperatures produced in the paper in the double-backing phase of the corrugating operation. Supplemental heat, if required, may be added in the double-backer operation just prior to the corrugated components' entering the drying section 27.
An example of the film is a co-extruded High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) combination with Ethylene Acrylic Acid

(EAA) in the heat seal layer of the film. Dow Chemical Company, Midland, Michigan, manufactures and markets its film numbers XO-66300.14, XO-66300.27, XU-66320.01 and XO- 66300.11, which have the aforementioned properties and are satisfactory for use in the method. Additional films of this type are available and may be suitable for use in the method, e.g. co-extruded Polypropylene (PP) film and EAA, or a Polyester (PET) film coated with EAA.
The plastic film of Dow Chemical Company used in the process, as per example, and identified by product number S comprise a co-extruded polyethylene and copolymer of ethylene and acrylic acid; polymer content clear in color, S however, may be used in various colors produced by available dyes and pigments. The MVTR rate for XO 66300.11 film, S 5 mil thick, is 0.5 gm per 100 square inches per 24 hour.
Temperature resistance is in the 240 0 -250 0 F range.
The films preferably are in the range of 1 3 mil thickness for satisfactory moisture vapor transmission rates (MVTR) and for conservation of material and cost competitiveness. Such film, as given in the above examples, eliminates cracking at tne box scores and folds. The films contemplated for use in this invention do not rub off or flake off onto or co-mingle with packaged product. The materials of the examples given are FDA and USDA approved for use in direct contact with food product in their use in packaging such products.
Typical corrugator operating conditions for laminating the co-extruded film, such as Dow Chemical XO-66300.14 film of HDPE and EAA, in which the specific heat seal layer activation temperature is approximately 190 0 F. occurs in the corrugator running at a 210 0 -220 0 F. single face liner surface 11 'i temperature at the double-backer nip (see reference po.in.t N on FIGS. 3 and In the examples of materials given, the heat seal layer's activation temperature will be in the rainqu of 180 0 -220 0 F. This temperature range is maintained within the drying section 27 of the double-backer as well. Using a 42 lb. liner paper on the single face and double-back liner, making C flute corrugated, the 1 3 mil range of film is applied to the web at corrugator speed of approximately 450 feet per minute production speed. The result is good film lamination and good board quality under the conditions rr indicated.
The board product produced by this mathod is formed into f V, blanks from which 'cartons are manufactured, such as is C C XI r I illustrated on FIGS. 5 and 6. The carton blank 50 of FIG. has the film laminate disposed on the surface that will become the interior of the carton. Areas of the film including areas to be adhesively sealed in the carton, are treated with Corona discharge or high velocity, oxidizing flame treatment to allow usual aqueous adhesives used in carton fabrication to successfully adhere the plastic film ct It surface of the corrugated to an adjacent liner paper surface.
~tt '~Typically, these surface areas are at the tab 51 for making a manufactures joint, the upper flaps 52 and 53 for adhesively sealing the top of the carton, and the bottom flaps 54 and for sealing the bottom of the carton.
Carton constructions of this, or other general types, are used to package meat and poultry in bulk, viscous products such as soft drink syrups, and household chemical products, such as those requiring some hygroscopic protection, e.g. dry detergents.
Some uses of corrugated products with good MVTR require 124 multiwall corrugated board, such as double-wall corrugated or triple wall corr ugated. These products may be made using the present invention. one example of a multiwall corrugated board manufacture is illustrated on FIGS. 2 and 4. The same or similar parts and components are described using the same reference numerals as were used in the descriptions on the embodiment of FIGS. 1 and 3.
In producing a double-wall corrugated board, two single face webs 37 and 10 are supplied. In this instance, the web 37 is stored on a web bridge 39 and reeved around heating drum 40 and over its wrap arm 41. The intermediate single face web has glue applied by the applicator 42 after the web passes the heater drum 43. After applying adhesive to the flutes of web 37, it moves directly to nip N of the doublebacker and the drying section 27. The upper single face web is stored on the web bridge 11 and from there travels *a a. around heater drum 15 controlled by its wrap arm 16; then to the heater drum 19 and through applicator 21 for placing 4 9 adhesive on the flutes of this single face web. After applying adhesive, web 10 enters nip N of the double-backer o'~and is joined with single face web 37. Simultaneously, double-backer liner web 22 is supplied over heater drum 24 and to the heater drum 47 of the double-backer glue station 18'. Film 32 is supplied by the roll 34a over the turning bar roller 35 and the spreader roller 36 for dewrinkling.
The film 32 is laminated to the top surface of the single face web 10 just as the film 32, the upper single face web intermediate single face web 37 and the double-back liner paper. 22 all merge as they pass through nip N of the doublebacker, whereat the belt 28 and the weights 39 apply pressure to laminate the layers into a double-wall corrugated board 13 having the film layer 32 laminated on the upper surface. Ine board produced is next processed, heated and cooled in the sections 27 and 38 of the corrugator, as previously described, and surface treated by Corona discharge or oxidizing flame at the device (such as shown at 40 on FIG.
then cut to lengths from the web and placed in stacks, as was previously described.
Having described operating embodiments of the process of the invention and the product produced thereby, the process and product of the process may be modified within the scope of the invention of the appended claims.
