Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE

A laminate combination useful, for example, as a gastight and heat insulating wrapper, is made by applying a peelable first lacquer layer to a carrier foil, applying a metal layer to the first lacquer layer, applying a second lacquer layer to the metal layer, bonding the composite web formed of the carrier foil, the first and second lacquer layers and the metal layer to one face of a paper web by means of an adhesive layer sandwiched between the second lacquer layer and the paper web and removing the carrier foil from the first lacquer layer. The invention is distinguishable from the prior art particularly by the application of the airtight and heat insulating second lacquer layer.

Description

~5~

The invention relates to a method for producing a laminate combination of paper and at least one lacquer layer and one metal layer.
In the prior art, two methods are known to provide papers with metallic surfaces. According to the one method, aluminum is laminated to paper by means of a dry or wet laminating process. If required, a wax laminating process may also be employed. This process is expensive and does not produce a highly glossy mirror effect. The material produced in this way is very stiff which is a great impediment for further processing.
Further difficulties arise in the use of labels made of such a laminate combination. They can be removed from the labelled objects only by means of very strong leaching solutions so that, for example, strong leaching solutions must be used to further process reusable bottles.
In the other process, papers are often used on which a prepared lacquer layer is metallized. The metallization is effected in a vacuum of at least 5 to 10 4 of. In order to produce such a vaccum, thick cardboards and papers must be dried to a moisture content of, for example, about 3%. This requires a considerable amount of energy. Moreover, such laminates become expensive because the lacquer layer to be applied to the dried carrier penetrates heavily into the pores of the carrier to that the lacquer of a layer which fills the pores must be applied to the carrier very thickly.
It is thereEore the object of the present invention to improve the production of a multilayer combination so that a reflecting surface is obtained with the use of the most 1 1S8~ 1 inexpensive papers.
This object is accomplished according to the invention by transferring the lacquer layer and the metal layer as a whole onto the paper in a transfer process.
The mirror effect of the metal layer in this laminate combination is independent of the consistency of the paper surface. The entire laminate combination is first built up on a carrier foil and is transferred as a unit to the paper. This method has the additional advantage that the paper need not be predried before application of the metallization. This saves considerable costs in energy, investment and time.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the present invention provides a method of making a laminate combination comprising the following steps: (a) applying a continuous peelable first lacquer layer to one face of a carrier foil of indeterminate length; (b) applying a continuous metal layer to that face of said lacquer layer which is oriented away from said carrier foil; (c) applying a continuous very thin second lacquer layer to said metal layer; (d) continuously advancing a composite web formed of the carrier foil of indeterminate length, the first and second lacquer layers and the metal layer carried on said carrier foil; (e) continuously advancing a paper web of indeterminate length; (f) bonding the advancing composite web, by means of an adhesive layer, to the entire surface of one face of the advancing paper web; and (g) removing said carrier foil from said first lacquer layer.
Further details of the invention become evident from the following detailed description and the enclosed drawings in which 11S814~

a preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated as an example.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view of a laminate before separation of the carrier foil;
Figure 2 is a schematic sketch of a system for glueing the carrier foil to the paper and subsequently separating the carrier foil; and Figure 3 is a Vi2W of the system according to Figure 2 in which the laminate is enlarged from beginning of pressing on the paper to separating the carrier foil from the coated paper.
The laminate provided for the transfer of the laminate combination essentially includes a carrier foil, preferably a polyester foil 1, a separating layer 2, which may be omitted under certain circumstances if a basic lacquer 3 is used which does not have much affinity to the carrier foil, a vacuum-deposited metal layer 4, a laminate adhesive 5, as well as a paper layer 6. The starting point of a method for producing the laminate combination is a transfer foil. This transfer foil comprises the carrier foil 1 having as glossy and reflective a surface as possible. On this carrier foil there is provided the separating layer 2 onto which in a proparatory process step the lacquer layer 3 is applied thinly. The desired metal layer 4 is then vapor-deposited thereonto in a vaccum. A second, very thin lacquer layer 4a is then applied to the metal layer 4. The second lacquer layer 4a is gas impervious and heat insulating.
The thus prepared transfer foil combination 7 is coated by means of a lacquering mechanism 8 with an adhesive 9.

.~f :~

~ 158~4 l The transfer foil 7a prepared in this manner may be dried in a drier 10 if the adhesive 9 is a dry laminate adhesive.
When a wet adhesive is employed, the drier 10 can be eliminated.
After leaving the drier 10, the transfer foil 7a is brought to a calender 11. Between the two rolls of the calender 11 the adhesive layer 9 of the transfer foil 7a is pressed together with the paper 6 so that it is tightly glued to the transfer foil combination 7 and forms a unit with it. This unit is cooled on the surface, if required, with a cooling roll 13.
After leaving the cooling roll 13, the carrier foil 1 may be separated from the lacquer 3. For further use it is wound on a reel 14. The laminate combination formed by the paper 6, the metal layer 4 and the basic lacquer 3 is wound onto another reel 15.
The separating layer 2 enhances the removal of the lacquer layer 3 from the carrier foil 1. If the lacquer layer 3 does not have a strong affinity to the carrier foil 1, this separating layer 2 need not be used.
When selecting the carrier foil 1, particular care must be taken that it has as smooth, highly glossy and reflective a surface as possible. The quality of the metal layer depends upon the quality of the surface of this foil 1. It is also possible to transfer matte effects or brush effects of the carrier foil 1 by means of the basic lacquer 3.
Dispersion adhesives and solvent adhesives can be used as adhesive 5 in the form of dry or wet adhesives; wax containing adhesives can also be used for attaching the paper layer 6.
In the selection of the basic lacquer 3 various fields , ._, ,.f 11~814 1 of application can be considered. In particular, the use of a saponifiable adhesive should be considered which can be removed during conventional cleaning processes. When the laminate is used for the production of labels, such feature may be of advantage if the labels are to be used, for example, on bottles which are suitable for reuse after cleaning. For the same reason it is of advantage to also make the lacquer layer 3 saponifiable.
Since the individual layers of the laminate produced according to the invention are very thin, the laminate is very flexible and thus easy to work with. It can be produced at relatively low material costs and is thus inexpensive.
Intermediate drying and subsequent rewetting of the carrier are not necessary.
It is also possible to use a polycarbonate foil instead of the polyester foil. The former also has a highly glossy surface and is therefore suitable for application of the lacquer and metal layers 3,4. Moreover, it is conceivable to apply the adhesive 5, as a departure from the showing in Figure 2, not to the metal layer 4 but to the paper 6. In this case, the lacquering mechanism 8 and possibly the drier 10 must be disposed in the path of the paper web 6.
