Description
Priority
The present application claims priority from U.S. Ser. No. 62/964,198 submitted at 22/1/2020.
Technical Field
The present application relates to paperboard structures, and more particularly, to heat sealable paperboard structures that have no or minimal tendency to block.
Background
Paperboard is used in a variety of packaging applications. For example, coated unbleached paperboard is used in packaging beverage containers, frozen foods, cereals and a wide variety of other food and non-food consumer products. Other forms of bleached and unbleached coated paperboard are used in various packaging options for food service and consumer goods.
Sustainability is one of the key driving forces in developing new packages for food and non-food consumer products. Paperboard structures coated with aqueous coatings are generally considered repulpable and recyclable and are therefore more sustainable than paperboard coated with extruded Low Density Polyethylene Extrudates (LDPE). However, most polymers in aqueous coatings are amorphous and do not have a melting point like LDPE. Thus, during the production, storage, transportation or processing of aqueous coated paperboard, the binder or polymer in the aqueous coating often softens or becomes tacky at high temperatures (even at, for example, 120-130°f) and/or pressures, thereby causing blocking problems in the coated paperboard, which typically does not occur in practical applications for polyethylene coated paperboard.
Furthermore, due to the high adhesive level and thus the hot tack, the aqueous heat sealable barrier coating cannot withstand the calendering temperatures typically used to smooth the coating surface. Blocking (the tendency of layers in a paperboard roll to block each other) at elevated temperatures and pressures is also a major technical challenge in the production and processing of waterborne heat sealable barrier coated paperboard. This blocking problem becomes more critical for waterborne heat-sealable barrier coated paperboard, which requires high barrier properties and which also needs to be able to be heat sealed in process packages such as cups.
Accordingly, those skilled in the art continue to research and develop in the field of heat sealable barrier paperboard structures using aqueous coatings.
Disclosure of Invention
Heat sealable paperboard structures are disclosed that have no or minimal blocking tendency.
In one example, the disclosed heat-sealable paperboard structure includes a paperboard substrate including a first major face and a second major face opposite the first major face, a heat-sealable barrier coating on the first major face of the paperboard substrate, and a top coating positioned on the heat-sealable barrier coating, wherein the top coating forms a discontinuous layer on the heat-sealable barrier coating.
Also disclosed are methods for making heat sealable paperboard structures having no or minimal tendency to blocking.
In one example, the disclosed method for manufacturing a heat sealable paperboard structure includes the steps of: (1) preparing a heat-sealable barrier coating formulation comprising an adhesive and a pigment, (2) applying the heat-sealable barrier coating formulation to the first major face of the paperboard substrate, (3) preparing a top coating formulation comprising an adhesive and a pigment, and (4) applying the top coating formulation to the heat-sealable barrier coating to form a discontinuous layer of the top coating on the heat-sealable barrier coating.
Other examples of the disclosed heat sealable paperboard structures and methods will become apparent from the following detailed description, drawings, and appended claims.

Detailed Description
It has now been found that a heat sealable paperboard-based structure having a first major surface with high water blocking properties and minimal non-blocking tendency can be achieved by positioning a heat sealable barrier coating on the first major surface of a base paperboard substrate that conventionally forms the first major surface of the structure, under a low adhesive, calenderable top coat applied as a discontinuous layer on (e.g., directly applied to) the barrier coating such that the heat sealable barrier coating is positioned between the paperboard substrate and the top coat. The heat sealability is provided by the heat sealable barrier coating. Such a structure may be particularly suitable for preserving cold beverages (e.g., ice soft drinks), cold foods (e.g., ice cream), hot beverages (e.g., coffee), and hot foods (e.g., soups).
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, one example of a disclosed paperboard-based container, generally designated 10, may include a side wall 12 having an upper end 14 and a lower end 16, and a bottom wall 18 connected (e.g., heat sealed) to the lower end 16 of the side wall 12, thereby defining an interior volume 20 within the container 10. The upper end 14 of the sidewall 12 may define an opening 22 to the interior volume 20. Optionally, the upper end 14 of the sidewall 12 may additionally include a lip 24 (e.g., a rolled lip), such as for securing a lid (not shown) or the like to the container 10.
Although the container 10 is illustrated in fig. 1 as a tall cup (e.g., a 12 ounce, 16 ounce, 21 ounce, or 24 ounce disposable take-away cup) having a frustoconical sidewall 12, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the disclosed container 10 may be formed in a variety of shapes, sizes, and configurations and may be formed with fewer or more walls than the above-described sidewalls and bottom walls 12, 18 without departing from the scope of the present disclosure.
As shown in fig. 2, the side walls 12 of the container 10 may be assembled from a blank 30 (fig. 3), which blank 30 has been cut to a desired profile and then wrapped around a mandrel (not shown). When the blank 30 is wrapped around the mandrel, the first end 32 of the blank 30 overlaps the second end 34 of the blank 30, and the overlapping ends 32, 34 may be joined (e.g., by heat sealing) to define a seam 36 extending from the upper end 14 to the lower end 16 of the side wall 12. Once the side wall 12 has been assembled, the bottom wall 18 may be attached (e.g., heat sealed) to the lower end 16 of the side wall 12, thereby creating the container 10.
Referring to fig. 4, the side wall 12 of the container 10 may be formed from a paperboard structure 40 having a first major surface 42 and a second major surface 44. The first major surface 42 of the paperboard structure 40 may correspond to the interior surface 28 of the container 10. The second major surface 44 of the paperboard structure 40 may correspond to the outer surface 26 of the container 10.
The paperboard structure 40 may be a layered structure that includes a paperboard substrate 46 having a first major face 48 and a second major face 50. The heat-sealable barrier coating 52 and the top coating 54 may be applied to the first major face 48 of the paperboard substrate 46 such that the top coating 54 forms a discontinuous layer 56 on (e.g., immediately adjacent to) the heat-sealable barrier coating 52. The heat sealable barrier coating 52 may be positioned between the top coating 54 and the paperboard substrate 46. The discontinuous layer 56 of the top coat 54 may at least partially define the first major surface 42 of the paperboard structure 40, and thus the inner surface 28 of the container 10.
In this regard, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various additional layers, barrier layers, or non-barrier layers may be incorporated into the paperboard structure 40 between the paperboard substrate 46 and the discontinuous layer 56, or on top of the second major face 50, without departing from the scope of this disclosure. In one variation, as shown in fig. 5, the paperboard structure 40 ' may include a primer layer 45 between the paperboard substrate 46 ' and the heat sealable barrier coating 52 '. In another variation, as shown in fig. 5, the heat sealable paperboard structure 40 may include a primer layer 47 on the second major face 50 of the paperboard substrate 46'. In yet another variation, as shown in fig. 5, the paperboard structure 40 may include a first primer layer 45 between the paperboard substrate 46 'and the heat sealable barrier coating 52' and a second primer layer 47 on the second major face 50 of the paperboard substrate 46.
Referring back to fig. 4, the paperboard substrate 46 of the paperboard structure 40 may be (or may include) any cellulosic material capable of being coated with a heat sealable barrier coating 52 and a top coating 54. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the paperboard substrate 46 may be bleached or unbleached. Examples of suitable paperboard substrates include corrugated medium, linerboard, solid Bleached Sulfate (SBS), and unbleached kraft paper.
The paperboard substrate 46 may have an uncoated basis weight of at least about 50 pounds per 3000 ft 2. In one expression, the paperboard substrate 46 may have an uncoated basis weight ranging from about 60 pounds per 3000 ft 2 to about 400 pounds per 3000 ft 2. In another expression, the paperboard substrate 46 may have an uncoated basis weight ranging from about 80 pounds per 3000 ft 2 to about 300 pounds per 3000 ft 2. In another expression, the paperboard substrate 46 may have an uncoated basis weight ranging from about 90 lbs/3000 ft 2 to about 250 lbs/3000 ft 2. In yet another expression, the paperboard substrate 46 may have an uncoated basis weight ranging from about 100 pounds per 3000 ft 2 to about 200 pounds per 3000 ft 2.
Further, the paperboard substrate 46 may have a caliper (thickness) ranging, for example, from about 4 points to about 30 points (0.004 inch to 0.030 inch). In one expression, the caliper ranges from about 8 points to about 24 points. In another expression, the caliper ranges from about 12 points to about 20 points.
One specific non-limiting example of a suitable paperboard substrate 46 is 13-point SBS cup blank (SBS cupstock) manufactured by WestRock company, atlanta, georgia. Another specific non-limiting example of a suitable paperboard substrate 46 is a 16.5 point SBS cup blank manufactured by WestRock company. Another specific non-limiting example of a suitable paperboard substrate 46 is an 18-point SBS cup blank manufactured by WestRock company.
The heat sealable barrier coating 52 may be applied to the first major face 48 of the paperboard substrate 46 using any suitable method, such as one or more coaters, either on a paper machine or as an off-machine coater. When heated, the heat seal coating provides adhesion to other areas of the product that are in contact therewith.

The formulation was applied at different coat weights to 16.5 point solid bleached sulfate cup blanks having basis weights of 175 pounds per 3000 square feet. The heat sealable barrier coating formulation was applied to the felt side of the paperboard substrate using a knife coater. The top coat formulation was again applied to the heat sealable barrier coating using a knife coater to produce a two-layer coating on the felt side of the paperboard substrate. Examples and experimental results (Parker print surface smoothness; water puffer; coffee puffer; blocking grade; and heat sealability) are shown in Table 5.
TABLE 5
。
Thus, the use of a discontinuous layer of top coat on the heat sealable barrier coating of the paperboard structure provides a smooth surface as shown by Parker print surface (PPS-10S) smoothness results measured according to TAPPI Standard T555. All examples of the disclosed heat sealable paperboard structures exhibit PPS smoothness of 3 microns or less.
In addition to high smoothness, these examples also surprisingly demonstrate excellent barrier properties as demonstrated by the 30 minute water-puffer result measured according to TAPPI standard T441 om-04. For most cases, the additional discontinuous layer of the top coat improves or at least maintains the water blocking properties of the underlying heat sealable barrier coating 52. All examples had a 30 minute water-bob rating of less than 10 g/m 2, many below 4 g/m 2.
The hot coffee variant of the puffer test was also used to evaluate the water resistance of the examples shown in table 5. The test was performed by replacing 23 ℃ water with 90 ℃ coffee, but otherwise conforming to TAPPI standard T441 om-04. The coffee used was obtained by moderately preparing a mixed ground coffee by brewing 36g of starbucks with 1100 mL distilled water in a 12 cup mr. Coffee machine. All examples shown in table 5 have a 90 ℃ coffee puffer rating of less than 15 g/m 2 after 30 minutes, most less than 10 g/m 2 after 30 minutes.
The heat sealability of the coated samples of table 5 was evaluated on a PMC (paper machine company) cup machine, PMC-1250 model, by using each of these samples as the sidewall of the cup and a control bottom blank for all cups. All cups were successfully formed and the percentage of fiber tear over the seam area upon tearing the heat sealed sidewall seam was estimated. A high fiber tear percentage means better heat sealability. Samples 1 and 2 both exhibited 100% fiber tear, similar to the control sample without the discontinuous layer of the top coat, and samples 3 and 4 also exhibited 95% excellent fiber tear.
Finally, the blocking rating (50 ℃ C./60 psi/24 hours) was less than 3.0 for all samples, actually less than 2.1, and less than 1.0 for one sample. Table 6 defines the adhesion test rating system.
TABLE 6
Grade | Description of the invention |
0 | Sample breaks without any applied force |
1 | The sample had slight tackiness, but separated without fiber tearing |
2 | The samples were highly viscous but separated without fiber tearing |
3 | The sample was tacky and up to 25% of the fiber torn or coating damaged (based on area) |
4 | Samples have more than 25% fiber tear or coating failure (based on area) |
The blocking behavior of the samples was tested by evaluating the adhesion between the barrier coated side and the other uncoated side. Fig. 8 shows a simplified illustration of a blocking test. The cardboard was cut into square samples of 2 inches by 2 inches. Several replicates were tested for each condition, with each replicate evaluating adhesion between a pair of samples 252, 254. (e.g., if four copies were tested, four pairs (eight pieces) would be used). Each pair is positioned such that the "barrier coated" face of one piece 252 contacts the uncoated face of the other piece 254. These pairs are placed in stack 250 with a spacer 256 between adjacent pairs, which is foil, release paper or even copy paper. The entire sample stack is placed into the test device 200 shown in fig. 8.
The test apparatus 200 includes a frame 210. The adjustment knob 212 is attached to a screw 214 threaded through a frame top 216. The lower end of the screw 214 is attached to a plate 218, the plate 218 being carried on a heavy coil spring 220. The lower end of the spring 220 is carried on a plate 222, the area of the lower surface 224 of the plate 222 being 1 square inch. The scale 226 enables a user to read the applied force (which is equal to the pressure applied to the sample stack through the one square inch lower surface 224).
Sample stack 250 is placed between lower surface 224 and frame bottom 228. Knob 212 is tightened until scale 226 reads the force required of 100 pounds force (100 psi applied to the sample) or 60 pounds force (60 psi applied to the sample). High pressures, such as 1000 psi, are achieved by reducing the lower surface area 224 of the contact sample stack 250 to 0.11 square inches with a 110 pound applied force. The entire device 200 including the sample was then placed in an oven at 50 ℃ for 24 hours or 2 hours. The device 200 is then removed from the test environment and cooled to room temperature. The pressure was then released and the sample was removed from the device.
The tackiness and blocking of the samples were evaluated by separating each pair of cardboard sheets. Blocking damage is visible as fiber tearing, which typically occurs when the fibers are pulled from the non-blocking surface of sample 254, if present. Damage to the printed coating may also exhibit blocking if the non-blocking surface is coated with the printed coating.
For example, as symbolically depicted in fig. 8, samples 252 (0)/254 (0) may represent a "0" scale (no blocking). The circular shape in the sample indicates an approximate area under pressure, for example, about one square inch of the entire sample. Samples 252 (3)/254 (3) may represent a "3" blocking rating with fiber tear of up to 25% in the pressed area, particularly on the uncoated surface of sample 254 (3). Samples 252 (4)/254 (4) may represent a "4" blocking rating with fiber tear exceeding 25%, particularly in the uncoated surface of sample 254 (4). The depiction in fig. 8 is meant only to approximately suggest the percent damage to such test samples, rather than to show the actual appearance of the sample.
While various examples of the disclosed heat sealable paperboard structure and method have been shown and described, modifications may occur to those skilled in the art upon reading the specification. The application includes such modifications and is limited only by the scope of the claims.
