Description

Multilayer film for bioprocess bag and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of new materials, and particularly relates to a multilayer film for a biological process bag and application thereof.
Background
The life sciences industry is considered a high tech, high capital, and high growth industry. The global biopharmaceutical market will increase from dollars 2860 to dollars 7680 to 2030 in 2019, while the chinese biopharmaceutical market will increase from dollars 3120 to cents 13030 to 2030 in 2019. The global and chinese biopharmaceutical ratios in 2019 were 22% and 19%, respectively, whereas the figure in 2030 would reach 37% and 41%, respectively. It has been estimated that the overall market size of global biopharmaceutical equipment plus consumables is around $200 billion, increased by over 10%, with equipment accounting for about 46% and consumables accounting for about 54%.
The disposable bag is used as an important consumable of a biopharmaceutical enterprise, and comprises a liquid storage bag, a liquid preparation bag, a cell reaction bag and the like, and is mainly used in the biopharmaceutical process procedures of culture medium preparation, buffer solution preparation, cell culture, stock solution filling and the like.
The multi-layer film is used as a core raw material of the disposable bag, and the multi-layer film is assembled with other accessories such as pipelines, joints and the like into a complete bag through a welding process. In the welding process of the two multi-layer films, the inner surfaces of the two films are required to be attached together, then the films are placed into constant temperature heat welding or pulse welding equipment, and the inner surfaces of the two films are melted and fused into a whole through heat transfer under the action of pressure, so that the welding edge of the disposable bag is formed. Where the welded edge is weak as a disposable bag, sufficient strength is required to reduce the risk of leakage of the bag due to the greater pressure of the internal liquid on the welded edge during use. During the welding process, only the inner surface of the film is allowed to melt, while the outer surface of the film is not melted, otherwise, the outer surface is melted and deformed and attached to the welding mold, thereby causing damage to the appearance of the bag and reduction in the strength of the weld edge. In addition, in the bag making process of the multilayer film, some bag-type local parts need four layers of multilayer films to be welded simultaneously, and two welding edges are formed simultaneously at the moment; in this process, there may be a case where the outer surface of one film is in contact with the outer surface of the other film, and if the outer surfaces of the multi-layered films are melted during the welding process, the outer surfaces of the two films may be bonded together, so that the two films may be torn apart if the weight is low, but there may be a risk of surface defects and insufficient strength, and the outer surfaces of the two films may be difficult to tear apart if the weight is high, thereby causing the bag to be scrapped. Therefore, the formulation and structural design of the multilayer film is extremely critical to ensure that the outer surface of the film does not melt during the welding process of the multilayer film, thereby not introducing significant appearance defects and potential leakage risks to the bag. The prior art has no relatively mature technical scheme and can be adjusted according to limited experience.
The biopharmaceutical process bag has very strict requirements on membrane materials, and has very strict requirements on dissolution, water resistance, solvent resistance, bending resistance, puncture resistance, barrier property and the like of the membrane. If the disposable bag is repeatedly bent, punctured by foreign objects, or even falls into bags in the process of bag making, transportation and use, the bag body is inevitably damaged to different degrees, and thus larger leakage risk is possibly brought. Considering the purity, irradiation resistance and extrusion processability of the raw materials comprehensively, polyethylene will be the preferred material for preparing the outermost layer of the film. Therefore, the main material of disposable bags for biotechnology on the market is mostly polyethylene or a combination with polyolefin elastomer. However, the larger temperature difference between the inner and outer layers determines that the melting temperature of the polyethylene of the outermost layer is high enough, and means that the density and modulus of the outermost layer are larger, so that the rigidity of the whole film is improved, and the flexibility is reduced. This can significantly reduce certain mechanical properties of the film material, such as impact resistance, rub resistance, etc., and make it difficult to meet the integrity of the bag under extreme conditions. For example, when the bag is used at a client, the bag body is repeatedly rubbed due to the unfolding or the installation of the bag, or the bag filled with liquid falls from a certain height during the operation of a person, and if the flexibility and the impact resistance of the bag body film are insufficient, the risk of liquid leakage is extremely high. In the prior art, in order to obtain a film with better toughness, it is generally necessary to use Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE, ultra low density polyethylene). The special membrane for the disposable bioreactor disclosed in CN109677071A comprises an ultralow-density polyethylene layer arranged on the innermost layer of a membrane body, a low-density polyethylene layer arranged on the outermost layer, an ethylene/vinyl alcohol copolymer layer arranged in the middle of the membrane body and an adhesive layer arranged between two adjacent layers. The multilayer film disclosed in CN104995029a comprises a core layer, and an outer layer, wherein: the outer layer and the core layer are integral with the tie layer, the core layer comprising (C) an ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer having an ethylene content of 25-48 mole percent, alone or in combination with (D) an ionomeric acid ethylene copolymer, the outer layer comprising (E) a polyolefin having a density of 0.910g/cm 3 to 0.940g/cm 3 or (F) a copolymer of ethylene and an alpha-olefin having a density of 0.870g/cm 3 to 0.910g/cm 3, or a mixture thereof, the tie layer comprising (G) a polyolefin copolymer grafted with a carboxylic acid or carboxylic acid anhydride, alone or in combination with (H) a polyolefin copolymer, while avoiding the use of polyethylene materials as the core layer. These techniques all use high amounts of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) to achieve better flexibility. High performance multilayer films are also a key technology limiting our biological development.
It is a very challenging task to develop a multi-layer film for bioprocesses with sufficient toughness, impact resistance and good weldability.

In a second aspect of the invention, there is provided:
A disposable bag for biological medicine is prepared from the multi-layer film for the biological process bag.
The beneficial effects of the invention are as follows:
The multilayer films of some examples of the present invention combine excellent strength, toughness, rub resistance, puncture resistance, and high barrier properties; in the bag making process, if a process of adopting 4 layers of films for simultaneous welding is involved, the outer surfaces among the films can not be bonded, and the welding strength of the obtained 2 welding edges can be ensured to be firm, so that the harsh requirements of the biopharmaceutical process on the disposable bag are met.
The multilayer films of some examples of the present invention employ a blend of polyolefin elastomer D having a density of 0.890 to 0.915 g/cm 3 with polyolefin elastomer E having a density of 0.860 to 0.889 g/cm 3. The polyolefin elastomer D is softer, has lower melting temperature and better heat-sealing welding performance. The polyolefin elastomer E has better flexibility and lower melting temperature compared with the polyolefin elastomer D, and can be welded at lower temperature; however, its tackiness is relatively high and excessive use of the polyolefin elastomer E increases the difficulty in the film processing during production. Therefore, it is necessary to scientifically match the ratio of the polyolefin elastomer D and the polyolefin elastomer E in the innermost layer of the multilayer film, so that the melting temperature of the innermost layer is low, and the viscosity is not too high to affect the production; in addition, the overall feel and softness of the multilayer film can also be adjusted by the ratio of polyolefin elastomer D to polyolefin elastomer E.
The outermost layer of the multilayer films of some examples of the present invention employs a blend of polyethylene A having a density of 0.900 to 0.938 g/cm 3 and polyethylene B having a density of 0.939 to 0.964 g/cm 3. Polyethylene a has a higher hardness and a higher melting temperature than the innermost layer, but the difference between them is smaller than 25 ℃, and under certain special welding process conditions the outermost layer is at risk of melting. Therefore, polyethylene B with higher density is needed to further increase the melting temperature of the outermost layer, so that the difference between the melting temperatures of the outermost layer and the innermost layer is more than 25 ℃, and the requirement of bag making is met. However, when the content of the polyethylene B is too high, the multilayer film is hard, and obvious sharp corners or folds are easy to generate in the use process; and the attaching property and shape following property of the disposable bag to the external environment in the using process can be affected, so that the process difficulty in the using process of the bag can be increased. Therefore, the proportion of polyethylene A and polyethylene B of the outermost layer of the multilayer film needs to be scientifically matched, so that the melting temperature of the outermost layer is higher, and the melting temperature difference between the outermost layer and the innermost layer is more than 25 ℃, thereby effectively widening the temperature window for bag making welding; meanwhile, the hardness of the outermost layer is reasonably controlled, and the final hand feeling of the film and the adhesion of the disposable bag to the outside in the use process are not affected.
The multilayer films of some examples of the present invention have a elastomeric layer that employs a blend of a styrenic block copolymer having a C styrene content of 50% to 80% and a polyolefin elastomer having a D density of 0.890 to 0.915 g/cm 3. The styrene block copolymer C is a styrene-butadiene copolymer obtained by copolymerizing styrene and butadiene. The presence of the butadiene block imparts excellent toughness and impact resistance to the copolymer. Meanwhile, the styrene block content is more than 50%, so that the overall processability of the copolymer is obviously improved. But the multilayer film is prepared from materials of different layers through different extruders and multilayer coextrusion processes; in order to obtain a film with uniform and stable interlayer distribution and excellent appearance, it is necessary to ensure good matching of the flowability between layers of different materials. If 100% of the styrene-based block copolymer C is used as the material of the elastic layer, excellent flow matching with other layers is difficult to achieve, and the polyolefin elastomer D needs to be added to further improve the flow matching between the elastic layer and the other layers, so that the appearance and quality stability of the obtained film product are ensured. Therefore, it is required to scientifically match the ratio of the styrene-based block copolymer C and the polyolefin elastomer D of the elastic layer of the multilayer film, not only to match the fluidity of the elastic layer during extrusion processing with other layers, but also to impart excellent toughness, impact resistance and rub resistance to the multilayer film.
In summary, the average melting temperature difference between the innermost layer material and the outermost layer material of the multilayer film is 20 ℃, preferably more than 25 ℃, so that the innermost layer material can be well welded into a whole in the welding process, and the outermost layer material cannot be melted, thereby greatly widening the welding temperature window in the bag making process, reducing the difficulty of the bag making process and greatly improving the reliability of the bag body. Meanwhile, the existence of the elastic layer endows the multilayer film with excellent toughness and impact strength, so that the prepared disposable bag is more reliable and can bear challenges brought to the bag body by some extreme operating conditions.

Detailed Description

By adjusting the formulation of the innermost and outermost polyethylene materials, satisfactory results are obtained. The other functional layers are further combined to obtain the multi-layer film for the biological process bag with excellent performance.
In a first aspect of the invention, there is provided:

The melting temperature of the polymer is often a range of values, and in the present invention, the average melting temperature refers to the mathematical average of the upper and lower temperatures within the range.

Styrenic block copolymers are a class of thermoplastic elastomers that have excellent elastic properties, and are very excellent in stretchability, puncture resistance, rub resistance, and the like after being formed into films, as compared to most polyethylene materials.

2) The outermost layer of comparative example 1 was free of polyethylene material having a density of 0.939 to 0.964 g/cm 3, resulting in a lower average melting temperature of the outermost layer of the film, which caused the four films to adhere to each other and not separate from each other between the outer surfaces of the films in contact when subjected to the four heat-seal process, thereby resulting in rejection of the bag.
3) The outermost layer in comparative example 2 contains no polyethylene material with a density of 0.900-0.938 g/cm 3, but only contains polyethylene material with a density of 0.939-0.964 g/cm 3 and high rigidity, so that the whole film is hard, obvious crease and whitening phenomena are easy to generate after multiple folio, and the crease is prone to cracking. Therefore, the bending of the bag body can easily lead the film to generate sharp angles and folds in the processing and using processes of the disposable bag, thereby causing local defects and bringing potential leakage risks.
4) The structure of comparative example 3 does not contain an elastic layer, so that the mechanical properties such as tensile property, kneading property, impact resistance and the like of the film are obviously lower than those of examples 1 to 6. And the repeated bending performance of the film is also significantly affected. Eventually rendering it unsatisfactory for use in certain situations.
5) The elastic layer in comparative example 4 contains no styrene block copolymer with 50-80% of styrene content, so that the mechanical properties of the film, such as tensile property, kneading property, impact resistance and the like, are obviously lower than those of examples 1-6. And the repeated bending performance of the film is also significantly affected. Eventually rendering it unsatisfactory for use in certain situations.
6) The elastic layer in comparative example 5 does not contain polyolefin elastomer with density of 0.890-0.915 g/cm 3, so that the processing performance of the elastic layer and other layers is not matched, and finally the appearance of the film is uneven, obvious and irregular lines and other appearance defects exist, further the mechanical property of the film is possibly reduced, and the use requirement cannot be met.
The above description of the present invention is further illustrated in detail and should not be taken as limiting the practice of the present invention. It is within the scope of the present invention for those skilled in the art to make simple deductions or substitutions without departing from the concept of the present invention.
