Abstract

This invention provides oriented plastics film packaging which has easy directional control of opening and is reclosable. One aspect of the invention is a laminate which comprises: (i) a film of high density polyethylene laminated to (ii) an oriented web wherein (i) is biaxially oriented such that the ratio of the deformation ratio in the transverse direction to the deformation ratio in the machine direction is greater than 1.

Description

"ORIENTED HDPE LAMINATES FOR EASY DIRECTIONAL OPENING"
This invention relates to oriented high density polyethylene (HDPE) laminates; more particularly, the present invention relates to such laminates used to fabricate bags which possess both easy directional opening and reclosability.
Oriented plastics films currently enjoy a substantial share of the packaging market, especially of perishable goods such as comestibles. However, bags made with such films on vertical form, fill and seal (VFFS) and horizontal form, fill and seal (HFFS) packaging machines have hermetic seals; and these seals often present the consumer with difficulty of access to the product. Attempts to overcome this difficulty include precut systems at the top transverse direction (TD) seal which allow the consumer to initiate a tear in the package; but often with biaxially oriented film, the propagation of the tear is uncontrolled and results in destruction of the bag; jettison of product; and consumer dissatisfaction.
Other attempts include tear tape systems which can give a measure of directional control to the propagation of the tear but still result in bag destruction; furthermore, it is often the consumer's experience that the tape itself ruptures.
This invention seeks to provide oriented plastics film packaging which not only provides the consumer with easy directional control of opening but also is reclosable. Accordingly, therefore, to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a laminate which comprises:
(i) a film of high density polyethylene laminated to (ii) an oriented web wherein (i) is biaxially oriented such that the ratio of the deformation ratio in the transverse direction (DRTD) to the deformation ratio in the machine direction (DRMD) is greater than 1.
In accordance with a further aspect of this invention, there is also provided the use of a film of high density polyethylene which is biaxially oriented such that the ratio of the deformation ratio in the transverse direction (DRTD) to the deformation ratio in the machine direction (DRMD) is greater than 1, laminated to an oriented web, to provide propagation control along the transverse direction of the high density polyethylene. The biaxially oriented high density polyethylene films used in the laminates of this invention are prepared using high density polyethylene (HDPE) having a density of at least 0.94, preferably at least 0.96 g/cm3. The film can be composed exclusively of a single HDPE resin, a mixture of HDPE resins, or of HDPE containing up to 10 weight percent microcrystalline wax. The mixture of HDPE resins gives better processing characteristics in the extruder by reducing extruder torque. Films made with either a blend of HDPE resins or with microcrystalline wax reduce splittiness of the film which manifests itself as the tendency of the film to break in the TD during operation on VFFS machinery.
The blends of HDPE polymers can comprise two or more polymers all of which preferably have densities of at least 0.96. Blends of HDPE polymers advantageously comprise a major proportion of HDPE having a melt index of 0.6 to 1.2 and one or more polymers having a different melt index. Terblends have been found particularly desirable. Suitable terblends generally comprise 50 to 98 weight percent, preferably 84 to 96 weight percent, of HDPE having a density of 0.96 g/cm3 or higher and a melt index of greater than 0.5 to 2.0; 1 to 25 weight percent, preferably 3 to 8 weight percent, of HDPE having a density of 0.96 g/cm3 or greater and a melt index of 0.1 to 0.5; and 1 to 25 weight percent, preferably 3 to 8 weight percent, of HDPE having a density of 0.96 g/cm3 or higher and a melt index of greater than 2 to 8. Preferably, the second and third HDPE polymers (which are minor components) are present in about equal amounts. It is highly desirable that the biaxially oriented
HDPE films used in the laminates of this invention be provided with a heat seal layer. The heat seal layer can be applied in the known manner to the HDPE, for example by coating or coextrusion before orientation or by coating the HDPE after one or both of the biaxial orientation operations.
The heat seal layer can be any of the conventional material used for this purpose in conjunction with polyolefin films particularly polyethylene films. For example ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers or ethylene- methacrylic acid salt ionomers (available from DuPont as "Surlyn") can be used. Films in which the heat seal layer is an ethylene-methacrylic acid salt ionomer have been found to be particularly useful in preparing films which are suitable for VFFS applications. The heat seal layer can comprise the heat seal resin as such or can include small amounts of other materials. For example, the relatively costly Surlyn ionomer can be mixed with small amounts of less costly materials such as low density polyethylene.
The HDPE films of this invention can include other polymer layers in addition to or instead of the heat seal layer, for example polymers having desirable barrier properties for gases such as oxygen. Examples include polymers of vinylidene chloride.
The degree of orientation of the HDPE films is an important aspect of this invention inasmuch as the proper degree of orientation provides desirable physical properties, good water vapor transmission (WVTR) characteristics and dead-fold. For example, it has been determined that the films of this invention having a thickness of 1.0 to 1.2 mils will have acceptable WVTR of less than 0.28 g-mil/100 in2/24 hr/1 atm (less than 4.34 x 10-4 g-mil/cm/24 hr/1 atm).
In the usual manner the film is heated to its orientation temperature and first subjected to MD orientation between two sets of nip rolls, the second rotating at a greater speed than the first in an amount equal to the desired draw ratio. Then the film is TD oriented by heating and subjected it to transverse stretching in a tenter frame. Typically, MD orientation is conducted at 60° to 120°C and TD orientation at 100° to 145°C. The preferred deformation ratios are from 1.1 to 2, suitably from 1.18 to 1.25 in the MD and from 6 to 12 in the TD. The oriented web (ii) may comprise an oriented plastics film or paper, preferably a biaxially oriented plastics film. The film may suitably comprise an olefin polymer, especially polypropylene.
The web may be formed and laminated to the biaxially oriented film (ii) in any known manner. The laminate may then be formed with a bag with conventional VFFS or HFFS machinery.
It is found that when utilizing a laminate in accordance with this invention in the fabrication of bags then, whatever the present system used, the propagation of the tear is always in the TD. This provides not only control of opening but also enables the consumer to utilize the lower tear edge as a pouring lip. Furthermore, the dead-fold of the oriented HDPE enables, simply by twisting or folding, the bag to be reclosed. None of these advantages is present unless the HDPE is laminated in accordance with this invention.
The following Examples illustrate the invention. Laminates were made, both in accordance with the present invention and by way of comparison, on a pilot coater.
Bags were then produced on a VFFS machine to evaluate the directional tear and reclosability. The results are shown in the following Table. The following ranking was used:
E : excellent
G : good
M : medium
F : fair
B : bad
