Description

A HOSE FILM ON THE BASIS OF POLYAMIDES Branch of the invention
The invention concerns to hose films on the basis of polyamides and can be used for production of the orientated in two axis hose film to be used in manufacture of paste Uke and viscous products which may be subjected to heat treatment in temperature range 70-125° C. The invention concerns in particular, to manufacturing of a hose film for production of sausages, and also of processed cheeses, packed in the form of sausage, which are packing up as a rule, in softened state or viscous-liquid state. Background of the invention
There is the plenty of kinds of a polymeric film, used in manufacture of paste like or of packed up processed products.
Composition for reception of a coat for sausages includes polycaprolactone with molecular weight in the range 1000-4000, 1,6- hexamethylenediisocyanate and 1,4-buthanediol in the following ratio of Usted components (weight parts): 24-30, 50-40, 24,84-27,0 (SU, Al, 1034597).
For production of the coat the components of a composition heat up to 60-50°C with subsequent increase of temperature up to 240°C. The received product is poured on potytetrafluorethylene film. After 5 hours the plate poured off is granulated, heated up again and extruded.
Nevertheless it is necessary to carry out a previous treatment of a known composition before extrusion, which require a lot of time. Besides the film has a thickness no less than 0,05 mm and is suitable only for using with special machines. Moisture content in the coat is 0,03 %, it is enough for detention of the coat in the process of coating in a stretched and elastic condition, but during cooking the contents of water in the coat increased so, that it negatively influences mechanical characteristics of the coat.
The coats on the basis polyamide may be better subjected to stretching and shrinkage, they have high durabiUty, and also are suitable not only for machine filUng but also hand-operated filUng.
It is known a film, used in manufacture of paste Uke food products, in particular of sausages and cheese, containing at least one aUphatic polyamide and at least one ionomer resin and/or at least one modified copolymer of ethylene and of vinylacetate (DE, Al, 2850181).
As polyamides in the known hose film the polycaprolactam, polyaminoenantamide, polyhexamethyleneadipamide and/or polyhexamethylenesebacinamide as separate substances or as a mixture each with other, and also copolymers of above polyamides and of polyaminoundecaneamide or polylaurinelactam are used.
The thickness of received hose film is about 0,050 mm, that is satisfactory only for machine filUng; permeabiUty for water is in a range 12-28 g/M3 in a day, and permeabiUty for oxygen is about 15 up to 30 cm3/ 2 day bar.
This film is manufactured as foUows: the components are mixed, plasticized at 260° C and moulded, preferable by extrusion of a sleeve with blowing. Then biaxial stretching with multipUcity of the lengthways and across stretching in a range from 1:1,5 up to 1:4 is carried out. Then the sleeve is thermofixed for stabilization of the sizes.
However the known technical decision does not allow to receive more thin films for hand-operated filUng and to provide strength of the film necessary at cooking. On cutting of the coat its propensity to breaks was indicated. For preparation of cooked sausages a forcemeat should fiUed in this coat under significant pressure about 0,3-0,6 bars. For hand-operated filUng of sausage forcemeat, during which pressure of the fiUing is insignificant, such coat hardly can be used, as after terminating of the working cycle of preparation of sausages folds or fractures wiU be formed
The closest known technical decision to the claimed one is a hose film on a basis of polyamides, used in manufacture of paste Uke and viscous food products (sausage coat), including polyamide 6, aUphatic copolyamide, aromatic polyamide, containing hexamethylenediamine and terephtaUc acid units, and copolymer including olefin units (EP, Al, 0722664).
This hose film contains (weight. %): a) polyamide 6 b) aUphatic polyamide (5-50 % of general weight of aU polymers in a layer) As the aUphatic copolyamide is used the copolyamide with units of ε-caprolactam, of hexamethylenediamine and of azelaic acid (polyamide 6/6,9) and/or polyamide 6,12 as copolyamide from hexamethylenediamine and dodecanic acid,
B) up to 20% of aromatic polyamide, partiaUy aromatized by hexamethylenediamine and terephtaUc or isophtaUc acids units (PA 6-T or PA
6-T), c) up to 20 % of copolymer having olefin units of polyolefin, modified by carboxy groups, in particular of copolymer of ethylene and of methacryUc acid.
The hose film may involve dyes and/or pigments in few amounts. The manufacturing of monolayer and multilayer sausage coat includes mixturing and melting at the temperature about 240° C of components of the mixture in special extruder until producing of a homogeneous melted mixture, extrusion of the latter through ring injectors with blowing, moulding of an integral sleeve, which stretched then in longitudinal and cross directions under air pressure. A received film is fixed by additional heat treatment.
The hose film received according to the known technology (prototype) gives shrinkage from 5 up to 25 % (at 80° C) in share and cross directions, it has thickness of 0,033-0,056 mm, can be manufactured as multilayer. Water permeabiUty of the sausage coat changes from 11,5 up to 13, 1 g/m a day, and oxygen permeabiUty varies from 13,6 up to 18,5 cm3/m2 day bar.
Multilayer hose film contains as a minimum one layer of the mentioned above polyamide mixture. Other layers consist mainly from polyamides (for example, polyamide 6), polyamide mixtures, polyoleiϊns (for example, polyethylene or polypropylene), also from polyolefins, containing binding functional groups. Besides the layers can be manufactured from copolymers with units of ethylenenonsaturated monomers (for example, vinylacetate, vinyl alcohol, acryUc and methacryUc acid), and also of vinyUdenchloride or acrylonitrile copolymers, of ionomer resins or of mixtures of above named polymers. A coat usually consists of 3- 5 layers. Such coat may be manufactured by coextrusion through ring injectors, which are speciaUy designed according to quantity of layers. Multilayer coats being compared with monolayer show higher water and vapour permeabiUty and permeabiUty for oxygen.
There ia a lack both of monolayer and of multilayer hose films, claimed in EP 0722664. It is their rather high water and vapor permeability and peπneabiUty for oxygen of air, these parameters are of priority for ready sausage products, as they define a safety of ready product and loss of its weight. Moreover, the durabiUty of a coat for viscous products and steriUzed sausages, requiring stabiUty under the technological rules on the temperature up to 125° C, is insufficient high. Summary of the invention
The problem to be solved by the invention consists in creation of a hose film to be used in manufacture of paste Uke and viscous food products, having lower water and vapour permeabiUty and permeabiUty for oxygen, and also having increased strength characteristics under heat treatment. The problem is solved by the claimed invention.
A hose film on the basis of polyamides, including polyamide 6, aUphatic copolyamide, aromatic polyamide, containing hexamethylenediamine and terephthaUc acid units and copolymer, including olefin units, according to the invention, additionally contains ionomer resin, as aUphatic copolyamide it contains copolymer of polycaprolactam and of polyhexamethylenediamine and of adipic acid, and as a copolymer including olefin units it contains a mixture of graft copolymers on the basis of derivatives of carboxyUc and polycarboxyUc acids with the following ratio of components (weight parts): Polyamide 6 77- 83 Copolymer of polycaprolactam and of polyhexamethylenediamine and of adipic acid 7-13
Aromatic polyamide, containing hexamethylenediamine and terephthaUc acid units 3-7
Ionomer resin 3-6 Mixture of graft copolymers on the basis of derivatives of carboxyUc and polycarboxyUc acids 0 1-5 The hose film may contain zinc salt of copolymer of ethylenemethacryUc acid as ionomer resin.
In the claimed film hose the copolymer of polycaprolactam and of polyhexamethylendiamine and of adipic acid may be used (polyamide 6/6,6 with elements of the formulas -N-(CH2)5-CO-, -N-(CH2)6-NH-, -CO-(CH2)4-
CO-) with quantity of parts of monomers accordingly 85, 7,5 and 7,5 weight %. The hose film may contain as a mixture of graft copolymers on the basis of derivatives of carboxyUc and polycarboxyUc acids the mixture with the contents of graft units from 0,3 up to 0,9 weight % The hose film may be carried out as multilayer, and at least one layer has the foUowing composition: (weight parts):
Polyamide 6 77- 83
Copolymer of polycaprolactam and of polyhexamethylenediamine and of adipic acid 7-13 Aromatic polyamide, containing hexamethylenediamine and terephthaUc acid units 3-7
Ionomer resin 3-6
Mixture of graft copolymers on the basis of derivatives of carboxyUc and polycarboxyUc acids 0,1-5 In such embodiment of the invention in the hose film other layers of multilayer hose film are carried out from polyamides, or of polyamide mixtures, or of polyolefins, or of polyolefins containing connecting functional groups, or of copolymers with units of ethylenenonsaturated monomers, or of copolymers of vinyUdenchloride or acrylonitrile or of ionomer resins or of mixtures of these polymers.
Detailed description of the invention The hose film can contain if necessary, additional dyes, pigments and/or auxiUary substances of processing. The share of these components rather smaU, so the basic characteristics of the film remain constant. Below the components of the hose film are designated as foUows:
1) - polyamide 6, 2) - copolymer of polycaprolactam and of polyhexamethylenediamine and of adipic acid,
3) - aromatic polyamide, containing units of hexamethylenediamine and of tereftaUc acid, 4) - ionomer resin
5) - mixture of graft copolymers on the base of derivatives of carboxyUc and of polycarboxyUc acids.
As graft copolymers for example, acrylic polymer with graft units of maleic anhydride, Unear polyethylene of low density with graft units of maleic anhydride and ethylenepropylene rubber with graft groups of maleic anhydride are used.
Mixture of graft copolymers on the basis of derivatives of carboxyUc and of polycarboxyUc acids aUows to enter into structure of the hose film some other, more easier processed and more accessible copolymers, for example, copolymer of polycaprolactam and of polyhexamethylendiamine and of adipic acid instead of copolymer of polycaprolactam and polyhexamethylendiamine and azelaic acid used at manufacturing of known hose films
Due to preferable use of set of components of the hose fimi in the ratio: from 79 to 81 % of total weight of a component 1), from 9 up to 11 % of a component 2), from 4 up to 6 of % of a component 3), from 4 up to 5% of a component 4), from 0,5 up to 1,5 % of a component 5), the properties are reached which have not both separate components of the film and known structures of hose films, namely: higher water and vapour permeabiUty and permeabiUty for oxygen, and besides, the film is thermostable up to 125° C and is not subjected to breaks at thermal processing (cooking).

Leaving from the extruder a primary sleeve is sharply cooled and then is heated up for plastification. Then it undergo to biaxial stretching which is carried out by compressed air. Then the moulded sleeve is directed to the furnace for thermofixation where there is the process of its stabilization. Then a sleeve is cooled, then it is submitted on the receiver, where it is reeled up on a fiber drum in a combined form.
Example 2. To receive a multilayer hose the foUowing polymeric mixtures are appUed. Mixture 1; 1) 80 weight parts of usual granulated polycaprolactam (polyamide 6) (as in the example 1) 2) 10 weight parts of copolymer of polycaprolactam and of polyhexamethylenediamine and of adipic acid (polyamide 6/6,6) (according to example 1)
3) 5 weight parts of aromatic polyamide with units of hexamethylenediamine and of terephthaUc acid (according to example 1)
4) 4 weight parts of ionomer resin - copolymer of ethylenemethacryUc acid with 2-20 % of methacryUc acid (according to example 1)
5a) 0,5 weight parts of acryUc polymer with graft units of maleic anhydride (according to example 1). 56) 0,5 weight parts of Unear polyethylene of low density with graft units of maleic anhydride (according to example 1)
Mixture II:
70 weight parts of polyethylene of low density with melting index 0,2 g for 10 min at 190° C and 2,16 kgs of a loading and 30 weight parts of Unear polyethylene of low density modified by maleic anhydride with melting index 3 g for 10 min at 190°C and loading of 2,16 kgs.
Mixture III:
The mixture III is prepared similarly to mixture 1. Mixtures 1, II, III are plasticizated in three single-screw extruders at 240°C until producing of homogeneous alloys, then they are fed to 3-layer ring injectors and are coextruded in a sleeve. The sleeve is processed in oriented in two axis and thermofixed hose film.
At general thickness of the film of 0,055 mm the layers have the foUowing thickness: External layer (mixture 1): 0,030 mm Average layer (mixture II): 0,015 mm Internal layer (mixture III): 0,010 mm.

Note:
The data are brought for a film by thickness of 0,04 mm. Conditions at tests: On items 1,2 V = 50 mm/min, V - speed of stretching, on items 3,4 during 24 hours at 23°C and relative humidity of air 80 %; on item 5 during 4 hours, on item 6 in water at 80°C with and 125° C, percent on 1000 sausage sticks.
The hose film produced according to the invention meets the requirements, necessary for use, in particular in manufacture of cooked sausages and of processed cheeses. The thickness of a film for machine filUng of sausage forcemeat is 0,037-0,040 mm, for hand-operated filUng it is 0,030-0,033 mm.
The hose film remains rather strong, also at high temperatures about up to 125°C it has large elasticity and it is soft to the touch, adjoins to contents even after complete cooUng, wiU not practicaUy lead to precipitation of jeUy and of fat between sausage forcemeat and coat; its durabiUty at filUng and accuracy of caUbre of sausages, made in such environments, does not decrease. There is no adhesion of food products to the hose film.
Distinctive feature of invented hose film is its low water- vapor- and oxygen permeabiUty, that defines a high degree of safety of a ready product (abihty to oxidize and loss of weight), and also it thermostabiUty.
The durabiUty of the coat is kept during heat treatment, percent of sausage sticks spoiled at cooking is no more than 1 % on 1000 ready sticks. Industrial application
This invention may be used most effectively in the industry of production Uary materials for food industry
