Definitions
- the present invention relates to a white, sealable, thermoformable, biaxially oriented, coextruded polyester film which comprises at least one base layer B and at least one sealable cover layer, at least the base layer B containing a polyester raw material and a cycloolefin copolymer (COC).
- the invention further relates to a method for producing the polyester film and its use.
- DE-A 23 53 347 describes a process for producing a single-layer or multilayer, milky polyester film, which is characterized in that a mixture of particles of a linear polyester with 3 to 27% by weight of a homopolymer or copolymer of Ethylene or
- Propylene is produced, the mixture is extruded as a film, the film is quenched and oriented biaxially by stretching in directions perpendicular to one another and the film is heat-set.
- a disadvantage of the process is that the regrind obtained in the production of the film (essentially a mixture of polyester raw material and ethylene or propylene copolymer) is no longer suitable for the
- EP-A-0300060 describes a single-layer polyester film which, in addition to polyethylene terephthalate, also contains 3 to 40% by weight of a crystalline propylene polymer and 0.001 to 3% by weight of a surface-active substance.
- the surface-active substance causes the number of vacuoles in the film to increase and, at the same time, their size to decrease to the desired extent. This results in a higher opacity and a lower density of the film.
- a further disadvantage of the film is that waste material (essentially a mixture of polyester raw material and propylene homopolymer) which is produced during the production of the film can no longer be used as regenerate, since otherwise the film turns yellow. The process is therefore uneconomical and the film with yellow tint produced with regenerated material was not able to establish itself on the market. In addition, the film has significantly too high roughness and therefore has a very matt appearance (very low gloss), which is undesirable for many applications.
- EP-A-0 360201 describes an at least two-layer polyester film which contains a base layer with fine vacuoles, the density of which is between 0.4 and 1.3 kg / dm 3 and has at least one cover layer, the density of which is greater than 1. 3 kg / dm.
- the vacuoles are achieved by adding 4 to 30% by weight of a crystalline propylene polymer and then biaxially stretching the film.
- the additional cover layer improves the manufacturability of the film (no streaking on the surface of the film), the surface tension is increased and the roughness of the laminated surface can be reduced.
- the regrind obtained in the production of the film (essentially a mixture of polyester raw material and propylene homopolymer) can no longer be used for the production process, since otherwise the film turns yellow.
- the process is therefore uneconomical and the yellow-tinged film produced with regenerated material was not able to establish itself on the market.
- the films listed in the examples still have high roughness and thus have a matt appearance (low gloss), which is undesirable for many applications.
- EP-A-0 795 399 describes an at least two-layer polyester film which contains a base layer with fine vacuoles, the density of which is between 0.4 and 1.3 kg / dm 3 and has at least one cover layer, the density of which is greater than 1 , 3 kg / dm 3 .
- the vacuoles are achieved by adding 5 to 45% by weight of a thermoplastic polymer to the polyester raw material in the base and then biaxially stretching the film.
- Polypropylene, polyethylene, polymethylpentene, polystyrene or polycarbonate are mentioned as thermoplastic polymers, polypropylene being the preferred thermoplastic polymer.
- the additional cover layer improves the manufacturability of the film (no streaking on the surface of the film), increases the surface tension and the roughness of the laminated surface can be adapted to the respective requirements.
- a further modification of the film in the base layer and / or in the outer layers with white pigments (usually TiO 2 ) and / or with optical brighteners enables the film properties to be adapted to the respective application requirements.
- the disadvantage is that waste material produced in the production of the film (essentially a mixture of polyester raw material and the additive raw material) can no longer be used as regrind for the film production, since otherwise the color of the film produced with regrind is changed indefinitely, which is undesirable.
- DE-A 19540277 describes a single-layer or multilayer polyester film which contains a base layer with fine vacuoles, the density of which lies between 0.6 and 1.3 kg / dm 3 and has a birefringence in the plane which is from -0 , 02 is sufficient to 0.04.
- the vacuoles are achieved by adding 3 to 40% by weight of a thermoplastic resin to the polyester raw material in the base and then biaxially stretching the film.
- Thermoplastic resins include polypropylene, polyethylene, polymethyl-pentene, cyclic olefin polymers, Polyacrylic resins, polystyrene or polycarbonate called, with polypropylene and polystyrene are preferred raw materials.
- the claimed film is distinguished in particular by a superior tear strength and isotropic properties.
- the disadvantage is that the regrind produced in the production of the film can no longer be used for film production, since otherwise the color of the film is changed indefinitely, which is undesirable. The process is therefore uneconomical and the discolored film produced with regrind could not prevail on the market.
- the films listed in the examples still have too high roughness and thus have a matt appearance (low gloss), which is undesirable for many applications.
- Sealable, biaxially oriented polyester films are also known in the prior art. These films, which are known from the prior art, are distinguished either by good sealing behavior or by good optics or by acceptable processing behavior.
- GB-A 1 465 973 describes a coextruded, two-layer polyester film, one layer of which consists of copolyesters containing isophthalic acid and terephthalic acid and the other layer of which consists of polyethylene terephthalate.
- white films are not mentioned in GB-A.
- EP-A 0 035 835 describes a coextruded, sealable polyester film which, in order to improve the winding and processing behavior, contains particles in the sealing layer whose average particle size is greater than the layer thickness of the sealing layer.
- the particulate additives form surface protrusions that prevent unwanted blocking and sticking to rollers or guides.
- Over the other, not sealable Layer of the film no further details are given on the incorporation of anti-blocking agents.
- the choice of particles with a larger diameter than the thickness of the sealing layer in the amounts given in the examples deteriorates the sealing behavior of the film.
- the document does not give any information on the sealing temperature range of the film.
- the seal seam strength is measured at 140 ° C and is in a range from 63 to 120 N / m (0.97 N / 15 mm to 1.8 N / 15 mm film width).
- White films are not described in EP-A.
- EP-A-0 432 886 describes a coextruded, multilayer polyester film which has a first surface on which a sealable layer is arranged and a second surface on which there is an acrylate layer.
- the sealable cover layer can also consist of copolyesters containing isophthalic acid and terephthalic acid.
- the film on the back has improved processing properties. The script does not give any information about the sealing area of the film.
- the seal seam strength is measured at 140 ° C.
- a seal seam strength of 761.5 N / m (corresponding to 11.4 N / 15 mm) is specified for an 11 ⁇ m thick seal layer.
- a disadvantage of the acrylic coating on the back is that this side no longer seals against the sealable top layer. The film can therefore only be used to a very limited extent. White foils are not mentioned in the writing.
- EP-A-0 515 096 describes a coextruded, multilayer, sealable polyester film which contains an additional additive on the sealable layer.
- the additive can contain, for example, inorganic particles and is preferably applied to the film in an aqueous layer during its manufacture. As a result, the film should maintain the good sealing properties and be easy to process. The back contains very few particles that get into this layer mainly through regranulate. No information is given in this document on the sealing temperature range of the film.
- the seal seam strength is measured at 140 ° C and is more than 200 N / m (corresponding to 3 N / 15 mm). For a 3 ⁇ m thick sealing layer, there is a sealing seam strength of 275 N / m (corresponding to 4.125 N / 15 mm). However, white foils are not mentioned in the writing.
- the object of the present invention was to provide a white, sealable, thermoformable and biaxially oriented polyester film which has a very good sealability and which can be produced with great economy.
- waste material inherent in the manufacturing process can be used as regrind in an amount in the range of 10 to 70% by weight, based on the total weight of the film, for film production without the physical Properties of the film produced with it are significantly negatively affected.
- no significant yellowing of the film should occur due to the addition of regenerate.
- the object is achieved according to the invention by providing a white, sealable, biaxially oriented, coextruded polyester film with at least one base layer B and one sealable cover layer A, both made of thermoplastic polyester.
- the characteristic features of this film can be seen in the fact that at least the base layer B contains a cycloolefin copolymer (COC) in addition to polyester raw material in an amount in the range from 2 to 60% by weight, based on the weight of the base layer B, the glass transition temperature T g of the cycloolefin copolymer (COC) is in the range from 70 to 270 ° C., and that the polyester raw material contains an increased amount of diethylene glycol and / or polyethylene glycol and / or isophthalic acid.
- COC cycloolefin copolymer
- the polyester raw material for the base layer B and for the cover layer A or also for further cover layers contains diethylene glycol (DEG) in an amount of> 0.5% by weight, preferably of> 1, 0% by weight, particularly preferably of> 1.2% by weight, and / or polyethylene glycol (PEG) in an amount of 0,5 0.5% by weight, preferably
- DEG diethylene glycol

- IPA isophthalic acid
- a white, biaxially oriented polyester film in the sense of the present invention refers to a film which has a degree of whiteness of more than 70%, preferably more than 75% and particularly preferably more than 80%. Furthermore, the opacity of the film according to the invention is more than 55%, preferably more than 60% and particularly preferably more than 65%.
- the proportion of COC in the base layer B must be greater than 2% by weight, otherwise the degree of whiteness is less than 70%.
- the COC content is greater than 60% by weight, the film can no longer be produced economically since it can no longer be stretched in a process-safe manner.
- the glass transition temperature T g of the COC used is greater than 70 ° C. Otherwise (at a glass transition temperature T g of less than 70 ° C) the raw material mixture is difficult to process (difficult to extrude), the desired degree of whiteness is no longer achieved and the regrind used leads to a film which tends to increase its yellowing. On the other hand, if the glass transition temperature T g of the selected COC is greater than 270 ° C, the raw material mixture may no longer be sufficiently homogeneously dispersed in the extruder. This would result in a film with inhomogeneous properties. In the preferred embodiment of the film according to the invention, the glass transition temperature T g of the COCs used is in a range from 90 to 250 ° C. and in the very particularly preferred embodiment in a range from 110 to 220 ° C.
- the degree of whiteness and also the opacity of the film can be set precisely and adapted to the respective requirements. This measure makes it possible to largely dispense with other common whitening and opaque additives. Completely surprising was the additional effect that the regenerate, like the polymeric additives according to the prior art, does not tend to turn yellow.
- the film according to the invention is characterized by a high / or. through a particularly high degree of whiteness and a high / or. through a particularly high opacity, the color change of the film due to the addition of regenerated material remains extremely low and is therefore highly economical.
- the film according to the invention is multilayered.
- Multi-layer embodiments are at least two-layer and always include the COC-containing base layer B and at least one sealable cover layer A.
- the COC-containing layer forms the base layer B of the film at least one sealable cover layer A, it being possible for one or both sides to have intermediate layers.
- the COC-containing layer forms the base layer B of the film with at least one sealable cover layer A and preferably with a further cover layer C, it being possible for one or both sides to have an intermediate layer or layers.
- the COC-containing layer also forms an intermediate layer of the multilayer film.
- COC-containing intermediate layers have a five-layer structure and, in addition to the COC-containing base layer B, have COC-containing intermediate layers on both sides.
- the COC-containing layer can form a cover layer on the base or intermediate layer in addition to the base layer B.
- the base layer B is that layer whose thickness makes up more than 30 to 99.5%, preferably 60 to 95%, of the total film thickness.
- the cover layer (s) is / are the layer (s) that form the outer layer (s) of the film.
- the optional additional cover layer C can be sealable, like the cover layer A, or it can also contain COC like the base layer B, but it can also contain other equipment features such as e.g. have a matt or particularly rough or particularly smooth surface. It can e.g. also be high gloss.
- the film already has a particularly high gloss if the non-sealable cover layer C is constructed in exactly the same way as the base layer B or the base layer B simultaneously (in the case of a two-layer structure) is the non-sealable outer layer.

- the extrusion temperature is above the glass transition temperature T g of the COC, generally at least 5 K, preferably 10 to 180 K, in particular 15 to 150 K, above the glass transition temperature T g of the cycloolefin copolymer (COC).
- this outer layer C and possibly the intermediate layers can also contain other materials, in which case this outer layer C and possibly the intermediate layers preferably consist of a mixture of polymers, a copolymer or a homopolymer which contain ethylene-2,6-naphthalate units and ethylene terephthalate units.
- the sealable outer layer A which is applied to the base layer B by coextrusion, is based on polyester copolymers and consists essentially of copolyesters, which are predominantly composed of a mixture of isophthalic and terephthalic acid units and of ethylene glycol units. The remaining monomer units come from other aliphatic, cycloali- phatic or aromatic diols or dicarboxylic acids, as they can also occur in the base layer B.
- the preferred copolyesters which provide the desired sealing properties are those built up from ethylene terephthalate, from ethylene isophthalate units and from ethylene glycol units.
- the proportion of ethylene terephthalate is 40 to 95 mol% and the corresponding proportion of ethylene isophthalate is 60 to 5 mol%.
- the total thickness of the film can vary within wide limits and depends on the intended use.
- the preferred embodiments of the film according to the invention have total thicknesses of 4 to 500 ⁇ m, 8 to 300 ⁇ m, in particular 10 to 300 ⁇ m, being preferred.
- the thickness of the intermediate layer (s) which may be present is generally in each case 0.5 to 15 ⁇ m, independently of one another, with intermediate layer thicknesses of 1 to 10 ⁇ m, in particular 1 to 8 ⁇ m, being preferred.
- the values given relate to an intermediate layer.
- the thickness of the cover layer (s) is selected independently of the other layers and is preferably in the range from 0.1 to 10 ⁇ m, in particular 0.2 to 5 ⁇ m, preferably 0.3 to 2 ⁇ m, with cover layers applied on both sides with regard to thickness and composition can be the same or different.
- the thickness of the base layer B results accordingly from the difference between the total thickness of the film and the thickness of the applied top and intermediate layer (s) and can therefore vary within wide limits analogously to the total thickness.
- the white, sealable polyester film according to the invention can be produced economically from a polyester raw material with a comparatively enriched amount of DEG and / or PEG and / or IPA as stated above and can then also be produced at conventional low temperatures. drawing systems can be thermoformed without any problems and delivers a surprisingly high level of detail.
- the base layer B and the other layers can additionally contain conventional additives, such as stabilizers, antiblocking agents and other fillers. They are expediently added to the polymer or the polymer mixture before the melting. For example, phosphorus compounds such as phosphoric acid or phosphoric acid esters are used as stabilizers.
- Typical antiblocking agents are inorganic and / or organic particles, for example calcium carbonate, amorphous silica, SiO 2 in colloidal and in chain-like form, talc, magnesium carbonate, barium carbonate, calcium sulfate, barium sulfate, lithium phosphate, calcium phosphate, magnesium phosphate, Aluminum oxide, lithium fluoride, calcium, barium, zinc or manganese salts of the dicarboxylic acids used, carbon black, titanium dioxide, kaolin or crosslinked polymer particles, for example polystyrene or acrylate particles.

- Mixtures of two or more different antiblocking agents or mixtures of antiblocking agents of the same composition but different particle size can also be selected as additives.
- the particles can be added to the polymers of the individual layers of the film in the respective advantageous amounts, e.g. as a glycolic dispersion during polycondensation or via masterbatches during extrusion. Pigment concentrations of 0 to 25% by weight have proven to be particularly suitable (based on the weight of the respective layer).
- a detailed description of the antiblocking agents can be found, for example, in EP-A-0 602 964.
- the base layer B or the other additional layers can contain further pigmentation. It has proven to be particularly favorable here as additional additives barium sulfate in a grain size in the range from 0.3 to 0.8 ⁇ m, preferably from 0.4 to 0.7 ⁇ m or titanium dioxide with a grain size of 0.05 to 0.3 ⁇ m, measured according to the Sedigraph method. This gives the film a brilliant, white appearance.
- the amount of barium sulfate is in the range from 1 to 25% by weight, preferably from 1 to 20% by weight, very preferably from 1 to 15% by weight.
- the cover layers can in principle contain the above-mentioned additive concentrations according to the invention.
- the following embodiments have proven to be particularly favorable:
- the lowest sealing starting temperature and the highest sealing seam strength are achieved if the copolymers described in more detail above are used for the sealable cover layer A.
- the best sealing properties of the film are obtained if no further additives, in particular no inorganic or organic particles, are added to the copolymer. In this case, the lowest seal starting temperature and the highest seal seam strengths are obtained for a given copolyester.
- the handling of the film is not optimal in this case, since the surface of the sealable cover layer A tends to block.
- the sealable cover layer A is modified in order to improve the handling of the film and the processability. This is preferably done with the aid of suitable antiblocking agents of a selected size, which are added to the sealing layer in a certain amount, in such a way that on the one hand the blocking is minimized and on the other hand the sealing properties are only slightly deteriorated.
- suitable antiblocking agents of a selected size, which are added to the sealing layer in a certain amount, in such a way that on the one hand the blocking is minimized and on the other hand the sealing properties are only slightly deteriorated.
- the measured value of the surface gas flow time should preferably be in the range from 50 to 4000 s. At values below 50 s, the sealing properties are negatively influenced in the sense of the present invention, and at values above 4000 s, the handling of the film becomes poor.
- the film additionally has a cover layer C, the topography of which should preferably be characterized by the following set of parameters:
- the coefficient of friction (COF) of this side against itself should preferably be less than 0.7 and particularly preferably ⁇ 0.6. Otherwise the winding behavior and the further processing of the film are less good.
- COF coefficient of friction
- R a value should be> 30 nm. Values smaller than 30 nm have negative effects on the winding and processing behavior of the film.
- the measured value of the surface gas flow time should advantageously be in the range below 500 s. At values of 500 s or more, the winding and processing behavior of the film is adversely affected.
- the film has a cover layer C which contains a larger amount of pigments (ie higher pigment concentration) than the cover layer A.
- the pigment concentration in this second top layer C is between 0.1 and 10% by weight, advantageously between 0.12 and 8% by weight and in particular between 0.15 and 6% by weight, based on the weight of this layer.
- the other sealable cover layer A, opposite the cover layer C, is filled with a smaller amount of inert pigments.
- the concentration of the inert particles within layer A is advantageously between 0.01 and 0.3% by weight, preferably between 0.015 and 0.2% by weight and in particular between 0.02 and 0.1% by weight, based on the weight of this layer.
- the invention further relates to a method for producing the white, sealable polyester film according to the invention by the extrusion or coextrusion method known per se.
- the procedure is such that the melts corresponding to the individual layers of the film are co-extruded through a flat die, the film thus obtained is drawn off on one or more rollers for consolidation, the film is then biaxially stretched (oriented), the biaxial stretched film is heat-set and optionally corona or flame treated on a surface layer intended for treatment and then wound up.
- the stretching leads to a spatial orientation of the molecular chains of the polyester.
- the stretching in the longitudinal direction is preferably carried out with the aid of a plurality of rollers rotating at different angular speeds in accordance with the desired stretching ratio.
- a corresponding tenter frame is generally used for transverse stretching.
- the temperature at which the stretching is carried out can vary in a relatively large window and depends on the desired properties of the film.
- the longitudinal stretching is carried out at 80 to 130 ° C and the transverse stretching at 90 to 150 ° C.
- the longitudinal stretching ratio is generally in the range from 2.5: 1 to 6: 1, preferably from 3: 1 to 5.5: 1.
- the transverse stretching ratio is generally in the range from 3.0: 1 to 5.0: 1, preferably from 3.5: 1 to 4.5: 1.
- the stretching can also take place in a simultaneous stretching frame (simultaneous stretching), the number of stretching steps and the sequence (longitudinal / transverse) not of is of crucial importance for the property profile of the film.
- stretching temperatures ⁇ 125 ° C and particularly favorable ⁇ 115 ° C are favorable here.
- the stretching ratios correspond to those in the conventional sequential process.
- the film is kept at a temperature in the range from 150 to 250 ° C. for a period of about 0.1 to 10 s.
- the film is then wound up in the usual way.
- the film can be chemically treated or also corona or flame treated.
- the treatment intensity should be set so that the surface tension of the film is generally over 45 mN / m.
- the film can also be coated to set further properties. Typical coatings are adhesion-promoting, antistatic, slip-improving or adhesive layers. It is advisable to apply these additional layers to the film using the technique of “in-line coating” by means of aqueous dispersions after the longitudinal stretching and before the transverse stretching.
- the film according to the invention can be thermoformed without further pretreatment, in particular without an upstream drying step, so that complex molded parts can be produced therefrom.
- Thermoforming generally includes the steps of pre-drying, heating, molding, cooling, demolding, tempering and cooling. During the thermoforming process, it was found that the films according to the invention can be shaped surprisingly well without the pre-drying step. This advantage compared to other thermoformable films made of polycarbonate or polymethyl methacrylate, which, depending on the thickness of the film, require pretreatments at temperatures of 100 to 120 ° C for times in the range of 10 to 15 hours, reduces the costs for thermoforming when using the film according to the invention and for this reason makes the thermoformable film according to the invention particularly economically attractive.
- thermoforming the white, sealable polyester film according to the invention The following particularly suitable process parameters were found in particular for thermoforming the white, sealable polyester film according to the invention:
