Definitions
- the present invention relates to a label made of thermally shrinkable plastic material.
- Labels made of shrinkable plastic material are increasingly replacing traditional paper labels.
- the labels produced from shrink films or shrink sleeves have the advantage of completely sheathing even irregularly shaped containers. These labels are impervious to moisture, they do not dissolve unintentionally, can be provided with large area imprints and still allow a high degree of transparency, so that the product marked with the label is still visible.
- the labels can also be processed into security and tamper-evident seals.
- the shrink labels have shrinkage values, which can be adapted within certain limits to the particular application.
- the known shrink labels are shrinkable depending on the pretreatment in the transverse direction, but also in the longitudinal direction.
- the known films used are traded as rolled goods or as a prefabricated hose.
- the labels made of shrinkable plastic material are today mainly made of PVC or PET. Occasionally, oriented polystyrene or oriented polypropylene is used. In these known starting materials, the problem arises that especially the material PVC, but also the other materials are difficult to separate and dispose of other packaging materials and waste. In addition, the shrinkage behavior of the known materials is not satisfactory in all applications.
- the object is achieved by the label is made of a predominantly or exclusively longitudinally stretched film of a polyethylene material.
- Polyethylene waste can be incinerated without polluting the environment. Polyethylene is considered harmless to health and can therefore be disposed of in an environmentally friendly way. In addition, polyethylene has a lower density than prior art shrink film materials, except for OPP, and thus can be more easily separated from other materials. Polyethylene is also inexpensive and can be stretched to a considerable extent and then shrunk again. The material also has sufficient rigidity to make the label sufficiently durable and resistant to mechanical stress.
- the labels according to the invention are clearly superior to the previously known wrap-around labels based on O-PP.
- the labels according to the invention can also adapt to very unusual shaped packaging bodies.
- the shrinkage temperatures are still within a manageable range, whereby the processing effort remains within reasonable limits.
- the material for the labels is made of a blown film whose material is made Polyethylene exists.
- the mechanical properties of the polyethylenes are highly dependent on the molecular size and structure of the polyethylenes. With the density increase shear modulus, hardness, yield strength and melting range; the shock resistance, transparency, swellability and solubility then decrease. With the same density increase with increasing molecular weight of the polyethylene tear strength, elongation, shock resistance, impact resistance and creep strength.
- the blown film can be made of pure LLDPE, but blends with HDPE or LDPE are also possible. The mixture selected in each case for a use case must be selected by a person skilled in the art depending on the desired properties.
- the blown film used can be extruded with an inflation ratio. A transverse shrinkage effect generated thereby is compensated again during later stretching of the film. After extrusion, the film is conveyed into the stretching oven where it is heated and stretched. Thereafter, the film runs out of the stretching oven again, is cooled, laid flat and cut. Upon stretching, the macromolecules are oriented longitudinally and this orientation is frozen with subsequent cooling. Upon subsequent heating, the macromolecules revert to their normal position, causing the film to shrink.
- the extruded film has a thickness of 180 microns, after stretching, the thickness is still 45 microns.
- the stretch ratio is 1: 4.
- the stretched film can be delivered as a roll or in sections.
- the material used has a density of less than 1 g / cm 3 , it does not sink down in the water like metal, sand and other substances, but stays on top of the water surface and can thus be easily separated from other waste materials become.
- the minimum realizable density is currently about 0.87 g / cm 3 .
- the density depends not only on the starting material, but also on the particular additive. At a density of 0.92 to 0.95, sufficient strength can be set with good shrink properties.
