Description

Technical Field

The present invention relates to a paper-based barrier material used for a food packaging material, a food container, or a food cup.

Background Art

It is important to impart a gas barrier property (in particular, an oxygen barrier property) to a paper packaging material for the purpose of protecting packaged various products from the degradation due to gas, such as oxidation due to oxygen.
Paper packaging materials have hitherto been provided to which a gas barrier property is imparted by laminating a metal foil or a film on a paper base material. Examples of the material forming the barrier layer include: a metal foil or a metal vapor deposited film made of a metal such as aluminum; a resin film made of polyvinyl alcohol, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, polyvinylidene chloride or polyacrylonitrile; a film coated with such a resin; and a ceramic vapor-deposited film which is further coated with a vapor-deposited inorganic oxide such as silicon oxide or aluminum oxide.
In addition to the foregoing, as paper packaging materials with a gas barrier property imparted thereto, paper gas barrier materials having a gas barrier layer made of a water soluble polymer and an inorganic layered compound have been disclosed in Patent Literature 1 and Patent Literature 2. A paper gas barrier material in which a barrier layer made of a specific vinyl alcohol-based polymer is provided on a coating layer is disclosed in Patent Literature 2.
It is also important to impart a waterproofness (in particular, a water vapor barrier property) to a paper packaging material for the purpose of protecting various products to be packaged from the degradation due to water vapor.
A paper packaging material has been proposed in which a water vapor barrier property is imparted by extrusion lamination of or pasting of a resin film excellent in water vapor barrier property onto a paper base material, or alternatively, by extrusion lamination of or pasting of, for example, a film coated with such a resin excellent in water vapor barrier property on a paper base material. A packaging paper having a moistureproof layer composed of a synthetic resin latex, a wax and inorganic fine particles is disclosed in Patent Literature 3.
Moreover, as a packaging material in which both of a gas barrier property and a water vapor barrier are imparted to a paper packaging material, a packaging material is known in which a resin having a gas barrier property and a resin having a water vapor barrier property are laminated on a paper base material.
Patent Literature 4 discloses a packaging material comprising a base material layer made of paper, a clay coat layer containing clay formed on the base material layer and a barrier layer formed on the clay coat layer. The clay coat layer preferably contains at least one of kaolin, talc, calcium carbonate and titanium dioxide (abstract). The clay coat layer can contain styrene butadiene latex as a binder resin (paragraph [0020]).
Patent Literature 5 describes a thermal recording material which, in addition to thermal recording layers, contains an intermediate layer comprising modified polyvinyl alcohol and synthetic mica particles (abstract).
Patent Literature 6 discloses a laminate which has gas barrier and moisture barrier properties. The laminate comprises a gas barrier layer consisting essentially of microfibrous cellulose, which is formed on one surface of a paper support and a moistureproof layer comprising a pigment and a synthetic resin latex formed on the gas barrier layer (abstract).

Technical Problem

A packaging material in which by extrusion lamination of a resin having a gas barrier property and a resin having a water vapor barrier property on a paper base material (base paper), both barrier layers are formed on the paper base material has a problem that the packaging material cannot cope with the required quality because the types of the resins capable of being extrusion laminated are limited. A packaging material in which multilayers are laminated on a paper base material in order to establish the compatibility between the gas barrier property and the water vapor barrier property finds difficulty in recycling of the paper and the laminated layers. The multilayer laminated packaging material also offers a problem such that the carbon dioxide emission amount in the production thereof is large. Moreover, in the multilayer laminated packaging material, specific adhesive resins are sometimes required to be used between the respective laminated layers, to offer another problem that the production of the multilayer laminated packaging material is cumbersome.
On the other hand, in a packaging material in which a paper base material is coated with a resin having a gas barrier property and a resin having a water vapor barrier property, and the types of the usable resins are scarcely limited, and various required qualities can be coped with. However, a packaging material to which both of the gas barrier property and the water vapor barrier property are imparted, for example, in the case where the moistureproof layer of Patent Literature 3 is disposed on the packaging material having a gas barrier property of Patent Literature 1 or Patent Literature 2, offers a problem that although a satisfactory water vapor barrier property is obtained, no gas barrier property is obtained. Additionally, in the case where the gas barrier layer of Patent Literature 1 or Patent Literature 2 is disposed on a moistureproof paper having the moistureproof layer of Patent Literature 3, the surface tension of the moistureproof layer, hence the gas barrier layer is not uniformly formed due to repellency, and hence no sufficient gas barrier property can be obtained.
Accordingly, the present invention takes as its object the provision of a paper based barrier packaging material simultaneously having both of an excellent gas barrier property and an excellent water vapor barrier property.

Solution to Problem

Said object is achieved by a paper based barrier packaging material comprising a plurality of coating layers disposed on a paper base material, wherein the plurality of coating layers includes a water vapor barrier layer formed on the paper base material and a gas barrier layer formed on the water vapor barrier layer, wherein a resin selected from the group consisting of styrene-butadiene-based resins, styrene-acrylic resins, ethylene-vinyl acetate-based resins, butadiene-methyl methacrylate-based resins, vinyl acetate-butyl acrylate-based copolymers, maleic anhydride copolymer and acrylic acid-methyl methacrylate-based copolymer or a mixture of two or more thereof is used as a binder resin in the water vapor barrier layer,
wherein a polyvinyl alcohol resin is used as a binder resin in the gas barrier layer, and
wherein the water vapor barrier layer includes kaolin having an average particle size of 5 µm or more and an aspect ratio of 10 or more and a pigment having an average particle size of 5 µm or less,
wherein the mixing ratio between said kaolin having an average particle size of 5 µm or more and an aspect ratio of 10 and said pigment having an average particle size of 5 µm or less is 50/50 to 99/1 in terms of dry weight.
Preferred embodiments of the present invention are set forth in the dependent claims.

Advantageous Effects of Invention

(1) The present invention have succeeded in realizing both barrier properties, namely, a water vapor barrier and a gas barrier property, by sequentially forming by coating a water vapor barrier layer on a paper base material and further a gas barrier layer on the water vapor barrier layer. The present invention can provide a paper based barrier packaging material exhibiting an excellent gas barrier property and an excellent water vapor barrier property by forming a water vapor barrier layer and a gas barrier layer with coating layers of the coating materials using as binders polymers (aqueous coating materials) including water as dispersion media.
The coating materials forming the gas barrier layer and the water vapor barrier layer exhibit the functions to prevent the permeation of water vapor and the permeation of gas (oxygen), respectively, each in a form of a film formed by drying and solidifying. In the two types of the barrier layers, the coating layers made of the aqueous coating materials are satisfactory in the compatibility between the layers, and are strongly resistant to the interfacial separation due to the water vapor or the gas tending to permeate one of the layers from the other layer, so as to enable both functions to be satisfactorily maintained.
(2) By forming one or both of the water vapor barrier layer and the gas barrier layer by using a coating material to which, as a pigment having a large particle size, kaolin having an average particle size of 5 µm or more and an aspect ratio of 10 or more was added, the barrier property against water vapor or gas is improved.
(3) The use of a coating material including a pigment as added thereto, having an average particle size of 5 µm or less improves the barrier property against water vapor or gas.
(4) As the polymer for the coating layer forming the water vapor barrier layer, a styrene-butadiene-based synthetic resin is suitable. As the polymer for the coating layer forming the gas barrier layer, a polyvinyl alcohol resin is used. As a paper based barrier packaging material, the combination of the resins is excellent in which the coating layer mainly composed of the polyvinyl alcohol resin is formed on the coating layer, formed on a paper base material, mainly composed of the styrene-butadiene-based synthetic resin.
(5) The styrene-butadiene synthetic resin or the polyvinyl alcohol resin including a cross-linking agent added thereto improves both barrier properties.

Description of Embodiments

The present invention is a paper based barrier packaging material (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as a "packaging material") including a water vapor barrier layer and a gas barrier layer disposed in this order on a paper base material (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as a "base paper"). The two types of barrier layers are each formed by applying an aqueous coating material, and to the coating material, a polymer binder as a main additive, a pigment, and a cross-linking agent are added.
The water vapor barrier layer or the gas barrier layer is formed by coating with a coating material including a polymer as a binder resin and using water as a dispersion medium. To the coating layers forming the two types of barrier layers, it is preferable to add kaolin having an average particle size of 5 µm or more and an aspect ratio of 10 or more, a pigment having an average particle size of 5 µm or less, and a cross-linking agent.
The reasons for the fact that the paper based barrier packaging material of the present invention includes the water vapor barrier layer formed on a paper base material and further the gas barrier layer on the water vapor barrier layer simultaneously has both of an excellent water vapor barrier property and an excellent gas barrier property are inferred as follows.
There are many instances where for the formation of the gas barrier layer, a water soluble polymer resin is used. In the case where the gas barrier layer and the water vapor barrier are disposed in this order on the paper base material, the moisture in the air permeating through the paper base material operates to degrade the gas barrier layer including the water soluble polymer. On the other hand, in the case where a water vapor barrier layer including a resin satisfactory in waterproofness and a gas barrier layer are disposed in this order, the moisture passing through the paper base material is blocked by the water vapor barrier layer, and hence the moisture effect on (the degradation of) the gas barrier layer can be prevented. Accordingly, the paper based barrier packaging material of the present invention has a satisfactory water vapor barrier property and a satisfactory gas barrier property.
The paper based barrier packaging material of the present invention is usually used in such a way that the side of the gas barrier layer is the side of the content (article to be packaged) and the side of the paper layer is the atmospheric side (outer surface). The permeation of the atmospheric moisture into the interior can be prevented, and hence when the article to be packaged is a dry substance, the structure of the present invention is effective. When a wet article is packaged, further a resin extrusion laminated layer or a film laminate layer is additionally formed on the gas barrier layer to be the inner side.

In the present invention, the paper base material is a sheet includes pulp, a filler, and various additives. Examples of the pulp include: chemical pulps such as leaf bleached kraft pulp (LBKP), needle bleached kraft pulp (NBKP) and sulfite pulp; mechanical pulps such as stone-ground pulp and thermomechanical pulp; and non-wood fibers obtained from kenaf, bamboo, and hemp. These materials can be appropriately mixed to be used. Among these, the chemical pulps such as leaf bleached kraft pulp (LBKP) and needle bleached kraft pulp (NBKP) are preferable. The chemical pulps are suitable, for example, for the reasons that contamination of the base paper hardly occurs, temporal discoloration hardly occurs when used paper containers are collected as waste paper raw materials to be recycled, and chemical pulps have a high degree of whiteness to result in satisfactory surface touch at the time of printing so as to enhance the value in use as packaging materials.
Examples of the usable filler include heretofore known fillers such as white carbon, talc, kaolin, clay, heavy calcium carbonate, precipitated calcium carbonate, titanium oxide, zeolite and synthetic resin fillers. If necessary, the following papermaking internal aids can also be used: aluminum sulfate; various anionic, cationic, nonionic, or amphoteric yield improvers; a freeness improver, a paper-strengthening agent and an internal sizing agent. Moreover, if necessary, a dye, a fluorescent whitening agent, a pH adjuster, an antifoaming agent, a pitch control agent, and a slime control agent can also be added.
The method of the production (paper making) of the paper base material is not particularly limited; paper base materials can be produced by using heretofore known fourdrinier former, on-top hybrid former and gap former machines, and by performing paper making with acidic paper making, neutral paper making, alkaline paper making methods. The paper base material is preferably a material generally used for coated papers, having a basis weight of about 25 to 400 g/m². Moreover, the surface of the paper base material can be treated with various chemicals. Examples of the chemicals to be used may include: oxidized starch, hydroxyethyl etherified starch, oxygen-modified starch, polyacrylamide, polyvinyl alcohol, a surface sizing agent, a waterproofing agent, a water retention agent, a thickener and a lubricant; these can be used each alone or in combinations of two or more thereof. The method of the surface treatment of the paper base material is not particularly limited; however, heretofore known coating apparatuses such as a rod metering size press, a pond type size press, a gate roll coater, a spray coater, a blade coater and a curtain coater can be used.

The polymer to be used as the main component of the coating layer forming the water vapor barrier layer or the gas barrier layer is suitably a resin for which water can be used as a dispersion medium. Examples of the dosage form include a polymer aqueous solution and a form of a polymer emulsion. The polymer corresponds to the binder of the coating material for forming a coating layer.

As the resins to be included in the water vapor barrier layer, the following resins are used each alone or as mixtures of two or more thereof: copolymers such as styrene-butadiene-based, styrene-acrylic, ethylene-vinyl acetate-based, butadiene-methyl methacrylate-based, vinyl acetate-butyl acrylate-based copolymers; maleic anhydride copolymer; and acrylic acid-methyl methacrylate-based copolymer. Among these, styrene-butadiene-based resin is preferable from the viewpoint of the water vapor barrier property.
In the present invention, styrene-butadiene-based synthetic resin is a resin synthesized with emulsion polymerization by using styrene and butadiene as the main constituent monomers in combination with various comonomers aiming at modification. Examples of the comonomer include: methyl methacrylate, acrylonitrile, acrylamide and hydroxyethyl acrylate; and unsaturated carboxylic acids such as itaconic acid, maleic acid and acrylic acid.
The resins are used as emulsion-type coating materials prepared by emulsification with water as a dispersant. Examples of the emulsifier include anionic surfactants such as sodium oleate, rosin acid soap, sodium alkyl allyl sulfonate and sodium dialkyl sulfosuccinate. These can be used each alone or in combinations with nonionic surfactants. Moreover, if necessary, amphoteric or cationic surfactants may also be used.
In the present invention, the coating material to form the water vapor barrier layer preferably does not include water-repellent components such as a hydrocarbon, a silicone-based resin, a fluorine-based resin, a fatty acid and an ester between a fatty acid and an alcohol. It is to be noted that conventional packaging materials having a water vapor barrier property are generally provided with water-repellent component-containing resins. The water-repellent component degrades the affinity between the water vapor barrier layer and the gas barrier layer, and accordingly, the moisture or gas permeating from one of these layers unpreferably promotes interfacial peeling.

(On the Pigment for Addition to Water Vapor Barrier Layer)

In the present invention, the inclusion of a pigment in the water vapor barrier layer improves the water vapor barrier property, and also improves the adhesion between the water vapor barrier layer and the gas barrier layer.
The water vapor barrier property is improved by using a pigment large in particle size and a pigment small in particle size in combination.
As the large pigment, kaolin having an average particle size of 5 µm or more and an aspect ratio of 10 or more is used. A flat pigment is distributed parallel to the coating layer, the water vapor permeating into the water vapor barrier layer is blocked by the flat pigment with respect to the movement in the thickness direction and is made to move in a detour so as to elongate the path of the passage of the water vapor through the water vapor barrier layer, and hence the barrier property is improved. When the aspect ratio of the added pigment is small, the number of times of detour of the water vapor in the coating layer is decreased, accordingly the distance of the movement of the water vapor is reduced, and consequently the pigment small in aspect ratio is inferior to the flat pigment having a large particle size.
A flat pigment can be expected to have the same effect as described above on the gas barrier layer.
By adding a pigment having an average particle size of 5 µm or less to the water vapor barrier layer, in addition to the above-described flat pigment, the water vapor barrier property can be further improved. The pigment having a small particle size is not required to be flat.
In the present invention, the water vapor barrier layer further includes a pigment having an average particle size of 5 µm or less. In this way, a structure is obtained in which a pigment having an average particle size of 5 µm or less is interposed between the kaolin particles present in a multilayered manner, having an average particle size of 5 µm or more and an aspect ratio of 10 or more, and consequently, the water vapor being forced to move along the flat plane of kaolin is blocked in its movement by the smaller pigment particles. Specifically, since pigments different in flatness and average particle size are included in the water vapor barrier layer, a state occurs in which in the water vapor barrier layer, the pigment of smaller particle size is filled in the voids formed between the adjacent flat pigment particles large in particle size, accordingly the water vapor passes all the way around the pigments, and hence the water vapor barrier layer including the pigments different in average particle size exhibits a higher water vapor barrier property as compared to the water vapor barrier layer including no pigment smaller in particle size.
In the present invention, the mixing ratio between kaolin having an average particle size of 5 µm or more and an aspect ratio of 10 or more and the pigment having an average particle size of 5 µm or less is 50/50 to 99/1 in terms of dry weight. When the ratio of kaolin having an average particle size of 5 µm or more and an aspect ratio of 10 or more is smaller than the foregoing range, the detour distance of the water vapor in the coating layer is short, and hence no sufficient water vapor barrier property can be obtained. On the other hand, the ratio of kaolin having an average particle size of 5 µm or more and an aspect ratio of 10 or more is larger than the foregoing range, the voids formed by the large particle size pigment in the coating layer cannot be sufficiently filled by the pigment having an average particle size of 5 µm or less, and hence no improvement of the water vapor barrier property is found.
In the present invention, as the pigment having an average particle size of 5 µm or less the following pigments can be used each alone or as mixtures of two or more thereof: inorganic pigments such as kaolin, clay, engineered kaolin, delaminated clay, heavy calcium carbonate, precipitated calcium carbonate, talc, titanium dioxide, barium sulfate, calcium sulfate, zinc oxide, silicic acid, silicates, colloidal silica and satin white; and organic pigments such as a dense-type pigment, a hollow-type pigment, or a core-shell type pigment. Among these pigments, heavy calcium carbonate is preferable.
The mixing amounts of the resin and the pigments in the water vapor barrier layer are such that a resin is used in an amount of preferably 5 to 200 parts by weight and more preferably 20 to 150 parts by weight (dry weight) in relation to 100 parts by weight (dry weight) of the pigment. In the water vapor barrier layer, it is possible to use, in addition to the resin and the pigment, various usually used aids such as a dispersant, a thickener, a water retention agent, an antifoaming agent, a waterproofing agent, a dye and a fluorescent dye.

(Cross-Linking Agent)

In the present invention, it is preferable to add a cross-linking agent typified by a multivalent metal salt to the water vapor barrier layer. The cross-linking agent causes a cross-linking reaction with the binder included in the water vapor barrier layer, and accordingly the number of the bonds (the number of the cross-linked points) in the water vapor barrier layer is increased. In other words, the water vapor barrier layer becomes dense in structure, and consequently exhibits a satisfactory water vapor barrier property.
In the present invention, the type of the cross-linking agent is not particularly limited; the cross-linking agent appropriately according to the type of the binder included in the water vapor barrier layer from the following can be used: multivalent metal salts (the compounds produced by bonding the multivalent metals such as copper, zinc, silver, iron, potassium, sodium, zirconium, aluminum, calcium, barium, magnesium and titanium with the ionic substances such as carbonate ion, sulfate ion, nitrate ion, phosphate ion, silicate ion, nitrogen oxide and boron oxide); and amine compounds, amide compounds, aldehyde compounds, and hydroxy acids. As long as the mixing amount of the cross-linking agent allows the concentration and the viscosity of the coating material to fall within ranges permitting coating operation, the cross-linking agent can be mixed without being particularly limited with respect to the mixing amount thereof. From the viewpoint of the development of the cross-linking effect, it is preferable to use a multivalent metal salt when a styrene-based water vapor barriering resin exhibiting excellent effects in the water vapor barrier property, such as a styrene-butadiene-based resin or a styrene-acrylic-based resin is used; in particular, potassium alum is more preferable.
The addition amount of the cross-linking agent is 1 to 10 parts by weight and more preferably 3 to 5 parts by weight in relation to 100 parts by weight of the binder resin used in the water vapor barrier layer. When the addition amount of the cross-linking agent is less than 1 part by weight, no sufficient effect is obtained, and when the addition amount of the cross-linking agent is larger than 10 parts by weight, the viscosity of the coating liquid is remarkably increased to make the coating operation difficult.
In the present invention, when a cross-linking agent is added to the coating liquid to form the water vapor barrier layer, it is preferable to add the cross-linking agent to the coating liquid after the cross-linking agent is dissolved in a polar solvent such as ammonium hydroxide solution. By dissolving the cross-linking agent in a polar solvent, bonding occurs between the cross-linking agent and the polar solvent, and hence even when the cross-linking agent is mixed in the coating liquid, the cross-linking reaction with the latex does not occur instantly, so as to allow the thickening of the coating material to be suppressed. In this case, it is inferred that by drying after the coating operation on paper, polar solvent component is evaporated, the cross-linking reaction with the binder occurs, and the dense water vapor barrier layer is formed.

(Contact Angle)

In the present invention, the contact angle with water of the surface of the water vapor barrier layer disposed on the paper base material is preferably less than 90°, more preferably less than 85° and furthermore preferably less than 80°. When the contact angle with water is 90° or more, it is difficult to dispose a uniform gas barrier layer on the water vapor barrier layer, and it is difficult to exhibit a high gas barrier property. When the contact angle with water is less than 90°, it is possible to suppress the repulsion between the water vapor barrier layer and the gas barrier layer so as to suppress the peeling between these two layers. The contact angle serves as a measure with which the affinity between the water vapor barrier layer and the gas barrier layer is inferred.

In the present invention, the water soluble polymer used as the binder resin of the coating material to form the gas barrier layer is a polyvinyl alcohol resin.

(On the Pigment)

In the present invention, examples of the pigments used in the gas barrier layer include: inorganic pigments such as kaolin, clay, engineered kaolin, delaminated clay, heavy calcium carbonate, precipitated calcium carbonate, talc, titanium dioxide, barium sulfate, calcium sulfate, zinc oxide, silicic acid, silicate, colloidal silica, satin white and mica; and organic pigments such as a dense-type pigment, a hollow-type pigment and a core-shell type pigment. These can be used each alone or as mixtures of two or more thereof. Among these, from the viewpoint of the gas barrier property, it is preferable to use an inorganic pigment.
It is more preferable to use an inorganic pigment (in particular, kaolin) having an average particle size of 3 µm or more and an aspect ratio of 10 or more, and it is particularly preferable to use an inorganic pigment (in particular, kaolin) having an average particle size of 5 µm or more and an aspect ratio of 50 or more. When a pigment is included in the gas barrier layer, a gas such as oxygen passes around the pigment. Consequently, as compared to the gas barrier layer formed of a water soluble polymer including no pigment, the gas barrier layer formed of a water soluble polymer including a pigment has a satisfactory water vapor barrier property and an excellent gas barrier property in a high-humidity atmosphere.
In the present invention, the mixing ratio (in terms of dry weights) between the pigment and the water soluble polymer included in the gas barrier layer is preferably such that the ratio pigment /water soluble polymer is 1/100 to 1000/100. When the proportion of the pigment falls outside the foregoing range, no sufficient gas barrier property is exhibited.

(On the Cross-Linking Agent)

In the present invention, it is preferable to add a cross-linking agent typified by a multivalent metal salt to the gas barrier layer. The cross-linking agent bonds the hydroxyl groups in the water soluble polymer to each other through cross-linked structure, hence the amount of the hydroxyl groups having the loosened bonds (or broken bonds) when the humidity becomes high is decreased to improve the waterproofness of the whole layer, and thus the degradation of the oxygen barrier property under a high humidity can be suppressed.
In the present invention, the type of the cross-linking agent is not particularly limited; the cross-linking agent appropriately according to the type of the binder included in the water vapor barrier layer from the following can be used: multivalent metal salts (the compounds produced by bonding the multivalent metals such as copper, zinc, silver, iron, potassium, sodium, zirconium, aluminum, calcium, barium, magnesium and titanium with the ionic substances such as carbonate ion, sulfate ion, nitrate ion, phosphate ion, silicate ion, nitrogen oxide and boron oxide); and amine compounds, amide compounds, aldehyde compounds, and hydroxy acids. As long as the mixing amount of the cross-linking agent allows the concentration and the viscosity of the coating material to fall within ranges permitting coating operation, the cross-linking agent can be mixed without being particularly limited with respect to the mixing amount thereof. From the viewpoint of the development of the cross-linking effect, it is preferable to use a multivalent metal salt and it is more preferable to use potassium alum when a styrene-based water vapor barrier resin exhibiting excellent effects in the water vapor barrier property, such as a styrene-butadiene-based resin or a styrene-acrylic-based resin is used.
The addition amount of the cross-linking agent is 1 to 10 parts by weight and more preferably 3 to 5 parts by weight in relation to 100 parts by weight of the resin used in the gas barrier layer. When the addition amount of the cross-linking agent is less than 1 part by weight, no sufficient effect is obtained, and when the addition amount of the cross-linking agent is larger than 10 parts by weight, the viscosity of the coating liquid is remarkably increased to make the coating operation difficult.

(Additives)

In the present invention, when a pigment is mixed in a water soluble polymer, it is preferable to add and mix a pigment which is water-dispersed and slurried.
In the present invention, in the gas barrier layer, it is possible to use, in addition to the water soluble polymer and the pigment, various usually used aids such as a dispersant, a thickener, a water retention agent, an antifoaming agent, a waterproofing agent, a dye and a fluorescent dye.

In the present invention, the coating methods of the water vapor barrier layer and the gas barrier layer are not particularly limited, and heretofore known coating apparatuses can be used. Examples of such a coating apparatus include: a blade coater, a bar coater, a roll coater, an air knife coater, a reverse roll coater, a curtain coater, a spray coater, a size press coater and a gate roll coater. As the method for drying the coating layer, usual methods using the following are used: a steam heating heater, a gas heater, an infrared heater, an electric heater, a hot air heating heater, a microwave, and a cylinder dryer.
In the present invention, the coating amount of the water vapor barrier layer is preferably set at 4 to 30 g/m², more preferably 6 to 25 g/m² and furthermore preferably 10 to 20 g/m² in terms of dry weight. When the coating amount is 3 g/m² or less, there occur a problem that it is difficult for the coating liquid to perfectly coat the base paper, and hence no sufficient water vapor barrier property is obtained, and a problem that the gas barrier layer penetrates into the paper base material, and hence a uniform gas barrier property is not obtained. On the other hand, when the coating amount is 30 g/m² or more, the drying load at the time of coating operation becomes large, unpreferably from the viewpoint of both of the operational aspect and the cost aspect.
In the present invention, the coating amount of the gas barrier layer is preferably set at 0.2 to 10 g/m² in terms of dry weight. When the coating amount is less than 0.2 g/m², no uniform gas barrier layer can be formed, and hence there is problem that no sufficient gas barrier property is obtained. On the other hand, the coating amount is 10 g/m² or more, the drying load at the time of coating operation becomes large, unpreferably from the viewpoint of both of the operational aspect and the cost aspect.
In the present invention, it is possible to dispose a sealant layer made of a polymer such as polyethylene, polypropylene or polyvinyl acetate on the paper based barrier packaging material including a water vapor barrier layer and a gas barrier layer disposed on a paper base material. The method for laminating the sealant layer is not particularly limited; it is possible to use a conventional, heretofore known methods such as a melt-extrusion lamination method, a dry lamination method using a film and a direct melt coating method.

From the test data of Examples and Comparative Examples, the following properties can be listed.

(1) From the data of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1, 2 and 3, it can be seen that Example 1 in which a water vapor barrier layer was formed on a paper base material and further a gas barrier layer was formed on the water vapor barrier layer is low in water vapor permeability and oxygen permeability. In contrast, in Comparative Example 2 in which only the gas barrier layer is disposed, the oxygen permeability and the water vapor permeability are extremely large, and both of these barrier property functions are not exhibited; in Comparative Example 3 in which only the water vapor barrier layer is disposed and Comparative Example 1 in which the water vapor barrier layer is disposed on the gas barrier layer, the water vapor barrier property exhibits the same degree of function as in Example 1, but the gas barrier property is not observed at all. This shows the result that the moisture permeating the paper base material degraded the gas barrier layer. Accordingly, this shows the result clearly demonstrating the usefulness of the present invention in which the water vapor barrier layer is disposed on the paper base material, and further the gas barrier layer is disposed on the water vapor barrier layer.
(2) In Examples 6 and 8 in each of which potassium alum, a cross-linking agent, was added to the coating material for the water vapor barrier layer, the water vapor barrier property is more improved than Example 1.
(3) In Examples 5 and 7 in each of which large and small pigments, namely, large particle size kaolin having a large flatness and heavy calcium carbonate fine particles were used in combination in the coating material for the water vapor barrier layer, the water vapor barrier property is more improved than in Example 1.
(4) It has been able to be verified that kaolin, mica (Example 11) and montmorillonite (Example 12), which are large particle size pigments having an aspect ratio of 80 or more, are effective; in particular, kaolin having a large particle size and an aspect ratio of 80 or more exhibited a more excellent water vapor barrier property than other pigments.
(5) From the results of Examples 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9 and 10 in which large particle size kaolin, mica and montmorillonite (these are large particle size pigments) and potassium alum (cross-linking agent) were used each alone or in combination in the gas barrier layer, it is possible to suppress the degradation of the gas barrier property performance to a small extent in a high humidity environment.
(6) In the cases where the contact angle of a water drop on the water vapor barrier layer is 90 degrees (Example 13) or 80 degrees (Examples 14, 21 and 22), to be larger than the contact angles of a water drop of 75 degrees in Example 1 , the degradation of the gas barrier property performance becomes somewhat larger in a high humidity environment, and accordingly the smaller the contact angle of a water drop, the more effectively the degradation of the gas barrier property performance due to the humidity change can be prevented.
(7) The results of Examples 1, 15, 16 and 17 reveals a tendency of the water vapor barrier performance to depend on the particles size of the pigment added to the water vapor barrier layer. The gas barrier performance in a high humidity environment also shows a similar dependence on the particle size.
(8) The results of Examples 1, 14, 18, 19, 20 and 21 has verified that as the binder resin used in the coating material to form the water vapor barrier layer, the styrene-butadiene-based copolymer and the acrylic copolymer are useful.
(9) It has been able to be verified that the coating amount (dry weight) of the water vapor barrier layer falling within a range from 6 to 15g/m² and the coating amount (dry weight) of the gas barrier layer falling within a range from 1 to 4 g/m² allow a sufficient water vapor barrier property and a sufficient gas barrier property to be exhibited, respectively.
