2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, packaging materials used for packaging foods, pharmaceuticals, precision electronic parts, etc., suppress deterioration of contents, particularly oxidation and deterioration of proteins and oils and fats in the food field.
In order to maintain taste and freshness, to suppress deterioration of active ingredients and maintain efficacy in the pharmaceutical field, and to prevent corrosion of metal parts and insulation failure in the precision electronic parts field. In addition, it is necessary to prevent the influence of oxygen, water vapor, and other gases that alter the contents of the packaging material, and it is required to have a gas barrier property that blocks these gases. For this reason, the surface is coated with metal foil such as aluminum, aluminum-deposited film or resin film such as polyvinyl alcohol, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, polyvinylidene chloride, polyacrylonitrile, etc. Films and the like have been generally used as packaging materials as gas barrier materials.

However, a packaging material using a metal foil such as aluminum or an aluminum vapor-deposited film has excellent gas barrier properties. However, not only cannot the contents be seen through the packaging material, but also the disposal of the waste material after use has occurred. In some cases, it has disadvantages such as that it must be treated as a non-combustible material and that a metal detector cannot be used when inspecting the contents after packaging. Further, a gas barrier resin film or a film coated with a gas barrier resin has a large temperature / humidity dependency and cannot always maintain high gas barrier properties.
Further, there is a problem that the resin containing chlorine may cause generation of harmful substances at the time of disposal or incineration.

However, among the above-mentioned inorganic oxides, the raw materials for vapor deposition of magnesium oxide and calcium oxide, for example, have a boiling point of 36% for magnesium oxide.
The sublimation temperature is as high as 00 ° C. and the boiling point of calcium oxide is 2850 ° C., so that the evaporation rate in the vapor deposition step becomes slow. Therefore, 2 which is sufficient to exhibit gas barrier properties
If you try to deposit a thin film of about 00mm thickness,
The film formation time is long, the production efficiency is low, and this leads to high cost, which is not commercially viable. Further, when magnesium oxide or calcium oxide is vapor-deposited in a single layer on a transparent base film, the moisture in the air is absorbed over time to deteriorate the gas barrier property, which is unsuitable as a gas barrier material.

After holding at 0% RH for 5 days, the water vapor barrier property under a high temperature and high humidity condition is greatly reduced. From these facts, it was found that the high water vapor barrier film of Example 1 of the present invention can maintain good water vapor barrier properties not only in the initial stage but also over time.

The high water vapor barrier film of the present invention is obtained by forming x and y of aluminum oxide (Alx0y) on a transparent base film in the thickness direction from the side close to the base film.
Is continuously changed from x: y = 2: 2 to 2: 4, so that it has transparency so that the contents can be seen through and various gas barriers required in the field of packaging. It has excellent water vapor barrier properties that are not affected by temperature and humidity, so even after various processes such as bonding with other materials, bag making and molding, it has excellent quality preservability of the contents, Can be widely used in the packaging field.
