  In this laminated film, there is one in which a sealant film used as a heat-sealing material on the inner surface of the laminated film is laminated on a base film, and as the material of the base film, for example, a polyethylene resin is used, and the sealant film is used. As the material, a linear low-density polyethylene-based resin is used as a laminate, for example, with an intermediate layer sandwiched therebetween.

As described above, a polyethylene resin, which is a plastic resin, is often used as the material for the laminated film. Conventionally, this polyethylene resin is produced by petrochemical origin using petroleum as a starting material. The linear low-density polyethylene-based resin described above contains ethylene obtained by refining crude oil and the like, and α-olefin as a comonomer species in the presence of a metallocene catalyst in a gas phase at a high temperature such as 120° C. or higher.

  However, as the awareness of environmental issues such as global warming due to an increase in carbon dioxide emissions increases along with the intention to save depleted resources such as petroleum, polyethylene-based resins derived from petroleum, as described above, are used in the production of petrochemical products and in the disposal. In the meantime, a large amount of fixed carbon dioxide contained in the petroleum raw material will be discharged, so that the above intention cannot be met.

  Based on these problems, in recent years, the development of technology for producing plastics from plants, which are carbon neutral and renewable resources, is progressing. Among them, polyethylene, which is most produced among plastics, is The technology for producing sugarcane of the system as a starting material has been established. (Conversion Tech 20099.9, P63-67, edited by Processing Technology Research Group) It should be noted that carbon neutral means that carbon dioxide absorption during plant growth and carbon dioxide emission during combustion are substantially the same. Say.

  FIG. 1 is a flow diagram showing an example of production of polyethylene derived from sugar cane, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional side view schematically showing a film made of a linear low-density polyethylene-based resin derived from sugar cane of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, the sugar solution taken out from the sugar cane cut from the field is heated and concentrated to separate the crystallized crude sugar from the waste sugar dense by a centrifuge. The spent sugar concentrate is then diluted with water to an appropriate concentration and fermented with yeast to produce ethanol. Then, by heating this bioethanol, ethylene obtained by the intramolecular dehydration reaction in the presence of a catalyst is polymerized by a polymerization catalyst to obtain polyethylene. It should be noted that plant-derived ethylene and polyethylene have been confirmed to be equivalent in quality to petroleum-derived ethylene and polyethylene.

  Therefore, the linear low-density polyethylene-based resin used in the film of the present invention is produced from ethylene derived from plant-derived starting materials as described above. It can be obtained by copolymerizing plant-derived ethylene and α-olefin by a gas phase polymerization method in the presence of a metallocene catalyst, as in the case of producing a chain low density polyethylene resin.

  In the present invention, it is used as a laminated film by producing a film forming a laminated film that constitutes a container or a packaging bag using the plant-derived linear low-density polyethylene-based resin obtained as described above. In resin compositions (such as linear low-density polyethylene-based resins), the usage ratio of petroleum-derived resin compositions can be reduced to save petroleum resources and contribute to the environment improvement by reducing carbon dioxide emissions. To do.

  In the present application, a linear low-density polyethylene system derived from sugar cane obtained by the gas phase polymerization method (not limited to sugar cane and any other plant that is a raw material for producing a linear low-density polyethylene resin) may be used. The resin composition 1 made of a resin can be used to form a film F1 as shown in FIG.

The linear low-density polyethylene-based resin derived from sugar cane, like the linear low-density polyethylene-based resin derived from petroleum, has a comonomer species of butene-1 (C4) and a density of 910 to 925 kg/m ³ , Melt flow rate (MFR) is in the range of 0.5 to 4.0 g/10 minutes,
More preferably, the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer can be used because it can have various physical properties of 0.7 to 3.5 g/10 min. The resin composition comprising such a linear low-density polyethylene-based resin derived from sugar cane is contained in an appropriate proportion with respect to the linear low-density polyethylene-based resin derived from petroleum as an upper limit of 90% by weight.

In the above-mentioned physical property evaluation, the density (d, unit: kg/m ³ ) was measured according to JIS K 6760 (1981) using a sheet having a thickness of 1 mm obtained by press molding at 150°C. Is. Further, the melt flow rate (MFR, unit: g/10 minutes) is measured according to JIS K 7210 (1995) under a test temperature of 190° C. and a test load of 21.18 N.

Furthermore, the sugarcane-derived polyethylene-based resin has a biomass degree by radiocarbon dating ¹⁴ C of 80 to 100%, for example, a linear low-density polyethylene-based resin having a biomass degree of 87%, or 95 A low density polyethylene resin having a biomass degree of% is used.

Here, the plant (biomass)-derived and petroleum-derived resin compositions have no difference in physical properties such as molecular weight, mechanical properties, and thermal properties. Therefore, the biomass degree is generally used to distinguish them. At this biomass level, the carbon of the resin composition derived from petroleum does not contain ¹⁴ C (radiocarbon 14, half-life of 5730 years), so the concentration of this ¹⁴ C was measured by accelerator mass spectrometry, and In the composition, it is used as an index of the content ratio of the plant-derived resin composition. Therefore, in the case of a film using a plant-derived resin composition, when the biomass degree of the film is measured, the biomass degree according to the content of the plant-derived resin composition is generated.

In the measurement of the biomass degree, a sample to be measured is burned to generate carbon dioxide, and carbon dioxide purified in a vacuum line is reduced with hydrogen using iron as a catalyst to generate graphite. Then, the graphite was attached to the tandem accelerator ¹⁴ C-AMS-only apparatus which is based on (manufactured by NEC Corp.), ¹⁴ C counts, the ¹³ C concentration ⁽¹³ C / ¹² C), the ¹⁴ C concentration ⁽¹⁴ was measured for C / ¹² C), it calculates the ratio of the ¹⁴ C concentration of the sample carbon to standard modern carbon from the measurement value. In this measurement, oxalic acid (HOxII) provided by the National Bureau of Standards (NIST) was used as a standard sample.

  In the present application, by forming a film composed of such a resin composition, from the state of relying on the petroleum-derived resin composition, the petroleum-derived polyethylene-based resin, the petroleum-derived polyethylene-based resin and performance By mixing (substituting) a plant-based polyethylene resin such as sugar cane, which makes no difference, it is possible to suppress carbon dioxide emissions during film production and disposal.

The resin composition 1 of the present invention is an ethylene-α-olefin copolymer in which the comonomer species is butene-1, the density is 910 to 920 kg/m ³ , and the melt flow rate is 0.70 to 1.30 g/10 minutes. Therefore, since there is no difference in physical properties from the polyethylene-based resin derived from petroleum, the existing film manufacturing process can be used, and the raw material can be switched without impairing the processability of the packaging material.

Furthermore, since the resin composition 1 of the present invention is an ethylene-α-olefin copolymer having a biomass degree calculated from the measured value of ¹⁴ C for radiocarbon dating, it is derived from the raw material of the polyethylene resin constituting the film. The biomass degree can be used as an index for identification, and the origin material from the time the film is manufactured to the time it is discarded can be confirmed.

  Next, in the present application, the resin composition 1 described above and the petroleum-derived polyethylene-based resin 2 described below can be formed into the following film. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional side view schematically showing a film having a single-layer structure in which a resin composition and a polyethylene resin derived from petroleum are mixed, and FIG. 4 is a film having a multilayer structure in which an intermediate layer is a resin composition. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional side view schematically showing a film having a multilayer structure in which the intermediate layer is a layer in which the resin composition and the petroleum-derived polyethylene resin are mixed.

  In this case, 5 to 90% by weight of the resin composition 1 and 10 to 95% by weight of the petroleum-derived polyethylene resin 2 are formed into a film in the following procedure (A), (B) or (C). Configured. First, as the film F2 of (A), as shown in FIG. 3, it is possible to have a single-layer structure in which the resin composition 1 and the polyethylene-based resin 2 derived from petroleum are mixed.

  Further, as the film F3 of (B), as shown in FIG. 4, it is possible to have a multilayer structure in which the intermediate layer is the resin composition 1 and the outer layer and the inner layer are the petroleum-derived polyethylene resin 2.

  Further, as the film F4 of (C), as shown in FIG. 5, the intermediate layer is a layer obtained by mixing the resin composition 1 and the petroleum-derived polyethylene resin 2, and the outer layer and the inner layer are the petroleum-derived polyethylene resin 2. It is also possible to have a multilayer structure.

  With such a configuration, the use ratio of the polyethylene-based resin 2 forming the films F2 to F4 derived from petroleum can be reduced, and the carbon dioxide emission amount at the time of film production and disposal can be suppressed. In addition, by using the petroleum-derived polyethylene-based resin 2 for the inner and outer layers constituting the films F3 to F4 such as (B) or (C), the films F3 to F4 can be manufactured with the characteristics that the existing manufacturing process has. You can

  Next, in the present application, a laminated film using the films F1 to F4 can be formed. FIG. 6 is a sectional side view schematically showing an example of a laminated film, and FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing a standing pouch as an example of a packaging bag formed using the laminated film of the present invention.

  First, as shown in FIG. 6, the laminated film 3 is laminated with the base film 5 using any of the films F1 to F4 as the sealant film 4.

  Examples of the base film 5 include polyethylene resin, polypropylene resin, cyclic polyolefin resin, polystyrene resin, acrylonitrile-styrene copolymer (AS resin), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS resin). ), polyvinyl chloride resin, fluorine resin, poly(meth)acrylic resin, polycarbonate resin, polyester resin such as polyethylene terephthalate and polyethylene naphthalate, polyamide resin such as various nylons, polyimide resin, polyamide Use various resin films or sheets such as imide resin, polyaryl phthalate resin, silicone resin, polysulfone resin, polyphenylene sulfide resin, polyether sulfone resin, polyurethane resin, acetal resin, cellulose resin, etc. You can

  With such a configuration, even in the sealant film 4 used for heat sealing, the petroleum-derived use ratio of the polyethylene-based resin forming each of the films F1 to F4 that is the sealant film 4 can be reduced, It is possible to save resources and suppress the carbon dioxide emissions at the time of manufacturing and discarding the laminated film 3.

  Using the laminated film 3 as described above, the sealant film 4 surfaces of the two side sheets 7 and 8 made of the laminated film 3 are arranged to face each other, and the sealant film 4 is provided on at least one surface at the lower end of the laminated film 3. A bottom sheet 9 composed of laminated laminates is formed into a form having a gusset portion by mountain-folding with the sealant film 4 surface as an outer surface and inserting the bottom sheet. In the vicinity, a cutout portion of a substantially semicircular bottom sheet is provided, and the gusset portion is heat-sealed by a bottom seal portion having a ship bottom shape including a peripheral portion to form a bottom portion.

  Then, both side edge portions of the two side sheets 7 and 8 on the front and back sides are heat-sealed at the side edge seal portions to form a body portion, and the upper end portion is left to be a filling port for contents. A pouch (packaging bag 6) manufactured in the form of a standing pouch as shown is formed. Then, the upper seal portion provided at the filling port at the upper end portion is filled with the contents from this portion and then heat-sealed by, for example, a deaeration seal or the like to seal the contents. Although not shown, a spout may be formed on the upper portion of the body with a laser to provide a cut line for opening.

  With such a configuration, the use ratio of the polyethylene-based resin derived from petroleum in the laminated film 3 forming the packaging bag 6 can be reduced, and the petroleum resources can be saved and the packaging bag 6 can be manufactured and discarded at the time of disposal. Carbon dioxide emissions can be suppressed. In particular, since this packaging bag 6 is a standing pouch for refilling, it is possible to reduce the use ratio of petroleum-derived polyethylene-based resin that constitutes such a packaging bag, which is widely used as a disposable bag, and to greatly reduce carbon dioxide emissions. You can

In addition to the packaging bag 6 exemplified by the above-mentioned standing pouch, polyethylene films are used by using the films F1 to F4 made of the resin composition 1 of the present invention and the laminated film 3 using these films F1 to F4. A container including a laminated tube, a liquid paper container or the like for containing contents such as food and drink, cosmetics, chemicals, and miscellaneous goods, a lid material of the container, or a container, which is composed of the resin composition 1 using a resin It is possible to configure such a label, and to further reduce the use ratio derived from petroleum and to greatly reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

  Next, an example of a film constituted by using the plant-derived polyethylene resin (resin composition 1) of the present invention will be described.

  Using a screw diameter 30 mmφ extruder, 200% of Braskem Co. C4LL-LL118 (d=0.916, MFR=1.0 g/10 min), which is a linear low-density polyethylene resin derived from sugar cane (resin composition 1), is used. Melt kneading was performed at 0° C. to obtain a resin composition. Then, the resin composition is molded under a processing condition of an extrusion temperature of 200° C. and a rotation speed of 60 rpm by a top-blown air-cooled inflation coextrusion film-forming machine to obtain a film F1 shown in FIG. It was possible to form a film, and its biomass degree was measured to be about 88%. In addition, butene-1 (C4), which is a comonomer species contained in the straight-chain low-density polyethylene-based resin derived from sugar cane, is derived from petroleum, and the content thereof is 1 to 15% by weight (the same applies hereinafter).

The layer ratio of the first layer: the second layer: the third layer was 1:2:1. Next, the resin composition was molded into a film F4 having a thickness of 130 μm shown in FIG. 5 under the processing conditions of an extrusion temperature of 200° C. and a rotation speed of 60 rpm by a two-kind three-layer top-blowing air-cooled inflation coextrusion film forming machine, and the biomass degree Was about 22%.

A two-component curing type urethane adhesive was used by using a biaxially stretched nylon film (ONy, Toyobo Haden N-1102) as the substrate film 5 having a thickness of 25 μm for the outer layer and the film F4 of Example 4. , ONy surface is coated with the adhesive at about 4 g/m ² and the corona-treated surface of polyethylene is laminated by a dry lamination method to obtain a laminated film 3 having a two-layer structure shown in FIG. Was about 18%.

  Then, using this laminated film 3, a refillable standing pouch (packing bag 6) with a spout part provided with a laser cut line is created, and the contents are put into this refillable standing pouch to open the mouth. Regarding the sealed one, the contents were leaked, fallen, buckled, and the body was broken, but none were observed. Further, a drop test was conducted 5 times from a height of 1 m, but no bag breakage or leakage was observed.

The outer layer has a thickness of 25 μm, a biaxially stretched nylon film (ONy, Toyobo Haden N-1102) as the base film 5, and the intermediate layer has a thickness of 12 μm VMPET (metal evaporated film, which is aluminum vapor-deposited on one surface, A polyethylene terephthalate film (aluminum deposited on a polyethylene terephthalate film) is laminated on the aluminum vapor-deposited surface, and further, a two-component curing type urethane adhesive is applied on the polyethylene terephthalate surface of VMPET at about 4 g/m ² to obtain a film F4 of Example 4. The laminated film 3 having a three-layer structure was obtained by laminating the corona-treated surface of No. 1 with the dry lamination method. Then, using this laminated film 3, a refilling standing pouch (packing bag 6) with a spout for opening was provided by a laser, and the biomass degree was measured to be about 17%.

  Leakage, falling, buckling, and bending of the body were observed in the prepared refill standing pouch with the contents sealed and the mouth sealed, but none were observed. Further, a drop test was conducted 5 times from a height of 1 m, but no bag breakage, leakage, etc. were observed.

  Only the bottom material in the refillable standing pouch with the spout of Example 6 was used as a refillable standing pouch made using a petroleum-derived film made of stretched polyamide (ONY)/LLDPE (linear low-density polyethylene). Leakage, tipping, buckling, and bending of the body of the product with the mouth sealed was observed, but none were observed. Further, a drop test was conducted 5 times from a height of 1 m, but no bag breakage, leakage, etc. were observed. Therefore, for the bottom material of the standing pouch of the present invention, either the laminated film 3 containing the same plant-derived material as the body portion or the petroleum-derived film may be used.
