Abstract

PURPOSE:To produce the title film having a high air permeability suitable for use in paper napkins, etc., by stretching a film prepared from a composition comprising a specified propylene copolymer resin and an inorganic filler at a temperature in a specified range. CONSTITUTION:A film prepared from a composition comprising 42-87vol% propylene/alpha-olefin copolymer resin (A) and 58-13vol% inorganic filler (B) is stretched in at least one direction at a temperature of the m.p. of resin A-100 deg.C to the m.p. of resin A-25 deg.C. By the use of resin A, filler B can be finely dispersed in resin A to form fine voids and enable uniform communication, so that in a high air permeability propylene resin film can be produced in co-operation with the use of said stretch temperature. By virtue of said properties, this film can be suitably used in sanitary materials such as paper diapers and physiological articles such as sanitary napkins, packaging materials, etc.

Problems to be Solved by the Hira Invention As mentioned above, a film made of a composition of propylene resin and an inorganic filler! At present, the conventional method of producing a breathable film by stretching in at least one direction has not been able to produce a propylene-based resin film with a high degree of breathability. The present invention was made with the aim of solving this problem in the manufacturing method. 0) Means for solving all the problems The method for manufacturing a breathable propylene resin film of the present invention uses a co-propylene-α-olefin. A film consisting of a composition of polymeric resins 4 to 87 is coated with the propylene-α-
It is characterized by stretching in at least one direction at a temperature in the range of 100°C to 25°C lower than the melting point of the olefin copolymer resin.

The olefin content is preferably from 0.2 to 20% by weight, particularly preferably from 0.5 to 15% by weight. If the α-olefin content is low, the dispersibility of the inorganic filler will be poor, resulting in poor stretchability, and it will be difficult to connect voids, and if the α-olefin content is too high, In this case, it becomes more difficult to generate voids by stretching, and in any case, it becomes difficult to obtain a film having good air permeability.

Inorganic fillers include calcium carbonate, calcium oxide, Merck, clay, silica, titanium oxide, alumina, aluminum sulfate, etc., and can be used alone or in a mixed state. Preferred forms of the inorganic filler include:
They are spherical, granular, irregular shapes, etc. other than plate-like, rod-like, and needle-like.
Its average particle size is 0.1-5μ, preferably 0.6-3μ
It is. If the average particle size is less than 0.1μ, the film will not elongate during stretching, making it difficult to stretch, and if it exceeds 5μ, the surface of the stretched film will become rough, making it undesirable as a breathable film. Continuous stable stretchability is impaired in film production.

The composition ratio of the propylene-α-olefin copolymer resin and the inorganic filler is such that the propylene-α-olefin copolymer resin is 42 to 87 volume parts, preferably 55 to 80 volume parts, and the inorganic filler is 58 to 13 parts. It is preferably in the range of 45 to 20 volumes. Is the inorganic filler not 13 volumes thick? ! When it becomes 4, the interface between the provin no α-olefin copolymer resin and the inorganic filler peels off, and the bonds that are in contact with each other no longer communicate with each other, making it impossible to obtain air permeability. Also, 58
When the volume exceeds 1, the film loses its elongation during stretching, making stretching difficult.
