Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a multi-chamber container, and more particularly to a multi-chamber container comprising a resin film or sheet formed into a bag shape by heat-sealing and having a partition portion formed therein.
  • Such multi-chamber containers have been used for filling and packaging various products comprising two or more components which are mixed together immediately before use thereof, for example, foods and beverages such as retort foods, drugs, cosmetics, chemical products such as adhesives, sundries such as disposable body warmers, etc.
  • peripheral portions thereof which are communicated with an outside are required to have a sufficient heat-seal strength, and further it is important that the partition portion provided within the containers is substantially free from peeling-off between resin films or sheets constituting the same upon production and transportation thereof, and exhibit a heat-seal strength to such an extent that the resin films or sheets are readily peeled off from each other by hands or suitable equipments upon use (mixing).
  • the heat-sealing temperature range capable of forming the peelable partition portion is generally as narrow as 10° C or lower, there arises such a problem that a slight change of the heat-sealing temperature tends to cause extreme change in heat-seal strength. Therefore, upon formation of the partition portion, it may become very difficult to control the temperature of a heat-sealing mold used therefor, resulting in high occurrence rate of defective products. This is because the mass production of the multi-chamber containers is inhibited.

  • the above-prepared laminated sheet was successively subjected to bag-making process for production of the multi-chamber container, filling with liquid drug and heat- and pressure-sterilization, measurement for transparency (haze) of the multi-chamber container before and after high-temperature high-pressure sterilization treatment, and heat-sealing test, by the same method as defined in Example 1 except that the heat-sealing temperature was changed from 160 to 200° C. at intervals of 10° C., thereby forming 5 kinds of sealed portions.
  • the results of measurement for transparency of the sealed portions are shown in Table 2 below together with the results of measurement for tensile modulus of the laminated sheet.
  • Example 1 Heat-sealing Seal strength (Kgf/15 mm) temperature (° C.)
  • Example 1 Comp.
  • Example 1 110 0.1 (lack of seal — strength) 120 0.2 (weak seal) — 130 0.5 (weak seal) — 140 1.2 (weak seal) — 150 3.5 (strong seal) — 160 4.3 (strong seal) 0.1 (lack of seal strength) 170 4.8 (strong seal) 0.2 (weak seal) 180 5.0 (strong seal) 3.9 (strong seal) 190 4.2 (strong seal) 3.8 (strong seal) 200 4.0 (strong seal) 3.6 (strong seal) 210 4.0 (strong seal) — 220 4.2 (strong seal) — T1 120 170 T2 145 175 T2 ⁇ T1 25 5
  • a multi-chamber container comprising a resin film or sheet formed into a bag shape by heat-sealing and having a partition portion provided therein wherein the difference in heat-seal strength between the partition portion and peripheral portions of the container can be increased as compared to conventional containers. Further, upon formation of the partition portion, it is possible to easily control the temperature of a heat-sealing mold.
  • the multi-chamber container of the present invention is excellent in safety, flexibility, transparency and heat resistance and, therefore, can be suitably used in medical applications. Thus, the present invention is remarkably valuable from the industrial viewpoint.
