Definitions
- the present invention relates to an adhesive compositions, facestocks and/or packaging labels containing same, where such compositions, facestocks and/or labels are designed to facilitate the recyclability of a plastic article formed from any suitable polymer or mixture of polymers (e.g., a polyethylene terephthalate (PET), high density polyethylene (HDPE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), low density polyethylene (LDPE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), or others of all plastic types), or even glass bottles.
- PET polyethylene terephthalate
- HDPE high density polyethylene
- PVC polyvinyl chloride
- LDPE low density polyethylene
- PP polypropylene
- PS polystyrene
- the present invention relates to a method for removing an adhesive composition, facestock and/or packaging label containing same, from a plastic article that is to be recycled.
- polymer packaging articles particularly those made of thermoplastic polymers
- thermoplastic polymers have been increasing year after year because of their excellent resistance to breakage, lightweight properties, and transparency as compared with conventional bottles made of glass, metals, or other materials.
- the conversion from conventional packaging articles to polymer packaging articles has progressed most rapidly in the beverage industry where plastic, or polymer, packaging articles are used in great quantity.
- PET polyethylene terephthalate
- PET bottles are fitted with various labels, for example, stretch labels made of polyolefins; heat-shrinkable labels made of polyesters, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, or other polymers; and tack labels made of polypropylene or other polymers.
- stretch labels made of polyolefins
- heat-shrinkable labels made of polyesters, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, or other polymers

- the adhesive can come from the group of solvent adhesives, emulsion adhesives, cold stick adhesives, radiation curable adhesives, and hot melt adhesives or any combination or layer combination of the above.
- the adhesive composition It is important to remove as much, or even all, of the adhesive composition from the surface of the polymer, or plastic, packaging article as the presence of an adhesive composition contamination in a typical recycle process for PET, for example, can cause color change haze shift and inconsistent recycled product. Additionally, due in part to the present invention's choice of adhesive, the amount of the overall label material, the label's adhesive material, and/or the label's facestock material left on the recycled article is substantially reduced and/or eliminated. As is known to those of skill in the art, contamination of a PET recycle stream by label material, or facestock material can cause failure in the recycle process to occur due to a variety of reasons (e.g., excessive haze or discoloration, char, fiber/contaminates, dirt count, etc.).
- caustic wash process any suitable caustic wash process can be utilized in conjunction with the present invention.
- caustic washes include, but are not limited to, NaOH, KOH, LiOH, MgOH, CaOH, or suitable mixtures of two or more thereof. It can also contain other agents to aid in the effectiveness of the caustic solution such as Triton X-100.
- Triton X-100 (C 14 H 22 O(C 2 H 4 O) n ) is a nonionic surfactant which has a hydrophilic polyethylene oxide group (on average it has 9.5 ethylene oxide units) and a hydrocarbon lipophilic or hydrophobic group.
- the hydrocarbon group is a 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)-phenyl group. It is related to the Pluronic range of detergents marketed by BASF.
- the pluronics are triblock copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide.
- the part formed from ethylene oxide is more hydrophilic than the part from propylene oxide.
- Triton X-100 is very viscous at room temperature and is thus easiest to use after being gently warmed. It should be noted that individual reclaim facilities will use a multitude of special additives and processes (such as agitation, air allutriation, mechanical separation, chemical additives, wet grinding, friction washing, pressure washes).
- the examples given above are a generalized process, and may vary from facility to facility in the industry.
- FIG. 1 is a cross-section illustration of a facestock and/or label 100 for use on a polymer, or plastic, packaging article in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
- Label 100 is comprised of at least two layers, a print, or face, layer 102 and an adhesive layer 104 .
- Adhesive layer 104 is, as discussed above, selected based on the ability of a caustic wash (e.g., a caustic wash utilizing NaOH) to dissolve, dissociate, or cause the adhesive composition to release from an underlying polymer, or plastic, surface without the need for further processing steps to render the underlying polymer, or plastic, packaging article suitable for a recycling process.
- a caustic wash e.g., a caustic wash utilizing NaOH
- label 100 can further include one or more layers additional non-disclosed layers or one or more additives to any layer present that either facilitate the use of a caustic wash to remove label 100 from the packaging material that is destined for recycling, or that impart a useful property or characteristic to label 100 (e.g., printability, UV-resistance, etc.).
- additional additive materials include, but are not limited to, any suitable type of surfactant (e.g., one or more nonionic surfactants, one or more ionic surfactants, one or more amphoteric surfactants, or suitable combinations thereof), polymer processing aids, UV-protectants, etc.
- a suitable surfactant is Triton X-100.
- the pH of the adhesive material should be selected such that the caustic material utilized in the wash process is able to dissolve, dissociate, or cause the adhesive composition to release from an underlying polymer, or plastic, surface without the need for further processing steps to render the underlying polymer, or plastic, packaging article suitable for a recycling process.
- the pH of the adhesive material is between about 0.1 and about 7.
- composition of the adhesive One additional factor that is considered when selecting an adhesive composition for layer 104 is the composition of the adhesive. Adhesives with compositions that yield hydrophilic properties will allow for absorption of water and the caustic solution, and aid in the speed of dissociation of the adhesive.
- an adhesive composition with a low adhesion at an elevated temperature of more than about 50° C., or more than about 55° C., or more than about 60° C., or even more than about 65° C., is utilized.
- the advantage of using an adhesive composition with a low adhesion, or tack, at an elevated temperature is that this facilitates the adhesive to release when the polymer, or plastic, packaging article is subjected to the initial process to remove the packaging label prior to recycling of the underlying package.
- layer 102 is selected so that the permeability, integrity and/or chemical properties thereof are selected so that the caustic material utilized to remove facestock 100 will sufficiently permeate through and/or around layer 102 so as to reach a suitable amount of the adhesive in layer 104 in order to facilitate the dissociation, or release, of layer 104 from the surface of the polymer, or plastic, packaging article in a desired amount of time. Also of consideration in the choice of layer 102 is to make sure that the choice of material utilized in layer 102 permits enough of, or all of, the adhesive composition in layer 104 to be removed from the surface of the polymer, or plastic, packaging article.
- layer 102 is selected so the dimensional stability in heat based on the shrinkage type, amount and direction thereof is chosen such that layer 102 shrinks when subject to heat during the caustic wash process thereby permitting additional access to the adhesive portion of a facestock in accordance with the present invention.
- layer 102 is selected from materials that are permeable to the caustic materials utilized during a caustic wash process.
- layer 102 can be selected from certain paper materials that allow caustic washes (NaOH, water, etc.) to penetrate there through.
- layer 102 can also be designed to dissolve, or dissociate, when exposed to a caustic wash step thereby exposing the upper surface of adhesive layer 104 for attack by the caustic and therefore removal from the surface of the polymer, or plastic, packaging article.
- layer 102 can be formed from any suitable polymeric or paper facestock material.
- suitable polymeric or paper facestock material include, but are not limited to, paper facestocks, olefin polymer facestocks (e.g., polyethylene facestocks, polypropylene facestocks, etc.), polystyrene facestocks, or PET facestocks.
- the facestocks of the present invention can be unaxially oriented, biaxially oriented, or unoriented.
- layer 102 can be formed from two or more individual layers with the material utilized to form each layer being appropriately selected from those listed above.
- layer 102 can contain a topcoat layer, a print layer, and any suitable number of intermediate layers (not shown) prior to being attached to the upper, or top, surface of adhesive layer 104 .
- the bottom surface of adhesive layer 104 can have a release liner attached thereto prior to placement of facestock 100 on a desired surface of a polymer, or plastic, packaging article. Suitable release liner materials include, but are not limited to, those detailed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,084,317 the disclosure of which is incorporated herein in its entirety.
- any suitable release liner material, or construction, that is designed for use with olefin-, paper- or PET-based facestocks can be utilized in conjunction with the present invention.
- the release line of the present invention can be any material that is suitable for use in conjunction with the one or more adhesive materials disclosed above.
- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional illustration of a facestock and/or label for use on a polymer, or plastic, packaging article in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention.
- facestock 200 of FIG. 2 facestock 200 further contains a topcoat layer 206 and a release liner 208 .
- any layers in the facestocks of the present invention can be varied as desired depending upon a number of factors including, but not limited to, facestock construction, the intended use of the facestock, the material utilized to produce the various layers of a facestock, etc.
- the bottom surface of adhesive layer 104 can have formed therein various micro-channels to permit the inflow, via capillary action, of a caustic material when the adhesive layer is placed on a surface of a polymer, or plastic, packaging article.
- the outer surface, or a portion thereof, of the polymer, or plastic, packaging article can have various micro-channels, micro-perforations, cavitation, or micro-patterns, to permit the inflow, via capillary action, of a caustic material to the underside of adhesive layer 104 when layer 104 is placed there over.
- the surface of the polymer, or plastic, packaging article can have an appropriate lack of smoothness so as to facilitate the release of the adhesive material in layer 104 from the surface of the polymer, or plastic, packaging article.
- the polymer, or plastic, packaging article can contain therein a release agent (e.g., a silicon release agent) that can be activate by the caustic wash and thereby aid in the removal of the adhesive material in layer 104 from the surface of the polymer, or plastic, packaging article.
- a release agent e.g., a silicon release agent
- layer 102 can be selected to have dimensional shrinkage in either one of, or both of, the machine direction, or cross-sectional direction, so as to aid in exposing additional surface area of adhesive layer 104 for attack by the caustic wash.
- one or more of the above design factors can be considered when designing a facestock, or label, in accordance with the present invention. Also, should the facestock, or label, of the present invention possess multiple layers above the adhesive layer thereof each individual layer thereof is designed taking into consideration one or more of the above factors.
- the present invention makes possible the removal of a facestock, or label from the surface of a polymer, or plastic, packaging article via the use of a single caustic wash step.
- the caustic solution for use in the above examples is a 3 gallon solution of 0.1 percent NaOH that is formed from mixing 125 grams NaOH pellets with 12,376 grams of water in 5 gallon pail by adding the water in twelve 1000 gram increments and then adding the last 376 grams of water.
- a surfactant is then added at a concentration 0.3 percent by volume by adding 35.27 mL of Triton X-100 to 100 grams of water and then adding the resulting mixture to the 0.1 percent solution of NaOH in the 5 gallon pail.
- the resulting mixture is then gently stirred with a steel rod (mixing blade) to ensure that the Triton X-100 is thoroughly dispersed in the solution.
- PS polystyrene
- PET polyethylene terephthalate
- PET shows significant loss in area (42.25 percent) while PS shows very little (1.04 percent).
- PET curls more when exposed to heat versus PS which only shows very slight curl—see FIG. 3 ).
- the change in exposed surface area seen in the PET sample contributes to the ability of the caustic to reach the interface between the substrate and adhesive in the label construction.
- PET and PS containers are cut into suitably sized squares for observation using 2 ⁇ 2 inch dies.
- the samples used are taken out of the flat section on the lid of a suitable container.
- caustic is then placed in 100 mL beakers and heated on a hot plate under ambient conditions until it reached 85° C.
- the samples are then placed on office store binder clips and hung across a stainless steel rod.
- the samples are then submerged in the caustic wash solution for 15 minutes.
- the samples are removed from the caustic solution and are rinsed with water to remove any residual solution.
- the samples are measured using a ruler to the nearest 1/32 of an inch. The data is collected and shown below in Table 2.
- the area of each sample is calculated by multiplying the base by the height of the sample. Measurements are taken from material after it is uncurled and an average of all three samples is taken (see Table 3). See FIG. 3 for a visual of the curl.
- the original size of all samples is 4 square inches.
- the change in area is taken as a percentage by dividing the original size minus the sample average value by the original size of the sample and is 42.25 percent for PET and 1.04 percent for PS.
- the samples in the left column are the PS samples and the samples in the right column are the PET samples.
- the PET and PS exhibited significantly different shrink when exposed to caustic. This contributes to how much surface area is exposed between the adhesive and substrate interface during the recycling process. Thus the rate and amount the PET is shrinking has an effect on what materials work on this substrate.
- the PET also showed more curl than the PS which may also contribute to the success of a label and an adhesive with this combination.

- PET Panels Part STND 198418 from Sabic Polymer Shapes
- PET Thermoforms from ParPack shipped from NAPCOR (National Association of PET Container Resources) compliant with APR protocol.
- the caustic solution for use in these examples is a 3 gallon solution of 0.1 percent NaOH that is formed from mixing 125 grams NaOH pellets with 12,376 grams of water in 5 gallon pail by adding the water in twelve 1000 gram increments and then adding the last 376 grams of water.
- a surfactant is then added at a concentration 0.3 percent by volume by adding 35.27 mL of Triton X-100 to 100 grams of water and then adding the resulting mixture to the 0.1 percent solution of NaOH in the 5 gallon pail.
- the resulting mixture is then gently stirred with a steel rod (mixing blade) to ensure that the Triton X-100 is thoroughly dispersed in the solution.
- 2 ⁇ 4 inch labels are coated and die cut on the pilot coater and Mark Andy press respectively.
- the labels are hand applied to the substrate and rolled with a 4 pound roller.
- Clamps are placed onto each 2 ⁇ 6 inch panels (5 reps) then placed onto a SS rod for support.
- the rod is then placed over the opening of a bath of the caustic solution detailed above at 85° C. for a 6 minute dwell time. Observations are made at the end of the 6 minutes, and samples (if they did not fully remove from the substrate) are taken to an Instron tester and a 180 peel adhesion is performed to obtain the force of the adhesive to remove it from the substrate.
- the force necessary to peel the various labels from their substrates are detailed in FIG. 4 (note—the substrate on the 180 peels is PE 85 on AD-3413CC and White BOPP on AE-3349).
- PE 85/AE-3339 PE 85/AE-3413CC, PE 85/AE-3339 Clear BOPP/AE-3339, GCX NPS*B/AE-3339, Clear BOPP/AE-3413CC, and White BOPP/AE-3349 are placed on PET thermoforms and placed in the caustic solution at 85° C. After 4 minutes most samples are floating in the caustic solution and have detached from the substrate.
- the PE 85 film is from Nordenia (located in Jackson, Miss.) and is an unoriented blown PE film. As noted above, the PE 85 film is not an oriented film orientation in at least one direction and still yields facestock constructs in accordance with the present invention that overcome the adhesive retention force. This is a significant and unexpected result. It is noted after this first test that the samples of PET thermoform have curled and shrink (see FIG. 5 ).
- PET thermoform the substrate
- PET panes most of the film and adhesive combinations from above did not remove after 6 minutes at 85° C. in a caustic bath.
- the PET panels themselves do bend slightly but do not shrink and curl as violently as the above PET thermoforms do.
- the samples that removed are those of AE-3339 that has a rosin based surfactant component with an unique cloud point such that it is a waxy solid at room temp but liquefies at 110° F.
- the samples are then taken to perform a 180° peel adhesion and separate samples of the film are taken to obtain the shrink force and shrink tension of the films.
- the shrink force of the films is clearly much lower than the adhesive peel force.
- the film shrink force is not overcoming the adhesive retention force as is stated in U.S. Pat. No. 6,680,097. While not wishing to be bound to any one theory, it is believed that the PET articles are the driving forces that overcome the adhesive force.
- thermoform is approximately 97 percent of the force required to overcome the adhesive.
- a substrate that is thick enough to not shrink and curl is needed.
- a 1 ⁇ 8 inch PET Panel obtained from Sabic Polymer shapes. Part Number STND198418I
- the samples are then reapplied to the PET Panel and tested in the caustic solution.
- the PE Panel does not shrink and/or curl as much as the thermoform and that the labels do not operationally detach as they did previously.
- the only exception is the AE-3339 adhesive samples. This adhesive is designed to detackify at temperatures around 110° F. This observation holds true and is independent of the film shrink tension acting on the adhesive as PE 85 removes with this adhesive successfully.
- the labels with the adhesive are subjected to the caustic solution for 6 minutes at 85° C. and then the 180° peel adhesion is tested to discover the force of the adhesive after caustic exposure. Then, several films are tested (with and without adhesive) in caustic bath and the shrink tension of the film is tested from start to finish (6 minutes total time).
- the test used to determine the 180° peel adhesion force from a known surface substrate under varied conditions i.e., dwell times, environments, etc.
- the 180° peel test is used for film face laminates; however, film face laminates with a removable adhesive should be tested at 90° (see 90° Peel Adhesion (Sintech) SOP 06.04.183).
- the peel force necessary to remove an adhesive coated sample in a 180° direction after being applied using a defined pressure at a known speed to a known substrate with a specific dwell time Units are in pounds per inch width of sample.
- Crosshead speed is set to 12 inches per minute via the test method.
- the test equipment is as follows: Sintech constant rate of elongation tensile tester model 500/S1 or 1/G1; the testing substrate that the sample is applied to is cleaned according to ARC Test Method for panel cleaning (TM115 & TM 116); Kimwipes; heptane; acetone; isopropyl alcohol; and 1 ⁇ 8 inch die cut samples cut in the machine direction.
