Like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout.
- A paper packaging structure is provided herein. Paper packaging products may require added barrier properties to preserve the condition of the contents of the packaging, as paper is porous and transmits oxygen and moisture easily.
-
FIG. 1 illustrates an examplepaper packaging structure 100. In an embodiment, the paper packaging structure may comprise apaper structure 110, and abarrier layer 130. In some embodiments, asurface treatment 120 may be utilized to promote adhesion between thepaper structure 110 and thebarrier layer 130. - In some embodiments, the
paper structure 110 may define at least onepaper layer 115. In some embodiments, thepaper structure 110 may comprise a plurality of paper layers 115. In some embodiments, thepaper layer 115 may be a modified metalized paper. In some embodiments, thepaper layer 115 may comprise only virgin paper, while in other embodiments, thepaper layer 115 may comprise only recycled paper (post-consumer or post-industrial). In some embodiments, thepaper layer 115 may comprise a combination of recycled paper and virgin paper. In some embodiments, thepaper layer 115 may be a densified paper. In some embodiments, thepaper layer 115 may have a density between 30-100 g/m2, between 40-80 g/m2, or 50-70 g/m2. In some embodiments, the density of the paper may contribute to barrier properties, as thepaper layer 115 may exhibit less porosity at higher densities as the cellulous fibers are closer together. - In some embodiments, the
paper layer 115 may be treated to improve the smoothness of thepaper layer 115 to ensure even coatings and layers, thereby improving the barrier properties of thepaper layer 115. In some embodiments, aprimer layer 117 may be applied to aninner surface 115 b (with respect to a packaging structure that may be formed) of thepaper layer 115. In some embodiments, theprimer layer 117 may smooth theinner surface 115 b of thepaper layer 115. For example, in an embodiment theprimer layer 117 may comprise inert clay particles configured to fill voids between the paper fibers of thepaper layer 115. Thus, in some embodiments, theprimer layer 117 may be used to change the porosity of thepaper layer 115 by densifying the paper and smoothing the surface. In some embodiments, theprimer layer 117 may provide an even surface for metallization. In an embodiment, theprimer 115 may comprise a coating. - In some embodiments, a
metalized layer 111 may be applied directly to thepaper layer 115 or to theprimer layer 117. In some embodiments, the metalizedlayer 111 may be vacuum deposited. In some embodiments, rather than a metallized layer, a barrier coating (e.g., AlOx, or SiOx) may be vacuum deposited onto thepaper layer 115 or theprimer layer 117. In other embodiments the metalizedlayer 111 may be substituted with a coating, film, or any other application known in the art. - In some embodiments, a
topcoat 113 may be applied to the metalizedlayer 111 opposite theprimer layer 117. Thetopcoat 113 may be a protective layer configured to increase flexibility and serve as a protective surface to keep the metalizedlayer 111 from being compromised. Thus, thetopcoat 113 may decrease cracking or voids in the metalizedlayer 111, and general wear and tear from handling. In some embodiments, thetopcoat 113 may prevent other degradation, and in some embodiments may prevent oxidation to the metalizedlayer 111. In an embodiment, thetopcoat 113 may be a coating. - The
paper structure 110 may define afirst surface 110 a and asecond surface 110 b. Thefirst surface 110 a may form the exterior of the structure (e.g., the exterior of the packaging 100) and thesecond surface 110 b may bond with other structures. In some embodiments, thefirst surface 110 a may be printed or may include an ink layer to provide labeling, graphics, logos, product information, or the like. The printed matter or ink layer may be printed using any known printing process. - In some embodiments, a
surface treatment 120 may be applied to thesecond side 110 b of thepaper structure 110. Thesurface treatment 120 may be configured to promote adhesion between the paper layer and a barrier layer and/or increase the surface energy of the paper structure 110 (and in some cases the topcoat 113), to improve wettability and adhesion of inks, coatings and adhesives. In some embodiments, thesurface treatment 120 may be a corona treatment, a flame treatment, a plasma treatment, or similar surface treatment. - In some embodiments, the
barrier layer 130 may be applied to thepaper structure 110, and in some embodiments, to theprimer 117,metal layer 111, or surface treatedtopcoat 113, whichever is the innermost layer of thepaper structure 110. Thebarrier layer 130 may include multiple layers including anoxygen barrier 133 andsealant layer 135. In some embodiments, theoxygen barrier 133 may be a printable coating. Theoxygen barrier 133 may be printed or applied to thepaper structure 110 with a pilot press in some embodiments. In some embodiments, theoxygen barrier 133 may be water-based. In some embodiments, theoxygen barrier 133 may be a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) solution. In some embodiments, theoxygen barrier 133 may be produced by Siegwerk. In some embodiments, thebarrier layer 133 may be filtered out of the recycling stream, while in other embodiments thebarrier layer 133 may dissolve in a standard paper recycling stream, thus allowing the paper fibers withinpaper structure 110 to be recyclable. - The
oxygen barrier 133 may be applied to thepaper structure 110 at a ratio of up to 1 pound of oxygen barrier per ream, up to 0.8 pounds of oxygen barrier per ream, or up to 0.6 pounds ofoxygen barrier 133 per ream. In some embodiments, the oxygen barrier may be applied in a ratio of between 0.4 pounds per ream to 1.0 pounds per ream, or between 0.5 pounds per ream to 0.7 pounds per ream. - In some embodiments, the
barrier layer 130 may provide a barrier for migratory components between the product and thepaper layer 115. In some embodiments, thebarrier layer 130 may prevent any grease, mineral oil or similar from transferring from the product to thepaper layer 115 thereby preventing grease stains or creases within thepaper layer 115. - Crosslinking may also improve barrier properties of the coating and, in turn, the resulting sheet or container. Any other cross-linking methods could be utilized to crosslink the PVOH, which may include, but is not limited to chemical, physical, or mechanical cross-linking. For example, electron beam crosslinking methodologies could be applied to crosslink the PVOH within the coating material, optionally after the coating has been applied and dried.
- In some embodiments, the
barrier layer 130 may include aheat seal coating 135. Theheat seal coating 135 may be applied to or coated onto theoxygen barrier 133 opposite thepaper structure 110 in some embodiments. In some embodiments, theheat seal coating 135 may be a heat seal coating, while in other embodiments theheat seal coating 135 may be a cold seal. Theheat seal coating 135 may be solvent-based, in some embodiments, while theheat seal coating 135 may be water-based in others. In some embodiments, theheat seal coating 135 has the same chemistry as theoxygen barrier 133, while in other embodiments thebarrier layer 130 defines alternating chemistries. For example, in an embodiment theoxygen barrier 133 may be water-based and theheat seal coating 135 may be solvent-based. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that alternating the chemistries between water-based and solvent-based layers in thebarrier layer 130, thebarrier layer 130 may maintain distinct layers that do not dissolve into each other during printing or coating. In other embodiments, both theoxygen barrier 133 and theheat seal coating 135 may be water based. - In some embodiments, the
oxygen barrier 133 is dried completely before application of theheat seal coating 135. In some embodiments, theheat seal coating 135 may be sprayed, coated, extruded, or printed onto theoxygen barrier 133. In some embodiments, theheat seal coating 135 may comprise PET based chemistry, for example ACTEseal®, produced by Actega, or similar. - In some embodiments, the
heat seal coating 135 may applied be to theoxygen barrier 133 at a ratio between 1-4 pounds of heat seal coating per ream, between 2-3 pounds of heat seal coating per ream, or even between 2.25-2.75 pounds of heat seal coating per ream. - In some embodiments, the
heat seal coating 135 may be a cold seal structure. In such embodiments, the cold seal may be coated with a release overlacquer. - In some embodiments, the
barrier layer 130 may define a barrier layer thickness of less than 10 microns, in some embodiments less than 8 microns and in some embodiments less than 6 microns. Thebarrier layer 130 thickness may be correlated to the thickness of thepaper structure 110. For example, athicker barrier layer 130, may be utilized with athicker paper structure 110. Further, athinner barrier layer 130, may allow athinner paper structure 110. - In some embodiments, the
packaging structure 100 may be formed into a container for dry products including seasoning, mixes, cookies, crackers, nuts and the like. In some embodiments, thebarrier layer 130 may comprise the product-facing side of a food package, and thepaper structure 110, specifically thepaper layer 115 in some embodiments, may be the outer or exterior layer. In some embodiments, thebarrier layer 130 may further act as a barrier between the ink contained in or on thepaper layer 115 and the product contained within the package. In some embodiments, thepackaging structure 100 may be formed into a flow wrap package, a bar wrap, a slug wrap, a pouch, and pillow package, and in some embodiments, may be configured into a stand-up package. - In the method of manufacture, referring to
FIG. 2 , apaper structure 210 may be advanced from a firststructure supply roll 211. In an embodiment, a paper layer may be coated with or otherwise adhered to a primer, a metal, and/or a topcoat (not shown). One or both surfaces of thepaper structure 210 may be treated with a surface treatment, atstation 220. In some embodiments, the surface treatment may be corona discharge or a flame treatment to render the surface more receptive to inks and/or more readily bondable to the barrier layer that is subsequently applied to the surface. Thepaper structure 210 may be optionally pre-printed as a part of the presently described manufacturing process. In other embodiments, thepaper layer 210 may be advanced to aprinting station 235 during manufacture. The inks and printing may be applied to thefirst side 110 a (i.e., exterior surface) of thepaper structure 110 in an embodiment. - In an embodiment, an
oxygen barrier 133 is applied to thesecond side 110 b (i.e., interior surface)paper structure 210 adjacent the surface treatment at abarrier coating station 233. In an embodiment, the oxygen barrier is at least partially dried and advances to a heatseal coating station 235, where theheat seal coating 135 may be applied. - In an embodiment, the paper packaging structure may be formed into packages or may be cut and stacked and/or rolled to be transported to a separate facility for packaging, at
station 255. - Example 1. In this experiment, the inventors compared the oxygen and moisture transmission rates of a paper structure with a surface treatment as outlined herein versus a paper structure without the surface treatment. In the experiment the
paper structure 110 was a metalized densified paper including a primer layer and a topcoat layer. In each trial, thebarrier layer 130, includingoxygen barrier 133 andheat coating layer 135, was applied to thepaper structure 110 at the same ratio. The oxygen transmission rate (OTR) for each sample was measured as cc/100 in2/day at approximately 23° C., and 0% relative humidity in 100% O2. The water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) for each sample was measured at g/100 in2/day at about 37.8° C., and 90% relative humidity. The results of the testing without a barrier coating are shown in Table 1, and the results of the testing with the barrier coating are shown in Table 2. -
TABLE 1 OTR (cc/100 in2/day @ ~23° WVTR (g/100 in2/day) C./0% RH) with 100% O2 at 37.8° C./90% RH Replicate # Barrier Paper without Oxygen Barrier Coating 1 >12.9 0.298 2 >12.9 0.202 Mean >12.9 0.250 Std. Dev. N/A 0.048 -
TABLE 2 OTR (cc/100 in2/day @ ~23° WVTR (g/100 in2/day) C./0% RH) with 100% O2 at 37.8° C./90% RH Replicate # Barrier Paper with Oxygen Barrier Coating 1 .69 0.17 2 .29 0.17 3 .06 0.16 Mean .35 0.17 Std. Dev. .28 0.005 - As can be seen, the surface treatment leads to a significantly lower WVTR and lower OTR. The goal for WVTR is to be below 0.5 g/100 in2/day. Thus, in an embodiment, the
structure 100 of the present invention has an WVTR of less than or equal to 0.5 g/in2/day. The goal for oxygen transmission is to be below Thus, in an embodiment, thestructure 100 of the present invention has an oxygen transmission of less than or equal to 0.1 cc/100 in2/day. - As illustrated in Table 1 and Table 2, the OTR decreased by over 95% when compared to the paper layer without a barrier coating, while the WVTR decreased by over 30%.
- In general paper will absorb coatings positioned on the paper layer. However, in utilizing a densified paper layer, the additional coatings were not absorbed by the paper layer. Rather the paper layer stayed intact and the
barrier coating 130 provide exemplary barrier coatings as illustrated below. - The oxygen transmission rate was tested with an Ox-Tran 702 with 100% O2 and at 23 C and 0% RH. The oxygen transmission rates were compensated to a barometric pressure of 760 mmHg. For the tests the metallized surface was positioned towards the carrier gas for testing, in accordance with ASTM 3985.
- The water vapor transmission rate was tested on the Permatran 3/31 at 90% A RH and 37.8 C. The samples were tested with the metallized
layer 111 towards the moisture, in accordance with ASTM F1249.
