実施例1-1~1-5および比較例1-1に係る2軸配向ポリエステルの層単体、または、2軸配向ポリエステルの層を表面に含む積層体からなるフィルムを作成してヒートシール加工を行い、その後、シール強度の測定を行った。
本実施例に係るフィルムは、2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレート単体からなる厚さ50μmのフィルムである。キーエンス社製の炭酸ガスレーザー装置ML-Z9510を用いて、このフィルムに出力21Wでレーザー光の照射を行った。照射する領域は100mm×100mmの領域とし、直径0.14mmの照射スポットを、走査速度4000mm/sec、走査間隔0.1mmで複数の平行な直線状に走査した。このような照射を行った領域どうしを2秒間、温度140℃、圧力0.2MPaの熱及び圧力を加えてヒートシールを行い、シール強度を測定した結果、22N/15mmのシール強度が確認され、ヒートシール性が付与されていることを確認できた。また、配向特性の有無を確認するため照射領域にクロロホルムを滴下したところ、滴下箇所が白化(不透明化)し、2軸配向性が消失していることが確認できた。
本実施例に係るフィルムは、ポリエチレンテレフタレート(厚さ12μm)/アルミニウム(厚さ9μm)/ポリエチレン(厚さ20μm)/2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレート(厚さ12μm)の層構成の積層体からなるフィルムである。本フィルムに対しても、実施例1-1と同じ装置及び条件で、2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレート側からレーザー光照射を行った。走査速度および走査間隔については、実施例1-1とは異なる条件でもレーザー光照射を行った。また、レーザー光を照射した領域どうしを、実施例1-1と同じ条件でヒートシールした。シール強度を測定した結果を表1に示す。いずれもヒートシール性が確認できたが、例えば走査速度4000mm/sec、走査間隔0.2mm以下の場合、または、走査間隔0.05mm、走査速度4000mm/sec以上の場合、シール強度が特に大きくヒートシール性が好適に付与されていることを確認できた。走査速度や走査間隔が大きすぎると、各部分におけるレーザー光の照射エネルギーが少なく、表面の変質が不十分となり、走査速度が小さすぎると、各部分におけるレーザー光の照射エネルギーが多く、2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレートが蒸発、燃焼(酸化)等により消滅するものと考えられる。また、配向特性の有無を確認するため照射領域にクロロホルムを滴下したところ、滴下箇所が白化(不透明化)し、2軸配向性が消失していることが確認できた。
本実施例に係るフィルムは、表面から、配向ポリプロピレン(厚さ20μm)/低密度ポリエチレン(厚さ30μm)/2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレート(厚さ12μm)の層構成の積層体からなるフィルムである。本フィルムに対しても、実施例1-1と同じ装置及び条件で、裏面側にレーザー光照射を行った。また、レーザー光照射を行った裏面の領域どうしを、実施例1-1と同じ条件でヒートシールした。ヒートシール領域のシール強度を測定した結果、10N/15mm以上のシール強度を有することが確認できた。
本実施例に係るフィルムは、第1の2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレート(厚さ12μm)/中密度ポリエチレン(厚さ50μm)/第2の2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレート(厚さ12μm)の層構成の積層体からなるフィルムである。本フィルムに対しても、実施例1-1と同じ装置及び条件で、第1の2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレート側からレーザー光照射を行った。このとき、レーザー光は、中密度ポリエチレンを透過して、第2の2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレートにも到達した。レーザー光の照射面である第1の2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレートの領域どうしを、実施例1-1と同じ条件でヒートシールした。また、第2の2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレートの領域どうしを、実施例1-1と同じ条件でヒートシールした。ヒートシール領域のシール強度を測定した結果、レーザー光照射面及びレーザー光の非照射面のどちらも、10N/15mm以上のシール強度を有することが確認できた。
本実施例に係るフィルムは、実施例1-3に係るフィルムと同様の層構成を有する。本フィルムに対して、実施例1-1と同じ装置及び条件で、実施例1-3とは異なり配向ポリプロピレン層の側からレーザー光照射を行った。このとき、レーザー光は、配向ポリプロピレンおよび低密度ポリエチレンの各層を透過して、裏面の2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレートに到達した。レーザー光照射を行った裏面の領域どうしを、実施例1と同じ条件でヒートシールした。ヒートシール領域のシール強度を測定した結果、10N/15mm以上のシール強度を有することが確認できた。
本比較例に係るフィルムは、2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレート単体からなる厚さ12μmのフィルムである。本フィルムに対しても、実施例1-1と同じ装置及び条件でレーザー光照射を行った。レーザー光の照射を行った結果、照射領域のフィルムが、融解、収縮しフィルム状態を維持することができなかった。本比較例のフィルムの厚さは、実施例1-1の厚さより小さく、実施例1-2~1-5の2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレートの層の厚さと同じである。フィルムが2軸配向ポリエチレンテレフタレートの層が薄くて、フィルム状態を維持しにくい場合であっても、積層体にすれば好適にヒートシール性を付与できる。
実施例2-1~2-5および比較例2-1~2-5のフィルムを作成してヒートシール加工を行い、その後、シール強度の測定を行った。表2に、各フィルムの作成に用いた、微細構造を形成する2軸配向ポリエステルフィルム1~7の物性値を示す。2軸配向ポリエステルフィルム1~5は、上述の、融点、加熱収縮率、ヤング率、破断強度の物性値条件を満たし、2軸配向ポリエステルフィルム6、7は、上述の物性値条件をいずれも満たさない。2軸配向ポリエステルフィルム1~7は、ポリエステルとして、いずれもポリエチレンテレフタレートを用いた。
