得られた樹脂組成物ペレットを用いて、以下に示す条件で、本体部及び口部を有する積層剥離容器をブロー成形により作製し、上述した方法に従ってボトル剥離試験を行い、評価した。評価結果を表3に示す。
(1)容器形状
本体部:直径47mm、高さ110mm
口部:直径30mm、高さ16mm
外層:ポリプロピレン(住友化学製、型式:FSX16E9)
内層:外層側から順に樹脂組成物層/接着層/内面層の三層構成
接着層:接着成分(三菱化学製、型式:モディックL522):LLDPE(日本ポリエチレン製、型式:ハーモレックスF325N)=1:1
内面層:LLDPE(日本ポリエチレン製、型式:ハーモレックスF325N)
上記層構成になるよう各溶融した樹脂を共押出しすることにより、溶融状態の積層パリソンを作製し、この溶融状態の積層パリソンをブロー成形金型にセットし、ブロー成形法によって所望の容器形状に成形した。共押出の条件は、外層と内層の厚さがどちらも70~130μmの範囲内であり且つ外層/内層の厚さの比が0.8~1.3となるように調節した。ブロー成形の条件は、ブロー圧:0.4MPa、金型温度:25℃、ブロー時間:15秒とした。
