Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a laminate, a packaging material, a package, and a packaged article.
  • Packaging materials for long-term storage of foods, beverages, medicines, etc. are required to have gas barrier properties that prevent oxygen, water vapor, and other gases that can deteriorate the contents from entering the package. Meanwhile, in recent years, there has also been a demand for packaging materials to be highly recyclable, and the movement to switch from conventional packaging materials to highly recyclable all-polyolefin mono-material packages is progressing not only in Japan but also around the world.
  • gas barrier films have been developed for use in packaging materials. For example, there are vapor-deposited films in which an inorganic coating layer of silicon oxide, aluminum oxide, etc. is formed as a gas barrier layer on a polymer film by vacuum deposition or sputtering. Such gas barrier films have the problem that when a polyolefin layer is used as the polymer layer, the gas barrier properties are lower than those of polyester layers such as polyethylene terephthalate. There is also the problem that the adhesion between the polymer film and the inorganic coating layer is insufficient.
  • Packaging materials that are subjected to high temperature and pressure or high temperature and humidity environments such as retort processing or boiling processing require particularly high performance.
  • gas barrier films used in such packaging materials are required to have excellent abuse resistance that allows them to maintain a high level of gas barrier properties even when subjected to physical stress such as bending after harsh processing such as retort processing.
  • gas barrier films are also required to have excellent adhesion that allows them to maintain high interlayer adhesion even after harsh processing such as retort processing.
  • the present invention aims to provide a laminate with excellent resistance to abuse and adhesion, as well as a packaging material, a package, and a packaged article that contain the laminate.
  • a laminate comprising a first substrate layer, an anchor coat layer, and an inorganic barrier layer in this order, the first substrate layer comprising a polyolefin, the anchor coat layer having a cross-sectional composite elastic modulus in the range of 3.5 to 6.5 GPa, and a thickness in the range of 0.4 to 3.0 ⁇ m.
  • the first substrate layer has a layer structure including a skin layer in contact with the anchor coat layer and a core layer
  • the anchor coat layer has a cross-sectional hardness in the range of 200 MPa or more and 350 MPa or less
  • the skin layer has a cross-sectional hardness of 150 MPa or less.
  • a laminate according to the above aspect in which the skin layer has a cross-sectional hardness of 20 MPa or more.
  • a laminate according to any of the above aspects, in which the thickness of the skin layer is within the range of 0.2 to 1.8 ⁇ m.
  • the anchor coat layer is a cured film of an anchor coat agent containing a polyurethane resin and a curing agent
  • the solid mass ratio of the polyurethane resin to the curing agent in the anchor coat agent [curing agent/polyurethane resin] is within the range of 30/100 to 50/100.
  • the inorganic barrier layer contains silicon oxide or aluminum oxide.
  • a packaging material comprising a laminate according to any of the above aspects.
  • a packaging material comprising a sealant layer formed on the surface of the laminate facing the first substrate layer via a first adhesive layer, and a second substrate layer formed on the surface of the laminate facing the inorganic barrier layer via a second adhesive layer.
  • a packaging material according to any of the above aspects for use in a retort pouch.
  • a package including a packaging material according to any of the above aspects.
  • a packaged article including the package according to the above aspect and contents contained therein.
  • the present invention provides a laminate with excellent resistance to abuse and adhesion, as well as a packaging material, a package, and a packaged article that contain the laminate.
  • FIG. 1 is a partial cross-sectional view illustrating an example of a laminate according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 11 is a partial cross-sectional view illustrating a laminate according to a modified example of the first embodiment.
  • FIG. 5 is a partial cross-sectional view illustrating an example of a packaging material according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 11 is a partial cross-sectional view illustrating a packaging material according to a modified example of the second embodiment.
  • 1A-1C are cross-sectional views each showing a schematic diagram of a step in the measurement of composite modulus and hardness. Graph showing a load-displacement curve.
  • Fig. 1 is a partial cross-sectional view showing an example of a laminate according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
  • the laminate 10 shown in Fig. 1 includes, in this order, a first base layer 1, an anchor coat layer 2, and an inorganic barrier layer 3. Each layer included in the laminate 10 will be described below.
  • the first base layer 1 is a film that serves as one of the supports, and may be a single layer or a laminate structure including two or more layers.
  • the first substrate layer 1 contains polyolefin.
  • the first substrate layer 1 may be made of a polyolefin film.
  • polyolefin films include polyethylene film (PE), polypropylene film (PP), and polybutene film (PB).
  • the polyolefin film may also be an acid-modified polyolefin film obtained by graft-modifying a polyolefin with an unsaturated carboxylic acid, an acid anhydride of an unsaturated carboxylic acid, an ester of an unsaturated carboxylic acid, or the like.
  • the polyolefin film constituting the first substrate layer 1 may be a stretched film or a non-stretched film. From the standpoint of impact resistance, heat resistance, water resistance, dimensional stability, etc., the polyolefin film may be a stretched film. This makes it possible to make the laminate 10 more suitable for applications in which it is subjected to high temperature and high pressure or high temperature and high humidity environments, such as retort processing or boiling processing. There are no particular limitations on the stretching method.
  • the stretching method may be any method, such as stretching by inflation, uniaxial stretching, or biaxial stretching, as long as it is possible to supply a dimensionally stable film.
  • the thickness of the first substrate layer 1 is not particularly limited, and can be set appropriately depending on the application, for example, within the range of 6 to 200 ⁇ m. In one example, the thickness of the first substrate layer 1 may be within the range of 9 to 50 ⁇ m, or within the range of 12 to 38 ⁇ m, from the viewpoint of obtaining excellent impact resistance and excellent gas barrier properties.
  • the first base layer 1 may be subjected to various pretreatments such as corona treatment, plasma treatment, and frame treatment on the main surface on which the anchor coat layer 2 is formed, as long as the barrier performance is not impaired.
  • a coating layer such as an easy-adhesion layer may also be provided.
  • the laminate 10 includes an anchor coat layer 2 between the first base layer 1 and the inorganic barrier layer 3.
  • the anchor coat layer 2 has a cross-sectional composite elastic modulus in the range of 3.5 to 6.5 GPa at room temperature (25°C) and a thickness in the range of 0.4 to 3.0 ⁇ m.
  • the anchor coat layer 2 imparts excellent abuse resistance and adhesion to the laminate 10.
  • abuse resistance refers to a property that can suppress a decrease in at least one of the oxygen barrier property and the water vapor barrier property even when a Gelbo flex test (a test in which a gas barrier film is repeatedly compressed while being twisted) is performed.
  • the cross-sectional composite elastic modulus of 6.5 GPa or less contributes to improving the abuse resistance of the laminate 10.
  • this composite elastic modulus By setting this composite elastic modulus to 6.5 GPa or less, the anchor coat layer 2 becomes flexible, and the inorganic barrier layer 3 is less likely to crack when physical stress such as bending is applied to the laminate 10.
  • the thickness of the anchor coat layer 2 is in the range of 0.4 to 3.0 ⁇ m. If the thickness of the anchor coat layer 2 is excessively large, the abuse resistance decreases, and even if the cross-sectional composite elastic modulus is 6.5 GPa or less, the desired abuse resistance cannot be obtained.
  • the thickness of the anchor coat layer 2 is excessively small, the influence of contraction of the first base layer 1 is transmitted to the inorganic barrier layer 3 during processing such as retorting, and the gas barrier property decreases. Therefore, if the thickness of the anchor coat layer 2 is less than 0.4 ⁇ m, the gas barrier properties will decrease after treatment in a high-temperature, high-pressure or high-temperature, high-humidity environment, such as retort treatment, and the desired gas barrier properties and abuse resistance will not be obtained even if the composite elastic modulus of the cross section of the anchor coat layer 2 is 6.5 GPa or less.
  • a cross-sectional composite modulus of 3.5 GPa or more contributes to improving the adhesion of the laminate 10.
  • the adhesion of the laminate 10 is improved, and delamination between the anchor coat layer 2 and the inorganic barrier layer 3 is less likely to occur even after processing in a high temperature and high pressure or high temperature and high humidity environment such as retort processing.
  • the thickness of the anchor coat layer is 3.0 ⁇ m or less. If the thickness of the anchor coat layer 2 is made excessively large, the adhesion decreases, and even if the composite modulus is 3.5 GPa or more, the desired adhesion cannot be obtained.
  • the laminate 10 is endowed with excellent abuse resistance and adhesion. Since the laminate 10 having the anchor coat layer 2 has excellent abuse resistance and adhesion, it can maintain good gas barrier properties and high interlayer adhesion even when subjected to physical stress such as bending after treatment in a harsh environment such as retort treatment.
  • This composite elastic modulus is measured using a nanoindentation method, and will be explained later with reference to the drawings.
  • the anchor coat layer 2 preferably has a cross-sectional composite elastic modulus in the range of 4.0 to 6.0 GPa at room temperature (25°C).
  • the anchor coat layer 2 also preferably has a thickness in the range of 0.5 to 3.0 ⁇ m, and more preferably in the range of 0.7 to 2.0 ⁇ m.
  • the anchor coat layer 2 also functions as a planarizing layer, and allows the inorganic barrier layer 3 to be formed uniformly without defects, thereby further improving the gas barrier properties of the laminate 10.
