【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は主に複合フイルムに係わり、特に食品のスキンパック包装において、スキン用フイルムである上材のみを加熱する場合においてもシールが可能であるとともに、ボイル殺菌処理することが可能で各種食品を包装しても耐ボイル性に優れた複合フイルムに関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
通常、スキンパック包装は、厚いシートまたは軟質フイルムに台紙を貼り合わせた下材に内容物を置き、スキンフイルムである軟質フイルムの上材を加熱しながら真空にし、外気との差圧によって内容物の形状に密着させることにより真空包装するものである。
【0003】
この方法では上材のみを加熱し下材は加熱せずにシールを行わなければならないため、フイルムのシール材(イージーピール材)は融点の低いエチレンー酢酸ビニル樹脂やアイオノマー樹脂を主成分とする原料が使用されていた。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、低温ヒートシール性の良いエチレンー酢酸ビニル樹脂やアイオノマー樹脂を主成分としたイージピール材は、包装品をボイル殺菌処理するとシール部が侵食し破袋し易くなることやイージーピール材が溶融状態に近い状態で保持されるためイージーピール強度(易開封性)が変わってしまうという問題があった。
【0005】
またエチレンー酢酸ビニル樹脂は耐油性が劣るため油性食品を包装してボイル殺菌を行うと油成分に侵されて破袋する問題があり、さらにアイオノマー樹脂は酢等の酢酸成分に影響を受け易く酢を含む食品を包装し上記と同様にボイル殺菌する場合に白化現象を生じ透明性が悪くなるとるという問題があった。
【0006】
またイージーピール性を層間の剥離で付与する層間剥離タイプのイージーピール材は、ボイル殺菌処理の温度による影響を受け易いため、ボイル中イージーピール強度が極端に低下し、ボイル破袋の原因となったり、ボイル前後のイージーピール強度が大きく変化してしまうため、イージーピール強度の管理がしにくくなるという問題があった。
【0007】
本発明は耐ボイル性が良好で、イージーピール強度の管理がし易く、シール性、易開封性良好なイージーピール性を有する複合フイルムを提供することを目的とする。
【0008】
【課題を解決するための手段】
前記の目的は以下の手段によって達成される。
【0009】
すなわち、本発明は、少なくとも最外層と中間層及びシール層とからなり、(A)密度が0.895〜0.912g/cm3のエチレンーαオレフイン共重合体樹脂と、(B)密度が0.895〜0.918g/cm3のポリブテン1を、質量比率,(A):(B)=40:60〜80:20の範囲で配合したものをシール層とすることを特徴とする複合フイルムを提案するものであり、前記シール層の厚さが2〜15μmの範囲であること、前記中間層としてエチレンー酢酸ビニル共重合体けん化物樹脂を酸素バリアー層として用いること、 前記最外層にポリプロピレン樹脂層を配することを含む。
【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明を更に詳細に説明する。
本発明において、シール層に用いる樹脂は、(A)密度が0.895〜0.912g/cm3のエチレンーαオレフイン共重合体樹脂(以下、LLという。)と(B)密度が0.895〜0.912g/cm3のポリブテン1(以下、PB1という。)を、質量比率,(A):(B)=40:60〜80:20の範囲で配合したものとするが、ここでLLの密度が0.895g/cm3未満では軟化温度が低くなり過ぎボイル殺菌時破袋が発生し易く耐ボイル性に劣ると共にボイル殺菌によるイージーピール強度の振れが発生するという問題がある。
【0011】
逆に密度が0.912g/cm3を越えるとシール性が悪くなりスキンパック包装のように片側だけ加熱してシールする方式では、加熱温度を極端に高くする必要があり上材フイルムがもたずシールエッジ切れ等穴開きの原因となる。
【0012】
PB1もLLの場合と同様に密度が0.895g/cm3未満では軟化温度が低くなり過ぎボイル破袋が発生する危険性が生じると共にボイルによるイージーピール強度の振れの問題がある。
【0013】
逆に密度が0.918g/cm3を越えるとシール性が悪くなりスキンパック包装のように片側だけ加熱してシールする方式では、加熱温度を極端に高くする必要があり上材フイルムがもたずシールエッジ切れ等穴開きの原因となる。
【0014】
上記(A)LLと(B)PB1とのブレンド比は(A):(B)=40:60〜80:20とLLの比率が40質量%以上80質量%以下の範囲である必要がある。
【0015】
LLの比率が40質量%未満ではイージーピール強度が弱く、ボイル殺菌時イージーピール部から破袋する危険性があり、耐ボイル性の点で問題となる。
【0016】
逆にLLの比率が80質量%を越えるとイージーピール強度が強くなりすぎ、開封性の点で問題となる。
またシール層にはイージーピール性を損ねない範囲で少量のスリップ剤、アンチブロッキング剤、酸化防止剤等を添加しても良い。
【0017】
イージーピール強度としては、シール幅、面積、フイルムの腰等により異なるがボイル殺菌用という点を考慮し概ね1.00〜10N/15mm幅程度に設定することが好ましい。
【0018】
本発明フイルムのシール層でLLとPB1を特定比率で配合した理由としては、LLの融点は120℃程度とボイル温度(圧力がかからない状態では最高でも100℃)に比べて高いが、密度を低くすると融点を変えずに軟化温度(ビカット軟化点)を低くすることができシール性を改良できるからである。
【0019】
PB1についても従来技術ではポリエチレン系樹脂にポリプロピレン樹脂(以下、PPという。)を配合することが行われているがPPに比べ融点の低いPB1を使用することにより、より低温でシールが可能になる。
【0020】
またLLは従来スキンパック用のシール材として良く使われているエチレンー酢酸ビニル樹脂(以下、EVAという。)やアイオノマー樹脂に比べ、耐油性、耐薬品性が良好で白化、破袋を生ずることがないため、様々な内容物に対応できる。 LLのαオレフインについてはブテン1、ヘキセン1、4メチルペンテン1、オクテン1等が使用できるが特に限定はされない。
【0021】
またシングルサイト触媒(メタロセン触媒)を用いたタイプを使用することも可能である。
【0022】
シール層の厚さは2〜15μmが適当であり、2μm未満では凝集破壊タイプのイージーピール性を付与することを目的とするシール層がシール時の温度と圧力で流動してしまう部分が発生し、目的とするイージーピール性の付与が行えなくなる可能性が出てくる。
【0023】
逆に15μmを越えると開封時イージーピール層のケバ立ち(糸引き)が発生し、剥離外観を損ねる問題が発生する可能性が出てくる。
【0024】
シール層に用いるLLは、シール時の融着性を良くするためメルトインデックスの高い樹脂を用いた方が効果的である。
【0025】
上記内容のシール層はスキンパック包装用フイルムの上材、下材どちらに付与しても良く、また両側に同様のシール層を用いてもよい。
【0026】
片側だけに付与する場合、相手シール材は本発明に使用するLLと同様の密度の0.895〜0.912g/cm3のものを用いた方がより本発明の効果を発揮できるため好ましい。
本発明の複合フイルムを食品のスキンパック包装に用いる場合、上材、下材どちらに使用する場合でも酸素バリアー性を付与することが必要であるが用いるバリアー材としては従来多く使われていた塩化ビニリデン樹脂はスキンパック適性に優れ、上材に用いた場合はシワの発生の少ない優れた外観が得られるが、環境問題を考慮し塩素を含まないエチレンー酢酸ビニル共重合体けん化物樹脂(以下、EVOHという。)を用いることが好ましい。
【0027】
特にスキンパック適性(シワ入りが発生しない)が要求されない下材にはEVOHを用いることが望ましい。
【0028】
但し、ボイル殺菌時EVOH層の白化を防止するためPP等の防湿性のある樹脂をEVOHの外側へ配することが好ましい。
【0029】
ボイル殺菌可能なスキンパック包装体に使用されるフイルムとしては、上材はスキンパックを考慮し軟質のフイルムとする必要があるが、下材はボイル殺菌による変形を防止する必要があるためPP、フイラー入りPP等PPを基材とする無延伸の厚めのシートを用いることが好ましい。
またPPを基材とする無延伸のシートを用いた場合は下材を若干深絞り成形して用いてもよい。
【0030】
特に蓋材にEVOH構成品を使用する場合はフラットな下材を用いるよりも若干深絞り成形した下材を用いた方がシワの発生が抑えられ、外観の良好な包装品となる。
【0031】
本発明の複合フイルムでは上記シール層の隣接層としてはLL等の耐油性の良好なものを用いるのが好ましい。
【0032】
またさらには酸素バリアー層としてのEVOH層、その保護層としてのPP層等を接着樹脂等を介在させて共押出することにより使用されることが、スキンパック適性、コスト面、衛生面等の点から好ましく、インフレーション法、Tダイ法のどちらでも製造可能である。
【0033】
上記共押出フイルムにドライラミネート法、押出ラミネート法等他のフイルムを貼合わせて使用してもよい。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention mainly relates to a composite film, and in particular in food skin pack packaging, it can be sealed even when only the upper material, which is a film for skin, is heated, and can be sterilized with a boil so that various foods can be used. The present invention relates to a composite film having excellent boil resistance even after packaging.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Normally, skin pack packaging places the contents on a thick sheet or a base material with a backing on a soft film, evacuates the upper material of the soft film, which is a skin film, and heats the contents by the pressure difference from the outside air. It is vacuum-packed by making it closely adhere to the shape.
[0003]
In this method, only the upper material must be heated and the lower material must be sealed without heating. Therefore, the film seal material (easy peel material) is a raw material mainly composed of ethylene-vinyl acetate resin or ionomer resin having a low melting point. Was used.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, easy-peel materials based on ethylene-vinyl acetate resin and ionomer resin, which have good low-temperature heat-sealing properties, can easily erode the seal part when boil sterilized packaging, and the easy-peel material can be melted. There was a problem that the easy peel strength (easy-opening property) would change because it was held in a close state.
[0005]
In addition, ethylene-vinyl acetate resin is inferior in oil resistance, so that boil sterilization after packaging oily foods has the problem of being damaged by the oil component and breaking the bag. Furthermore, ionomer resin is susceptible to acetic acid components such as vinegar. In the case of packaging foods containing and sterilizing by boiling in the same manner as described above, there is a problem that whitening occurs and transparency becomes worse.
[0006]
In addition, delamination type easy peel material that imparts easy peel properties by delamination is easily affected by the temperature of the boil sterilization treatment, so that the easy peel strength in the boil is extremely reduced, causing boil breakage. Moreover, since the easy peel strength before and after boiling changes greatly, there is a problem that it is difficult to manage the easy peel strength.
[0007]
An object of the present invention is to provide a composite film having good boil resistance, easy management of easy peel strength, and easy peel properties with good sealing properties and easy opening properties.
[0008]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The above object is achieved by the following means.
[0009]
That is, the present invention comprises at least an outermost layer, an intermediate layer, and a seal layer, (A) an ethylene-α-olefin copolymer resin having a density of 0.895 to 0.912 g / cm 3 , and (B) a density of 0. Composite film characterized in that a sealing layer is prepared by blending polybutene 1 at a mass ratio of (895) to 0.918 g / cm 3 in a range of (A) :( B) = 40: 60 to 80:20. The seal layer has a thickness in the range of 2 to 15 μm, the intermediate layer uses an ethylene-vinyl acetate saponified resin as an oxygen barrier layer, and the outermost layer has a polypropylene resin. Including arranging the layers.
[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.
In the present invention, the resin used for the seal layer is (A) an ethylene-α-olefin copolymer resin (hereinafter referred to as LL) having a density of 0.895 to 0.912 g / cm 3 and (B) a density of 0.895. ˜0.912 g / cm 3 of polybutene 1 (hereinafter referred to as PB1) is blended in a mass ratio of (A) :( B) = 40: 60 to 80:20, where LL If the density is less than 0.895 g / cm 3 , the softening temperature becomes too low, and there is a problem that breakage during boil sterilization is likely to occur and the boil sterilization is inferior, and easy peel strength fluctuations due to boil sterilization occur.
[0011]
On the other hand, when the density exceeds 0.912 g / cm 3 , the sealing performance is deteriorated, and in the method of heating and sealing only one side as in skin pack packaging, it is necessary to extremely increase the heating temperature, and there is an upper material film. This may cause holes such as broken seal edges.
[0012]
Similarly to the case of LL, when the density is less than 0.895 g / cm 3, PB1 has a problem that the softening temperature becomes too low and a boil breakage occurs, and there is a problem of easy peel strength fluctuation due to the boil.
[0013]
On the other hand, when the density exceeds 0.918 g / cm 3 , the sealing performance is deteriorated, and in the method in which only one side is heated and sealed as in the case of skin pack packaging, it is necessary to extremely increase the heating temperature, and there is an upper material film. This may cause holes such as broken seal edges.
[0014]
The blend ratio of the above (A) LL and (B) PB1 needs to be within the range of (A) :( B) = 40: 60-80: 20 and the ratio of LL between 40% by mass and 80% by mass. .
[0015]
If the ratio of LL is less than 40% by mass, the easy peel strength is weak and there is a risk of breaking the bag from the easy peel part during boil sterilization, which is problematic in terms of boil resistance.
[0016]
On the contrary, if the ratio of LL exceeds 80% by mass, the easy peel strength becomes too strong, which causes a problem in terms of openability.
Further, a small amount of slip agent, anti-blocking agent, antioxidant, etc. may be added to the seal layer as long as the easy peel property is not impaired.
[0017]
The easy peel strength is preferably set to about 1.00 to 10 N / 15 mm width in consideration of the point for boil sterilization, although it varies depending on the seal width, area, film waist and the like.
[0018]
The reason why LL and PB1 were blended at a specific ratio in the sealing layer of the film of the present invention is that the melting point of LL is about 120 ° C., which is higher than the boiling temperature (at most 100 ° C. when no pressure is applied), but the density is low. This is because the softening temperature (Vicat softening point) can be lowered without changing the melting point, and the sealing performance can be improved.
[0019]
With respect to PB1, in the prior art, a polypropylene resin (hereinafter referred to as PP) is blended with a polyethylene resin, but by using PB1 having a lower melting point than PP, sealing can be performed at a lower temperature. .
[0020]
In addition, LL has better oil resistance and chemical resistance than white ethylene-vinyl acetate resin (hereinafter referred to as EVA) and ionomer resin, which are often used as a seal material for skin packs, and may cause whitening and bag breaking. Because there is no, it can respond to various contents. As for α-olefin of LL, butene 1, hexene 1, 4 methylpentene 1, octene 1 and the like can be used, but are not particularly limited.
[0021]
It is also possible to use a type using a single site catalyst (metallocene catalyst).
[0022]
The thickness of the seal layer is suitably 2 to 15 μm. If the thickness is less than 2 μm, a portion where the seal layer for the purpose of imparting cohesive failure type easy peel properties flows due to the temperature and pressure at the time of sealing occurs. Therefore, there is a possibility that the desired easy peel property cannot be imparted.
[0023]
On the other hand, if the thickness exceeds 15 μm, the easy peel layer may be fluffed (string drawing) at the time of opening, which may cause a problem of deteriorating the peeled appearance.
[0024]
For the LL used for the sealing layer, it is more effective to use a resin having a high melt index in order to improve the fusion property at the time of sealing.
[0025]
The above-mentioned sealing layer may be applied to either the upper or lower material of the skin pack packaging film, and the same sealing layer may be used on both sides.
[0026]
In the case of applying to only one side, it is preferable to use a counterpart sealing material having a density similar to that of LL used in the present invention of 0.895 to 0.912 g / cm 3 because the effect of the present invention can be exhibited more.
When the composite film of the present invention is used for food skin pack packaging, it is necessary to provide oxygen barrier properties regardless of whether the composite film is used as an upper material or a lower material. Vinylidene resin is excellent in skin pack suitability, and when used as an upper material, it gives an excellent appearance with little wrinkling. However, in consideration of environmental problems, it does not contain chlorine, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer saponified resin (hereinafter referred to as “resin”). EVOH) is preferable.
[0027]
In particular, it is desirable to use EVOH for a lower material that does not require skin pack suitability (no wrinkles are generated).
[0028]
However, in order to prevent whitening of the EVOH layer during boil sterilization, it is preferable to dispose a moisture-proof resin such as PP to the outside of the EVOH.
[0029]
As the film used for the boil sterilizable skin pack package, the upper material needs to be a soft film in consideration of the skin pack, but the lower material needs to prevent deformation due to the boil sterilization PP, It is preferable to use a non-stretched thick sheet based on PP such as PP containing filler.
When an unstretched sheet based on PP is used, the lower material may be slightly deep-drawn and used.
[0030]
In particular, when an EVOH component is used for the cover material, the use of a slightly deep-drawn lower material, rather than a flat lower material, suppresses the generation of wrinkles, resulting in a packaged product having a good appearance.
[0031]
In the composite film of the present invention, it is preferable to use a layer having good oil resistance such as LL as the adjacent layer of the sealing layer.
[0032]

Using the composite film of the lower material and the upper material of Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7,
A skin pack packaged product was produced with a deep drawing packaging machine FV6300 (manufactured by Omori Machine Industry Co., Ltd.), and the following method test evaluation was performed. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0050]
<Evaluation method>
-The sealable upper material film is marked with a mark that can be sealed within the sealing temperature range where no hole is opened by heat. Those marked with an insufficient seal within the above temperature range were marked with x. Here, the fact that the seal is not attached means that the portion having an easy peel strength of 0.98 N / 15 mm width or less is approximately 1 cm 2 or more.
-Boil-resistant water, salad oil, and vinegar were included in a sponge and each packaged in a skin pack, sterilized by boiling at 95 ° C for 20 minutes, and no erosion of 3 mm or more occurred at the seal part. On the other hand, those with erosion of 3 mm or more were marked with x.
・ Packages prepared by the open-resistant skin pack test were opened, and those that could be easily opened were marked with ○. The ones with strong easy peel strength and difficult to open were marked with x.
[0051]
[Table 1]
[0052]
As shown in Table 1, Examples 1 to 3 comprising the composite film of the present invention were extremely good in sealing properties, boil resistance against water, salad oil and vinegar and easy-opening properties.
[0053]
On the other hand, the density of LL in the EP layer of the lower material is 0.912 g / cm.
Comparative Example 1 exceeding 3 has poor sealing properties. Seal portion to PB1 of density 0.895 g / cm 3 less than in Comparative Example 2 and Comparative Example 3, water and vinegar density of less than 0.895 g / cm 3 of LL of EP layer of EP layer of the lower member It can be seen that eroded and the boil resistance was inferior.
[0054]
Moreover, Comparative Example 4 using EVA in the EP layer of the lower material is inferior in boil resistance against water, salad oil, and vinegar, and Comparative Example 5 using ionomer resin in the EP layer of the lower material is voile resistance to vinegar. Is inferior.
[0055]
Further, Comparative Example 6 in which the blending ratio of LL and PB1 in the EP layer of the lower material exceeds 80% by mass and PB1 is less than 20% by mass is inferior in easy-openability, and the LL in the EP layer in the lower material is low. It can be seen that Comparative Example 7 in which is less than 40% by mass is inferior in sealing properties and boil resistance.
[0056]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, the composite film of the present invention has good sealing properties, can be sealed even when only the upper material is heated, and can be boil sterilized by packaging various foods. Excellent use as a skin pack packaging film.
