Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a transparent, moisture-absorbing blister sheet having excellent transparency and high moisture absorption properties for suppressing moisture absorption by packaged contents, and a transparent, moisture-absorbing push-through package (PTP) base material and a transparent, moisture-absorbing PTP packaging body made using the transparent, moisture-absorbing blister sheet. The transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet of the present invention can be applied to products in various fields that dislike moisture. For example, it can be suitably used as a packaging material for preventing rust on metal products such as automotive screws, shafts, and metal plates, as well as electrical components, and as a packaging material for suppressing deterioration due to moisture in foods, medicines, and the like. [Background technology]
[0002] PTP packaging, strip package (SP) packaging, blister packaging, etc. are widely used for packaging medicines and foods that are sensitive to moisture, but many of the conventional products have insufficient moisture resistance. To compensate for this, aluminum foil pillow bags are used as outer bags and desiccants are also included. However, the moisture-proofing properties are insufficient after the outer bag is opened, and there have been many accidents where the desiccant has been accidentally ingested. Therefore, packaging bags have been developed for the purpose of transporting or long-term storage of medicines and food. Furthermore, there is a demand for packaging materials that have more stable moisture-proof, waterproof and barrier properties and that have a simple layer structure and can be produced through a manufacturing process with a small number of steps so as to maintain the quality of the medicines and food contents. Patent Documents 1 to 3 propose packaging laminates in which a highly vaporizable rust inhibitor that volatilizes at room temperature and exerts a rust-preventing effect is contained in a resin for the purpose of preventing rust on metal product contents. However, there are concerns that the rust-preventive agent may have effects other than the rust-preventive effect, such as the need for a sealed exterior, deterioration of the contents or functional impairment if the vaporized rust-preventive agent comes into contact with the contents, and removal is also troublesome, limiting its uses. Therefore, there is a demand for rust-preventive laminates that do not use volatile rust-preventive agents. In order to improve the moisture resistance of PTP or blister packaging materials, Patent Document 4 proposes incorporating a desiccant or a barrier layer into the packaging material. However, the transparency of the packaging material is insufficient, and the visibility for checking the deterioration state of the contents is poor. In addition, it has been proposed in Reference 5 to incorporate a moisture absorbent of approximately 100 nm in size into a packaging material to increase transparency. However, the moisture absorbent causes secondary aggregation, making it difficult to obtain high transparency. In addition, in order to increase transparency, the content of the moisture absorbent must be reduced, making it difficult to obtain sufficient moisture absorption capacity.

Furthermore, the risk of losing tablets, dropping them, or identifying broken tablets can be reduced. Furthermore, when the contents are metal products such as metal equipment, rusting of the metal products can be prevented, eliminating the need to protect the metal products with oiled paper or the like that has been used conventionally.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0009] The transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet, the transparent moisture-absorbing PTP base material, and the transparent moisture-absorbing PTP package of the present invention will be described in more detail below. Specific examples will be given, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In the present invention, the terms film and sheet are used synonymously, and water absorption or moisture absorption refers to the absorption of gaseous and / or liquid water.
[0010] I. Transparent moisture absorbing blister sheet The transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet of the present invention may be composed of only one absorbent layer containing a moisture absorbent and a binder resin, or may further have a substrate layer on one or both sides of the moisture-absorbing layer. Furthermore, each of the absorbent layer and the base layer may be multi-layered. In addition, the transparent, moisture-absorbing blister sheet of the present invention can maintain transparency even after absorbing moisture, for example, after being left to stand for 11 days in an environment at a temperature of 25°C and a humidity of 50% RH, or at a temperature of 40°C and a humidity of 90% RH.
[0011] The moisture absorption amount of the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet of the present invention is, for example, 3 g / m2 when placed in an environment of 25°C and 50% for 11 days. 2If the moisture absorption amount is less than the above range, it is likely to be difficult to suppress deterioration of the contents, whereas if the moisture absorption amount is greater than the above range, it is substantially difficult to obtain a product.
[0012] The transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet of the present invention may contain an antioxidant. However, phenol-based antioxidants are not preferred because they tend to cause yellowing of the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet, and it is preferable to contain an antioxidant other than the phenol-based antioxidant. Preferred antioxidants include phosphorus-based antioxidants and / or thioether-based antioxidants.
[0013] The transparent moisture absorbing blister sheet of the present invention has high transparency because the moisture absorbent is fine and the difference in refractive index between the moisture absorbent and the binder resin is small, thereby suppressing interfacial reflection and scattering. The total light transmittance of the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet of the present invention is preferably 60% or more, more preferably 80% or more, before moisture absorption and after moisture absorption at 25° C. and 50% for 11 days. If the total light transmittance is lower than the above range, the transparency is likely to decrease. The upper limit is most preferably 100%, but substantially, it is preferably 99% or less, and more preferably 95% or less. Here, the total light transmittance refers to the light transmittance measured using a color information measuring device or the like according to the method specified in JIS K7361 (Testing method for optical properties of plastics).
[0014] The haze of the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet of the present invention is preferably 70% or less, more preferably 30% or less, before moisture absorption and after moisture absorption at 25° C. and 50% for 11 days. If the haze is higher than the above range, the transparency is likely to decrease. The lower limit is most preferably 0%, but substantially, it is preferably 10% or more, and more preferably 14% or more.
[0015] If the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet lacks support (rigidity), it may further include a reinforcing layer.
[0016] Although there is no particular limitation on the thickness of the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet of the present invention, it is preferably 150 μm or more and 500 μm or less, and more preferably 200 μm or more and 400 μm or less. If it is thinner than the above range, it is difficult to fully exhibit the moisture absorption effect and the moisture absorption effect resulting therefrom, and if it is thicker than the above range, the moisture absorption effect is not improved so much, and the rigidity of the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet becomes too strong, which tends to make it difficult to use as a packaging material and tends to reduce transparency. The layers constituting the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet may be laminated via an adhesive layer or an anchor coat layer.
[0017] <Method of manufacturing transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet> The method for producing the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet of the present invention will be described below. The method for producing the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet shown below is one example and is not intended to limit the present invention. The formation and lamination of each layer constituting the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet can be carried out by any method, such as wet lamination, dry lamination, solventless dry lamination, extrusion lamination, T-die coextrusion molding, coextrusion lamination, inflation molding, and the like. When the above lamination is performed, if necessary, the surface of each layer may be subjected to a pretreatment such as corona treatment, ozone treatment, etc. Also, anchor coating agents such as isocyanate (urethane), polyethyleneimine, polybutadiene, and organic titanium, or anchor coating agents such as polyurethane, polyacrylic, polyester, epoxy, polyvinyl acetate, cellulose, and other lamination adhesives may be used as desired.
[0018] For example, when preparing a transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet having a layer structure of substrate layer 1 / moisture-absorbing layer / substrate layer 2, a resin composition for substrate layer 1, a resin composition for the moisture-absorbing layer, and a resin composition for substrate layer 2 can be formed into films and laminated by inflation film formation. The obtained transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet can also be subjected to secondary processing for the purpose of imparting surface functions such as chemical functions, electrical functions, magnetic functions, mechanical functions, friction / wear / lubrication functions, optical functions, thermal functions, and biocompatibility, within the scope that maintains transparency and moisture absorption properties.
[0019] Examples of secondary processing include embossing, painting, adhesive, printing, metallizing (plating, etc.), machining, surface treatment (antistatic treatment, corona discharge treatment, plasma treatment, photochromism treatment, physical vapor deposition, chemical vapor deposition, coating, etc.) etc. The transparent moisture absorbing blister sheet can also be subjected to lamination (dry lamination or extrusion lamination), bag making, and other post-processing.

If the content is less than the above range, the moisture absorbing effect is likely to be insufficient, and if the content is more than the above range, the film formability is likely to be poor.
[0022] Although there is no particular limitation on the thickness of the moisture absorbing layer, it is preferably 80 μm or more and 300 μm or less, and more preferably 100 μm or more and 250 μm or less. If it is thinner than the above range, it is difficult to fully exert the moisture absorbing effect, and if it is thicker than the above range, the moisture absorbing effect is not improved so much, and the rigidity of the transparent moisture absorbing blister sheet becomes too strong, which tends to make it difficult to use as a packaging material.
[0023] The moisture absorbent is preferably incorporated into the moisture absorbing layer via a master batch in which the moisture absorbent is melt-blended with a thermoplastic resin. Specifically, it is preferable to prepare a master batch by melt blending the moisture absorbent with a thermoplastic resin at a relatively high concentration, and then dry blending the master batch with a binder resin to obtain a desired concentration in the moisture absorbing layer. The thermoplastic resin to be melt-blended may be one type or two or more types, and may be the same as the binder resin.
[0024] The content of the moisture absorbent in the master batch is preferably 20% by mass or more and 90% by mass or less, and more preferably 30% by mass or more and 70% by mass or less. Within the above range, it is easy to include a necessary and sufficient amount of the moisture absorbent in the moisture absorbing layer in a dispersed state.
[0025] [Moisture absorbent] There is no particular limitation on the number average particle size of the moisture absorbent. However, in order to obtain stable film-forming properties, the number average particle size of the moisture absorbent is preferably 10 μm or less, more preferably 7 μm or less, and even more preferably 1 μm or less. If it is larger than the above range, the film-forming properties tend to decrease, and the transparency of the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet also tends to decrease. The number average particle size of the moisture absorbent is preferably 0.1 μm or more, as it is difficult to stably obtain a moisture absorbent smaller than the above range. There is no particular restriction on the refractive index of the moisture absorbent, but the smaller the difference in refractive index between the moisture absorbent and the binder resin, the greater the transparency of the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet. The difference in refractive index between the moisture absorbent and the binder resin is preferably 0.05 or less. The moisture absorbent preferably contains hydrotalcite.

[0031] (thermoplastic resin) The thermoplastic resin other than the binder resin contained in the moisture absorbing layer is preferably a resin that has excellent dispersibility of the moisture absorbent, does not significantly reduce the moisture absorption or transparency of the transparent moisture absorbing blister sheet, and can withstand use as a packaging material, and may also be a heat-sealable resin.

When the base layer contains these resins, the gas barrier property and moisture resistance of the transparent moisture absorbing blister sheet can be improved. In addition, it is preferable that these resins have the rigidity required for the base layer. When the base layer contains these resins having rigidity, the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet has excellent moldability, and can form the PTP base material and maintain its shape.
[0035] The substrate layer may be configured with multiple layers having the same or different compositions, and layers within the substrate layer may be laminated via an adhesive layer. The substrate layer may be laminated directly to the moisture absorbing layer or the reinforcing layer, or may be laminated via an adhesive layer, an anchor coat layer, or the like.
[0036] The total light transmittance of the base layer is preferably 60% or more and 99% or less, more preferably 65% or more and 95% or less. If it is lower than the above range, the transparency of the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet as a whole tends to be poor, and it is easy to make it difficult to visually confirm the contents.

[0055] [Examples 2, 6, 7, 12, Comparative Examples 1, 2, 4] A transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the types and amounts of the binder resin and moisture absorbent were changed to those shown in Tables 1 to 3, and was evaluated in the same manner.
[0056] [Example 3] The following parts by mass of PVC resin 1 and moisture absorbent 1 were mixed in a ribbon blender to prepare a resin composition for a moisture absorbent layer. PVC resin 1 64 parts by mass Moisture absorbent 1 36 parts by weight Then, the resin composition for the moisture absorbing layer obtained above and PVC resin 1 for base layers 1 and 2 were used to obtain a transparent moisture absorbing blister sheet having the following three-layer structure by co-extrusion molding. Base layer 1 / moisture absorption layer / base layer 2 = PVC resin 1 (75μm thickness) / resin composition for moisture absorption layer (100μm thickness) / PVC resin 1 (75μm thickness)
[0057] [Examples 4, 5, 8, 11, 13, Comparative Example 5] A transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet was obtained in the same manner as in Example 3, except that the composition and thickness of the moisture-absorbing layer and the type and thickness of the base layers 1 and 2 were changed to those shown in Tables 1 to 3, and was evaluated in the same manner.
[0058] [Example 9] The following parts by mass of PVC resin for binder resin 1 and moisture absorbent 1 were mixed in a ribbon blender, then melt-kneaded using a mill roll, and calender-molded to obtain a moisture absorbent layer sheet having a thickness of 200 μm. PVC resin 1 81.5 parts by mass Moisture absorbent 1 18.5 parts by weight Next, AC agent 1 was applied to one side of the obtained sheet for moisture absorbing layer and dried to form an anchor coat layer having a thickness of 2 μm (after drying). Then, PVDC resin 1 was applied onto the surface of the resulting anchor coat layer and dried to form a base layer 1 having a thickness of 7 μm (after drying). Furthermore, PVDC resin 2 was applied and dried on the surface of the obtained base layer 1, and this was repeated six times to form a PVDC layer 2 having a thickness of 42 μm after drying, thereby obtaining a transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet having the following layer structure. Base layer [PVDC layer 2 / PVDC layer 1 / anchor coat layer] / moisture absorbing layer=[PVDC resin 2 (42 μm thick) / PVDC resin 1 (7 μm thick) / AC agent 1 (2 μm thick)] / resin composition for moisture absorbing layer (100 μm thick)
[0059] [Example 10, Comparative Example 3] A transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet was obtained in the same manner as in Example 9, except that the composition and thickness of the moisture-absorbing layer were changed to those shown in Table 1, and was evaluated in the same manner.
[0060] <Evaluation method>
[0061] [Film forming property] The appearance of the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet was observed with the naked eye, and the presence or absence of defects was evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria. Passed: The transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet had no wrinkles, bumps, or peeling. Rejected: The transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet had wrinkles, bumps, or peeling.
[0062] [Moisture absorption amount] The transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet was cut into a size of 100 mm length x 100 mm width, and left to stand for 11 days in an environment of 25°C temperature and 50% RH. The weight change of the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet was then calculated based on the weight of the blister sheet. 2 The amount of moisture absorbed per unit was determined.
[0063] [Total light transmittance and haze] The transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet was cut to dimensions of 50 mm in length x 50 mm in width, and the total light transmittance and haze of the transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet were measured using a color information measuring device, a haze meter (HM-150, manufactured by Murakami Color Research Laboratory Co., Ltd.), in accordance with JIS K7361 (Testing method for optical properties of plastics).
[0064] [Packaging manufacturability] The PTP was formed using a blister pack molding machine (CKD Corporation), the bottom of the PTP package was made from a transparent moisture-absorbing blister sheet, and an aluminum PTP lid material was heat-sealed to produce the PTP package. When the aluminum PTP lid material was heat sealed to a layer containing a polyolefin resin, ALT-PP (manufactured by Kanae Co., Ltd.) was used as the aluminum PTP lid material, and when the aluminum PTP lid material was heat sealed to a layer containing a polyvinyl chloride resin, ALT-VC (manufactured by Kanae Co., Ltd.) was used as the aluminum PTP lid material. The pass / fail criteria are as follows: Passed: No wrinkles occurred during PTP molding and molding was successful. Rejected: Numerous wrinkles occurred during PTP molding, and good molding was not possible.
