AI Technical Summary
Existing polyethylene heavy packaging films have high production costs and thick film thickness when polyolefin elastomers are added, resulting in a large amount of waste. There is a need to develop a new formulation that can reduce the thickness and improve the overall performance without adding elastomers.
The polyethylene heavy-duty packaging film adopts a three-layer structure: the inner layer is composed of high-density polyethylene resin, metallocene polyethylene resin I, and metallocene polyethylene resin II; the middle layer is composed of high-density polyethylene resin and metallocene polyethylene resin; and the outer layer is composed of high-density polyethylene resin and metallocene polyethylene resin. The performance is improved by optimizing the proportion and thickness ratio of each component and adding hexahydrophthalic acid metal salt compounds.
This technology enables the reduction of polyethylene heavy packaging film thickness and the improvement of its overall performance, including tear resistance and puncture resistance, without increasing production costs.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of polyethylene heavy-duty packaging film technology, and specifically to a polyethylene heavy-duty packaging film. Background Technology
[0002] Polyethylene heavy-duty packaging film is a new type of packaging film. Generally, packaging films capable of holding 10-50 kg of solid granules or powdered materials are called heavy-duty packaging films, typically in 25 kg bags. Polyethylene heavy-duty packaging bags offer advantages such as high automation in packaging, good sealing, excellent moisture and dirt resistance, good aging resistance, and extended shelf life. Early polyethylene heavy-duty packaging bags were mainly made from blends of general-purpose linear polyethylene and low-density polyethylene resin, but they were relatively thick, around 150-200 μm, resulting in higher production costs and a higher total amount of waste after unpacking and using the materials.
[0003] Chinese invention patent CN111483196B discloses a method for preparing a three-layer co-extruded heavy-duty packaging film, providing a heavy-duty packaging film with good mechanical properties. However, its formulation includes a high content of polyolefin elastomer. Currently, the average price of polyolefin elastomer is over 20,000 yuan / ton, while the average price of polyethylene resin is less than 10,000 yuan / ton. Therefore, the addition of a high content of polyolefin elastomer significantly increases production costs. Furthermore, this patent does not specify the thickness of the prepared heavy-duty packaging film. Chinese invention patent CN115635750A discloses a low-temperature resistant three-layer co-extruded heavy-duty packaging film, providing a high-strength heavy-duty packaging film. However, the film thickness is 160μm, and the addition of a high content of polyolefin elastomer results in higher material usage and costs during production, and also generates more waste after use. Additionally, the addition of a high content of LDPE and LLDPE resins in this invention reduces the mechanical properties of the film.
[0004] Therefore, in order to address the aforementioned problems with existing polyethylene heavy-duty packaging films, it is necessary to develop a new formulation for three-layer co-extruded polyethylene heavy-duty packaging films, which can produce polyethylene heavy-duty packaging films with high overall performance without adding polyolefin elastomers, which have high production costs. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a polyethylene heavy packaging film. Through the formulation design of the inner, middle and outer three layers and the optimization of each component in the formulation, the thickness of the polyethylene heavy packaging film is reduced and its overall performance is improved without adding elastomer.
[0006] The technical solution of this invention is as follows:
[0007] A polyethylene heavy-duty packaging film comprises three layers: an inner layer and an outer layer. The inner layer comprises the following components in parts by weight: 10-25 parts of low-density polyethylene resin (LDPE), 20-40 parts of metallocene polyethylene resin I (mPE1), and 50-70 parts of metallocene polyethylene resin II (mPE2). The middle layer comprises the following components in parts by weight: 10-40 parts of high-density polyethylene resin (HDPE), 10-50 parts of metallocene polyethylene resin I, 20-50 parts of metallocene polyethylene resin II, and 0.06-0.1 parts of a metal hexahydrophthalic acid (HEPA) salt compound, preferably 0.06 parts of the HEPA metal salt compound. The outer layer comprises the following components in parts by weight: 10-25 parts of low-density polyethylene resin, 20-40 parts of metallocene polyethylene resin I, and 50-70 parts of metallocene polyethylene resin II.

[0011] Preferably, the metallocene polyethylene resin 2 is subjected to crystallization thermal classification analysis using DSC, wherein the content of lamellar crystals with a thickness of 9 nm or more is 22-30%, and the content of lamellar crystals with a thickness of 6 nm or less is 48-55%.

Its weight-average molecular weight is greater than 130,000, and the content of the portion with a weight-average molecular weight of more than 1,000,000 is greater than 0.35%. The higher the molecular weight and the greater the content of the high molecular weight portion, the better it is to improve the mechanical properties of the material.
[0013] Preferably, the comonomers of metallocene polyethylene resin II are analyzed using carbon NMR spectroscopy, and the molar percentage of the comonomers is 3.20-3.60 mol.
[0014] Preferably, the hexahydrophthalic acid metal salt compound is calcium hexahydrophthalate. Experiments have shown that adding the hexahydrophthalic acid metal salt compound can improve the tear resistance and puncture resistance of polyethylene heavy packaging film.

[0017] This invention provides a three-layer polyethylene heavy packaging film. Through the formulation design of the inner, middle and outer layers and the optimization of each component in the formulation, the thickness of the polyethylene heavy packaging film is reduced and its overall performance is improved without adding elastomers.

[0070] The thickness ratio of the inner, middle and outer layers is 1:2:1, and the total thickness is 120μm.
[0071] The performance of the polyethylene heavy packaging films prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-8 was evaluated according to the following methods:
[0072] Tensile properties: tested according to GB / T 1040.3-2006, using type 5 specimens, with a tensile speed of 200 mm / min;
[0073] Tear resistance: Tested according to GB / T 11999-1989, using rectangular specimens;
[0074] Drop impact strength: conducted according to GB / T 9639-2008.
[0075] The test results are shown in Table 1-2:
[0076] Table 1
[0077]
[0078] Table 2
[0079]
[0080] As shown in Tables 1-2, the absence of calcium hexahydrophthalate in the middle layer of the packaging film in Comparative Example 1 results in lower tear resistance and drop weight impact strength of the prepared polyethylene heavy-duty packaging film. This is mainly because the addition of calcium hexahydrophthalate in the examples increased the crystallization orientation of polyethylene during film processing, thereby improving the tear and puncture resistance of the film. Comparative Example 2 used a density of 0.914 g / cm³. 3 Compared to mPE2 in the examples, the resin in Comparative Example 2 has a higher comonomer content. Theoretically, for resins with similar properties, a higher comonomer content should result in better puncture and tear resistance in the processed film. However, structural analysis revealed that the mPE2 resin in Comparative Example 2 had a low polymer content and a low content of high-molecular-weight comonomers, resulting in no improvement in the final film performance despite its high comonomer content. The LDPE resin used in Comparative Example 3 had a low density and a high melt index, leading to a decrease in the mechanical properties of the film. The mPE1 resin used in Comparative Example 4 had an increased density, resulting in a decrease in the longitudinal tear and drop dart impact strength of the film. The HDPE resin used in Comparative Example 5 had a decreased density, resulting in a decrease in the transverse tear and transverse tensile properties of the film. Comparative Example 6 did not add HDPE resin, resulting in low tensile strength and transverse tear resistance of the film. Comparative Examples 7 and 8 added propylene-based elastomers, but due to the addition of a large amount of LLDPE resin, the drop dart impact strength was low. Additionally, the film thickness of Comparative Example 7 was high, increasing production costs and making thinning and reinforcement impossible.
[0081] This invention utilizes a low-density metallocene polyethylene resin with a specific molecular structure. Although its comonomer content is relatively low, it possesses unique characteristics such as different thickness lamellar distributions and molecular weight distributions. This breaks the rule that resins with the same specifications have poor mechanical properties when the comonomer content is low. Packaging films processed using this resin have higher comprehensive performance, exceeding the level of resins with the same specifications but higher comonomer content.
