Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of heat-sealable film in packaging technology, in particular to a nylon film with high heat-seal strength and low heat-seal temperature containing a heteromorphic twin heat-seal layer and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Heat-sealable film is widely used in packaging field, involving food, medicine, logistics, household appliances and many other industries. Heat sealing is the main process of polymeric film bagging and packaging, and the heat sealing performance determines the specific application of the polymeric film. The most commonly used heat-sealable film in the prior art is a cast or biaxially oriented polypropylene or polyethylene film. In order to improve the mechanical properties and barrier properties of the heat-sealable film, a layer or more layers of nylon film are often compounded in the heat-sealable film due to the advantages of nylon film such as high temperature resistance, cold resistance, organic solvent resistance, puncture resistance, high barrier and the like. However, there is a problem of poor interfacial compatibility between polypropylene or polyethylene film and nylon film, and the adhesion strength between layers is low. In addition, compared with polyolefin film, the melting point of nylon film is high, for example, the melting point of nylon 6 is about 220℃, which leads to high heat-seal temperature, increases heat-seal energy consumption, limits the improvement of heat-seal speed, reduces the service life of heat-seal equipment, and the heat-seal performance is poor. Since the heat-sealing process is a process of polymer melting and recrystallization, the melting point can be reduced and the crystallinity can be improved by regulating the crystalline structure of nylon, so as to reduce the heat-seal temperature of nylon and improve the heat-seal strength at the same time.

[0003] Random copolymerization is an effective means to regulate the crystalline structure and heat-seal performance of nylon. For binary nylon random copolymer, the chemical structure of the copolymer unit is relatively similar, the component with high mass fraction as the main copolymer unit, and the component with low mass fraction as the secondary copolymer unit. The secondary copolymer unit can be arranged in the crystal lattice of the main copolymer unit and crystallized with the main unit, showing a heteromorphic twin crystallization behavior. In the random copolymer with heteromorphic twin behavior, the secondary copolymer unit can be regarded as a structural defect, resulting in changes in the thermodynamic properties of the copolymer, such as crystallization temperature, melting temperature, melting enthalpy and crystallization enthalpy. When the concentration of the two copolymer units is close, a pseudo-melting point appears, and the melting temperature and crystallization temperature of the copolymer at this component ratio are significantly lower than those of the corresponding homopolymer. For ordinary copolymers, although the melting point can be reduced by copolymerization, it is difficult to crystallize and recrystallize, and the crystallinity is low and the crystallization rate is slow, resulting in low heat-seal strength and heat-seal efficiency. SUMMARY

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention proposes a nylon film with high heat-sealing strength and low heat-sealing temperature containing a heterodimorphic heat-sealing layer, and its preparation method. The heterodimorphic random copolymer nylon has the advantages of a low and adjustable melting point, which can significantly reduce the initial sealing temperature of the nylon heat-sealing film. Due to its fast crystallization speed, easy melting and recrystallization, and high crystallinity, it can improve heat-sealing strength and efficiency. By using a random blend of nylon with heterodimorphic behavior as the heat-sealing layer, the prepared nylon heat-sealing film exhibits lower heat-sealing temperature, higher heat-sealing strength, and higher heat-sealing efficiency compared to heat-sealing films using nylon 6 or nylon 66 as the heat-sealing layer. Furthermore, compared to heat-sealing films containing both nylon and polypropylene layers, it shows better compatibility between layers, higher bonding strength, and superior mechanical properties and puncture resistance.

[0010] Furthermore, the thickness of the heat-sealing layer is 2-5 μm, and the total thickness of the nylon film is 20-30 μm.

[0057]

[0058] Compared with the nylon 6 and nylon 66 homopolymer heat-seal layers in the comparative examples, the heat-seal layer in the embodiment of the present application uses a binary random copolymer nylon that can be heteromorphic homodimer. Taking nylon 6 / 10 and nylon 6 / 12 copolymers as examples, the seal initiation temperature is 135°C and 115°C, respectively, which is much lower than 225°C of nylon 6 and 260°C of nylon 66, the heat-seal efficiency is significantly improved, and the heat-seal energy consumption is greatly reduced, which can be used in the field of rapid low-temperature heat-seal packaging. Taking nylon 66 / 610 and nylon 66 / 612 copolymers as examples, the seal initiation temperature is near 200°C, which is lower than the seal initiation temperature 225°C of nylon 6 and much lower than the seal initiation temperature 260°C of nylon 66, the heat-seal time is reduced, and the heat-seal strength is basically the same as that of nylon 6 and nylon 66, that is, the heat-seal energy consumption is reduced and the heat-seal efficiency is improved without affecting the heat-seal strength. Specifically to the nylon 66 / 610 random copolymer, from Figure 2 It can be seen from the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curves that by changing the copolymer component ratio, the melting point of the random copolymer nylon can be adjusted, and the melting point is obviously lower than that of a single component nylon. Therefore, by preparing a nylon containing heteromorphic homodimer through random copolymerization and applying it to the heat-seal layer, the heat-seal temperature can be significantly reduced. When the 66 unit ratio is 0.5, compared with the nylon 6 and nylon 66 heat-seal layer, the seal initiation temperature is reduced, the heat-seal time is shortened, and the heat-seal strength is improved, that is, all three performances are improved. From Figure 3 It can be seen from the wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) spectrum that both the single component nylon and the heteromorphic homodimer random copolymer nylon have sharp scattering peaks of α crystal type, indicating that the crystallinity is high, so that high heat-seal strength can be achieved after heat-sealing.

[0059] In summary, since near the pseudo-eutectic point, the melting temperature and crystallization temperature of the copolymer are lower than those of the corresponding single component homopolymer, and as the component ratio of the random copolymer nylon changes, the crystallization temperature and melting point change, therefore, by changing the component ratio of the random copolymer nylon that can be heteromorphic homodimer, the present application realizes the regulation of the thermodynamic properties such as the melting point and crystallization temperature of the random copolymer nylon, and further regulates the heat-seal performance when it is used as a heat-seal layer. Since the melting point of the random copolymer nylon that can be heteromorphic homodimer is lower than that of the corresponding single component homopolymer, the seal initiation temperature can be reduced, and the heat-seal energy consumption can be reduced. Due to the low melting point and fast crystallization rate, the heat-seal time is shortened, and the heat-seal efficiency is improved. Since the random copolymer nylon that can be heteromorphic homodimer is easy to melt and recrystallize and has high crystallinity, the heat-seal strength is high. Therefore, the nylon film with a heteromorphic homodimer heat-seal layer proposed in the present application has high heat-seal strength, low heat-seal temperature, and high heat-seal efficiency.
