Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of polymer composite materials, and particularly relates to a high-temperature resistant retort packaging material with a multi-layer composite structure, which is particularly suitable for the aseptic packaging of food and pharmaceutical products under high-temperature sterilization conditions, and has high barrier properties, antibacterial properties, mechanical strength and long-term stability, and can meet the long-term storage requirements of acidic or high-fat contents. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid growth of the demand for aseptic packaging in the food and pharmaceutical industries, high-temperature resistant retort packaging materials urgently need to achieve performance breakthroughs in terms of barrier properties, mechanical strength, corrosion resistance to media and antibacterial properties. Existing high-temperature retort packaging materials generally adopt multi-layer composite structures such as polyester, nylon, polypropylene and aluminum foil. Although they have the ability to withstand high-temperature sterilization above 121 °C, there are still many technical bottlenecks and application limitations in their comprehensive performance. Although the traditional aluminum foil composite structure shows excellent oxygen barrier properties, with an oxygen transmission rate as low as 1 cm³ / (m²·day·atm), its rigid structure results in insufficient flexibility, and microcracks are easily generated during cooking, transportation and storage, which seriously affects the integrity of the barrier layer, leading to a rapid increase in the oxygen transmission rate and water vapor transmission rate. In addition, aluminum foil is opaque, not microwave-heatable, and the recycling process is complex, posing challenges to environmental protection and unable to meet the current trends of circular economy and green packaging.
[0003] Although materials such as polyester and nylon provide certain mechanical strength and heat resistance, the interfacial bonding between them and polyolefins or aluminum foils usually relies on solvent-based adhesives, which not only increases the process cost but also poses a potential food safety hazard due to solvent residues. As a commonly used substrate, polypropylene has good thermal stability, but due to its relatively hard texture, its heat-sealing performance and flexibility are insufficient, and the heat-sealing strength is generally lower than 25 N / 15mm. Under high-temperature cooking conditions, affected by temperature and medium, its molecular chains are prone to breakage, resulting in a heat-sealing strength attenuation of more than 30%, which affects the packaging integrity and shelf life. In terms of the barrier layer, high-barrier materials such as ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH) perform excellently in a dry environment, but are prone to hydrolysis in a high-humidity or acidic environment (pH < 5), leading to a significant decrease in barrier performance, and the oxygen transmission rate can increase to more than 10 cm³ / (m²·day·atm). In addition, the high-humidity and high-temperature environment will accelerate the water absorption and swelling of the nylon layer, resulting in a decrease in the dimensional stability of the film material, and thus affecting the integrity of the heat-sealing interface. Regarding the risk of microbial contamination, although traditional inorganic antibacterial agents such as nano-zinc oxide and silver ions have antibacterial effects, their interfacial compatibility with the polyolefin matrix is poor, and they are prone to agglomeration during processing to form microdefects, resulting in pinhole effects in the heat-sealing layer or barrier layer, and there are also potential food safety hazards of excessive migration amounts (such as zinc ion migration amount > 0.1 mg / kg). More seriously, the agglomeration of some inorganic nanoparticles intensifies after high-temperature cooking, and the antibacterial performance decays rapidly, unable to meet the long-term antibacterial requirements. In terms of the high-temperature resistant layer, although the commonly used cast polypropylene film has a high crystallinity (isotacticity ≥ 94%) and good high-temperature cooking performance, its tensile strength is only 30 - 35 MPa, and the low-temperature notched impact strength ≤ 50 kJ / m², which cannot meet the impact resistance requirements of high-fat or frozen foods during logistics and storage. Although glass fiber-reinforced polypropylene can improve the mechanical properties, its interfacial bonding with the matrix is weak, and it is prone to delamination and demarcation during high-temperature cooking, resulting in a decrease in the overall stability of the material.
[0004] In recent years, nano-composite barrier layers have become a research hotspot. By compounding nano-zinc oxide with a polymer matrix and improving the interfacial compatibility by methods such as surface grafting of tannic acid, the nano-particles can form coordination bonds or hydrogen bond networks with the matrix, significantly enhancing the dispersion uniformity and hydrothermal stability. For example, for the composite film of tannic acid-grafted nano-zinc oxide and polychlorotrifluoroethylene, its oxygen permeability can be stably maintained below 3 cm³ / (m²·day·atm). Even after being steamed at 121°C for 40 minutes, its barrier performance can still remain stable. However, the dispersion of nano-particles, surface modification, and energy consumption in the preparation process are still bottlenecks restricting their large-scale application. Especially during the ultraviolet curing or high-temperature melting process, the energy consumption is relatively high, and the production cost is higher than that of traditional composite films. The development of bio-based modified materials provides new ideas for green packaging. After being cross-linked and modified with calcium ions, the hygroscopicity of deacetylated glucomannan is significantly reduced, its thermal decomposition temperature ≥ 300°C, and it can achieve good interfacial bonding with maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene through ester bonds and hydrogen bonds, with an overall tensile strength of more than 40 MPa. Such composite systems not only improve the hydrothermal stability and mechanical properties but also have high degradability and environmental protection characteristics. However, deacetylated glucomannan still faces problems such as raw material cost control and the stability of modification efficiency during large-scale production. In terms of long-term antibacterial properties, the technology of cyclodextrin microcapsules loaded with silver ions has gradually matured. Its slow-release characteristics enable the release rate of silver ions to be controlled at 0.05 μg / (cm²·day), ensuring an antibacterial rate ≥ 99.5% and the migration amount meeting the food safety standards. However, in the traditional melt blending preparation process, the microcapsules are prone to breakage due to high shear force and high-temperature conditions, with a breakage rate of more than 30%, affecting the effective loading and long-term release effect of the antibacterial agent. Using supercritical carbon dioxide fluid technology can effectively reduce the processing temperature, achieve the uniform embedding of silver ion microcapsules, and improve the stability of the antibacterial agent and the environmental protection of the processing process. However, this technology has high requirements for equipment and a large cost investment.
[0005] From the perspective of market trends, high-value-added food packaging, such as acidic sauces and high-fat dairy products, poses higher requirements for packaging materials, which need to have acid corrosion resistance, anti-grease penetration, low-temperature impact resistance, and dimensional stability. Currently, in existing multi-layer composite materials, the barrier layer is prone to degradation in an acidic environment, and the penetration rate of fat-soluble components is high, resulting in a shelf life of usually 6 - 12 months, making it difficult to meet the demand for a shelf life of more than 24 months. The development trends of green manufacturing and circular economy have promoted the research and development of aluminum-free and single-material (such as all-polypropylene) structural materials. The all-polypropylene structure has good recyclability, with a recovery rate of over 95%, but there is still a gap in its barrier performance compared with traditional aluminum foil composite films. How to improve the barrier properties and comprehensive mechanical properties of all-polypropylene materials without sacrificing environmental protection has become an important research direction in the future. In addition, the popularization of ultra-high temperature short-time sterilization (145°C / 3 min) technology has put forward higher requirements for the dimensional stability (thermal shrinkage rate ≤ 1.5%) and sealing integrity of packaging materials. Under the condition of 145°C, the heat-sealing strength of existing polychlorotrifluoroethylene films decays by ≥ 50%, and the interfacial compatibility problem between the barrier layer and the antibacterial layer leads to unstable overall performance, making it unable to fully meet the requirements of the ultra-high temperature short-time sterilization process. At the same time, the risk of additive migration under ultra-high temperature short-time sterilization conditions increases, and a barrier and antibacterial system with higher stability needs to be developed. Summary of the Invention
[0006] Aiming at the technical bottlenecks of existing high-temperature cooking resistant packaging materials in terms of barrier properties, antibacterial properties, mechanical strength, and environmental adaptability, the present invention proposes a packaging material with a five-layer composite structure, which realizes a comprehensive improvement in performance under high-temperature sterilization conditions through innovative material combinations, interface optimization, and process design.

[0008] The application of the described high-temperature retort packaging material in the high-temperature sterilization packaging of food and pharmaceutical products. After being treated by retorting at 121 °C for 40 minutes, the water vapor transmission rate ≤ 2 g / (m²·day), the oxygen transmission rate ≤ 3 cm³ / (m²·day·atm), the antibacterial rate against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus ≥ 99.5%, the heat seal strength retention rate ≥ 90%, it is suitable for aseptic packaging of acidic pH 3 - 5 or high-fat content ≥ 20% of the contents, and the shelf life ≥ 24 months.
[0009] Through the design of a multi-layer composite structure and process innovation, the present invention significantly improves the comprehensive performance of packaging materials under high-temperature cooking conditions. In the outer layer, the synergistic effect of modified glucomannan and maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene inhibits moisture absorption and swelling through calcium ion cross-linking, enabling the material to maintain stable mechanical properties (tensile strength ≥ 38 MPa) in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment. At the same time, the corona treatment strength ≥ 40 dyne / cm solves the problem of poor printing suitability of the traditional polypropylene outer layer. The barrier layer is composed of nano-zinc oxide grafted with tannic acid on the surface and poly(chlorotrifluoroethylene) composite, combined with a silicon oxide deposition layer, forming a dual-barrier network of hydrogen bonds and coordination bonds. After cooking at 121 °C for 40 minutes, the oxygen transmission rate ≤ 3 cm³ / (m²·day·atm) and the water vapor transmission rate ≤ 2 g / (m²·day). Although slightly higher than that of the traditional aluminum foil composite film (oxygen transmission rate ≤ 1 cm³ / (m²·day·atm)), it avoids the barrier failure caused by aluminum foil cracking and has a stability improvement of more than 80% in an acidic environment with pH 3 - 5. In the adhesive layer, the composite system of epoxy-modified silicone resin and polyurethane enables the interlayer peel strength ≥ 6 N / 15mm, and there is no interface delamination after cooking, overcoming the problem of adhesive force attenuation caused by hydrothermal aging of traditional adhesives. The high-temperature resistant layer modifies random copolymer polypropylene with hydrogenated styrene-butadiene block copolymer and introduces glass fibers with a high aspect ratio (aspect ratio ≥ 50), making the notched impact strength of the material ≥ 88 kJ / m² at -40 °C, a 76% increase compared to ordinary RCPP (≤ 50 kJ / m²). At the same time, the tensile strength ≥ 45 MPa meets the anti-deformation requirements for packaging high-fat contents. The heat-sealing layer uses supercritical carbon dioxide-embedded silver ion microcapsules (Ag@CD), with a silver ion release rate ≤ 0.05 μg / (cm²·day), an antibacterial rate ≥ 99.5%, and a microcapsule breakage rate ≤ 3%. It avoids the sudden release of silver ions caused by traditional melt blending (migration amount ≤ 0.01 mg / kg, far lower than the national standard limit of 0.1 mg / kg). At the same time, the blend system of metallocene polyethylene and high-density polyethylene enables the heat-sealing strength ≥ 25 N / 15mm, and the retention rate after cooking ≥ 90%, solving the contradiction between the low heat-sealing strength of the traditional CPP heat-sealing layer (< 20 N / 15mm) and the difficulty of compatible antibacterial function. In addition, the all-polypropylene substrate structure enables the material recyclability ≥ 95%, meeting the EU EN 13432 standard. Compared with the traditional polyester / aluminum foil / PP composite film (recycling rate < 5%), it significantly reduces the environmental load. Verified by actual application, the shelf life of this material for acidic sauces (pH 3.5) and high-fat prefabricated dishes (fat content 25%) is extended to more than 24 months, and the attenuation rate of water and oxygen barrier performance ≤ 10%. It is applicable to strict processes such as ultra-high temperature short-time sterilization (145 °C / 3min), filling the technical gaps in long-term antibacterial, corrosion resistance to media, and green recycling of existing materials.
