Description
[0001] Cross - reference to related applications
[0002] This application claims the priority and benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10 - 2023 - 0170987, filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office on November 30, 2023, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. Technical field
[0003] Embodiments of the present invention relate to a high - density polyethylene film and a flexible packaging film containing the same. Background art
[0004] Recently, regulations on recycling have been continuously strengthened worldwide. With the change in social responsibility awareness of inherent sustainability and solutions to widespread environmental problems, companies are also striving to design flexible packaging materials that are easy to collect, classify, and recycle.
[0005] The most effective method is to use packaging materials produced from a single material instead of conventional packaging produced from a mixture of multiple materials. In particular, packaging materials produced from a single material such as polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP) are easily recyclable and contribute to improving the quality of recycled products.
[0006] For this purpose, biaxially oriented polyethylene (BOPE) films are required. Generally, when using the tenterframe process as the process for preparing biaxially oriented polyethylene films and stretching the films in the machine direction (MD) and the transverse direction (TD), the polyethylene chains and crystal structures are highly oriented, thereby providing improved mechanical strength, especially improved impact strength, and significantly improved optical properties such as transparency and film appearance.
[0007] However, during film processing, the tenterframe process is greatly affected by the molecular structure of the raw materials, and the stretching process conditions are very strict. Generally, polyethylene (PE) has a narrow stretching temperature range and a very low stretching rate due to its high crystallization rate and excellent crystallinity, and polyethylene films will break when wrinkled during the stretching process or have uneven thickness during the stretching process. In particular, BOPE films produced from high - density polyethylene (HDPE) exhibit high heat resistance and significantly improved modulus, but, disadvantageously, they are difficult to stretch and have low transparency compared to BOPE films produced from linear low - density polyethylene (LLDPE).
[0008] Therefore, there is a need for a high - density polyethylene film applicable to recyclable single - material flexible packaging films, which has excellent mechanical properties, especially high modulus and excellent transparency, and is easily biaxially stretchable by the tenterframe process.
[0009] The information disclosed in this section is only for enhancing the understanding of the background of the present invention, and thus may include information that does not constitute the prior art.

[0043] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0044] Before the description, the meanings of the terms used herein will be briefly described. However, the explanations of the terms are provided for better understanding of the present invention, and these terms should not be construed as limiting the technical idea of the present invention unless the context clearly indicates that the terms are used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0045] The high-density polyethylene film according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an intermediate layer containing a first high-density polyethylene resin, and a first surface layer and a second surface layer respectively provided on two surfaces of the intermediate layer, and the first surface layer and the second surface layer contain a second high-density polyethylene resin.
[0046] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a high-density polyethylene film according to an embodiment. Referring to Figure 1 , the high-density polyethylene film 100 includes an intermediate layer 10 and surface layers 20 formed on each of two surfaces of the intermediate layer 10. More specifically, a first surface layer 21 and a second surface layer 22 are provided on two surfaces of the intermediate layer 10.
[0047] In one embodiment, each of the intermediate layer, the first surface layer, and the second surface layer of the high-density polyethylene film may have a single-layer structure or a multi-layer structure including 2 to 5 layers. For example, the first surface layer and the second surface layer may have a single-layer structure, and the intermediate layer may have a multi-layer structure including 2 to 4 layers. Such a high-density polyethylene film having a multi-layer structure can select high-density polyethylene suitable for its functional requirements, diversify the change of physical properties according to the composition of its layers, and provide excellent thickness distribution uniformity of each layer.
[0048] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating a high-density polyethylene film according to an embodiment. Referring to Figure 2 , the high-density polyethylene film 100 has the following structure: the first surface layer 21 and the second surface layer 22 have a single-layer structure, and the intermediate layer 10 has a multi-layer structure including a first intermediate layer 11, a second intermediate layer 10, and a third intermediate layer 12.
[0049] The high-density polyethylene film may be a film that is biaxially stretched by a tenter frame process at a longitudinal (MD) draw ratio of 4 to 7 times and a transverse (TD) draw ratio of 8 to 10 times in sequence. By adjusting the draw ratios in the longitudinal (MD) and transverse (TD) directions within this range, the desired effect of improving physical properties is obtained due to the sufficient orientation of crystals, but it is difficult to ensure a draw ratio higher than a predetermined draw ratio due to equipment limitations.
[0050] The thickness of the high-density polyethylene film may be 15 - 70 μm or 20 - 50 μm. When the thickness of the high-density polyethylene film is controlled within the above range, excellent mechanical properties can be obtained without causing problems such as difficulty in obtaining a thin final film due to excessive film thickness.
[0051] Based on the total amount of the high-density polyethylene film, the amount of the intermediate layer may be 70 - 98 wt%, 80 - 95 wt%, or 85 - 95 wt%. Additionally, based on the total amount of the high-density polyethylene film, the total amount of the first surface layer and the second surface layer may be 2 - 30 wt%, 5 - 20 wt%, or 5 - 15 wt%. By adjusting the thicknesses of the intermediate layer, the first surface layer, and the second surface layer to the above ranges, the thickness uniformity of the high-density polyethylene film can be further improved, mechanical properties can be ensured, and transparency can be enhanced.
[0052] In one embodiment, the first high-density polyethylene resin may be used alone as the resin for forming the intermediate layer of the high-density polyethylene film.
[0053] The density of the first high-density polyethylene resin may be higher than the density of the second high-density polyethylene resin. The density of the first high-density polyethylene resin may be, for example, 0.945 - 0.970 g / cm 3 or 0.945 - 0.965 g / cm 3 . When the density of the first high-density polyethylene resin falls within the above range, the final high-density polyethylene film has excellent thermal stability, low thermal shrinkage rate, and the modulus can be improved.
[0054] In the first high-density polyethylene resin, based on the integral value of the total area of the total molecular weight distribution graph of the first high-density polyethylene resin, the integral value ratio of the graph area corresponding to the polymer with a molecular weight of 10 5 -10 6 g / mol may be 18 - 28%, and the number of short-chain branches of the polymer may be 5 - 15 per thousand carbons. For example, in the first high-density polyethylene resin, based on the integral value of the total area of the total molecular weight distribution graph of the first high-density polyethylene resin, the integral value ratio of the graph area corresponding to the polymer with a molecular weight of 10 5 -10 6 g / mol may be 20 - 23%, and the number of short-chain branches of the polymer may be 6 - 12 per thousand carbons. When the ratio of the polymer with a molecular weight of 10 5 -10 6 g / mol and the number of short-chain branches fall within the above ranges, the film can be stably biaxially stretched sequentially in the longitudinal and transverse directions, and the final physical properties of the film can be significantly improved. In the present invention, the molecular weight distribution graph can be measured by infrared gel permeation chromatography.
[0055] In the first high-density polyethylene resin, based on the integral value of the total area of the molecular weight distribution graph of the first high-density polyethylene resin, the integral value ratio of the graph area corresponding to the polymer with a molecular weight of 10 3 -10 4 g / mol can be 20-30%, and the number of short side chains of the polymer can be 1-8 per thousand carbons. For example, in the first high-density polyethylene resin, based on the integral value of the total area of the molecular weight distribution graph of the first high-density polyethylene resin, the integral value ratio of the graph area corresponding to the polymer with a molecular weight of 10 3 -10 4 g / mol can be 22-26%, and the number of short side chains of the polymer can be 1.5-6 per thousand carbons. When the molecular weight is 10 3 -10 4 g / mol and the number of short side chains of the polymer fall within the above ranges, the longitudinal and transverse stretching ratios can be increased, and the thickness uniformity of the film can be ensured.
[0056] The first high-density polyethylene may have short side chains, and the short side chains may have a BOCD (broad orthogonal comonomer distribution) structure. The BOCD structure contains a large amount of monomers, has a broad molecular weight distribution, and the short side chains increase with the increase in molecular weight. When the molecular weight and the number of short side chains of the polymer used to form the first high-density polyethylene resin fall within the above ranges and the short side chains have a BOCD profile, when the polyethylene film prepared from the first high-density polyethylene resin is successively biaxially stretched by a tenter frame process, the film can be stably biaxially stretched successively in the longitudinal and transverse directions to ensure a uniform thickness, increase the stretching ratio, and significantly improve the mechanical strength, especially the modulus, of the stretched film.
[0057] Based on the results of crystallization analysis fractionation of the polymer solution of the first high-density polyethylene resin dissolved in a solvent, compared with the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution at a temperature of 100 °C, the reduction ratio of the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution at a temperature of 70-80 °C can be 10-20%, 12-18%, or 14-17%. Within the above ranges, during the successive biaxial stretching of the final high-density polyethylene film using a tenter frame process, the stretching in the longitudinal and transverse directions can be increased, and the modulus can be improved. In crystallization analysis fractionation, as the temperature decreases, the polymer is eluted from the polymer solution, thereby reducing the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution. Therefore, the reduction ratio of the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution can represent the fraction in which the polymer is eluted.
[0058] In the present invention, with respect to measuring the reduction ratio of the polymer concentration from the results of crystallization analysis fractionation, the polymer refers to the first high-density polyethylene resin or the second high-density polyethylene resin dissolved in a solvent. The physical properties of polyethylene are greatly affected not only by the content of the comonomer, but also by the distribution of the comonomer in the polyethylene main chain. Here, crystallization analysis fractionation is a method for measuring the comonomer distribution between polyethylene molecules.
[0059] Based on the results of crystallization analysis fractionation of a polymer solution of the first high-density polyethylene resin dissolved in a solvent, compared with the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution at a temperature of 100 °C, the reduction ratio of the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution at a temperature of 80 - 90 °C is 50 - 70%, 55 - 68%, or 60 - 65%. Within the above ranges, during the sequential biaxial stretching of the final high-density polyethylene film using a tenter frame process, the stretching in the longitudinal and transverse directions can be increased, and the modulus can be improved.
[0060] The melt index (MI2 (2.16 kg load, 190 °C)) of the first high-density polyethylene resin can be 0.40 - 3.0 g / 10 min or 0.45 - 1.5 g / 10 min. When the melt index of the first high-density polyethylene resin falls within the above ranges, excellent extrusion processing performance can be obtained and the deterioration of physical properties due to low molecular weight can be prevented.
[0061] The melt flow rate ratio (MI21.6 (21.6 kg load, 190 °C) / MI2 (2.16 kg load, 190 °C), MFRR) of the first high-density polyethylene resin can be 70 or more, 80 or more, or 80 - 90. When the melt flow rate ratio of the first high-density polyethylene resin falls within the above ranges, excellent final extrusion processing performance can be obtained, the film can be stably biaxially stretched in the longitudinal (MD) and transverse (TD) directions, and the film can be stretched to a uniform thickness.
[0062] The melting temperature Tm of the first high-density polyethylene resin can be 120 - 145 °C, 125 - 144 °C, or 128 - 135 °C. When the melting temperature of the first high-density polyethylene resin falls within this range, excellent heat resistance and high modulus can be imparted to the final high-density polyethylene film.
[0063] The crystallization temperature Tc of the first high-density polyethylene resin can be 105 - 130 °C, 110 - 130 °C, or 115 - 125 °C. When the crystallization temperature of the first high-density polyethylene resin falls within this range, the temperature range in which the final high-density polyethylene film can be stretched can be broadened.
[0064] The first high-density polyethylene resin can be obtained by polymerizing ethylene monomers, comonomers, and hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst. The first high-density polyethylene resin can be formed by polymerization using a two-stage reactor including a first reactor and a second reactor connected to each other. Specifically, ethylene monomers are polymerized in the first reactor to form a polyethylene resin as a primary intermediate polymer, and the polyethylene resin is transferred to the second reactor and then further polymerized therein to obtain the first high-density polyethylene resin as the final polymer. The first reactor and the second reactor can be based on a slurry process.
[0065] The polymerization in the first reactor and the second reactor can be carried out in the presence of a Ziegler-Natta (Zn) catalyst. The Ziegler-Natta (Zn) catalyst is a well-known conventional Ziegler-Natta catalyst, and a compound of a transition metal belonging to Group IV, V, or VI of the periodic table is used as the main catalyst. The most commonly used Ziegler-Natta (Zn) catalyst is a halogenated complex containing magnesium and titanium, or magnesium and vanadium.
[0066] In addition, during the polymerization in one or more of the first reactor and the second reactor, in addition to ethylene monomers, comonomers can be fed thereto. The comonomer can be an α-olefin of C3-C20, such as an α-olefin of C4-C8, or C6-C8. As a specific example, the comonomer can include at least one of 1-butene, 1-hexene, or 1-octene.
[0067] In the first reactor, the ratio of ethylene monomers to comonomers can be 50-90 g / kg, 60-80 g / kg, or 65-80 g / kg. When the comonomer is fed to the first reactor at a feed ratio within this range, clogging and fouling of the reactor can be prevented, the draw ratio in the machine direction (MD) and the transverse direction (TD) during the biaxial stretching process of the final film can be increased, and a polymer polyethylene film with high mechanical strength can be obtained.
[0068] In the first reactor, the ratio of ethylene monomers to hydrogen can be 20-70 mg / kg, 25-55 mg / kg, or 35-50 mg / kg. When hydrogen is fed to the first reactor at a feed ratio within this range, clogging and fouling of the reactor can be prevented, the draw ratio in the machine direction (MD) and the transverse direction (TD) during the biaxial stretching process of the final film can be increased, and a polymer polyethylene film with high mechanical strength can be obtained.
[0069] The comonomer can not be fed into the second reactor. Since the comonomer is not fed into the second reactor, excellent production stability can be obtained.
[0070] In the second reactor, the ratio of ethylene monomer to hydrogen can be 0.1 - 2 g / kg, 0.1 - 1.5 g / kg, or 0.5 - 0.8 g / kg. When hydrogen is fed to the second reactor at a feed ratio within this range, clogging and fouling of the reactor can be prevented, the draw ratios in the machine direction (MD) and the transverse direction (TD) during the biaxial stretching process of the final film can be increased, and a polymer polyethylene film with high mechanical strength can be obtained.
[0071] In one embodiment, the second high-density polyethylene resin can be used alone as the resin for forming the first and second surface layers of the high-density polyethylene film.
[0072] The second high-density polyethylene resin for forming the first and second surface layers can be prepared by mixing the prepared first high-density polyethylene with 5 - 25 wt% or 10 - 15 wt% of a commercially available polyolefin elastomer (POE).
[0073] The results of the fractional crystallization analysis of the polymer solution of the second high-density polyethylene resin dissolved in a solvent show that, compared with the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution at a temperature of 100 °C, the reduction ratio of the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution at a temperature higher than 30 °C and not higher than 50 °C can be 10 - 20%, 12 - 18%, or 15 - 17%. When the reduction ratio of the concentration of the second high-density polyethylene resin falls within this range, the biaxial stretching of the final film using the tenter frame process increases the draw ratios in the machine direction (MD) and the transverse direction (TD), and imparts excellent transparency, thus imparting low haze and high clarity to the final film.
[0074] The results of the fractional crystallization analysis of the polymer solution of the second high-density polyethylene resin dissolved in a solvent show that, compared with the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution at a temperature of 100 °C, the reduction ratio of the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution at a temperature higher than 30 °C and not higher than 60 °C can be 15 - 25% or 18 - 25%. When the reduction ratio of the concentration of the second high-density polyethylene resin falls within this range, the biaxial stretching of the final film using the tenter frame process increases the draw ratios in the machine direction (MD) and the transverse direction (TD), and imparts excellent transparency, thus imparting low haze and high clarity to the final film.
[0075] The results of the fractional crystallization analysis of the polymer solution of the second high-density polyethylene resin dissolved in the solvent show that, compared with the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution at a temperature of 100 °C, the reduction ratio of the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution at a temperature of 80 - 90 °C can be 30 - 75%, 40 - 70%, or 50 - 60%. When the reduction ratio of the concentration of the second high-density polyethylene resin falls within this range, the biaxial stretching of the final film using the tenter frame process increases the stretching rate in the machine direction (MD) and the transverse direction (TD), and imparts excellent transparency, thus imparting low haze and high clarity to the final film.
[0076] In the second high-density polyethylene resin, based on the integral value of the total area of the total molecular weight distribution diagram of the second high-density polyethylene resin, the integral value ratio of the graphic area corresponding to the polymer with a molecular weight of 10 3 - 10 4 g / mol can be 18 - 30%, and the number of short side chains of the polymer can be 0.1 - 8 per thousand carbons.
[0077] For example, in the second high-density polyethylene resin, based on the integral value of the total area of the total molecular weight distribution diagram of the second high-density polyethylene resin, the molecular weight is 10 3 - 10 4 g / mol, the integral value ratio of the graphic area corresponding to the polymer can be 20 - 25%, and the number of short side chains of the polymer can be 0.5 - 5 per thousand carbons. When the molecular weight is 10 3 - 10 4 g / mol, the ratio of the polymer and the number of short side chains fall within the above ranges, the stretching ratio in the longitudinal and transverse directions can be increased, and the thickness uniformity of the film can be ensured.
[0078] In the second high-density polyethylene resin, based on the integral value of the total area of the total molecular weight distribution diagram of the second high-density polyethylene resin, the molecular weight is 10 5 - 10 6 g / mol, the integral value ratio of the graphic area corresponding to the polymer can be 20 - 26%, and the number of short side chains of the polymer can be 1 - 12 per thousand carbons.
[0079] For example, in the second high-density polyethylene resin, based on the integral value of the total area of the total molecular weight distribution diagram of the second high-density polyethylene resin, the molecular weight is 10 5 - 10 6 g / mol, the integral value ratio of the graphic area corresponding to the polymer can be 21 - 24%, and the number of short side chains of the polymer can be 1.5 - 10 per thousand carbons. When the molecular weight is 10 5 - 106 When the proportion of the polymer in g / mol and the number of short chain branches fall within the above ranges, the film can be stably biaxially stretched successively in the longitudinal and transverse directions, and the final physical properties of the film can be significantly improved.
[0080] The density of the second high-density polyethylene resin can be lower than that of the first high-density polyethylene resin. The density of the second high-density polyethylene resin can be, for example, 0.940 - 0.965 g / cm 3 or 0.942 - 0.960 g / cm 3 . When the density of the second high-density polyethylene resin falls within this range, the transparency of the final high-density polyethylene film can be improved.
[0081] The melt index of the second high-density polyethylene resin (MI2 (2.16 kg load, 190 °C)) can be 0.50 - 5.0 g / 10 min or 1.0 - 3.0 g / 10 min. When the melt index of the second high-density polyethylene resin falls within the above range, the extrusion processability is excellent, the roughness of the film surface can be reduced, and the transparency of the film can be improved.
[0082] The melt flow rate ratio of the second high-density polyethylene resin (MI21.6 (21.6 kg load, 190 °C) / MI2 (2.16 kg load, 190 °C), MFRR) can be 60 or more, 70 or more, or 70 - 80. When the melt flow rate ratio of the second high-density polyethylene resin falls within the above range, the final extrusion processability is excellent, the film can be stably biaxially stretched in the longitudinal direction (MD) and the transverse direction (TD), and the film can be stretched to a uniform thickness.
[0083] According to one embodiment of the high-density polyethylene resin, that is, each of the first high-density polyethylene resin and the second high-density polyethylene, can be mixed with additives including antioxidants, neutralizers, or combinations thereof to form a composition.
[0084] Based on 100 parts by weight of the high-density polyethylene resin, the amount of the additive can be 0.005 - 0.5 parts by weight.
[0085] The antioxidant may include at least one selected from the group consisting of phenolic compounds and phosphorus-based compounds. The phenolic compounds include pentaerythritol tetra(3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate), octadecyl (3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate), tris(3,4-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl) isocyanate, triethylene glycol-bis(3-(tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)propionate), etc., and the phosphorus-based compounds include tris(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl) phosphite, tetra(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl)-4,4'-biphenyldiphosphite, distearyl pentaerythritol diphosphite, 2,4-dinonylphenyl bis(4-monononylphenyl) phosphite, etc.
[0086] Based on 100 parts by weight of the high-density polyethylene resin, the amount of the antioxidant may be 0.01 - 0.5 parts by weight, for example, 0.1 - 0.3 parts by weight. When the amount of the antioxidant is within the above range, excellent processing performance can be obtained without causing discoloration or viscosity change.
[0087] The neutralizer may include calcium stearate, zinc stearate, magnesium aluminum hydroxycarbonate, zinc oxide, magnesium hydroxystearate, etc.
[0088] Based on 100 parts by weight of the high-density polyethylene resin, the amount of the neutralizer may be 0.005 - 0.3 parts by weight, for example, 0.02 - 0.1 parts by weight. When the amount of the neutralizer is within the above range, excellent processing performance can be obtained without causing discoloration or viscosity change.
[0089] According to one embodiment, a flexible packaging film containing the high-density polyethylene film is provided.
[0090] Recently, regulations on recycling have been continuously strengthened worldwide. Along with the change in the social responsibility awareness of inherent sustainability and the solutions to a wide range of environmental problems, companies are also making efforts to design flexible packaging materials that are easy to collect, classify, and recycle.
[0091] The most effective way to easily collect, classify, and recycle flexible packaging materials is to use packaging materials produced from a single material, rather than conventional packaging produced from a mixture of multiple materials.
[0092] For this purpose, biaxially oriented polyethylene (BOPE) film is required. Generally, when using the tenter frame process as the process for preparing the biaxially oriented polyethylene film and stretching the film in the machine direction (MD) and the transverse direction (TD), the polyethylene chains and crystal structures are highly oriented, thereby improving the mechanical strength, especially the impact strength, and significantly improving the optical properties such as transparency and the film appearance.
[0093] However, during film processing, the tentering machine process is greatly affected by the molecular structure of the raw material, and the stretching process conditions are very strict. Generally, polyethylene (PE) has a narrow stretching temperature range and a very low stretching rate due to its high crystallization rate and excellent crystallinity, and the polyethylene film will break when wrinkling during the stretching process, or has uneven thickness during the stretching process. In particular, the BOPE film produced from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) exhibits high heat resistance and significantly improved modulus, but is difficult to stretch and has a problem of reduced transparency compared to the BOPE film produced from linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE).
[0094] Therefore, there is a need for a high-density polyethylene film applicable to recyclable single-material flexible packaging films, which has excellent mechanical properties, especially high modulus and excellent transparency, and is easily biaxially stretchable by the tentering machine process.
[0095] Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described. These embodiments are only used to illustrate or elaborate the present invention in detail and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. In addition, other details that can be fully conceived by those skilled in the art technically will not be described.

The physical properties of the second high-density polyethylene resin compositions of Preparation Examples 2-1 and 2-2 and Comparative Preparation Example 1-3 were evaluated, and the results are shown in Table 6 below. The evaluation methods are as follows.
[0128] Density
[0129] Measurement was carried out according to ASTM D1505.
[0130] Melt Index (MI)
[0131] The melt index (MI2) was measured according to ASTM D1238 at 190 °C under a load of 2.16 kg.
[0132] The melt index (MI21.6) was measured according to ASTM D1238 at 190 °C under a load of 21.6 kg.
[0133] Melt Flow Rate Ratio (MFRR)
[0134] The melt flow rate ratio (MFRR) refers to the ratio of the melt index (MI21.6) measured according to ASTM D1238 at 190 °C under a load of 21.6 kg to the melt index (MI2) measured according to ASTM D1238 at 190 °C under a load of 2.16 kg.
[0135] Melting Temperature (Tm) and Crystallization Temperature (Tc)
[0136] Determination is carried out using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) at a heating rate of 10 °C / min according to ASTM D 3418.
[0137] Infrared Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC-IR)
[0138] Using the equipment of Polymer Char. Add 12 mg of the sample to 8 mL of 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (containing 125 ppm BHT) and dissolve at 160 °C for 2 hours. The eluent used is 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (containing 125 ppm BHT), and the columns used are one PLgel Olexis Guard and three PLgel Olexis. Analyze 200 μL. Use polystyrene standard materials for column calibration in molecular weight calculation, and calculate the molecular weight of polyethylene using the Mark-Houwink constants (K = 44.6, a = 0.725).
[0139] The number of short chain branches (SCB) in the sample refers to the number of short chain branches present per thousand carbons and is calibrated using a known standard (1-octene copolymer of Polymer Char). The number of short chain branches (SCB) refers to the average value of the number of methyl groups (-CH 3 ) present per thousand carbons in the sample excluding the methyl groups at the chain ends, and is the value calculated by end-chain correction from the number of methyl groups (CH 3 / 1000TC) present per thousand carbons in the sample. The end-chain correction is determined by Equation 1 below.
[0140] [Equation 1]
[0141] The number of chain ends per thousand carbons (number of chain ends / 1000TC) = (A × 14000) / M
[0142] where A represents the number of end groups. For example, for linear polyethylene (linear PE), A is 2, and for long chain branch (LCB) polymers, A is greater than 2. In addition, M refers to the given molecular weight.
[0143] When the chain end groups are capped with vinyl (-CH=CH 2 ), a value of 0 is used for end-chain correction.
[0144] The followingFigure 3 is a graph showing the total molecular weight distribution and the number of short chain branches per thousand carbons of the first high density polyethylene resins of Preparation Example 1-1 and Preparation Example 1-2 measured by infrared gel permeation chromatography (GPC-IR). As can be seen from Figure 3 in the total molecular weight distribution graph of the first high density polyethylene, the integral values in the regions where logM is 3-4 and 5-6 respectively correspond to the proportion of polymers with a molecular weight (M) of 10 5 -10 6 g / mol and the proportion of polymers with a molecular weight (M) of 10 3 -10 4 g / mol in the high density polyethylene resin according to one embodiment.
[0145] Based on this, the proportion of polymers with a molecular weight of 10 5 -10 6 g / mol (10 5 -10 6 ), the proportion of polymers with a molecular weight of 10 3 -10 4 g / mol (10 3 -10 4 ), the number of short chain branches of polymers with a molecular weight of 10 5 -10 6 g / mol (10 5 to -10 6 ) and the number of short chain branches of polymers with a molecular weight of 10 3 -10 4 g / mol (10 3 -10 4 ) were measured.
[0146] Crystallization Analysis Fractionation (CRYSTAF)
[0147] Measurement was carried out using the CRYSTAF device of Polymer Char. 20 mg of the sample was dissolved in 20 mL of 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene at 160 °C for 60 minutes with stirring to prepare a polymer solution. The polymer solution was injected into the device and stabilized at 100 °C for 45 minutes, and then the temperature was lowered to 35 °C at a constant rate of 0.2 °C / min. At this time, the formed crystals were filtered through a filter, and the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the solution was measured. The cumulative curve shows the ratio (%) of the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution as the temperature decreases with respect to the concentration at the initial set temperature of 100 °C (which is 100%). Based on the cumulative curve, the ratio (%) of the decrease in the concentration of the polymer dissolved in the polymer solution at each temperature was measured. The crystallization analysis fractionation diagrams of the first high density polyethylene resins of Preparation Example 1-1 and 1-2 are as Figure 4As shown, the crystallization analysis fractionation diagrams of the second high-density polyethylene resins according to Preparation Examples 2-1 and 2-2 are as Figure 5 shown.

[0162]
[0163]
[0164] As can be seen from Table 7, the biaxially stretched films of Examples 1-4 of the present invention using a film including an intermediate layer (B) formed of a composition containing a first high-density polyethylene resin and a film including a first surface layer (A1) and a second surface layer (A2) formed of a composition containing a second high-density polyethylene resin have excellent properties, namely, a high modulus, especially an MD modulus of 1300 MPa or more, a haze of less than 6%, a clarity of 97% or more, and high thickness uniformity.
[0165] On the other hand, the haze or modulus of Comparative Examples 1-4 in which the intermediate layer, the first surface layer, and the second surface layer all use the first high-density polyethylene resin or the second high-density polyethylene resin are low. In addition, Comparative Examples 5-7 in which the intermediate layer uses the first high-density polyethylene resin according to the present invention, but the first surface layer and the second surface layer do not use the second high-density polyethylene resin according to the present invention have low haze and modulus.

In addition, the high-density polyethylene film according to the present invention can be applied to a flexible packaging film formed of a single and recyclable material.
