Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of composite films, and specifically, to a three-layer co-extruded biaxially oriented film and a preparation process thereof. Background Art
[0002] The biaxially oriented polyethylene film is abbreviated as B0PE film, which is obtained by stretching polyethylene synchronously or asynchronously in the longitudinal and transverse directions. After stretching, the molecular chains and lamellae of polyethylene are highly oriented in two directions, and the optical and mechanical properties of the film are greatly improved. Moreover, the B0PE film can be recycled, which is beneficial to environmental protection and the development of circular economy. At present, most of the raw materials for BOPE production are LLDPE. LLDPE can be well processed into films with good transparency and low haze, but it has poor heat resistance, low stiffness, and obvious thermal shrinkage, which will cause problems such as inaccurate printing registration in downstream use, restricting the application of BOPE in downstream. Compared with LLDPE, the HDPE film has high stiffness and low thermal shrinkage rate, which can ensure the stability of the film during printing and bag making. However, the HDPE stretched film has problems such as poor toughness and light transmittance, high haze value, and difficulty in processing. Summary of the Invention

[0030] Specific embodiments of the present disclosure will be described hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings; however, it should be understood that the embodiments claimed are merely examples of the present disclosure and can be implemented in various ways. Well-known and / or repetitive functions and structures are not described in detail to avoid obscuring the present disclosure with unnecessary or redundant details. Therefore, the specific structural and functional details claimed herein are not intended to be limiting, but are merely used as a basis and representative basis for the claims to teach those skilled in the art to combine substantially arbitrarily.
[0031] The first embodiment of the present disclosure provides a three-layer coextruded biaxially oriented film, which adopts a multi-layer coextrusion structure and includes a film body. The thickness of the film body is 25-35 μm. The film body includes an upper surface layer 1, a core layer 2, and a lower surface layer 3. Among them, the thicknesses of the upper surface layer 1 and the lower surface layer 3 are 7-10 μm. Here, the thickness of the lower surface layer 3 can be greater than that of the upper surface layer 1, and the thickness of the core layer 2 is 10-15 μm.
[0032] Specifically, the upper surface layer 1 and the lower surface layer 3 are anti-blocking layers. The upper surface layer 1 and the lower surface layer 3 include the following components in parts by weight: 80-98.5 parts of high-density polyethylene, 1-10 parts of anti-blocking masterbatch, and 0.5-10 parts of PPA additive; among them, the melt index of the high-density polyethylene is 0.5-3 g / 10 min (190 °C, 2.16 Kg). Here, the component ratios of the upper surface layer 1 and the lower surface layer 3 can be different.
[0033] Further, the anti-blocking masterbatch includes siloxane and isotactic polypropylene. Among them, the mass of siloxane accounts for 20-30% of the total mass of the anti-blocking masterbatch. The siloxane can be in the form of organic particles, and the particle size of the siloxane particles is 1-2 μm.
[0034] Further, the core layer 2 includes the following components in parts by weight: 80-98.5 parts of high-density polyethylene, 1-10 parts of antistatic masterbatch, and 0.5-10 parts of PPA additive, where the melt index of the high-density polyethylene is 0.5-3 g / 10 min (190 °C, 2.16 Kg).
[0035] Here, by adding different proportions of PPA additive to the upper surface layer 1, the core layer 2, and the lower surface layer 3, the surface defects of the film can be improved, the wear of the mold during the processing can be reduced, the phenomenon of die build-up can be eliminated, and the processing temperature can be lowered. Specifically, after adding the PPA additive, the fluidity of the melt is improved, so that the processing temperature is somewhat reduced. At the same time, the temperature of the chill roll is lowered to about 70 °C - 75 °C, so that the thick sheet is rapidly cooled, the cooling rate is increased, and finally fine and small-sized crystals are formed. After transverse and longitudinal stretching to increase the draw ratio, a three-layer coextruded biaxially oriented film with a lower haze value and better light transmittance can be obtained.
[0036] Further, the antistatic masterbatch comprises 75 to 85 parts by weight of isotactic polypropylene homopolymer and 15 to 25 parts by weight of a migrating antistatic agent. The migrating antistatic agent herein comprises 50 to 60 parts by weight of polypropylene, 20 to 25 parts by weight of ethoxyamine, and 20 to 25 parts by weight of glycerol monostearate.
[0037] In a specific embodiment (PPA-3 added in the table), the main components of the upper surface layer 1 include 85 parts of high-density polyethylene, 8 parts of antiblocking masterbatch, and 7 parts of PPA additive. Among them, the antiblocking masterbatch comprises siloxane and isotactic polypropylene, and the mass of the siloxane accounts for 30% of the total mass of the antiblocking masterbatch; the main components of the lower surface layer 3 include 85 parts of high-density polyethylene, 8 parts of antiblocking masterbatch, and 7 parts of PPA additive. The antiblocking masterbatch comprises siloxane and isotactic polypropylene, and the mass of the siloxane accounts for 20% of the total mass of the antiblocking masterbatch.
[0038] The core layer 2 specifically comprises 90 parts of high-density polyethylene, 2 parts of antistatic masterbatch, and 8 parts of PPA additive. Among them, the antistatic masterbatch comprises 80 parts by weight of isotactic polypropylene homopolymer and 20 parts by weight of a migrating antistatic agent. The components of the migrating antistatic agent include 56 parts by weight of polypropylene, 22 parts by weight of ethoxyamine, and 22 parts by weight of glycerol monostearate.
[0039] In another specific embodiment (PPA-2 added in the table), the main components of the upper surface layer 1 include 90 parts of high-density polyethylene, 5 parts of antiblocking masterbatch, and 5 parts of PPA additive. The main components of the lower surface layer 3 include 90 parts of high-density polyethylene, 5 parts of antiblocking masterbatch, and 5 parts of PPA additive; the core layer 2 specifically comprises 90 parts of high-density polyethylene, 5 parts of antistatic masterbatch, and 5 parts of PPA additive.
[0040] In another specific embodiment (PPA-1 added in the table), the main components of the upper surface layer 1 include 95 parts of high-density polyethylene, 2 parts of antiblocking masterbatch, and 3 parts of PPA additive. The main components of the lower surface layer 3 include 95 parts of high-density polyethylene, 3 parts of antiblocking masterbatch, and 2 parts of PPA additive; the core layer 2 specifically comprises 92 parts of high-density polyethylene, 5 parts of antistatic masterbatch, and 3 parts of PPA additive.
[0041] The effects of adding PPA-1, PPA-2, and PPA-3 are as shown in the following table:
[0042]
[0043] As can be seen from the above table, adding the PPA additive improves the fluidity of the melt, reduces the processing temperature, and increases the draw ratio through transverse and longitudinal stretching, enabling the production of a three-layer coextruded biaxially stretched film with a low haze value and good light transmittance.
[0044] The embodiments of the present disclosure can increase the draw ratio of the biaxially stretched polyethylene film, while reducing the haze value and having good light transmittance.
