[0007] According to the present invention, a packaging body having carbon black with a low bulk density as the contents thereof, which can store the carbon black while maintaining a low water content, on which product information can be easily printed, and from which the printing can be easily discerned is provided. Additionally, according to the present invention, a production method for a packaging body that can easily produce the above-mentioned packaging body is provided.DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0008] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be explained in detail.

[0009] The packaging body of the present embodiment is provided with an inner bag having air permeability, an outer bag covering the inner bag, and contents accommodated in the inner bag. In the present embodiment, the outer bag has a water vapor transmission rate of 1 g / (m 2< ·day) or less, an oxygen transmission rate of 1 cc / (m 2< ·day·atom) or less, and a visible light transmission rate of 50% or more. Additionally, in the present embodiment, the contents are carbon black having a bulk density of 0.3 g / cm 3< or less.

[0010] In the packaging body of the present embodiment, the inner bag has air permeability. Therefore, the contents can be accommodated in the inner bag by being air-blown. With supply methods using auger screws, etc., carbon black with a low bulk density tends to scatter and is therefore difficult to handle, requiring time to fill an inner bag. Meanwhile, by means of air-blowing, carbon black with a low bulk density can easily be made to fill an inner bag in a short time. For this reason, the packaging body in the present embodiment has the advantage of being easy to produce while having carbon black with a low bulk density as the contents thereof.

[0011] Additionally, in the packaging body of the present embodiment, the water vapor transmission rate and the oxygen transmission rate of the outer bag are extremely low. Therefore, even if the inner bag has air permeability, the outer bag can block infiltration by moisture and oxygen, and the water content of the carbon black constituting the contents can be kept low.

[0012] Furthermore, in the packaging body of the present embodiment, the visible light transmission rate of the outer bag is high. Therefore, product information, etc. printed on the inner bag can be easily seen and discerned without removing the inner bag from the outer bag. Additionally, since damage, etc. to the inner bag can be easily seen, unintended scattering, etc. of the contents can be avoided when opening the outer bag, and the packaging body is exceptionally easy to handle.(Contents)

[0013] In the packaging body of the present embodiment, the contents are carbon black having a low bulk density.

[0014] The bulk density of the carbon black is 0.3 g / cm 3< or less, and may be 0.25 g / cm 3< or less, 0.2 g / cm 3< or less, or 0.15 g / cm 3< or less. Additionally, the bulk density of the carbon black may be, for example, 0.01 g / cm 3< or more, 0.03 g / cm 3< or more, 0.05 g / cm 3< or more, or 0.07 g / cm 3< or more. That is, the bulk density of the carbon black may be, for example, 0.01 g / cm 3< or more and 0.3 g / cm 3< or less, 0.01 g / cm 3< or more and 0.25 g / cm 3< or less, 0.01 g / cm 3< or more and 0.2 g / cm 3< or less, 0.01 g / cm 3< or more and 0.15 g / cm 3< or less, 0.03 g / cm 3< or more and 0.3 g / cm 3< or less, 0.03 g / cm 3< or more and 0.25 g / cm 3< or less, 0.03 g / cm 3< or more and 0.2 g / cm 3< or less, 0.03 g / cm 3< or more and 0.15 g / cm 3< or less, 0.05 g / cm 3< or more and 0.3 g / cm 3< or less, 0.05 g / cm 3< or more and 0.25 g / cm 3< or less, 0.05 g / cm 3< or more and 0.2 g / cm 3< or less, 0.05 g / cm 3< or more and 0.15 g / cm 3< or less, 0.07 g / cm 3< or more and 0.3 g / cm 3< or less, 0.07 g / cm 3< or more and 0.25 g / cm 3< or less, 0.07 g / cm 3< or more and 0.2 g / cm 3< or less, or 0.07 g / cm 3< or more and 0.15 g / cm 3< or less.

Additionally, the thickness of the third resin layer may be, for example, 50 µm or less, 40 µm or less, 30 µm or less, or 20 µm or less. That is, the thickness of the third resin layer may be, for example, 1 µm or more and 50 µm or less, 1 µm or more and 40 µm or less, 1 µm or more and 30 µm or less, 1 µm or more and 20 µm or less, 3 µm or more and 50 µm or less, 3 µm or more and 40 µm or less, 3 µm or more and 30 µm or less, 3 µm or more and 20 µm or less, 5 µm or more and 50 µm or less, 5 µm or more and 40 µm or less, 5 µm or more and 30 µm or less, 5 µm or more and 20 µm or less, 7 µm or more and 50 µm or less, 7 µm or more and 40 µm or less, 7 µm or more and 30 µm or less, 7 µm or more and 20 µm or less, 10 µm or more and 50 µm or less, 10 µm or more and 40 µm or less, 10 µm or more and 30 µm or less, or 10 µm or more and 20 µm or less.

[0048] The coefficient of static friction between outer surfaces of the outer bag may be, for example, 0.15 or more, 0.2 or more, 0.25 or more, or 0.3 or more. As a result thereof, the packaging bodies will tend not to slip with respect to each other, so that multiple packaging bodies can be easily stacked and stored. Additionally, the coefficient of static friction between outer surfaces of the outer bag may be, for example, 0.7 or less, 0.6 or less, 0.5 or less, or 0.4 or less. As a result thereof, the stacked packaging bodies can easily be moved by being slid with respect to each other, so as to be exceptionally easy to handle. That is, the coefficient of static friction between outer surfaces of the outer bag may be, for example, 0.15 or more and 0.7 or less, 0.15 or more and 0.6 or less, 0.15 or more and 0.5 or less, 0.15 or more and 0.4 or less, 0.2 or more and 0.7 or less, 0.2 or more and 0.6 or less, 0.2 or more and 0.5 or less, 0.2 or more and 0.4 or less, 0.25 or more and 0.7 or less, 0.25 or more and 0.6 or less, 0.25 or more and 0.5 or less, 0.25 or more and 0.4 or less, 0.3 or more and 0.7 or less, 0.3 or more and 0.6 or less, 0.3 or more and 0.5 or less, or 0.3 or more and 0.4 or less.

[0049] The outer surface of the outer bag may be, for example, a first resin layer or a third resin layer, and is preferably a third resin layer. Due to the third resin layer constituting the outer surface, outside air can be prevented from infiltration due to damage to the first resin layer. Additionally, due to the third resin layer constituting the outer surface, the coefficient of static friction mentioned above can be easily adjusted to be in a preferable range.

[0050] In the packaging body of the present embodiment, the inside of the outer bag may be deaerated. By deaerating the inside of the outer bag, the outer bag adheres to the inner bag, and the ease of handling increases.

[0051] The packaging body of the present embodiment may be produced, for example, by the production method below.(Packaging body production method)

[0052] The production method of the present embodiment includes an accommodation step of air-blowing contents into an inner bag and accommodating the contents in the inner bag, a covering step of covering, with an outer bag, the inner bag accommodating the contents, and a deaeration step of deaerating the inside of the outer bag.

[0053] The air-blowing method and conditions in the accommodation step are not particularly limited, and for example, the air-blowing may be performed under known conditions using a known air-blowing apparatus.

[0054] In the covering step, the inner bag may be covered by the outer bag after closing the opening for blowing air that the inner bag has, so that the contents are not scattered from the opening for blowing air.

[0055] The method and conditions for deaeration in the deaeration step are not particularly limited, and for example, the deaeration can be performed by a method such as nozzle-type deaeration packaging. The pressure at the time of deaeration may be, for example, -10 kPa or less, -20 kPa or less, or -25 kPa or less. The lower limit of the pressure at the time of deaeration is not particularly limited. The pressure at the time of deaeration may be, for example, -70 kPa or more. That is, the pressure at the time of deaeration may be, for example, -70 kPa or more and -10 kPa or less, -70 kPa or more and -20 kPa or less, or -70 kPa or more and -25 kPa or less.

[0056] After the deaeration step, the opening of the outer bag is closed and sealed. The sealing method is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, sealing by heat-sealing, etc.

[0057] While preferred embodiments of the present invention have been explained above, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments above.EXAMPLES

[0058] Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in further detail by means of examples. However, the present invention is not limited to these examples.

[0063] (Outer side) Resin layer (A) (Inner side) Resin layer (A): Linear low-density polyethylene (thickness 80 µm)

[0064] Regarding Films 1-4, the water vapor transmission rates, the oxygen transmission rates, and the coefficients of static friction of the outer surfaces were determined by the methods below. The results are indicated in Table 1.<Measurement of water vapor transmission rate>

[0065] Measured in accordance with condition B (temperature 40 ± 0.5 °C, relative humidity 90 ± 2%) in JIS Z 0208:1976.<Measurement of oxygen transmission rate>

[0066] Measured in accordance with JIS K 7126-2:2006.<Measurement of coefficient of static friction>

[0067] Two test pieces were prepared from each film by cutting out pieces with sizes of 16 cm × 6.2 cm. One of the test pieces was affixed to a 1 kg weight with the measurement surface (outer surface) on the outer side. The other test piece was affixed, with the measurement surface as the upper surface, to a frame that was horizontal with respect to the ground surface. A weight was placed on the frame so that the two test pieces came into contact. The frame was slowly tilted until the weight moved, and the inclination (θ) of the frame when the weight began to move was recorded. From the inclination (θ) of the frame, tan θ was determined and defined as the coefficient of static friction.

[0068] Moisture absorption tests were performed on Films 1-4 by the method below. The results are indicated in Table 1.<Moisture absorption test>

[0069] Each film was heat-sealed to prepare a bag having inner dimensions of 10 cm square. The bag was loaded with 10 g of dried carbon black (bulk density: 0.1 g / cm 3< ; BET specific surface area: 300 m 2< / g), and sealed by heat-sealing. The sealed bag was placed at rest for 30 days in an environmental tester at 40 °C and 90% RH. The bag was unsealed and the water content of the extracted carbon black was measured. The measured water content was compared with the water content of the carbon black measured before sealing, and the water increase rate (% by mass / day) of the carbon black was calculated.

[0070] The water content of the carbon black was measured in compliance with JIS K 1469:2003.

[0071] As the contents, carbon black (bulk density: 0.1 g / cm 3< ; BET specific surface area: 300 m 2< / g) was prepared. As the inner bag, an inner bag (width 580 mm × length 1080 mm × height 200 mmm; air permeability: 3.5 µm / (Pa·s)) made of kraft paper was prepared. As the outer bag, an outer bag made by heat-sealing Film 1 was prepared.

[0072] In the inner bag, 15 kg of carbon black were accommodated in the inner bag by air-blowing. The opening of the inner bag was folded and closed, and the inner bag was placed in the outer bag. The inside of the outer bag was deaerated at -30 kPa and the opening of the outer bag was heat-sealed to obtain a packaging body.

[0074] Additionally, a moisture absorption test was performed on the obtained packaging body by the method below. The results are indicated in Table 2.<Moisture absorption test>

[0075] The packaging body was placed at rest for 3 months in an environmental tester at 40 °C and 90% RH. The packaging body was unsealed and the water content of the extracted carbon black was measured. The measured water content was compared with the water content of the carbon black measured before sealing, and the water increase rate (% by mass / day) of the carbon black was calculated.

[0076] The water content of the carbon black was measured in compliance with JIS K 1469:2003.(Example 2)
