Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to packages, labels, lidstocks, laminated tubes and bags. [Background technology]

[0002] Plastic films are known as packaging materials used in packaging bags for containing food.

[0025] <Package> As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, the packaging body 10 includes a base layer 11, a first shielding layer 12, a light-shielding layer 13, and a sealant layer 14 laminated in this order from an outer surface 101 to an inner surface 102. The packaging body 10 may further include a picture-printed layer 15 provided between the base layer 11 and the first shielding layer 12. The packaging body 10 may further include a second shielding layer 16 provided between the base layer 11 and the first shielding layer 12. The packaging body 10 may further include a barrier layer 17 provided between the base layer 11 and the first shielding layer 12. The packaging body 10 may further include an intermediate layer 18 provided between the light-shielding layer 13 and the sealant layer 14. The outer surface 101 is the surface facing the opposite side to the contents in a label 20 to be described later. Moreover, the inner surface 102 is the surface of the label 20, etc., described below, that faces the contents.

[0026] Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the packaging body 10 comprises, in this order from the outer surface 101 to the inner surface 102, a base material layer 11, a second shielding layer 16, a first shielding layer 12, a light-shielding layer 13, a first adhesive layer 19a, a barrier layer 17, an intermediate layer 18, a second adhesive layer 19b, and a sealant layer 14.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 2, the packaging body 10 includes, in this order from the outer surface 101 to the inner surface 102, a base material layer 11, a first shielding layer 12, a light-shielding layer 13, a first adhesive layer 19a, an intermediate layer 18, a second adhesive layer 19b, and a sealant layer 14.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 3, the packaging body 10 includes, in this order from the outer surface 101 to the inner surface 102, a base material layer 11, a second shielding layer 16, a first shielding layer 12, a light-shielding layer 13, a first adhesive layer 19a, an intermediate layer 18, a second adhesive layer 19b, and a sealant layer 14.

[0029] As shown in FIG. 4, the packaging body 10 includes, in this order from the outer surface 101 to the inner surface 102, a base material layer 11, a barrier layer 17, a second shielding layer 16, a first shielding layer 12, a light-shielding layer 13, a first adhesive layer 19a, an intermediate layer 18, a second adhesive layer 19b, and a sealant layer 14.

[0030] As shown in FIG. 5, the packaging body 10 includes, in this order from the outer surface 101 to the inner surface 102, a base material layer 11, a pattern printed layer 15, a second shielding layer 16, a first adhesive layer 19a, an intermediate layer 18, a first shielding layer 12, a light-shielding layer 13, a second adhesive layer 19b, and a sealant layer 14.

[0031] As shown in FIG. 6, the packaging body 10 includes, in this order from the outer surface 101 to the inner surface 102, a base material layer 11, a pattern printed layer 15, a second shielding layer 16, a first adhesive layer 19a, a first shielding layer 12, a light-shielding layer 13, an intermediate layer 18, a second adhesive layer 19b, and a sealant layer 14.

[0032] In the packaging body 10 shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the base material layer 11 forms an outer surface 101 of the packaging body 10, and the sealant layer 14 forms an inner surface 102 of the packaging body 10.

[0033] Each layer of the package 10 will now be described.

[0034] <<Base material layer>> The base layer 11 is a layer for supporting, for example, the sealant layer 14 and the like, and for increasing the strength of the entire package 10. As the base layer 11, a resin film constituting a normal package may be appropriately used. Specifically, as the base layer 11, a film made of low-density polyethylene, medium-density polyethylene, high-density polyethylene, linear low-density polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl alcohol, polyacrylonitrile, polycarbonate, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, ionomer, ethylene-(meth)acrylic acid copolymer, ethylene-ethyl (meth)acrylate copolymer, ethylene-propylene copolymer, methylpentene, polybutene, acid-modified polyolefin resin, polyamide resin, polystyrene resin, low-crystalline saturated polyester or amorphous polyester resin, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), tetrafluoroethylene-ethylene copolymer (ETFE), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), MXD6, or the like may be used.

[0035] Among the above-mentioned resin films, polyester resins such as polyethylene terephthalate (hereinafter also referred to as "PET"), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and polybutylene naphthalate (PBN); polyamide resins such as polycaproamide (nylon 6), polyhexamethylene adipamide (nylon 66), and poly-p-xylylene adipamide (MXD6 nylon); and polyolefin resins such as polyethylene and polypropylene are preferred. In particular, PET film is preferred as the material for the base layer 11 because of its high transparency, excellent dimensional stability, and excellent heat resistance. As the material for the base layer 11, a mixture of the above-mentioned polyester resin, polyamide resin, and polyolefin resin may be used.

[0036] The base layer 11 may be made of a multilayer film in which two or more resin films are laminated. When the base layer 11 is made of a multilayer film, each layer may have the same composition or different compositions. In addition, the base layer 11 is preferably transparent or translucent.

[0037] The resin film constituting the base layer 11 may be a non-stretched film, but from the viewpoint of transparency, etc., a uniaxially stretched film or a biaxially stretched film may be preferably used. The thickness of the base layer 11 is not particularly limited, but may be about 5 μm or more and 50 μm or less, 5 μm or more and 40 μm or less, or 10 μm or more and 30 μm or less.

[0038] The surface of the base layer 11 may be subjected to a surface treatment such as a corona treatment, an ozone treatment, a frame treatment, etc. This can improve the adhesion of other layers to the base layer 11. It is preferable that such a surface treatment is performed at least on the surface of the base layer 11 on which the picture-printed layer 15 is formed.

[0039] <<First shielding layer>> The first shielding layer 12 is a layer that blocks light that passes through the base layer 11 from the outside. The first shielding layer 12 is also a layer for blocking the darkness and blackness of the light-shielding layer 13. The first shielding layer 12 contains metal particles. Metal particles have a metallic luster and reflect light better than inorganic or organic pigments. Therefore, since the first shielding layer 12 contains metal particles, the brightness of the pattern of the pattern-printed layer 15 located closer to the outer surface 101 than the first shielding layer 12 is increased, and the color of the pattern becomes a clear color without dullness. This improves the design of the package 10.

[0040] The metal particles are preferably particles of a metal material that can provide a silver metallic luster. In this case, the metal particles are more preferably aluminum particles. When the metal particles are aluminum particles, the particle shape may be spherical, and is preferably scaly. When the aluminum particles are spherical, the particle size may be, for example, about 0.1 μm or more and 3.0 μm or less. When the aluminum particles are scaly, the average thickness of the aluminum particles may be about 0.01 μm or more and 0.30 μm or less, and the length of the aluminum particles may be about 1 μm or more and 10 μm or less.

[0041] The aspect ratio of the aluminum particles (average particle diameter / average thickness) may be about 25 or more and 100 or less, or about 30 or more and 50 or less. When the aspect ratio (average particle diameter / average thickness) is 25 or more, the aluminum particles are less likely to tilt in the first shielding layer 12. Therefore, the aluminum particles are more likely to be stacked in the thickness direction in the first shielding layer 12. As a result, multiple reflections can be generated between the aluminum particles, and the shielding properties against darkness and blackness of the light-shielding layer 13 can be improved. When the aspect ratio (average particle diameter / average thickness) is 100 or less, even if the aluminum particles are tilted, adjacent aluminum particles are less likely to come into contact with each other, and the microwave oven resistance can be improved.

[0042] The first shielding layer 12 may contain the above-mentioned metal particles and a binder resin, and may be formed on the second shielding layer 16 by printing using an ink containing various additives as necessary. The metal particle content of the ink may be about 5% by mass or more and 15% by mass or less. The binder resin content of the ink may be about 5% by mass or more and 15% by mass or less. A known ink called silver ink may be used for the first shielding layer 12.

[0043] The method of printing the ink may be a known printing method, such as gravure printing, offset printing, letterpress printing, or screen printing. The thickness of the first shielding layer 12 (amount of ink applied) depends on the content of metal particles in the ink, but can be a thickness that can ensure the necessary light-shielding properties to prevent the contents from deteriorating when a label 20 or the like described below is produced. Specifically, the thickness of the first shielding layer 12 may be, for example, about 0.5 μm or more and 5.0 μm or less. When the thickness of the first shielding layer 12 is 0.5 μm or more, the shielding properties against light transmitted through the base layer 11 from the outside and the darkness and blackness of the light-shielding layer 13 can be effectively improved. In addition, when the thickness of the first shielding layer 12 is 5.0 μm or less, the adhesion of the ink is maintained, and the decrease in lamination strength between layers adjacent to the first shielding layer 12 can be suppressed.

[0044] <<Light blocking layer>> The light-shielding layer 13 is a layer that blocks light transmitted through the base layer 11 from the outside. This light-shielding layer 13 is directly laminated on the first shielding layer 12. In addition, the light-shielding layer 13 is a layer different from the first shielding layer 12. Therefore, an interface exists between the light-shielding layer 13 and the first shielding layer 12. In this way, the interface exists between the light-shielding layer 13 and the first shielding layer 12, so that the black ink (black pigment) described later of the light-shielding layer 13 and the above-mentioned metal particles of the first shielding layer 12 can be suppressed from mixing. Therefore, the light-shielding property of the light-shielding layer 13 can be suppressed from being uneven, and the light-shielding property of the light-shielding layer 13 can be improved. In addition, since the black ink described later of the light-shielding layer 13 and the above-mentioned metal particles of the first shielding layer 12 can be suppressed from mixing, the decrease in laminate strength between the layers adjacent to the light-shielding layer 13 and the first shielding layer 12 can be suppressed. Furthermore, since it is possible to prevent the black ink of the light-shielding layer 13 (described later) from mixing with the metal particles of the first shielding layer 12, it is possible to enhance the concealing effect of the light-shielding layer 13 (prevention of the pattern from sinking) without being affected by the pattern. This allows the design of the package 10 to be improved.

[0045] The light-shielding layer 13 contains a black pigment. In this case, the content of the black pigment in the light-shielding layer 13 may be 4% or more and 50% or less. When the content of the black pigment in the light-shielding layer 13 is 4% or more, it is possible to effectively block light transmitted through the base layer 11 from the outside. Furthermore, when the content of the black pigment in the light-shielding layer 13 is 50% or less, it is possible to effectively prevent the appearance of the package 10 from becoming dark when viewed from the base layer 11 side.

[0046] The light-shielding layer 13 may contain black ink containing a black pigment. The black ink may contain at least one of a black organic pigment and an inorganic pigment, and a binder resin. As the black ink, a known ink containing various additives as necessary may be used. For example, black ink may be used.

[0047] Moreover, it is preferable that the light-shielding layer 13 does not contain metal particles, white pigments, or color pigments. In this case, it is preferable that the light-shielding layer 13 is composed only of black ink containing black pigments. This can suppress unevenness in the light-shielding properties of the light-shielding layer 13, and can enhance the light-shielding properties of the light-shielding layer 13. Furthermore, since the light-shielding layer 13 does not contain metal particles, white pigments, or color pigments, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the laminate strength between layers adjacent to the light-shielding layer 13, while enhancing the concealing effect of the light-shielding layer 13 (suppression of sinking of the pattern).

[0048] The ISO whiteness of the back surface of the light-shielding layer 13 may be 7 or less. The back surface of the light-shielding layer 13 refers to the surface of the light-shielding layer 13 that faces the inner surface 102 of the package 10. By setting the ISO whiteness of the back surface of the light-shielding layer 13 to 7 or less, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the light-shielding properties. This makes it possible to reduce the risk of deterioration of the contents.

[0049] In addition, the back surface of the light-shielding layer 13 is * The value may be 1 or more and 30 or less. * The value is L * a * b * It is a value defined by a color system and can be measured using a spectrophotometer (SpectroEye, manufactured by Sakata Inx Corporation). * By keeping the value at 30 or less, the decrease in light-blocking properties can be suppressed, and therefore the risk of deterioration of the contents can be reduced.

[0050] Furthermore, the total light transmittance of the light-shielding layer 13 may be 2% or less. This can improve the light-shielding property of the package 10. The total light transmittance can be measured using a haze meter (product name "HM-150", manufactured by Murakami Color Research Laboratory Co., Ltd., measuring diameter 20 mmφ) in accordance with JIS K7361-1:1997. Specifically, first, the light-shielding layer 13 is removed from the package 10, and three square test pieces with sides of 50 mm are cut out. Then, the test pieces are placed in the haze meter so as not to cause wrinkles or the like. At this time, the test pieces are placed in the haze meter so that the surface of the light-shielding layer 13 (the surface on the outer surface 101 side of the package 10) faces the light source. Next, the test pieces are kept in an environment with a temperature of 25°C and a relative humidity of 50% for 1 minute, and then the total light transmittance of the test pieces is measured in an environment with a temperature of 25°C and a relative humidity of 50%. The total light transmittance is measured for the three test pieces, and the average value is regarded as the total light transmittance of the light-shielding layer 13 .

[0051] The thickness of such a light-shielding layer 13 may be, for example, about 0.1 μm or more and 3.0 μm or less. When the thickness of the light-shielding layer 13 is 0.1 μm or more, it is possible to effectively improve the shielding property against light transmitted from the outside through the base material layer 11, etc. Also, when the thickness of the light-shielding layer 13 is 3.0 μm or less, it is possible to suppress blocking during printing processing and suppress sinking of the pattern.

[0052] <<Sealant layer>> The sealant layer 14 is a layer for bonding the packages 10 together, and is the innermost layer when, for example, a bag 70 described later is produced from the package 10. A material that melts and fuses by heat is used as a material for forming the sealant layer 14. Polyolefin resins such as polyethylene and polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), etc. may be used as the sealant layer 14. Furthermore, a resin consisting of one or more of the above-mentioned resins may be used as the sealant layer 14. In this embodiment, the package 10 may be used as a bag 70 for retort. Therefore, when the package 10 is used as a bag 70 for retort, it is preferable to use a material with high heat resistance as the sealant layer 14 so that the adhesive strength between the sealant layers 14 does not decrease after the retort treatment. An example of a material with high heat resistance is polypropylene.

[0053] The thickness of the sealant layer 14 is not particularly limited, and may be about 30 μm or more and 100 μm or less, 80 μm or less, or 70 μm or less. The sealant layer 14 and another layer (e.g., intermediate layer 18) may be bonded by dry lamination via the second adhesive layer 19b.

[0054] <<Picture printing layer>> The picture-printed layer 15 is a layer for enhancing the design of the packaging body 10 and the label 20 described later. This picture-printed layer 15 is a layer on which a picture such as a predetermined character, figure, pattern, or color coding is formed by ink. A known ink may be used. For example, the ink may contain at least one of an organic pigment and an inorganic pigment, and a binder resin, and may further contain various additives as necessary. The picture-printed layer 15 can be formed, for example, on the base material layer 11 by a known printing method such as gravure printing, offset printing, letterpress printing, or screen printing.

[0055] In this embodiment, the picture-printed layer 15 is formed closer to the inner surface 102 than the base material layer 11. In other words, the picture-printed layer 15 does not form the outer surface 101 of the packaging body 10. This makes it possible to prevent the picture-printed layer 15 from disappearing due to friction or the like, and also effectively prevents tampering with the picture.

[0056] <<Second shielding layer>> The second shielding layer 16 is a layer for shielding the darkness or blackness of the light-shielding layer 13 and presenting a white background when the pattern of the pattern-printed layer 15 is viewed from the substrate layer 11 side. The second shielding layer 16 contains white ink. The white ink may contain at least one white pigment of an organic pigment or an inorganic pigment, and a binder resin. As the white ink, a known white ink containing various additives may be used as necessary.

[0057] The second shielding layer 16 can be formed by a known printing method, such as gravure printing, offset printing, letterpress printing, or screen printing.

[0058] The thickness of the second shielding layer 16 is preferably a thickness capable of shielding the darkness and blackness due to the color of the light-shielding layer 13, and may be, for example, about 0.1 μm or more and 5 μm or less. The thickness of the second shielding layer 16 can be adjusted when the second shielding layer 16 is printed.

[0059] <<Barrier layer>> The barrier layer 17 is a layer for suppressing the permeation of oxygen gas, water vapor, etc. By providing the packaging body 10 with the barrier layer 17, the permeation of oxygen gas, etc. can be suppressed, and weight loss and deterioration of the contents can be effectively suppressed.

[0060] The barrier layer 17 may be, for example, a vapor-deposited film of an inorganic substance or an inorganic oxide, or a layer made of a gas barrier resin such as an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, polyvinylidene chloride, polyvinyl alcohol, or MXD6, etc. The barrier layer 17 may also be formed by a combination of the above-mentioned vapor-deposited films or layers made of gas barrier resins.

[0061] In order to ensure the visibility of the contents, the barrier layer 17 is preferably transparent. In this case, a vapor deposition film of an inorganic oxide may be particularly preferably used as the barrier layer 17. The inorganic oxide forming the vapor deposition film may be an inorganic oxide that is transparent and has gas barrier properties against oxygen gas, water vapor, and the like. Examples of such inorganic oxides include oxides such as alumina (aluminum oxide), silicon oxide, magnesium oxide, calcium oxide, zirconium oxide, titanium oxide, boron oxide, hafnium oxide, and barium oxide. Among these, aluminum oxide and silicon oxide may be particularly preferably used in terms of gas barrier properties and production efficiency.

[0062] The surface of the barrier layer 17 may be subjected to a surface treatment such as corona treatment, ozone treatment, or frame treatment. This can improve the adhesion of other layers to the barrier layer 17. For example, when a picture-printed layer 15 is formed on the surface of the barrier layer 17, it is preferable that the surface treatment is performed on at least the surface of the barrier layer 17 on which the picture-printed layer 15 is formed.

[0063] <<Middle layer>> The intermediate layer 18 is made of a material having impact resistance and pinhole resistance. For example, a polyamide resin film such as a biaxially oriented nylon film may be used as the intermediate layer 18. The thickness of the intermediate layer 18 may be appropriately determined depending on the use and function of the package 10. The thickness of the intermediate layer 18 may be, for example, about 15 μm or more and 25 μm or less.

[0064] The intermediate layer 18 and another layer (eg, the sealant layer 14) may be bonded by dry lamination via the first adhesive layer 19a or the second adhesive layer 19b.

[0065] <<First adhesive layer 19a and second adhesive layer 19b>> The adhesive layers such as the first adhesive layer 19a and the second adhesive layer 19b are layers for bonding the base layer 11, the intermediate layer 18, the sealant layer 14, etc. to one another by a dry lamination method.

[0066] The adhesive constituting the adhesive layer may be one-component or two-component cured or non-cured vinyl, (meth)acrylic, polyamide, polyester, polyether, polyurethane, epoxy, rubber, polyvinyl acetate adhesive, ethyl acrylate, butyl, 2-ethylhexyl ester, or other homopolymers or copolymers of these with methyl methacrylate, acrylonitrile, styrene, or the like, polyacrylic acid ester adhesive, cyanoacrylate adhesive, ethylene copolymer adhesive made of copolymers of ethylene and vinyl acetate, ethyl acrylate, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, or other monomers, cellulose adhesive, polyester adhesive, polyamide adhesive, polyimide adhesive, amino resin adhesive made of urea resin or melamine resin, phenol resin adhesive, epoxy adhesive, polyurethane adhesive, reactive (meth)acrylic acid adhesive, inorganic adhesive made of chloroprene rubber, nitrile rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber, silicone adhesive, alkali metal silicate, low melting point glass, or other adhesives may be used. For example, those mainly composed of a polyurethane resin which is a cured product of a polyfunctional isocyanate such as an aromatic polyisocyanate (e.g., tolylene diisocyanate, diphenylmethane diisocyanate, polymethylene polyphenylene polyisocyanate) or an aliphatic polyisocyanate (e.g., hexamethylene diisocyanate, xylylene diisocyanate) and a polyether polyol, polyester polyol, polyacrylate polyol, or other hydroxyl group-containing compound are preferred. These can form a thin film with excellent flexibility and bendability, and act as a coating film with flexibility and bendability, improving the suitability for processing such as lamination and printing.

[0067] The adhesive layer can be formed by applying the adhesive by, for example, a direct gravure roll coating method, a gravure roll coating method, a kiss coating method, a reverse roll coating method, a Fountain method, a transfer roll coating method, or other coating methods, and then drying the solvent.2 More than 10g / m 2 or less (dry state), 3 g / m 2 More than 5g / m 2 The thickness of the adhesive layer in a dry state may be 1.5 μm or more and 10 μm or less, or may be 3 μm or more and 5 μm or less.

[0068] In such a package 10, the maximum transmittance of light having a wavelength of 400 nm or more and 800 nm or less may be less than 3.0%. This can improve the light blocking property of the package 10. The transmittance can be measured using a haze meter (product name "HM-150", manufactured by Murakami Color Research Laboratory Co., Ltd., measuring diameter 20 mmφ) in accordance with JIS K7361-1:1997. Specifically, first, three square test pieces each having a side length of 50 mm are cut out from the package 10. The test pieces may include a pattern printed layer. Thereafter, the test pieces are placed in the haze meter so as not to cause wrinkles or the like. At this time, the test pieces are placed in the haze meter so that the substrate layer 11 side faces the light source side. Next, the test pieces are held in an environment at a temperature of 25°C and a relative humidity of 50% for 1 minute, and then the transmittance of the test pieces is measured in an environment at a temperature of 25°C and a relative humidity of 50%. The transmittance is measured for three test pieces, and the maximum value is regarded as the maximum transmittance of the package.

[0069] The packaging body 10 may have a layer structure other than the layer structures shown in Figures 1 to 6. For example, the packaging body 10 may have the following layer structures (1) to (16).

[0070] Such a package 10 may be used to make, for example, a label 20, a lid material 30, a laminate tube 40 or a bag 70.

[0071] Next, the label 20, the lid member 30, the laminate tube 40, or the bag 70 that includes the packaging body 10 according to this embodiment will be described. First, the label 20 will be described.

[0072] 7, when a label 20 is produced from a package 10, the label 20 may be provided on the outside of, for example, a PET bottle 25. In this case, the label 20 may be provided on the outside of the PET bottle 25 so that an outer surface 101 of the package 10 faces away from the contents and an inner surface 102 faces the contents.

[0073] When the label 20 is produced from the packaging body 10, the packaging body 10 may have, for example, the layer configuration of the above-mentioned (10) to (12).

[0074] Next, the lid member 30 will be described.

[0075] 8, when the lid member 30 is made from the packaging body 10, the lid member 30 may be attached to, for example, a cup container 26 to seal the cup container 26. In this case, the lid member 30 may be attached to the cup container 26 so that the outer surface 101 of the packaging body 10 faces away from the contents and the inner surface 102 faces the contents.

[0076] When the lid member 30 is produced from the packaging body 10, the packaging body 10 may have, for example, the layer configurations (7) to (9) described above.

[0077] Next, the laminate tube 40 will be described.

[0078] 9, the laminate tube 40 includes a body tube 41, which is a laminate molded tube, and a head member 43 joined to one end 42 of the body tube 41. The body tube 41 has a generally cylindrical shape. This body tube 41 is formed from a packaging body 10. In this case, the body tube 41 may be configured such that an outer surface 101 of the packaging body 10 faces away from the contents and an inner surface 102 faces the contents.

[0079] The body tube 41 has a body seal portion 44 that joins the packages 10 together. This body seal portion 44 is formed along the longitudinal direction of the body tube 41. Such a body tube 41 may be obtained, for example, by rolling the packages 10 into a cylindrical shape, overlapping opposing ends, and joining them together, for example, by heat sealing.

[0080] The body tube 41 also has a bottom seal portion 45 that joins the packages 10 together. This bottom seal portion 45 is a portion where the packages 10 are joined together near an opening (not shown) formed at the other end 46 of the body tube 41 after an appropriate amount of content C is filled into the package through the opening.

[0081] The head member 43 has a shoulder portion 47 and a mouth portion 48. A cap 49 is attached to the mouth portion 48. The head member 43 is molded by, for example, compression molding. The head member 43 is made of, for example, a resin material such as high density polyethylene (HDPE).

[0082] When the laminate tube 40 (body tube 41) is produced from the packaging body 10, the packaging body 10 may have, for example, the layer configurations (13) to (16) described above.

[0083] Next, a bag 70 including the packaging body 10 according to this embodiment will be described.

[0084] 10, the bag 70 may be a standing pouch formed using the above-mentioned packaging body 10. In this case, the bag 70 may be configured such that the outer surface 101 of the packaging body 10 faces away from the contents and the inner surface 102 faces the contents.

[0085] The bag 70 includes a pair of side seal portions 71, a bottom seal portion 72, and an upper seal portion 73. Of the pair of side seal portions 71, one side seal portion 71 is separated into an upper portion and a lower portion via an unsealed portion 74. A protruding seal portion 75 is formed to protrude into the storage space so as to be connected to the upper portion and the lower portion of the side seal portion 71. The unsealed portion 74 is formed from the outer edge of the bag 70 toward the storage space, and separates the unsealed portion 74 from the storage space. The unsealed portion 74 is formed to protrude toward the storage space beyond the inner edge of one side seal portion 71.

[0086] In this bag 70, a steam escape mechanism is formed by the protruding sealed portion 75 and the unsealed portion 74. When the bag 70 is heated in a microwave oven, the protruding sealed portion 75 peels back and reaches the unsealed portion 74, allowing steam to escape from the unsealed portion 74, thereby reducing the internal pressure of the bag 70. Note that the unsealed portion 74 may have a through portion such as a hole or a cut.

[0087] The bag 70 may be produced by folding the above-mentioned packaging body 10 in two or three. The bag 70 may be produced by preparing two of the above-mentioned packaging bodies 10 and overlapping the surface of the sealant layer 14 of the front packaging body 10 with the surface of the sealant layer 14 of the back packaging body 10 facing each other. The bag 70 may be produced as a gusset-type packaging bag by inserting the folded-over packaging body 10 between the front packaging body 10 and the back packaging body 10 and heat sealing the folded-over packaging body 14. The bag 70 may be produced as a bag of various shapes by adopting a heat seal type such as a side seal type, a two-sided seal type, a three-sided seal type, a four-sided seal type, an envelope seal type, a grooving seal type (pillow seal type), a pleated seal type, a flat bottom seal type, or a square bottom seal type.

[0088] In the above, the heat sealing can be performed by a known method such as bar sealing, rotary roll sealing, belt sealing, impulse sealing, high frequency sealing or ultrasonic sealing.

[0089] When the bag 70 is produced from the packaging body 10, the packaging body 10 may have, for example, the layer configurations (1) to (6) described above.

[0090] Next, a method for producing the packaging body 10 will be described.

[0091] For example, when producing the packaging body 10 shown in Fig. 1, first, a base material layer 11 is prepared. As the base material layer 11, for example, a polyethylene terephthalate film may be used.

[0092] Next, the second shielding layer 16 is printed on the base material layer 11. The second shielding layer 16 is printed using white ink.

[0093] The first shielding layer 12 is then printed on the second shielding layer 16. The first shielding layer 12 is printed using an ink containing metal particles.

[0094] Next, the light-shielding layer 13 is printed on the first shielding layer 12. The light-shielding layer 13 is printed using black ink containing a black pigment.

[0095] Furthermore, an intermediate layer 18 and a sealant layer 14 are prepared. For example, a polyethylene terephthalate film provided with a barrier layer 17 (a vapor deposition film of an inorganic oxide) may be used as the intermediate layer 18. For example, a polyethylene film or the like may be used as the sealant layer 14.

[0096] Next, the base layer 11, the intermediate layer 18 and the sealant layer 14 are laminated together by a dry lamination method, thereby obtaining the package 10 shown in FIG.

[0097] As described above, according to the present embodiment, the packaging body 10 includes the base layer 11, the first shielding layer 12, the light-shielding layer 13, and the sealant layer 14, which are laminated in this order. The first shielding layer 12 contains metal particles. The light-shielding layer 13 contains a black pigment. In this way, the packaging body 10 includes the first shielding layer 12 containing metal particles and the light-shielding layer 13 containing a black pigment, and thus the packaging body 10 can be provided with light-shielding properties and excellent metallic luster. In addition, according to the present embodiment, the metal particles of the first shielding layer 12 and the black pigment of the light-shielding layer 13 do not mix with each other. This makes it possible to prevent the packaging body 10 from becoming dark. In this way, according to the present embodiment, the light-shielding properties and design of the packaging body 10 can be improved.

[0098] In addition, by configuring the first shielding layer 12 containing metal particles and the light-shielding layer 13 containing black pigment as different layers, the laminate strength of the packaging body 10 can be improved, making it more suitable for applications such as heating in a microwave oven.

[0099] Furthermore, according to the present embodiment, the light-shielding layer 13 does not contain metal particles, white pigments, or color pigments. This makes it possible to suppress unevenness in the light-shielding properties of the light-shielding layer 13 and to enhance the light-shielding properties of the light-shielding layer 13. Furthermore, since the light-shielding layer 13 does not contain metal particles, white pigments, or color pigments, it is possible to suppress a decrease in laminate strength between layers adjacent to the light-shielding layer 13 and enhance the concealing effect of the light-shielding layer 13 (suppression of sinking of the pattern).

[0100] Moreover, according to this embodiment, the packaging body 10 further includes a picture-printed layer 15 provided between the base material layer 11 and the first shielding layer 12. This can improve the design of the packaging body 10.

[0101] Moreover, according to this embodiment, the packaging body 10 further includes a second shielding layer 16 provided between the base material layer 11 and the first shielding layer 12. The second shielding layer 16 also contains white ink. This allows the second shielding layer 16 to shield the darkness or blackness of the light-shielding layer 13. Furthermore, when the pattern of the picture-printed layer 15 is viewed from the base material layer 11 side, it can present a white color as a background against the packaging body 10.

[0102] Moreover, according to this embodiment, the packaging body 10 further includes a barrier layer 17 provided between the base material layer 11 and the first shielding layer 12. This can improve the barrier properties of the packaging body 10 against oxygen gas, water vapor, and the like.

[0103] Furthermore, according to this embodiment, the packaging body 10 further includes an intermediate layer 18 provided between the light-shielding layer 13 and the sealant layer 14. This can increase the rigidity of the packaging body 10, and can also increase the impact resistance and pinhole resistance. EXAMPLES
