Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a release primer composition and a laminate. [Background technology]
[0002] Packaging materials made from various plastic films are used for food, confectionery, household goods, pet food, etc., from the viewpoints of design, economy, content protection, transportability, etc. Furthermore, gravure printing or flexographic printing is applied to many packaging materials with the intention of adding designs and messages that will appeal to consumers. To obtain these packaging materials, printing is performed by printing directly onto the surface of the base layer film of the packaging material, or by applying an adhesive or anchor agent to the printed surface of the base layer film of the packaging material as needed, and then laminating the film. In printing for laminating films, a colored ink composition and a white ink composition are printed in sequence on various films such as polyester, nylon, and aluminum foil, and then a polyethylene film or polypropylene film for heat sealing is laminated on the printed layer of the white ink composition by dry lamination using an adhesive or extrusion lamination using an anchor coating agent (see Patent Document 1).
[0003] In recent years, packaging, plastic bottles, and other plastic products made from plastic film have been discarded and dumped into the ocean as litter, causing environmental pollution problems. These plastic products break down in seawater, turning into submicron-sized fragments (microplastics), which float in the water. When these plastics are ingested by marine organisms such as fish, they become concentrated in their bodies. This raises concerns about the health of seabirds and humans who consume these marine organisms as food.
[0004] As one of various efforts to reduce microplastics in order to alleviate such problems, a recycling method has been proposed in which the plastic substrate layer of a laminate is removed from a laminate to which a printing ink composition has been laminated. As methods for removing the plastic substrate layer of a laminate, methods have been proposed using a removing ink composition (see, for example, Patent Document 2), a removing adhesive (see, for example, Patent Document 3), a removing anchor coating agent (see, for example, Patent Documents 4 to 6), and a removing liquid (see, for example, Patent Document 7). However, in these methods, the use of hot water as a release liquid is not sufficient for desorption, and when used in a laminate printing ink composition, there is a problem that moisture resistance is insufficient and laminate strength is reduced. There is also a laminated paper in which an adhesive is applied to a base layer film and a paper base layer is bonded to the laminated paper, and printing is then performed on the paper base layer side of the laminated paper. However, this has the problem that the adhesive remains on the base layer film even after the paper base layer is removed. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0010] The present invention is based on the following points and can be used for laminates and laminated laminates of printed materials for various printing methods and various applications. In this specification, the detachment primer composition of the present invention is sometimes simply referred to as a "primer composition or primer," and a layer consisting of one or more layers having a target surface on which a layer consisting of the detachment primer composition of the present invention is directly formed is simply referred to as a "lower layer (substrate layer)." When there are multiple layers consisting of the detachment primer composition of the present invention, any one of the one or more layers having a target surface is referred to as a "lower layer (substrate layer) or simply a lower layer." A layer consisting of one or more layers having a surface directly disposed on the layer consisting of the removal primer composition on the side opposite the lower layer (substrate layer) of the layer consisting of the removal primer composition is simply referred to as an "upper layer." The layer made of the removable primer composition is sometimes simply referred to as a "removable primer layer." The present invention is significant in that it employs a specific composition as the release primer layer. In this specification, the amine value is the equivalent weight of amino groups per 1 g of solid content, and is calculated as a value converted into the equivalent weight of potassium hydroxide after measuring by potentiometric titration (e.g., COMTITE (AUTO TITRATOR COM-900, BURET B-900, TITSTATION K-900), manufactured by Hiranuma Sangyo Co., Ltd.) using a 0.1 N aqueous hydrochloric acid solution. The structure of the laminate obtained by using the release primer composition of the present invention is not particularly limited, and examples of such a structure include the following two structures. As shown in Figure 1, the structure comprises a lower layer (substrate layer) such as a resin, paper, metal layer, or printed layer, on which a detachable primer layer of the present invention is formed, either directly or via an adhesive, and an upper layer such as a resin, paper, metal layer, or printed layer is then formed, either directly or via an adhesive. As shown in Figure 2, the structure is such that a detachable primer layer of the present invention is formed on a lower layer (substrate layer) such as a resin, paper, metal layer, printed layer, etc., directly or via an adhesive, and an upper layer (1) of a resin, paper, metal layer, printed layer, etc. is formed on top of that, directly or via an adhesive, and a detachable primer layer of the present invention is further formed on top of that, directly or via an adhesive, and an upper layer (2) of a resin, paper, metal layer, printed layer, etc. is formed on top of that, directly or via an adhesive.

The layer that forms the upper film layer may be any layer that is made of a material that can be used for the lower layer (base layer) and can be selected arbitrarily depending on the application of the laminate. Furthermore, the lower layer (substrate layer) and upper layer of any of the laminates may or may not have a printed layer for various purposes such as reverse printing, front printing, shrink printing, etc., as a layer that is not in direct contact with the detachment primer layer of the present invention. Any of the laminates may have the layer structure shown in FIGS. 3 to 6 in the lower layer (base layer) and / or in the upper layer. Furthermore, the positions of the lower layer (substrate layer) and the upper layer may be interchanged with respect to the detachment primer layer.

In this case, the layer in direct contact with the detachment primer layer containing the titanium-modified polyethyleneimine compound is the upper printed layer. In this case, the upper printed layer consists of one or more layers. This upper printed layer may be used in surface printing, shrink printing, etc.

In addition, in a printed matter in which a lower layer (substrate layer), a removable primer layer, a printed layer (upper layer 1), and an upper layer including a film layer (upper layer 2) are formed in this order, the lower layer (substrate layer) and the upper layer can be any of the above. Such a film layer (upper layer 2) can be formed by any known method that results in the formation of a layer other than a printed layer (upper layer 1), such as laminating a film (upper layer 2) onto the printed layer (upper layer 1) with or without an adhesive layer, applying and drying a paint to form a film layer (upper layer 2) that is a coating layer, or melting an anchor coating agent layer onto the printed layer (upper layer 1) to form a resin layer (upper layer 2). The printed layer (upper layer 1) may also be a printed layer for various purposes, such as reverse printing. In this case, the print layer (upper layer 1) and the film layer (upper layer 2) among the upper layers may each independently consist of one layer or multiple layers.

As a means for forming such a film layer (upper layer 2), known means that can ultimately form a layer other than a printed layer (upper layer 1) can be used, such as laminating a film (upper layer 2) onto the upper layer, which is a detachable primer layer, with or without an adhesive layer therebetween, applying and drying a paint to form a film layer (upper layer 2) that is a coating layer, or melting an anchor coating agent layer onto the upper layer, which is a detachable primer layer, to form a resin layer (upper layer 2).The printed layer (upper layer 1) may also be a printed layer (upper layer 1) for various purposes, such as reverse printing. In this case, the print layer (upper layer 1) and the film layer (upper layer 2) among the upper layers may each independently consist of one layer or multiple layers.
[0031] [Laminate having a lower layer (substrate layer), a detachable primer layer containing a titanium-modified polyethyleneimine compound, and an upper layer in direct contact with the detachable primer layer which is a film layer that is not a printed layer] The fourth laminate shown in Figure 6 is one in which a detachment primer layer containing a titanium-modified polyethyleneimine compound is formed on a lower layer (substrate layer), and an upper layer that is in direct contact with the detachment primer layer is a film layer that is not a printed layer. As a means for forming such an upper film layer, any known means that can ultimately form a layer that is not a printed layer as an upper layer can be used, such as laminating an upper film layer onto a detachment primer layer containing a titanium-modified polyethyleneimine compound, with or without an adhesive layer therebetween, or applying and drying a paint to form an upper film layer. In this case, the upper layer is composed of one or more layers, and the layer in direct contact with the detachment primer layer containing the titanium-modified polyethyleneimine compound in Fig. 3 is a film layer, not a printed layer. The layer in direct contact with the detachment primer layer may be a layer made of a material listed for the lower layer (substrate layer) above, an optional adhesive layer, an optional primer layer, or the like. The upper film layer may be composed of one or more layers. When the upper film layer is composed of two or more layers, a layer similar to the detachable primer layer in Fig. 3 may be formed between the layers to bond them together.
[0032] The uses of the four types of laminates, the first to fourth types, are not particularly limited. Furthermore, for each laminate, only a detachment primer composition containing the titanium-modified polyethyleneimine compound of the present invention is used as the detachment primer composition. Furthermore, a separate primer layer other than the detachment layer may be included.
[0033] (Components that can be contained in reverse printing ink compositions, front printing ink compositions, and shrink printing ink compositions) (pigment) In printing using the primer composition of the present invention, the pigment contained in the printing ink composition can be one or more of conventionally used inorganic and organic pigments. The content in each printing ink composition is usually about 1 to 50% by mass.
[0034] <<Reverse printing>> For example, the reverse printing ink composition for forming the printing layer of the present invention shown in Figs. 4 and 5 contains a binder resin and various additives in addition to the above pigment. Examples of usable reverse printing ink compositions include (1) gravure printing ink compositions for reverse printing, (2) active energy ray-curable inkjet printing ink compositions for reverse printing, and (3) active energy ray-curable offset printing ink compositions for reverse printing.
[0035] <(1) Gravure printing ink composition for reverse printing> The gravure printing ink composition for reverse printing contains, in addition to the above pigment, a known binder resin and various additives. The binder resin includes a polyurethane resin, preferably a polyurethane resin having an amine value from the viewpoints of the stability, adhesiveness and lamination suitability of the printing ink composition.
[0036] (Printing method using reverse printing ink composition and laminate obtained thereby) Next, a method for obtaining a laminate print using the reverse printing ink composition will be described. Methods for obtaining laminated prints include at least the following printing methods. For example, in the configuration of Fig. 4, the release primer composition of the present invention is applied to a resin film that will serve as a known lower layer (substrate layer) for lamination. Thereafter, an upper layer is formed inline or off-line using one selected from (1) a gravure printing ink composition for reverse printing, (2) an actinic ray-curable inkjet printing ink composition for reverse printing, and (3) an actinic ray-curable offset printing ink composition for reverse printing, and the resulting ink is printed by various printing methods and dried or cured. In the configuration of Figure 6, the release primer composition of the present invention is applied to a resin film that will serve as a known lower layer (substrate layer) for lamination. Thereafter, the upper layer (1) is formed inline or offline using one of the following: (1) a gravure printing ink composition for reverse printing, (2) an active energy ray-curable inkjet printing ink composition for reverse printing, or (3) an active energy ray-curable offset printing ink composition for reverse printing, and then printed by various printing methods, followed by drying or curing. Next, the release primer composition that will form the upper layer of the present invention is applied to any location on the surface side of the reverse printing ink layer (the lower layer side from the surface layer after final lamination) and dried using a dryer. A resin film or the like that will become the upper layer (2) can be laminated by various methods on the side of the upper layer (1) made from the gravure laminate printing ink composition obtained by the above method, or on the side of the upper layer made from the detachment primer composition of the present invention obtained by the above method, to form a sealant layer for the upper layer (2), thereby obtaining a laminated printed product for packaging bags, etc. Examples of this lamination method include an extrusion lamination method in which a molten polymer that will become the upper layer (2) is laminated on the surface of the printed layer of the upper layer (1) and the surface of the detachment primer layer of the upper layer, with or without coating an anchor coating agent, and a dry lamination method in which an adhesive is applied to the surface of the printed product of the upper layer (1) and the surface of the detachment primer layer of the upper layer, and then a film-like polymer that will become the upper layer (2) is laminated thereon. The resin layer or film-like polymer that forms the upper layer (2) formed by extrusion lamination can be made of resin such as unstretched polypropylene or VMCPP (aluminum-deposited unstretched polypropylene).
[0037] The extrusion lamination method involves coating the surface of the upper layer (1) made of a printing ink composition and the surface of the upper layer made of a release primer composition with an anchor coating agent such as a titanium-based, urethane-based, imine-based, or polybutadiene-based agent as needed, and then laminating a molten polymer that will become the upper layer (2) using a known extrusion laminator, with or without coating.The molten resin can also be sandwiched between other materials to form an intermediate layer.In this case, it is not necessary to use a polyethyleneimine-based anchor coating agent. The molten polymer used in the extrusion lamination method to form the upper layer (2) may be any of the conventionally used resins such as low-density polyethylene, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, polypropylene, etc. Among these, the effect of the present invention is enhanced when it is composed of low-density polyethylene, which is prone to generate carbonyl groups due to oxidation during melting.
[0038] The dry lamination method involves applying an adhesive such as a urethane or isocyanate adhesive to the surface of the printed layer (upper layer 1) made from the reverse printing ink composition and the surface of the detachable primer layer (upper layer) made from the detachable primer composition, and then laminating a resin film that will become the upper layer (2) using a known dry laminating machine. In the present invention, in consideration of retort resistance, it is not necessary to use a laminated product for retort applications. Examples of the resin film used in this case include oriented and unoriented polyolefins such as polyethylene and polypropylene, polyester, nylon, cellophane, vinylon, etc. Furthermore, with regard to these resin films, films obtained by processing in advance such as coating or kneading in an anti-fogging agent, or surface coating or kneading in a matting agent can also be used. Furthermore, as the resin film, films in which a barrier layer formed by metal deposition or coating a barrier resin on various printing plastic films can be used.
[0039] <<Surface printing>> Examples of surface printing ink compositions that can be used for the laminate having the structure shown in FIG. 3 include (1) a gravure printing ink composition for surface printing, (2) an active energy ray-curable inkjet printing ink composition for surface printing, and (3) an active energy ray-curable offset printing ink composition for surface printing. (1) Gravure printing ink composition for surface printing The gravure printing ink composition for surface printing contains a known pigment, a binder resin and various additives. The binder resin contained in the gravure printing ink composition for surface printing can be selected from the following resins, for example, a combination of cellulose resin and polyamide resin, a combination of cellulose resin and polyurethane resin, a combination of polyurethane resin and the above-mentioned vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer, a combination of acrylic resin and polyurethane resin, a combination of cellulose resin and acrylic resin, cellulose resin alone, or the above-mentioned vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer alone.
[0040] <Energy beam curable printing ink composition for surface printing> As the energy beam curable printing ink composition for surface printing, known UV curable inkjet printing ink compositions, energy beam EB (electron beam) curable offset printing ink compositions for surface printing, etc. can be used.
[0041] (Printing method using surface printing ink composition and laminate obtained thereby) Next, a method for obtaining a surface-printed matter using the surface-printing ink composition will be described. A removable primer layer is formed on a surface printing lower layer (substrate layer) using the removable primer composition of the present invention. Then, the surface printing ink composition that will become the upper layer is printed inline or offline using a conventional printing method. The printing, printing speed, drying temperature, and curing conditions can be appropriately selected from known speeds, temperatures, and curing conditions. The lower layer (substrate layer) can be the same as that used for reverse printing.
[0042] <<Printing for shrink packaging>> As the ink composition for shrink packaging that can be used for the laminate having the structure shown in FIG. 3, known ink compositions for shrink packaging can be used.
[0043] (Printing method using shrink printing ink composition and laminate obtained thereby) Next, a method for obtaining a shrink-printed matter using the shrink printing ink composition will be described. A removable primer composition is applied to a shrink-printing lower layer (substrate layer) to form a removable primer layer. Then, shrink printing is performed inline or offline using a conventional printing method with the shrink-printing ink composition that will become the upper layer. The printing speed and drying temperature can be appropriately selected from known speeds and temperatures. The lower layer (substrate layer) can be the same as that used for reverse printing.
[0044] <<Printing on the paper base layer side of laminated paper>> As the printing ink composition for the upper layer used for printing on the paper base layer side of the laminated paper that is the lower layer, which can be used for a laminate having the structure shown in Figure 4, a known aqueous flexographic printing ink composition can be used.
[0045] <Laminate having a lower layer (substrate layer), a detachable primer layer containing a titanium-modified polyethyleneimine compound, and a film layer as an upper layer in direct contact with the detachable primer layer> The film layers used as the lower layer (base layer) and upper layer in FIG. 5 and the like can be the film layers described above. The titanium-modified polyethyleneimine compounds that can be used are those described above. <Method of manufacturing laminate> After forming an adhesive layer on the lower layer (substrate layer) without adhesive or with adhesive applied, the detachable primer composition of the present invention is applied to form a detachable primer layer, and then, after forming an adhesive layer without adhesive or with adhesive applied inline or offline, a film layer can be laminated as an upper layer to obtain a laminate. Furthermore, after forming an adhesive layer on the above film layer (upper layer 1) without adhesive or with adhesive applied, the detachable primer composition of the present invention is applied to form a detachable primer layer, and then, after forming an adhesive layer without adhesive or with adhesive applied inline or offline, a second film layer (upper layer 2) is laminated to obtain a laminate.
[0046] (Desorption method) A laminate having one or more release layers made of the release primer composition of the present invention can be immersed in a release solution to dissolve the release layer, thereby separating the layers of the laminate at the release layer. By separating the layers in this manner, the layers other than the release layer can be separated and recovered in a solid state. For rapid separation, it is preferable to cut the laminate into small pieces. By immersing the laminate in a release liquid, the release layer exposed at the end surface of the laminate comes into contact with the release liquid and dissolves. As the release liquid penetrates into the release layer, the release layer dissolves toward the inside. As a result, the release layer dissolves in the release liquid, and the two layers fixed by the release layer separate from each other and disperse in the release liquid. The release layer made of the release primer composition of the present invention can be prepared by using, as the release liquid in the above-mentioned release method, water at room temperature such as 20° C., hot water at 20 to 90° C., or an alkaline aqueous solution. It is not particularly necessary to contain a surfactant such as a nonionic surfactant or an alcohol-based solvent, but they may be contained. As the desorption liquid in the present invention, hot water at 40 to 80°C is preferably used. [Example]
[0047] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. Unless otherwise specified, "%" means "% by mass" and "parts" means "parts by mass." The numerical values for the amounts of each material in the tables are also in "parts by mass." The desorption primer composition used in the examples and comparative examples is a mixture of solvents with a mass composition of 8 parts ethanol and 2 parts water. However, the present invention is not limited to this mixture. In the examples in the following table, the value of the coating amount (dry) of each coating solution is the coating amount (g / m) after coating and drying. 2 )

[0049] For example, when the solid mass % in the release primer is set as shown in Table 1 below and then printed under the above gravure printing conditions, the following coating amount (g / m 2 ) The coating amount per unit area of the detachment primer composition in the following examples and comparative examples is the coating amount of the detachment primer composition after coating and drying (the total solid content of each component contained in the detachment primer composition). This coating amount was adjusted by diluting with water depending on the concentration of each detachment primer composition. For examples and comparative examples in which the coating amount was not listed in Tables 1 and 2 below, the coating amount was determined based on the coating amount in Table 1 below and the concentration of the solid content by mass in the detachment primer.

[0070] <<Evaluation Results>> <Evaluation of film detachment> After printing, 1.5 g of each of the above printed materials (laminates) was thoroughly dried and then shredded into small pieces of approximately 15 mm MD×25 mm TD to obtain samples for film detachment tests.
[0071] <Film removal test (hot water)> (detachment) Desorption (hot water) conditions: 100 g of desorption solution consisting of water was placed in a 200 cc HDPE (high density polyethylene) container, and heated to 70°C using a water bath. (Mixed with hot water as the supernatant) Each of the film detachment test samples was placed separately in hot water at 70°C in an HDPE container and stirred for 30 minutes using a stainless steel stirring blade with a blade diameter of 25 mm. After stirring, the HDPE container was removed from the water bath and allowed to stand at room temperature for 5 minutes. The detachment liquid and the various film pieces were separated using a stainless steel mesh with openings of approximately 2 mm.
[0072] (rinse) After the removal, each film was transferred to a 200cc HDPE container and 100g of water was added. The mixture was stirred for 5 minutes using a stainless steel stirring blade with a blade diameter of 25mm. After leaving the mixture to stand for 5 minutes, the film pieces were separated from the water using a stainless steel mesh. After drying the film pieces, the peelability of the upper ink layer from the lower ink layer was visually evaluated.
[0073] <Film removal test (alkaline aqueous solution)> (detachment) Desorption (hot water) conditions: 2.0 parts by mass of sodium hydroxide was added to 98.0 parts by mass of water in a 200 cc HDPE (high density polyethylene) container, and the mixture was stirred and dissolved to obtain a desorption liquid consisting of an alkaline aqueous solution. The alkaline aqueous solution was heated to 70°C using a hot water bath. (Mixed with a release solution consisting of an alkaline aqueous solution) After the release solution, consisting of the alkaline aqueous solution, was heated to 70°C, each of the film release test samples was separately placed into the 70°C alkaline aqueous solution and stirred for 30 minutes using a stainless steel stirring blade with a blade diameter of 25 mm. After stirring, the HDPE container was removed from the hot water bath and allowed to stand at room temperature for 5 minutes. The release solution and the various film pieces were separated using a stainless steel mesh with openings of approximately 2 mm.
