Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a printed resin film, a laminate including the printed resin film, and a packaging container including the laminate. The present invention also relates to a laminate including a polyester film, and a packaging container including the laminate. [Background technology]
[0002] Conventionally, films made of resin materials (resin films) have been used as substrates (hereinafter referred to as substrates for packaging materials) constituting laminates used in the manufacture of packaging containers such as packaging bags, etc. As such films, for example, polyester films are widely used because they are excellent in mechanical properties, chemical stability, heat resistance, and transparency, and are inexpensive.
[0003] The fossil fuel polyesters used in the manufacture of polyester film are copolymers of dicarboxylic acids and diols, which are produced from the fossil fuel petroleum. In recent years, with the aim of reducing the environmental burden, such as by cutting carbon dioxide emissions, packaging containers have been produced using polyester obtained by mechanically recycling polyester contained in used packaging containers (hereinafter referred to as mechanically recycled polyester) instead of fossil fuel polyester (see Patent Document 1).
[0004] However, the degree of contamination of packaging containers varies depending on the contents filled in them and the storage environment. It is possible that consumers may be concerned about hygiene when using packaging containers made of mechanically recycled polyester. Therefore, from the viewpoint of hygiene, the use of chemically recycled polyester is being considered. Chemically recycled polyester is obtained by decomposing polyester contained in used packaging containers to the monomer level, removing contaminants, and then polymerizing it again, which is more hygienic.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0025] An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 20. In the drawings attached to this specification, the scale and aspect ratios have been appropriately changed and exaggerated from those of the actual objects for the convenience of illustration and ease of understanding.
[0026] In addition, terms used in this specification that specify shapes, geometric conditions, and the degree thereof, such as "parallel," "orthogonal," and "same," as well as values of length and angle, are not to be bound by strict meanings, but are to be interpreted to include a range within which similar functions can be expected.
[0027] In this specification, the term "inside" refers to the side of the contents when the packaging container is manufactured, and the term "outside" refers to the side opposite the inside.
[0028] (Printed resin film 10) As shown in FIG. 1, a printed resin film 10 of the present invention comprises a polyester film 11 and a printed layer 12. As shown in FIG. 1, the polyester film 11 includes at least a first polyester layer 13, a second polyester layer 14, and a third polyester layer 15. In one embodiment, the printed resin film 10 can include a paper substrate layer between the polyester film 11 and the printed layer 12 (not shown). In one embodiment, the printed resin film 10 may have one or more adhesive layers, such as an adhesive layer, an adhesive resin layer, or an anchor coat layer, between the polyester film 11 and the paper base layer (not shown).
[0029] (Polyester film 11) Polyester film 11 is A first polyester layer 13 containing chemically recycled polyester as a main component; A second polyester layer 14 including at least one selected from the group consisting of chemically recycled polyester, mechanically recycled polyester, fossil fuel polyester, and biomass polyester; and a third polyester layer 15 containing chemically recycled polyester as a main component. This can improve the environmental load reduction of the printed resin film 10 including the polyester film 11 and the laminate 20 including the polyester film 11, and can provide the same puncture strength, retort resistance, and gas barrier properties as conventional fossil fuel polyester films. When a packaging container is produced using the polyester film 11 of the present invention, the first polyester layer 13 may be placed either on the inside or the outside.
[0030] As long as the characteristics of the present invention are not impaired, multiple polyester layers such as a fourth, fifth and sixth polyester layers (referred to as other polyester layers) may be provided on the first polyester layer 13 or under the third polyester layer 15, so that the polyester film 11 has a structure of four or more layers. The other polyester layer may contain chemically recycled polyester as a main component, or may contain chemically recycled polyester and at least one selected from the group consisting of mechanically recycled polyester, fossil fuel polyester, and biomass polyester.
[0031] In this specification, the term "polyester" refers to a material obtained by a polycondensation reaction between a diol compound and a dicarboxylic acid compound. Examples of dicarboxylic acid compounds include malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, suberic acid, sebacic acid, dodecanedioic acid, eicosanedioic acid, pimelic acid, azelaic acid, methylmalonic acid, ethylmalonic acid, adamantanedicarboxylic acid, norbornenedicarboxylic acid, cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, decalindicarboxylic acid, terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, phthalic acid, 1,4-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 1,5-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 1,8-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 4,4'-diphenyldicarboxylic acid, 4,4'-diphenyletherdicarboxylic acid, 5-sodiumsulfoisophthalic acid, phenylendanedicarboxylic acid, anthracenedicarboxylic acid, phenanthrenedicarboxylic acid, 9,9'-bis(4-carboxyphenyl)fluorene acid, and ester derivatives thereof. Examples of the diol compound include ethylene glycol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,3-propanediol, butanediol, 2-methyl-1,3-propanediol, hexanediol, neopentyl glycol, cyclohexanedimethanol, cyclohexanediethanol, decahydronaphthalenedimethanol, decahydronaphthalenediethanol, norbornanedimethanol, norbornanediethanol, tricyclodecanedimethanol, tricyclodecaneethanol, tetracyclododecanedimethanol, tetracyclododecanediethanol, decalindimethanol, decalindiethanol, Examples of the copolymer include 5-methylol-5-ethyl-2-(1,1-dimethyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-1,3-dioxane, cyclohexanediol, bicyclohexyl-4,4'-diol, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxycyclohexylpropane), 2,2-bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)cyclohexyl)propane, cyclopentanediol, 3-methyl-1,2-cyclopentadiol, 4-cyclopentene-1,3-diol, adamantanediol, paraxylene glycol, bisphenol A, bisphenol S, styrene glycol, trimethylolpropane, and pentaerythritol. Furthermore, the polyester may contain a monomer other than the dicarboxylic acid compound and the diol compound, so long as the characteristics of the present invention are not impaired.
[0032] In addition, in this specification, "chemically recycled polyester" refers to a material obtained by collecting used polyester (e.g., at least one polyester selected from the group consisting of fossil fuel polyester, biomass polyester, chemically recycled polyester, and mechanically recycled polyester) containers, crushing, washing, separating foreign matter, and forming them into flakes or pellets, which are then depolymerized using ethylene glycol to decompose into bis-β-hydroxyethyl terephthalate (BHET), and polyester is polymerized again using BHET as a raw material. In addition, in this specification, "mechanically recycled polyester" refers to polyester (for example, at least one polyester selected from the group consisting of fossil fuel polyester, biomass polyester, chemically recycled polyester, and mechanically recycled polyester) containers, etc., which are collected, crushed, washed, separated from foreign matter, etc., and then regenerated into flakes or pellets. Note that the decomposition method, etc. is not limited to this. Moreover, the term "fossil fuel polyester" refers to a polyester in which a diol derived from a fossil fuel is used as a diol unit and a dicarboxylic acid derived from a fossil fuel is used as a dicarboxylic acid unit. The term "biomass polyester" refers to a polyester that contains ethylene glycol derived from biomass as a diol unit and a dicarboxylic acid derived from a fossil fuel as a dicarboxylic acid unit, or that contains ethylene glycol derived from biomass and a diol derived from a fossil fuel as diol units and a dicarboxylic acid derived from a fossil fuel as a dicarboxylic acid unit. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere contains a certain percentage of C14 (105.5 pMC), so it is known that the C14 content in plants that grow by absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, such as corn, is also about 105.5 pMC. It is also known that fossil fuels contain almost no C14. Therefore, the percentage of carbon derived from biomass can be calculated by measuring the percentage of C14 in the total carbon atoms in polyester. Taking polyethylene terephthalate as an example, polyethylene terephthalate is a polymer of ethylene glycol containing 2 carbon atoms and terephthalic acid containing 8 carbon atoms in a molar ratio of 1:1. Therefore, if only biomass-derived ethylene glycol is used, the weight ratio of biomass-derived components in polyester is 31.25%, so the theoretical value of the biomass degree is 31.25%.
[0033] Moreover, "containing chemically recycled polyester as a main constituent" means that the first polyester layer or the second polyester layer contains 50% by mass or more of chemically recycled polyester relative to 100% by mass of the solid content contained in the first polyester layer or the second polyester layer.
[0034] The content of the chemically recycled polyester in the first polyester layer 13 is preferably 80% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less, and more preferably 90% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less. The first polyester layer 13 preferably contains polyester in an amount of 90% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less, and more preferably contains polyester in an amount of 95% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less.
[0035] Among the chemically recycled polyesters contained in the first polyester layer 13, chemically recycled polyethylene terephthalate is particularly preferred from the viewpoints of transparency and ease of recovery of used polyethylene terephthalate containers, which are the raw material. The first polyester layer 13 may contain two or more types of chemically recycled polyesters.
[0036] Within the range that does not impair the characteristics of the present invention, the first polyester layer 13 may contain a resin material other than chemically recycled polyester (hereinafter referred to as other resin materials). For example, fossil fuel polyester, biomass polyester, mechanically recycled polyester, (meth)acrylic resin, polyolefin, vinyl resin, cellulose resin, ionomer resin, and the like can be mentioned.
[0037] In the first polyester layer 13, the content of the resin material other than polyester is preferably 10% by mass or less, preferably 5% by mass or less, preferably 1% by mass or less, and particularly preferably not contained.
[0038] Also, within the range that does not impair the characteristics of the present invention, the first polyester layer 13 can contain additives.

[0041] The content of the chemically recycled polyester in the second polyester layer 14 is not particularly limited as long as it satisfies the area ratio of the region of molecular weight of 1,000 or less in the molecular weight distribution curve obtained by GPC measurement of the polyester film 11 described below, but is preferably 20% by mass or more and 99% by mass or less, and more preferably 50% by mass or more and 99% by mass or less. The second polyester layer 14 may contain two or more types of chemically recycled polyesters.
[0042] The sum of the contents of the mechanically recycled polyester, fossil fuel polyester and biomass polyester in the second polyester layer 14 is not particularly limited as long as it satisfies the area proportion of the region with a molecular weight of 1,000 or less in the molecular weight distribution curve obtained by GPC measurement of the polyester film 11 described below, but is preferably 1% by mass or more and 80% by mass or less, and more preferably 1% by mass or more and 50% by mass or less.

[0044] The chemically recycled polyester and at least one polyester selected from the group consisting of mechanically recycled polyester, fossil fuel polyester, and biomass polyester contained in the second polyester layer 14 are preferably polyethylene terephthalate, which improves the transparency of the polyester film 11 and facilitates the recovery of used containers.
[0045] As long as the characteristics of the present invention are not impaired, the second polyester layer 14 may contain a resin material other than polyester, such as (meth)acrylic resin, polyolefin, vinyl resin, cellulose resin, and ionomer resin.
[0046] In the second polyester layer 14, the content of resin materials other than polyester is preferably 10% by mass or less, more preferably 5% by mass or less, and even more preferably 1% by mass or less, and particularly preferably none.
[0047] Furthermore, the second polyester layer 14 may contain additives, provided that the properties of the present invention are not impaired. Examples of additives include oxygen absorbers, plasticizers, UV stabilizers, antioxidants, coloring inhibitors, matting agents, deodorants, flame retardants, weather resistance agents, antistatic agents, friction reducers, slip agents, release agents, antioxidants, ion exchange agents, antiblocking agents, and colorants.
[0048] The thickness of the second polyester layer 14 is preferably 1 μm or more and 12 μm or less, more preferably 2 μm or more and 6 μm or less, which realizes an appropriate thickness and a layer ratio that is nearly symmetrical, thereby improving the film-forming property and the stability of physical properties.
[0049] The content of the chemically recycled polyester in the third polyester layer 15 is preferably 80% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less, and more preferably 90% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less. The third polyester layer 15 preferably contains polyester in an amount of 90% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less, and more preferably contains polyester in an amount of 95% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less.

[0054] The thickness of the third polyester layer 15 is preferably 1 μm or more and 12 μm or less, more preferably 2 μm or more and 6 μm or less, which realizes an appropriate thickness and a layer ratio that is nearly symmetrical, thereby improving the stability of film-forming properties and physical properties.
[0055] The configuration of the third polyester layer 15 may be the same as or different from the configuration of the first polyester layer 13.
[0056] The polyester film 11 is characterized in that the area ratio of the region with a molecular weight of 1,000 or less in the molecular weight distribution curve obtained by measuring the polyester film 11 by GPC (gel permeation chromatography) is 1.8% or less of the total peak area. Since such polyester film 11 has a reduced content of components with a molecular weight of 1,000 or less (hereinafter also referred to as low molecular weight components), it is possible to suppress the inclusion of low molecular weight components in the contents filled in the packaging container, and to improve the hygiene of the packaging container manufactured using the printed resin film of the present invention. It is more preferable that the area ratio of the region having a molecular weight of 1,000 or less is 1.7% or less of the total peak area. From the viewpoint of hygiene, it is preferable that the area ratio of the region having a molecular weight of 1,000 or less is smaller relative to the total peak area, but the area ratio of the region having a molecular weight of 1,000 or less may be, for example, 0.01% or more of the total peak area.
[0057] The GPC measurement of the polyester film 11 is carried out in accordance with JIS K 7252-1:2008. Specifically, 10 g of the polyester film 11 is cut out and weighed in a 30 mL vial, and a HFIP / chloroform mixture is added to the vial, which is then left to stand for 12 hours to dissolve. After allowing to stand, add chloroform to dilute and prepare a 0.1% solution. This solution is filtered using a 0.45 μm hydrophilic PTFE membrane filter cartridge (Millex-LH, manufactured by Merck Millipore), and the obtained filtrate is subjected to GPC measurement under the following conditions. (Measurement conditions) Columns used: Agilent Technologies, 2 PLgel 5μ MIXED (7.5mm x 300mm) Column temperature: 40℃ Mobile phase: Chloroform (Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd., for liquid chromatography) ·Flow rate: 1.0mL / min ·Injection volume: 2.5μL Detection: 254nm (UV-Visible detector) Molecular weight calibration: Monodisperse polystyrene (Agilent Technologies, PS-1) Equipment: 515 HPLC pump, 717plus automatic injection device, UV-visible detector (Waters)
[0058] The melting point of the polyester film 11 is preferably 250° C. or less, and more preferably 248.5° C. or less, which allows the polyester film 11 to be formed at a high speed, that is, improves the film formability.
[0059] The melting point of the polyester film 11 is preferably 230° C. or higher, and more preferably 240° C. or higher, so that the heat resistance of the polyester film 11 can be improved.
[0060] The crystallization temperature of the polyester film 11 is preferably 196° C. or lower, and more preferably 195° C. or lower, which can improve the stretching stability of the polyester film 11, that is, improve the film-forming properties. The crystallization temperature of the polyester film 11 is preferably 185° C. or higher, and more preferably 190° C. or higher, so that the heat resistance of the polyester film 11 can be improved.
[0061] In this specification, the "melting point" and "crystallization temperature" are measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in accordance with JIS K 7121:2012 as follows. First, (1) a polyester film sample (5 mg) is heated from 20°C to 300°C at a rate of 10°C / min. (2) It is then held at 300°C for 5 minutes. (3) It is then cooled from 300°C to 20°C at a rate of -10°C / min. (4) It is then held at 20°C for 5 minutes. (5) It is again heated from 20°C to 300°C at a rate of 10°C / min. This gives a melting curve. The main peak in the temperature-lowering stage of this melting curve was taken as the crystallization temperature, and the main peak in the second temperature-up stage was taken as the melting point.
[0062] The static friction coefficient of the non-printed surface of the polyester film 11 is preferably 0.35 or more, and more preferably 0.40 or more, which can suppress excessive slippage on the surface of the packaging container manufactured using the printed resin film of the present invention and improve the stacking stability when stacked. The static friction coefficient of the non-printed surface of the polyester film 11 is preferably 0.60 or less, and more preferably 0.50 or less, which stabilizes the running performance in a packaging machine and improves the high-speed filling and packaging performance. The static friction coefficient of the polyester film 11 can be measured in accordance with JIS K 7125:1999 as follows.
[0063] First, the printed resin film 10 is cut to prepare a test piece of 200 mm×150 mm. Next, this test piece is attached and fixed to the sliding table of the tester with cellophane tape so that the polyester film 11 faces upward. Next, the printed resin film 10 is cut to prepare a test piece of 70 mm x 100 mm. The test piece is then wrapped around a 63 mm×63 mm×6.3 mm metal thread (weight 200 g) with the printed layer on the inside and the polyester film 11 on the outside. Next, the polyester films 11 are placed on the fixed printed resin film 10 so that the polyester films 11 are in contact with each other.

[0163] Next, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples. However, the present invention is not limited to the description of the following examples as long as it does not depart from the gist of the present invention.
[0164] (Example 1-1) Chemically recycled polyethylene terephthalate and a blend resin of chemically recycled polyester and fossil fuel polyethylene terephthalate were co-extruded and then biaxially stretched to produce a polyester film 11 having a first polyester layer 13 made of chemically recycled polyester and having a thickness of 3 μm, a second polyester layer 14 made of the blend resin and having a thickness of 6 μm, and a third polyester layer 15 made of chemically recycled polyester and having a thickness of 3 μm.
[0165] A printed layer 12 was formed on the surface of the third polyester layer 15 of this polyester film 11 by gravure printing, to obtain a printed resin film 10 of the present invention.
[0166] (Comparative Example 1-1) Fossil fuel polyethylene terephthalate was extruded by the T-die method, and then biaxially stretched to produce a polyester film with a thickness of 12 μm.
[0167] A printed layer was formed on one surface of this polyester film by gravure printing to obtain a printed resin film.
[0168] <<Measurement of the composition ratio of low molecular weight components>> The polyester films obtained in the above Examples and Comparative Examples were prepared, and 10 g of each was cut out and weighed in a 30 mL vial. A HFIP / chloroform mixture was added to the vial, and the mixture was allowed to stand for 12 hours to dissolve. After standing, chloroform was added to dilute the solution to prepare a 0.1% solution. This solution was filtered using a 0.45 μm hydrophilic PTFE membrane filter cartridge (Millex-LH, manufactured by Merck Millipore), and the obtained filtrate was subjected to GPC measurement under the following conditions. In the obtained molecular weight distribution curve, the area ratio of the region of molecular weight of 1,000 or less was determined. The area ratio of the region of molecular weight of 1,000 or less is shown in Table 1. Note that the molecular weight distribution curve in the region of molecular weight of 1,000 or less is shown in FIG. (Measurement conditions) Column used: Agilent Technologies, 2xPLgel 5μ MIXED (7.5mm x 300mm) Column temperature: 40℃ Mobile phase: Chloroform (Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd., for liquid chromatography) ·Flow rate: 1.0mL / min ·Injection volume: 2.5μL Detection: 254nm (UV-Visible detector) Molecular weight calibration: Monodisperse polystyrene (Agilent Technologies, PS-1) Equipment: 515 HPLC pump, 717plus automatic injection device, UV-visible detector (Waters)
[0169] <<Cyclic trimer content measurement>> The polyester films obtained in the above Examples and Comparative Examples were prepared. Approximately 0.1 g of a sample was taken from the polyester film, and this sample was dissolved in a mixture of hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) and chloroform. Acetonitrile was added to this solution to precipitate the polymer, and the precipitate was then filtered. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness, and the resulting residue was dissolved in dimethylformamide (DMF). This solution was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to measure the content of cyclic trimers. The measurement results are shown in Table 1. The measurement conditions were as follows. (Measurement conditions) Equipment: Shimadzu Corporation, LC-20 Column used: Nomura Chemical Co., Ltd., Develosil ODS-HG-3 3μ (4.6×150mm) Column temperature: 40℃ Mobile phase: 0.5% acetic acid aqueous solution / acetonitrile (gradient) ·Flow rate: 1.0mL / min ·Injection volume: 15μL Detection: 254nm (UV-Visible detector) Equipment: Shimadzu Corporation, LC-20
[0170] <<Crystallization temperature and melting point measurement>> The polyester films obtained in the above Examples and Comparative Examples were prepared, and 5 mg of each film was cut out to obtain samples. The sample was heated from 20°C to 300°C at a rate of 10°C / min and held at 300°C for 5 minutes. The sample was then cooled from 300°C to 20°C at a rate of -10°C / min. The sample was then held at 20°C for 5 minutes. The sample was then heated again from 20°C to 300°C at a rate of 10°C / min. This gave a melting curve. The main peak in the temperature-lowering stage of this melting curve was taken as the crystallization temperature, and the main peak in the second temperature-up stage was taken as the melting point. The crystallization temperature and melting point are shown in Table 1.
[0171] <<Measurement of static friction coefficient>> The printed resin films obtained in the above Examples and Comparative Examples were prepared, and each printed resin film was cut to prepare a test piece of 200 mm x 150 mm. Next, this test piece was attached and fixed to the sliding table of the tester with cellophane tape so that the polyester film (the first polyester layer in Example 1-1) faced upward. Next, a test piece cut to 70 mm x 100 mm from the printed resin film was wrapped around a 63 mm x 63 mm x 6.3 mm metal thread (weight 200 g) with the printed layer on the inside and the polyester film (first polyester layer for Example 1-1) on the outside. Next, the polyester films (the first polyester layer in Example 1-1) were placed on the fixed printed resin film so that the polyester films were in contact with each other. Next, the metal thread around which the test piece was wound was slid at a speed of 100 mm / min in an environment of 23° C. and 50% relative humidity, and the friction was measured using a friction measuring device (TR-2, manufactured by Toyo Seiki Co., Ltd.). The measurement results are shown in Table 1.
[0172] <<Hygiene evaluation>> The polyester films obtained in the above Examples and Comparative Examples were prepared, and the printed resin film was cut into test pieces of 200 mm x 200 mm. Next, 80 mL of ion-exchanged water was placed in a 100 mL glass flask, and the above test piece was placed therein. The opening of the glass flask was then covered with aluminum foil, and the glass flask was placed in a water bath and heated at 80° C. for 60 minutes. After the glass flask was cooled to room temperature, three panelists checked the change in taste of the ion-exchanged water before and after the above treatment. Since the taste of ion-exchanged water changes when low molecular weight components are mixed in, the polyester film, which did not change the taste of the ion-exchanged water, can suppress the mixing of low molecular weight components into the ion-exchanged water and is therefore excellent in hygiene. Hygiene was evaluated based on the following evaluation criteria. The evaluation results are shown in Table 2. Reference Example 1-1 was performed as described above without using a test piece. <Evaluation criteria> A: None of the three people noticed any change in taste. B: Two out of three people did not notice any change in taste. NG: More than two out of three people noticed a change in taste.

[0174] [Table 2]
[0175] (Example 2-1) A polyester film 11 was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1-1. A two-component curing anchor agent (A3210 / A3075 manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc.) was coated on one side of the polyester film 11 to form an anchor coat layer. Then, an aluminum foil (7 μm) was bonded to the anchor coat layer through an adhesive resin layer (15 μm) while extruding fossil fuel low density polyethylene using a sand lamination method. Then, an anchor coat layer was formed by coating the surface of the aluminum foil with a two-component curing anchor agent. Then, a heat seal layer (30 μm) was formed by melt extrusion laminating fossil fuel low density polyethylene on the anchor coat layer. This resulted in a laminate 20 in which the polyester film 11 (base layer 25), the anchor coat layer, the adhesive resin layer, the aluminum foil, the anchor coat layer, and the heat seal layer were laminated in this order.
[0176] (Example 2-2) A polyester film 11 was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1-1. The polyester film 11 and a biaxially stretched nylon film (15 μm) were bonded together by a dry lamination method using a two-component curing adhesive (manufactured by Toyo-Morton: base agent TM556 / curing agent CAT56). Separately, an aluminum foil (7 μm) and a block polypropylene film (60 μm) as a heat seal layer were attached to each other by a dry lamination method using a two-component curing adhesive. The biaxially oriented nylon film side and the aluminum foil side of these dry laminate films were bonded together by a dry lamination method using a two-component curing adhesive. This resulted in a laminate 20 in which the polyester film 11 (substrate layer 25), an adhesive layer, a biaxially oriented nylon film, an adhesive layer, an aluminum foil, an adhesive layer, and a heat seal layer were laminated in this order.
[0177] (Example 2-3) A polyester film 11 was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1-1. The polyester film 11 and a polyethylene film serving as a heat seal layer were bonded together using a two-component curing adhesive. As a result, a laminate 20 was obtained in which the polyester film 11 (base layer 25), the adhesive layer, and the heat seal layer were laminated in this order.

[0181] <<Measurement of puncture strength>> The puncture strength was measured according to JIS Z1707 7.4 using the laminates obtained in Example 2-1 and Comparative Example 2-1. A Tensilon universal material testing machine RTC-1310 manufactured by A&D was used as the measuring device. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 19, a semicircular needle 110 having a diameter of 1.0 mm and a tip shape radius of 0.5 mm was pierced from the polyester film side of the laminate 20 in a fixed state at a speed of 50 mm / min (50 mm per minute), and the maximum value of the stress until the needle 110 penetrated the laminate 20 was measured. The maximum value of the stress was measured and used as the puncture strength of the laminate 20. The environment during the measurement was a temperature of 23°C and a relative humidity of 50%. A similar test was also performed from the heat seal layer side of the laminate 20 to measure the puncture strength. The measurement results are shown in Table 3.
[0182] <<Seal strength measurement>> The laminate obtained in Example 2-1 and Comparative Example 2-1 was cut to a length of 100 mm and a width of 15 mm to obtain a test piece 120. The test piece 120 was used to measure the seal strength. The seal strength was measured in accordance with JIS K 7127:1999 under an environment of a temperature of 25°C and a relative humidity of 50%, and a tensile tester: SA-1150 manufactured by Orientec Co., Ltd. was used as the measuring device. Specifically, first, two test pieces 120 were prepared, the sealant surfaces were placed opposite each other, and one end was heat-sealed at a temperature of 140°C and a load of 1 kg for one second to form a sealed portion 121. Next, as shown in FIG. 20, the test pieces 120 were arranged so that they were in the opposite directions to each other in a direction perpendicular to the surface direction of the sealed portion 121 of the test piece 120, that is, in a T-shape, and then the end of the non-sealed portion of one test piece 120 and the end of the non-sealed portion of the other test piece 120 were fixed to grippers 122 and 123, respectively. The chuck distance (S) was set to 50 mm, and the gripping tools 122, 123 were pulled in opposite directions perpendicular to the surface direction of the seal portion 121 of the test piece 120 at a speed of 300 mm / min, and the maximum tensile stress was measured. This maximum tensile stress was taken as the seal strength. The measurement results are shown in Table 3. The heat sealing conditions were also changed to a temperature of 160° C., and the seal strength was measured in the same manner. The measurement results are shown in Table 3.
[0183] <<Suitability for retort processing>> The laminates obtained in Example 2-2 and Comparative Example 2-2 were cut into 130 mm x 180 mm squares, and two sheets of this were prepared. The sealant layers of the laminates were placed facing each other, and the outer periphery of three sides, excluding one short side, was heat-sealed with a 10 mm wide seal bar at a temperature of 180°C and a load of 1 kg for 1 second to form a packaging bag. A test piece with a width of 15 mm and a length of 100 mm was cut from the long side, and the seal strength of the test piece before retort treatment was measured in the same manner as above. A similar packaging bag was also prepared, 150cc of water was poured into it, and the unsealed short side was heat sealed under the same conditions as above to prepare a water-filled packaging bag. This was then retorted at 121°C and 0.2 MPa for 30 minutes, after which the water was removed and a test piece 15mm wide and 100mm long was cut out from the long side, and the seal strength of the test piece after retort treatment was measured in the same manner as above. The packaging bags were also visually observed before and after the retort treatment to check for any changes in the appearance of the polyester film of the packaging bag. The results are shown in Table 4.
[0184] <<Oxygen permeability measurement>> The oxygen permeability was measured using the laminates obtained in Example 2-3 and Comparative Example 2-3.
