AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing packaging films face issues with varying peel strength stability due to fluctuations in heating temperatures during heat sealing, leading to inconsistent seal quality.

Method used

A film composition comprising 70% to 95% polypropylene and 5% to 30% polyethylene, with specific infrared peak intensity ratios, orientation degrees, and heat of fusion values, produced using an air-cooled inflation film-forming method, ensuring consistent high peel strength and stability.

Benefits of technology

The film achieves stable and high peel strength in heat-sealed seals, maintaining consistent seal quality despite variations in heating temperatures.

Abstract

To provide a film capable of forming a seal having a comparatively high peel strength by heat sealing, and capable of forming a seal excellent in stability of peel strength.SOLUTION: A film satisfies the following requirement (1), requirement (2), requirement (3), and requirement (4), and has a thickness of 10 μm or more and 300 μm or less. Requirement (1): When the total mass of the film is 100 mass%, 70 mass% or more and 95 mass% or less of polypropylene, and 5 mass% or more and 30 mass% or less of polyethylene are contained. Requirement (2): The ratio of a peak strength of the polyethylene to a peak strength of polypropylene of the film determined by an infrared ATR method is 0.3 or more and 0.55 or less. Requirement (3): The degree of orientation of the polypropylene calculated by an infrared dichroic ratio is 0 or higher and 0.17 or lower. Requirement (4): The quantity of heat of fusion required from 20°C to 130°C is 50 J / g or more and 70 J / g or less.SELECTED DRAWING: None
