Description

Polyolefin resin composition and molded article made therefrom

[0001] The present invention relates to a polyolefin resin composition and a molded article manufactured therefrom. More specifically, the present invention relates to a polyolefin resin composition having excellent adhesion strength to a polar substrate, adhesion strength to a polar substrate after high-temperature thermal history, and a molded article manufactured therefrom.

[0002]

[0003] Multilayer laminated packaging materials are widely used for packaging contents where quality preservation is critical, such as food, pharmaceuticals, and electronic devices. Laminates used for this purpose are generally composed of a polar substrate layer with excellent barrier properties (blocking gases such as oxygen) and a non-polar polyolefin-based resin layer with excellent moisture resistance and chemical resistance.

[0004] Among polyolefin resins, polypropylene resin is widely used as a thermoplastic molding material due to its excellent heat resistance, chemical resistance, and rigidity. However, it is common practice to use acid modification to achieve adhesion to polar substrate layers. Additionally, elastomers are typically blended with polypropylene resin to impart flexibility and wettability, thereby achieving improved adhesion. Furthermore, since polypropylene resin is a material with insufficient gas barrier properties, it is common practice to use it in a multilayer laminate form with polar materials to compensate for this. However, because polypropylene resin is a non-polar material, it has a lack of adhesion to polar materials with excellent gas barrier properties, such as polyamide resins, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymers, and metals.

[0005] To address these issues, acid-modified polypropylene, manufactured using a technique that modifies polypropylene resin with unsaturated carboxylic acids or their derivatives, has been widely used in the past. However, since using such acid-modified polypropylene alone results in insufficient flexibility and wettability, it is typically used in combination with polypropylene resin, acid-modified polypropylene, and an elastomer component when applied as an adhesive resin. Nevertheless, even when using an elastomer, there is a risk that adhesion properties may deteriorate under heating conditions, such as those using hot air ovens or microwave ovens.

[0006] Therefore, there is a need to develop polyolefin resin compositions that exhibit excellent adhesion strength to polar substrates and adhesion strength to polar substrates after high-temperature thermal history.

[0007] The background technology of the present invention is disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2004-269688, Korean Registered Patent No. 10-1200658, etc.

[0121] From the above results, it can be seen that the polyolefin resin composition of the present invention has excellent adhesion strength to polar substrates (aluminum, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, etc.), adhesion strength to polar substrates after high-temperature thermal history (using a hot air oven, microwave oven, etc.), and moldability (melt flow index).

[0122] On the other hand, in Comparative Example 1, in which a small amount of random polypropylene resin was applied and an excess amount of propylene-ethylene-1-butene copolymer was applied, it can be seen that the adhesive strength to the polar substrate after high-temperature thermal history is reduced, and in Comparative Example 2, in which an excess amount of random polypropylene resin was applied and a small amount of propylene-ethylene-1-butene copolymer was applied, it can be seen that the adhesive strength to the polar substrate and the adhesive strength to the polar substrate after high-temperature thermal history are reduced. In Comparative Example 3, in which a small amount of ethylene-propylene elastomer is applied and an excess amount of propylene-ethylene elastomer is applied, it can be seen that the adhesion strength to the polar substrate and the adhesion strength to the polar substrate after high-temperature thermal history are reduced. In Comparative Example 4, in which an excess amount of ethylene-propylene elastomer is applied and a small amount of propylene-ethylene elastomer is applied, it can be seen that the adhesion strength to the polar substrate and the adhesion strength to the polar substrate after high-temperature thermal history are reduced. Additionally, in Comparative Example 5, in which an excess amount of random polypropylene resin is applied and a propylene-ethylene-1-butene random copolymer is not applied, it can be seen that the adhesion strength to the polar substrate and the adhesion strength to the polar substrate after high-temperature thermal history are reduced.
