The present invention relates to an adhesive, a laminate obtained using the adhesive, a method for producing a laminate, and a packaging material.
Conventionally, laminated composite films obtained by bonding various plastic films, metal foils, and the like using an adhesive have been widely used in the field of packaging. As this laminating adhesive, two-component curable adhesives including an organic solvent in which polyester polyol, polyether polyol, polyurethane polyol, or an arbitrary mixture thereof and an organic polyisocyanate compound are blended have been widely used. However, in recent years, from the viewpoint of improvement in a working environment, emission regulation of a volatile organic compound (VOC) to the atmosphere and the like, the transition from an organic solvent-based adhesive to a solvent-free adhesive progresses.
Generally, when a laminate is obtained using a two-component curable adhesive, a step of bonding base materials using an adhesive obtained by mixing two liquid components and then curing the adhesive (aging step) is provided. It usually takes several days to perform the aging step at about 40 to 50° C. (PTLs 1 and 2), but recently, attempts of further decreasing temperature and time for the aging step have been made (PTL 3).
However, further decreasing temperature and time for the aging step is synonymous with enhancing the reactivity of two liquid components. The viscosity of the adhesive is likely to precipitously increase immediately after mixing the two liquid components, and the adhesive is difficult to be sufficiently wet and spread over a base material, which causes a decrease in adhesiveness between the base material and the adhesive. The invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a two-component curable adhesive which can be aged at room temperature and has favorable adhesiveness to various base materials.
The present inventors have found that the above problems can be solved by a two-component curable adhesive including a polyisocyanate composition (X) including a polyisocyanate compound (A) and a polyol composition (Y) including a polyol (B), in which a viscosity of the polyol composition at 50° C. is 20 mPa·s or more and 180 mPa·s or less.
That is, the invention relates to a two-component curable adhesive including a polyisocyanate composition (X) including a polyisocyanate compound (A) and a polyol composition (Y) including a polyol (B), in which a viscosity of the polyol composition at 50° C. is 20 mPa·s or more and 180 mPa·s or less.
According to the adhesive of the invention, it is possible to provide an adhesive which can be aged at room temperature and is excellent in adhesiveness to various base materials.
An adhesive of the invention is a two-component curable adhesive including a polyisocyanate composition (X) including a polyisocyanate compound (A) and a polyol composition (Y) including a polyol (B), in which a viscosity of the polyol composition at 50° C. is 20 mPa·s or more and 180 mPa·s or less. Hereinafter, the adhesive of the invention will be specifically described.
The polyisocyanate composition (X) includes a polyisocyanate compound (A). The polyisocyanate compound (A) is not particularly limited and known polyisocyanate compounds can be used, and examples thereof include polyisocyanates having an aromatic structure in the molecular structure such as tolylene diisocyanate, diphenylmethane diisocyanate, polymeric diphenylmethane diisocyanate, 1,5-naphthalene diisocyanate, triphenylmethane triisocyanate, and xylylene diisocyanate, and compounds in which a part of NCO group of these polyisocyanates is modified with carbodiimide;
When a polyurethane polyisocyanate is used as the polyisocyanate compound (A), from the viewpoint of a balance between cohesion and flexibility of a coating film of the adhesive, the polyurethane polyisocyanate is preferably obtained by reacting the polyisocyanate and the polyol described above at a ratio of an equivalent ratio [NCO]/[OH] of an isocyanate group to a hydroxyl group of 1.2 to 5.0.
Examples of the polyol used for preparation of the polyurethane polyisocyanate include linear aliphatic glycols such as ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, 1,3-propanediol,
Examples of the polycarboxylic acid used for production of the polyester polyol (2), (3), or (4) include acyclic aliphatic dicarboxylic acids such as succinic acid, adipic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, dodecanedicarboxylic acid, maleic anhydride, and fumaric acid;
From the viewpoint of excellent reactivity and exhibiting favorable adhesiveness even in the case of curing at room temperature, the polyisocyanate compound (A) preferably includes an aromatic polyisocyanate, particularly, diphenylmethane diisocyanate or a derivative thereof, or a polyurethane polyisocyanate (A1) which is a reaction product of diphenylmethane diisocyanate and a polyol.
From the viewpoint of excellent adhesiveness to a metal base material such as an aluminum foil or an inorganic deposition layer such as silica or alumina, the polyisocyanate compound (A) preferably includes a polyurethane polyisocyanate (A2) which is a reaction product of an aromatic polyisocyanate and a polyester polyol. The polyester polyol used in synthesis of the polyurethane polyisocyanate (A2) preferably includes an aromatic polycarboxylic acid or a derivative thereof as a raw material.
The viscosity of the polyisocyanate composition (X) at 50° C. is preferably 200 mPa·s or more and 3000 mPa·s or less, and more preferably 300 mPa s or more and 1500 mPa·s or less. When the viscosity of the polyisocyanate composition (X) is in this range, the polyisocyanate composition (X) is not immediately mixed with the polyol composition (Y) described below, and it takes time to achieve a uniformly mixed state. During the time until the uniformly mixed state is achieved, the reaction between the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y) proceeds only locally, and a state where the viscosity of the polyol composition (X) is low can be maintained. Therefore, the polyol composition (X) can be sufficiently wet and spread over the base material, and an adhesive more excellent in adhesiveness to the base material can be obtained. Note that, the viscosity of the polyisocyanate composition (X) in the present application is a value measured using a rotational type viscometer under the conditions of cone plate: 1° × diameter 50 mm, shear rate: 100 sec-1, and 50° C. ± 1° C.
The polyisocyanate composition (X) having an isocyanate content ratio as measured by a titration method (using di-n-butylamine) of 5 to 20% by mass is preferable.
The polyol composition (Y) used in the adhesive of the invention includes a polyol (B) and has a viscosity at 50° C. of 20 mPa·s or more and 180 mPa·s or less. Such a polyol composition (X) has extremely favorable wettability to various base materials such as a plastic film, an aluminum foil, an aluminum deposition layer, and an inorganic deposition layer, and can be sufficiently wet and spread before the reaction with the polyisocyanate composition (X) is started to increase the viscosity of the adhesive layer, and adhesiveness between the adhesive layer and the base material becomes stronger by an interaction between the polyol composition (Y) and, for example, a functional group present on the surface of a metal layer or a polyester film. That is, the adhesive of the invention can be aged at room temperature and is excellent in adhesiveness to various base materials. Note that, the viscosity of the polyol composition (Y) in the present specification is a value measured using a rotational type viscometer under the conditions of cone plate: 1° × diameter 50 mm, shear rate: 100 sec-1, and 50° C. ± 1° C.
Examples of the method of adjusting the viscosity of the polyol composition (Y) include a method in which polyols (B) described below having a viscosity at 50° C. of 20 mPa·s or more and 180 mPa·s or less are used singly or in combination of a plurality of kinds thereof, a method of using a polyol (B) having a viscosity of more than 180 mPa·s and a polyol (B) having a viscosity of 180 mPa·s or less in combination, and a method of adjusting the viscosity using a plasticizer.

The polyol (B) preferably includes a polyol compound having a secondary hydroxyl group. Since the secondary hydroxyl group has lower reactivity than a primary hydroxyl group, the polyol compound is likely to be wet and spread over the base material before the start of reaction with the polyisocyanate composition (X).

When the polyol composition (Y) includes the amine compound (C), the amine value of the polyol composition (Y) is preferably 1 mgKOH/g or more and 100 mgKOH/g or less.

Note that, the amine value in the present specification refers to milligrams of KOH equivalent to the HCl amount necessary for neutralizing 1 g of a sample, is not particularly limited, and can be calculated using a known method. When the chemical structure of the amine compound (C), and, as necessary, the average molecular weight, and the like are known, the amine value can be calculated by (the number of amino groups per one molecule/the average molecular weight) × 56.1 × 1000. When the chemical structure of the amine compound, the average molecular weight, and the like are not known, the amine value can be measured according to a known amine value measuring method, for example, JIS K 7237-1995.

The main chain of the monool compound (D) is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a vinyl resin having one hydroxyl group, an acrylic resin, a polyester, an epoxy resin, and a urethane resin. Furthermore, an aliphatic alcohol, alkyl alkylene glycol, and the like can also be used. The main chain of the monool compound (D) may be linear or branched. The binding position of the hydroxyl group is not particularly limited, but is preferably present at the terminal of the molecular chain. By using the monool compound (D), flexibility can be imparted to a cured coating film of the adhesive, and improvement in seal strength can be expected.
The adhesive of the invention is characterized in that the viscosity of the polyol composition (Y) at 50° C. is 20 mPa·s or more and 180 mPa·s or less, but when a polyol (B) having a relatively small molecular weight is used in order to adjust the viscosity of the polyol composition (Y) in this range, a cured coating film of the adhesive may be hardened in some cases. The combined usage of the monool compound (D) is effective, for example, in such a case.
Specific examples of such a monool compound (D) include aliphatic monools such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, pentanol, hexanol, heptanol octanol, nonanol, decanol lauryl alcohol, myristyl alcohol, pentadecanol, cetyl alcohol, heptadecanol, stearyl alcohol, nonadecanol, other alkanols (C20 to 50), oleyl alcohol, and isomers thereof,

polyoxyalkylene monools obtained by subjecting an alkylene oxide such as ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide, or tetrahydrofuran to a ring-opening addition polymerization using an alkyl compound or the like containing one active hydrogen as an initiator.
The adhesive of the invention is used in the form of a solvent-free type. Note that, a “solvent-free type” adhesive in the present specification refers to the form of the adhesive used in a method, a so-called non-solvent lamination method, in which the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y) do not substantially include an organic solvent having high solubility, for example, esters such as ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, and cellosolve acetate, ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, isobutyl ketone, and cyclohexanone, ethers such as tetrahydrofuran and dioxane, aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene and xylene, halogenated hydrocarbons such as methylene chloride and ethylene chloride, dimethyl sulfoxide, and dimethyl sulfonamide, particularly, ethyl acetate or methyl ethyl ketone, the adhesive is applied to a base material, and then the base material is bonded to another base material without performing a step of evaporating the solvent by heating with an oven or the like. When constituents of the polyisocyanate composition (X) or the polyol composition (Y) remain or an organic solvent used as a reaction medium at the time of production of raw materials of the polyisocyanate composition (X) or the polyol composition (Y) is not completely removed and a trace amount of the organic solvent remains in the polyisocyanate composition (X) or the polyol composition (Y), it is speculated that the organic solvent is not substantially included. Furthermore, when the polyisocyanate composition (X) includes a low-molecular-weight alcohol, the low-molecular-weight alcohol reacts with the polyol composition (Y) to form a part of a coating film, and thus it is not necessary to evaporate the low-molecular-weight alcohol after coating. Therefore, such a form is also regarded as a solvent-free type adhesive, and the low-molecular-weight alcohol is not regarded as an organic solvent.
The adhesive of the invention may include components other than the above-described components. These components may be included in any one or both of the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y), or may be prepared separately from the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y) and mixed with the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y) immediately before applying the adhesive. Each component will be described below.
The adhesive of the invention can promote curing reaction by using a catalyst as necessary. The catalyst is not particularly limited as long as it promotes the urethane formation reaction of the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y), and examples thereof include a metal-based catalyst (E1) and an aliphatic cyclic amide compound (E2).

Examples of the aliphatic cyclic amide compound (E2) include δ-valerolactam, ε-caprolactam, ω-enantholactam, q-capryl lactam, and β-propiolactam. Among these, ε-caprolactam is more effective in curing acceleration.

The blending amount of the catalyst (E) is set to preferably 0.001 to 3 parts by mass and more preferably 0.01 to 2 parts by mass, with respect to 100 parts by mass of the total solid content of the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y).

A laminate of the invention can be obtained by a known method. The laminate is obtained, for example, by a method including a two-component mixing step of mixing the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y) in advance, applying the mixture to a first base material film, laminating a second base material film on the coating surface, and curing the adhesive layer to obtain a laminate, or a method including a two-component separate coating step of separately applying the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y) to a first base material film and a second base material film, bringing respective coating surfaces into contact with each other and performing pressure-bonding to laminate the first base material film and the second base material film, and curing the adhesive layer to obtain a laminate.
In particular, from the viewpoint of more easily securing the time until the polyol composition (Y) is wet and spread over the base material, the adhesive of the invention is preferably used in the method including a separate coating step. During the time until the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y) each are applied to different base materials and then the base materials are brought into contact with each other, the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y) can be sufficiently wet and spread over the base materials.
As another form of the two-component separate coating, it is also preferable that a mixture of the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the compound having a hydroxyl group is applied to one base material, the polyol composition (Y) is applied to the other base material, these base materials are laminated by bringing these coating surfaces into contact with each other and performing pressure-bonding, and the adhesive layer is cured. As the compound having a hydroxyl group to be mixed with the polyisocyanate composition (X), the compounds exemplified as the polyol (B) and the monool compound (D) can be used.
Examples of a preferred embodiment of the method for producing a laminate of the invention include a method in which the polyol composition (Y) is applied to an aluminum deposition layer of a base material having the aluminum deposition layer, the polyisocyanate composition (X) is applied to the other base material, and the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y) are brought into contact with each other and pressure-bonded. A solvent-free type adhesive is inferior in adhesiveness to the aluminum deposition layer in many cases, but by using the adhesive of the invention and employing the above-described method, adhesiveness between the adhesive layer and the aluminum deposition layer can be made favorable.
Examples of another preferred embodiment of the method for producing a laminate of the invention include a method in which the polyisocyanate composition (X) is applied to a printing layer of a base material having the printing layer, the polyol composition (Y) is applied to the other base material, and the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y) are brought into contact with each other and pressure-bonded. When the printing layer and the other base material are boned using the solvent-free type adhesive, the adhesive may dissolve the printing layer, which causes poor appearance in some cases. By employing the above-described method, the poor appearance of the laminate can be suppressed.
The pressure-bonding method is preferably a method of bonding using a pressure between rolls while passing through a space between two rolls (lamination rolls), the temperature of the lamination roll is preferably room temperature to about 80° C. (practically 50° C., 80° C. at most), and the pressure is preferably about 0.05 to 0.5 MPa. In this way, a laminate film can be obtained.
Even in any of the methods, when the two-component curable adhesive of the invention is used, the adhesive is cured at room temperature (20 to 25° C.) or by beating, more specifically, 15 to 35° C. for 12 to 72 hours after lamination, and practical physical properties are exhibited.
The coating amount of each of the polyisocyanate composition (X) and the polyol composition (Y) is preferably 0.3 to 3.0 g/m2, and more preferably about 0.3 to 2.0 g/m2.
The base material film used in a laminate and a packaging material which are produced using the two-component curable adhesive of the invention is preferably a plastic film usually used in a laminate film. Examples of the first base material film include base films or aluminum foils such as a polyethylene terephthalate (hereinafter, abbreviated as “PET”) film, a nylon (hereinafter, abbreviated as “Ny”) film, a biaxially stretched polypropylene (hereinafter, abbreviated as “OPP”) film, and various deposition films. Furthermore, examples of the second base material film include sealant films such as an unstretched polypropylene (hereinafter, abbreviated as “CPP”) film and a linear low-density polyethylene (hereinafter, abbreviated as “LLDPE”) film. Furthermore, paper can also be used as the base material. Examples of the paper include natural paper and synthetic paper. A printing layer may be provided on the outer surface or inner surface of the base material layer and the paper layer, as necessary.
The laminate film obtained in this way can be industrially used as a packaging material in which a cleanser or a drug is filled, such as a soft packaging film or a soft packaging material (packaging of which the shape is formed by filling a content). Specific examples of use applications include, as a cleanser and a drug, laundry liquid detergents, dish liquid detergents, bath liquid detergents, bath liquid soaps, liquid shampoo, and liquid conditioner.
The packaging material produced using the two-component curable adhesive of the invention does not cause peeling of a laminate structure such as delamination not only during filling of contents such as cleansers, drugs, and the like but also after the elapse of time from the filling, and has excellent adhesiveness and content resistance.
Furthermore, those in which a printing ink is gravure-printed or flexographically printed on the first plastic film may be used, and even in this case, favorable laminate appearance can be exhibited. As the printing ink, a solvent-type, aqueous, or active energy ray-curable ink can be used.
When the two-component adhesive used in the invention is used, the adhesive is cured at room temperature or by heating for 12 to 72 hours after lamination, and practical physical properties are exhibited.
A packaging material of the invention is obtained by molding the laminate film in a bag shape, and specifically, the laminate film is heat-sealed to form a packaging material. Furthermore, in consideration of the use application and required performances (easy tearability and hand cuttability) as the packaging material, the rigidity and the durability (for example, impact resistance and pinhole resistance) required as the packaging material, and the like, as necessary, another layer can also be laminated. Usually, the packaging material is used with the base material layer, the paper layer, a second sealant layer, a non-woven fabric layer, and the like. As the method for laminating other layers, known methods can be used. For example, other layers may be laminated by disposing an adhesive layer in the interlayer space with the other layer, and by a dry lamination method, a heat lamination method, a heat-sealing method, an extrusion lamination method, or the like.
Specific examples of the laminate configuration include the base material layer/the adhesive layer/the first plastic film layer/the adhesive layer/the second plastic layer using the first plastic film layer/the adhesive layer/the second plastic layer or the first plastic layer as a barrier layer, which can be suitably used for, for example, common packaging materials, lid materials, and repacking containers, the second plastic layer/the paper layer/the adhesive layer/the first plastic film layer/the adhesive layer/the second plastic, the second plastic layer/the paper layer/the polyolefin resin layer/the base material layer/the first plastic layer/the adhesive layer/the second plastic layer, the paper layer/the first plastic film layer/the adhesive layer/the sealant layer, which can be suitably used for, for example, paper vessels and paper cups, and the second plastic layer/the adhesive layer/the first plastic layer/the adhesive layer/the second plastic layer, which can be suitably used for, for example, tubular containers. These laminates may have, as necessary, printing layers, top coating layers, or the like.
As the first plastic film layer, for example, films of polyester resins such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate(PEN), and polylactic acid (PLA); films of polyolefin resins such as polypropylene; a polystyrene resin film; films of polyamides such as nylon 6 and poly-p-xylylene adipamide (MXD6 nylon); a polycarbonate resin film; a polyacrylonitrile resin film; a polyimide resin film; composite laminates of these (for example, nylon 6/MXD6/nylon 6, nylon 6/ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer/nylon 6), and mixtures of these are used. Among these, resin films having mechanical strength and dimensional stability are preferable. In particular, among these, optionally biaxially stretched films are preferably used.
Furthermore, in the first plastic film layer, in order to impart the barrier function, in addition to soft metal foils such as an aluminum foil, adoptable examples of the barrier layer include deposition layers such as aluminum deposition, silica deposition, alumina deposition, and silica-alumina binary deposition; and organic barrier layers made of a vinylidene chloride-based resin, modified polyvinyl alcohol, an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, MXD nylon, and the like.
As the second plastic film layer, conventionally known sealant resins can be used. Examples thereof include polyethylenes such as low-density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), and high-density polyethylene (HDPE); and polyolefin resins such as acid-modified polyethylene, polypropylene (PP), acid-modified polypropylene, copolymerized polypropylene, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, an ethylene-(meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer, an ethylene-(meth)acrylic acid copolymer, and ionomer. Among these, from the viewpoint of low-temperature sealing property, polyethylene-based resins are preferable, and because of being low in price, polyethylene is particularly preferable. The thickness of the sealant layer is not particularly limited, but in consideration of the processability into packaging materials and the heat-sealing property, the thickness of the sealant layer is preferably in a range of 10 to 60 µm and more preferably in a range of 15 to 40 µm. Furthermore, by providing the sealant layer with asperities having height differences of 5 to 20 µm, the sealant layer can be imparted with slippage and the tearability of packaging materials.
Examples of the paper layer include natural paper and synthetic paper. The first and second sealant layers can be formed using the same material as that of the sealant layer described above. A printing layer may be provided on the outer surface or inner surface of the base material layer and the paper layer, as necessary.
The “other layers” may include known additives and stabilizers, such as an antistatic agent, an easily adhesive coating agent, a plasticizer, a lubricant, and an antioxidant. Furthermore, the “other layers” may also be films whose surfaces are subjected to pretreatments such as a corona treatment, a plasma treatment, an ozone treatment, a chemical treatment, and a solvent treatment, for the purpose of improving the adhesiveness in the lamination with the other materials.
Examples of various embodiments of the packaging material of the invention include a three sided-sealed bag, a four sided-sealed bag, a gusset packaging bag, a pillow packaging bag, a gable top-type bottomed container, tetra classic, a brick type, a tubular container, a paper cup, and a lid material. Furthermore, the packaging material of the invention may be appropriately provided with easy-to-unseal treatment or a reseating means.
In recent years, a packaging material with a zipper that can be sealed again even when opened once has been widely used. A packaging body with a zipper is obtained by attaching, by heat-sealing, a zipper tape to a sealant film of a laminate in which a base material and a sealant film are bonded through an adhesive layer, and then heat-sealing a portion, which is the outer periphery of the packaging body, again. Therefore, a portion where the zipper tape edge and the outer periphery of the packaging body overlap with each other is subjected to a heat-sealing process twice. Further, the laminate is transformed by interposing the zipper tape, and a load is also applied to the adhesive layer. From these reasons, peeling is likely to occur in the interlayer space between the base material and the adhesive layer or the adhesive layer and the sealant film.
Examples of the configuration of the laminate suitable for the packaging material with a zipper include:
The packaging material of the invention can be industrially used as a packaging material in which food, a cleanser, or a drug is mainly filled. Specific examples of use applications include, as a cleanser and a drug, laundry liquid detergents, dish liquid detergents, bath liquid detergents, bath liquid soaps, liquid shampoo, liquid conditioner, and pharmaceutical tablets. Furthermore, the packaging material of the invention can also be used for a secondary packaging material packaging the above-described containers. In particular, since the two-component adhesive is used, the packaging material of the invention can be suitably used as packaging materials for foods and drugs which have a problem of elution.
