Abstract

A package ( 1 ) includes a bag ( 20 ) and a sheet laminate ( 10 ) packaged in the bag ( 20 ). The sheet laminate ( 10 ) includes a first fiber sheet ( 11 ) including a first fiber including a PET resin having a melting point higher than 230° C., and a second sheet ( 12 ) including a thermoplastic resin having a melting point of 230° C. or lower. The sheet laminate ( 10 ) includes a joined portion ( 30 ) in which the first fiber sheet ( 11 ) and the second sheet ( 12 ) are joined adjacently to each other. In the joined portion ( 30 ), constituent resin of the first fiber sheet ( 11 ) is embedded in the thermoplastic resin constituting the second sheet ( 12 ). The present invention also provides a production method of the package.

Claims (25)

1 . A package comprising:

a bag; and

a sheet laminate packaged in the bag, wherein

the sheet laminate includes:

a first fiber sheet including a first fiber including a constituent resin which contains a polyethylene terephthalate resin having a melting point of 230° C. to 300° C., inclusive; and

a second sheet including a thermoplastic resin having a melting point of 70° C. to 230° C., inclusive,

the sheet laminate includes a joined portion in which the first fiber sheet and the second sheet are joined adjacently to each other,

in the joined portion, the thermoplastic resin constituting the second sheet buries gaps among the constituent fibers of the first fiber sheet with the constituent fibers of the first fiber sheet maintaining fiber shapes thereof, and

the first fiber sheet, the second sheet, and a heating element including an oxidizable metal are laminated on a site other than a formation site of the joined portion.

2 . The package according to claim 1 , wherein the thermoplastic resin included in the second sheet comprises one or two or more selected from a polyolefin resin, polyester resin, polyamide resin, vinyl resin, acrylic resin, and a fluororesin.

3 . The package according to claim 1 , wherein

the second sheet is a fiber sheet,

in the joined portion, fiber shapes of constituent fibers of the second sheet are not maintained, and

in a non-joined portion in which the joined portion is not arranged, fiber shapes of constituent fibers of the second sheet are maintained.

4 . The package according to claim 1 , wherein

in the joined portion, a boundary surface of each of the first fiber sheet and the second sheet does not exist, or the boundary surface is unclear.

5 . The package according to claim 1 , wherein in the sheet laminate, the first fiber sheet is arranged such that the first fiber sheet forms an outer surface of the sheet laminate.

6 . The package according to claim 1 , wherein a content ratio of the polyethylene terephthalate resin in the constituent resin included in the first fiber is 50% by mass or more.

7 . The package according to claim 1 , wherein the constituent resin included in the first fiber consists only of the polyethylene terephthalate resin having the melting point of 230° C. to 300° C., inclusive.

8 . The package according to claim 1 , further comprising a second fiber as a constituent fiber of the first fiber sheet, wherein

the second fiber includes a thermoplastic resin having a melting point of 70° C. to 230° C., inclusive.

9 . The package according to claim 1 , wherein the first fiber sheet and/or the second sheet is a nonwoven fabric.

10 . The package according to claim 1 , wherein the bag is made of a resin film.

11 . The package according to claim 1 , wherein the heating element is between the first fiber sheet and the second sheet, in the site other than the formation site of the joined portion.

12 . The package according to claim 1 , wherein the sheet laminate is a sanitary product.
