Abstract

The present invention provides a resin-coated stainless steel foil capable of maintaining a strong adherence force to the film even in an electrolytic solution to exhibit good corrosion resistance and excellent in the workability, design property and piecing resistance, and a container and a secondary battery each using the resin-coated stainless steel foil. A resin-coated stainless steel foil having a chromate treatment layer of 2 to 200 nm in thickness on at least one surface of a stainless steel foil and having at least a polyolefin-based resin (A) layer containing a functional group having polarity on the chromate treatment layer; and a container and a secondary battery each using the resin-coated stainless steel foil are also provided.

Claims (20)

1. A resin-coated stainless steel foil having a chromate treatment layer of 5 to 60 nm in thickness on at least one surface of said stainless steel foil and having at least a polyolefin-based resin (A) layer containing a maleic anhydride group having polarity on said chromate treatment layer, wherein the content of said maleic anhydride group having polarity in said polyolefin-based resin (A) is from 0.0005 to 5 mmol/g,

wherein the polyolefin-based resin (A) comprises 50 mass % or more of a resin having a repeating unit represented by the following formula (1) and contains the maleic anhydride group:

—CR 1 H—CR 2 R 3 —  (1)

wherein R 1 and R 2 each independently represents an alkyl group having a carbon number of 1 to 12 or hydrogen, and R 3 represents an alkyl group having a carbon number of 1 to 12, an aryl group, or hydrogen.

2. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said chromate treatment layer has a thickness of 8 to 40 nm.

3. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said stainless steel foil has a thickness of 10 to 200 μm and said polyolefin-based resin (A) layer has a thickness of 0.5 to 200 μm.

4. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the content of said maleic anhydride group having polarity in said polyolefin-based resin (A) is from 0.001 to 1.0 mmol/g.

5. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the content of said maleic anhydride group having polarity in said polyolefin-based resin (A) is from 0.0006 to 4.9 mmol/g.

6. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 1 , having the chromate treatment layer of 5 to 60 nm on one surface of said stainless steel foil, having at least the polyolefin-based resin (A) layer containing the maleic anhydride group having polarity on said chromate treatment layer, and having a resin layer on the other surface of said stainless steel foil.

7. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the resin layer on the other surface of said stainless steel foil is at least one resin layer composed of a resin composition comprising, as the main component, one member or two or more members selected from the group consisting of a polyolefin, a polyester, a polyamide and a polyimide.

8. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the resin layer on the other surface of said stainless steel foil is at least one resin layer composed of a polyester-based resin (E) having finely dispersed therein a rubbery elastomer resin (D) capsulated with a vinyl polymer (C) containing a polar group.

9. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 6 , which has a surface preparation treatment layer between the resin layer on the other surface of said stainless steel foil and said stainless steel foil.

10. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 9 , wherein said surface preparation treatment layer is one layer or two or more layers selected from the group consisting of a chromate treatment layer, a chemical conversion layer and an adhesive layer.

11. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 1 , wherein from 0.01 to 50 mass % of a layered inorganic material (B) is dispersed in said polyolefin-based resin (A).

12. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the longest diameter of said layered inorganic material (B) is 1 μm or less.

13. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 11 , wherein said layered inorganic material (B) is montmorillonite.

14. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 1 , which has a strike plating layer between said chromate treatment layer and said stainless steel foil.

15. The resin-coated stainless steel foil as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the plating species of said strike plating is nickel.

16. A container obtained by shape-forming the resin-coated stainless steel foil claimed in claim 1 .

17. A secondary battery comprising the container of claim 16 .
