Abstract

There is provided a novel non-chlorine-based stretch packaging film capable of exhibiting a good packaging suitability such as a high packaging efficiency and neat packaging finish even when carrying out the packaging using an automatic packaging machine adapted for polyvinyl chloride. The stretch packaging film comprises a laminated film having at least three layers, which comprises opposite outermost surface layers each comprising an ethylene-based resin (A) as a main component and an intermediate layer comprising a propylene-based resin (B) as a main component, the stretch packaging film having an average loss tangent (tan δ) at −40 to 0° C. of not less than 0.12 and a loss tangent (tan δ) at 20° C. of not less than 0.20 as measured at an oscillation frequency of 10 Hz and a distortion of 0.1% by a dynamic viscoelasticity measuring method.

Claims (9)

1 . A stretch packaging film which comprises a laminated film having at least three layers comprising: opposite outermost surface layers each comprising an ethylene-based resin (A) as a main component and

an intermediate layer comprising a propylene-based resin (B) as a main component, and

which stretch packaging film has an average loss tangent (tan δ) at −40 to 0° C. of not less than 0.12 and a loss tangent (tan δ) at 20° C. of not less than 0.20 as measured at an oscillation frequency of 10 Hz and a distortion of 0.1% by a dynamic viscoelasticity measuring method.

2 . The stretch packaging film according to claim 1 , wherein a storage elastic modulus (E′) at 20° C. of the laminated film is in the range of 100 to 500 MPa as measured at an oscillation frequency of 10 Hz and a distortion of 0.1% by a dynamic viscoelasticity measuring method.

3 . The stretch packaging film according to claim 1 , wherein the intermediate layer has a crystallization peak temperature (Tc) of not lower than 70° C. and a heat of crystallization (ΔHc) of 10 to 60 J/g as measured at a temperature drop rate of 10° C./min using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC).

4 . The stretch packaging film according to claim 1 , wherein the intermediate layer comprises the following component (C) or (D):

(C) a block copolymer of an aromatic vinyl compound and isobutylene; or

(D) at least one resin selected from the group consisting of a petroleum resin, a terpene resin, a chroman-indene resin, a rosin-based resin and a hydrogenated derivative thereof.

5 . The stretch packaging film according to claim 1 , wherein the ethylene-based resin (A) is an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer having a vinyl acetate unit content of 5 to 25% by mass and a melt flow rate of 0.2 to 10 g/10 min (as measured at 190° C. under a load of 21.18 N according to JIS K 7210).
