Abstract

An adhesive for laminating a metal foil to a resin film, the adhesive including: a polyol (A); a multimer of a polyisocyanate (B); and a metal compound (C) being a compound of at least one metal of Groups 7 and 12, wherein the multimer of a polyisocyanate (B) contains a multimer of a saturated aliphatic polyisocyanate and a multimer of a saturated alicyclic polyisocyanate. Also disclosed is a laminate having a metal foil and a resin film laminated through an adhesive layer obtained from the adhesive for laminating of the invention. Yet further disclosed is a packaging material for a battery casing obtained by using the laminate. Yet further disclosed is a battery case obtained by using the packaging material for a battery casing. Also disclosed is a method for producing a battery case which includes deep drawing or bulging the packaging material for a battery casing.

Claims (17)

1. An adhesive for laminating a metal foil to a resin film, the adhesive comprising: a carboxyl group-containing polyolefin resin (A); a polyfunctional isocyanate compound (B); and a metal compound (C) being a compound of at least one metal of Groups 7 and 12,

wherein the compound (C) comprises zinc neodecanoate, zinc 2-ethylhexanoate, zinc stearate, zinc acetylacetonate, or manganese 2-ethylhexanoate.

2. The adhesive for laminating a metal foil to a resin film according to claim 1 , wherein the carboxyl group-containing polyolefin resin (A) comprises a modified polyolefin resin comprising, as a monomer unit, propylene or propylene and ethylene and an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid or an anhydride thereof.

3. The adhesive for laminating a metal foil to a resin film according to claim 1 , wherein the carboxyl group-containing polyolefin resin (A) comprises a carboxyl group-containing polyolefin resin having an MFR of 5 g/10 min to 42 g/10 min as measured at 130° C.

4. The adhesive for laminating a metal foil to a resin film according to claim 1 , wherein the polyfunctional isocyanate compound (B) comprises a multimer of a polyisocyanate.

5. The adhesive for laminating a metal foil to a resin film according to claim 1 , wherein the multimer of a polyisocyanate comprises an isocyanurate of a polyisocyanate.

6. The adhesive for laminating a metal foil to a resin film according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the number of isocyanato groups contained in the polyfunctional isocyanate compound (B) to the number of carboxyl groups contained in the carboxyl group-containing polyolefin resin (A) is 0.5 to 13.

7. The adhesive for laminating a metal foil to a resin film according to claim 1 , wherein the metal compound (C) comprises at least one or more carboxylate of at least one metal of Groups 7 and 12.

8. The adhesive for laminating a metal foil to a resin film according to claim 1 , wherein the metal compound (C) comprises a carboxylate of zinc or manganese.

9. The adhesive for laminating a metal foil to a resin film according to claim 1 , further comprising a solvent (D).

10. A laminate in which a metal foil and a resin film are laminated through an adhesive layer obtained from the adhesive for laminating a metal foil to a resin film according to claim 1 .

11. The laminate according to claim 10 , wherein the metal foil is aluminum foil, and the resin film comprises a heat-fusible resin film.

12. The laminate according to claim 10 , wherein the thickness of the metal foil is 10 to 100 μm, and the thickness of the resin film is 9 to 100 μm.

13. A packaging material for a battery casing obtained by using the laminate according to claim 10 .

14. A battery case obtained by using the packaging material for a battery casing according to claim 13 .

15. A method for producing a battery case, comprising: deep drawing or bulging the packaging material for a battery casing according to claim 13 .

16. The adhesive for laminating a metal foil to a resin film according to claim 1 , wherein the metal compound (C) is a reaction accelerator which accelerates a reaction of the carboxyl group-containing polyolefin resin (A) and the polyfunctional isocyanate compound (B).
