Delaminatable container
A delaminatable container having excellent restorability of the outer shell shape, transparency, and heat resistance is provided. According to an exemplary aspect, a delaminatable container is provided that includes an outer layer and an inner layer, the inner layer delaminating from the outer layer and being shrunk with a decrease in contents, wherein the outer layer includes a propylene copolymer layer containing a random copolymer of propylene and another monomer.
1. A delaminatable container, comprising:
an outer layer and an inner layer, the inner layer delaminating from the outer layer and being shrunk with a decrease in contents, wherein the outer layer includes a propylene copolymer layer containing a random copolymer of propylene and another monomer, the inner layer includes an external EVOH layer containing an EVOH resin as an outermost layer, and wherein the EVOH has a melting point higher than that of the random copolymer.
2. The delaminatable container according to claim 1 , wherein the melting point of the EVOH is 15° C. or more higher than a melting point of the random copolymer.
3. The delaminatable container according to claim 1 , wherein the inner layer includes a polyethylene layer via an adhesion layer on a side of a container inner surface from the EVOH layer.
4. A delaminatable container comprising an outer layer and an inner layer, the inner layer delaminating from the outer layer and being shrunk with a decrease in contents, wherein the inner layer includes an internal EVOH layer containing an EVOH resin as an innermost layer, and the inner layer includes an external EVOH layer containing an EVOH resin as an outermost layer,
wherein the internal EVOH layer contains the EVOH resin having an ethylene content higher than that in the external EVOH layer.
5. The delaminatable container according to claim 4 , wherein the internal EVOH layer has a thickness from 10 to 20 μm.
6. The delaminatable container according to claim 4 , wherein the external EVOH layer is thicker than the internal EVOH layer.
7. The delaminatable container according to claim 6 , wherein both EVOH resins contained in the internal EVOH layer and the external EVOH layer have a tensile modulus of elasticity of 2000 MPa or less.
8. The delaminatable container according to claim 6 , wherein the inner layer includes an adhesion layer between the internal EVOH layer and the external EVOH layer.
9. The delaminatable container according to claim 8 , wherein the adhesion layer has a thickness greater than a total of a thickness of the internal EVOH layer and a thickness of the external EVOH layer.
