Abstract

The present invention provides a packaging material for a patch, the packaging material comprising: an inner layer film made of a polyethylene terephthalate-based resin having heat sealing properties; and a substrate film, wherein a heat-sealing surface of the inner layer film comprises an isophthalic acid-modified polyethylene terephthalate resin having a copolymerization ratio of isophthalic acid component of 10 mol % to 20 mol %. More preferably, the inner layer film made of the polyethylene terephthalate-based resin having heat sealing properties is a multi-layer film comprising at least two layers including a heat sealing surface side layer made of an isophthalic acid-modified polyethylene terephthalate resin having a copolymerization ratio of isophthalic acid component of 10 mol % to 20 mol % and a layer made of an isophthalic acid-modified polyethylene terephthalate resin having a copolymerization ratio of isophthalic acid component of 0 mol % to 5 mol %.

Claims (23)

1. A packaging material for a transdermal patch containing isopropyl myristate, the packaging material comprising:

an inner layer film consisting essentially of polyethylene terephthalate-based resin having heat sealing properties; and

a substrate film, wherein:

the inner layer film is a multi-layer film consisting essentially of at least two resin layers including:

(a) a heat sealing surface side layer consisting essentially of a first isophthalic acid-modified polyethylene terephthalate resin containing only ethylene terephthalate units and modifying isophthalate units, wherein the first isophthalic acid-modified polyethylene terephthalate resin has a copolymerization ratio of isophthalate units of 10 mol % to 20 mol %, and

(b) a substrate film side layer adjacent to the heat sealing surface side layer consisting essentially of a second isophthalic acid-modified polyethylene terephthalate resin containing only ethylene terephthalate units and modifying isophthalate units, wherein the second isophthalic-acid modified polyethylene terephthalate resin has a copolymerization ratio of isophthalate units of 0.1 mol % to 5 mol %,

the heat sealing surface side layer and the substrate film side layer are both unstretched,

the thickness of the heat sealing surface side layer is from above 2 μm to 5 μm,

the thickness of the substrate film side layer is 10 μm to 28 μm,

the packaging material exhibits a heat sealing strength at 110° C. measured according to JIS-Z1707 of at least 15 N/15 mm; and,

the packaging material exhibits a rate of isopropyl myristate absorption of less than 0.1% of a 30 μm LDPE film under the same conditions.

2. The packaging material according to claim 1 , wherein the transdermal patch is a transdermal preparation in which an adhesive layer containing a transdermal drug and isopropyl myristate is formed on one side of a support.

3. A package structure having a transdermal patch packaged with the packaging material according to claim 1 .

4. The package structure according to claim 3 , wherein the transdermal patch is a transdermal preparation in which an adhesive layer containing a transdermal drug and isopropyl myristate is formed on one side of a support.

5. The packaging material according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness of the heat sealing surface side layer is from 3 μm to 5 μm.

6. The packaging material according to claim 1 , wherein the copolymerization ratio of isophthalate units of the second isophthalic acid-modified polyethylene terephthalate resin is 0.1 mol % to 4 mol %.

7. The packaging material according to claim 1 , wherein:

the transdermal patch is a transdermal preparation in which an adhesive layer containing a transdermal drug and isopropyl myristate is formed on one side of a support,

the thickness of the heat sealing surface side layer is from 3 μm to 5 μm, and

the copolymerization ratio of isophthalate units of the second isophthalic acid-modified polyethylene terephthalate resin is 0.1 mol % to 4 mol %.

8. A package structure having a transdermal patch packaged with the packaging material according to claim 7 .

9. The packaging material according to claim 1 , wherein the substrate film comprises a biaxially-stretched polyethylene terephthalate film and an aluminum foil, with the aluminum foil facing the substrate film side layer of the inner layer film.

10. The packaging material of claim 1 , wherein the substrate film and the inner layer film are laminated by use of a two-part curing urethane-based adhesive agent.
