Abstract

The present invention relates to a peel detection label that is a laminate having a backing, a pattern layer formed on a part of a surface of the backing, and a pressure sensitive adhesive laminate in this order, the pressure sensitive adhesive laminate having at least an intermediate layer and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer, wherein a tensile modulus Et at 23° C. of the backing is 50 MPa or greater and 1000 MPa or less.

Claims (32)

1. A peel detection label that is a laminate, comprising, in this order:

a backing;

a pattern layer formed on a part of a surface of the backing; and

a pressure sensitive adhesive laminate,

wherein the pressure sensitive adhesive laminate comprises at least an intermediate layer and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer, and

wherein a tensile modulus Et at 23° C. of the backing is 50 MPa or greater and 200 MPa or less, and

wherein a bending resistance of the backing is 50 mN or greater and 150 mN or less.

2. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein when the pressure sensitive adhesive layer of the peel detection label is attached to an adherend and then the peel detection label is peeled from the adherend, an interfacial detachment occurs between the backing and the pattern layer, wherein presence or absence of peeling of the peel detection label from the adherend becomes visually detectable.

3. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein the backing is at least one selected from the group consisting of a polyethylene-based resin film, a polypropylene-based resin film, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer-based resin film, and an ethylene-(meth)acrylic acid copolymer-based resin film.

4. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein a bending resistance of the backing is 75 mN or greater and 150 mN or less.

5. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the backing is 1 μm or greater and 200 μm or less.

6. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein a surface of the backing, the surface of the backing being on a side of the pattern layer formed thereon, is a satin-finished surface.

7. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein the surface of the backing, the surface of the backing being on the side of the pattern layer formed thereon, and a surface of the pattern layer, the surface of the pattern layer being on a side of the intermediate layer formed thereon, are surface-modified using an oxidation method.

8. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein the intermediate layer comprises at least a cover layer and a substrate layer, and

wherein the substrate layer comprises a surface in contact with the pressure sensitive adhesive layer.

9. The peel detection label of claim 8 , wherein the cover layer is a laminate comprising at least a first layer and a second layer,

wherein the first layer is a layer in contact with the surface of the backing and the pattern layer, and

wherein the second layer is a layer in contact with the substrate layer.

10. The peel detection label of claim 8 , wherein the cover layer comprises at least a pressure sensitive adhesive layer.

11. The peel detection label of claim 8 , wherein a tensile storage elastic modulus E′ at 23° C. of the substrate layer is 10 MPa or greater and 800 MPa or less.

12. The peel detection label of claim 8 , wherein the substrate layer is a layer formed from a composition comprising one or more types of non-pressure sensitive adhesive resins selected from the group consisting of acrylic urethane-based resins and olefin-based resins.

13. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein the tensile modulus Et at 23° C. of the backing is 80 MPa or greater and 200 MPa or less.

14. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein the tensile modulus Et at 23° C. of the backing is 100 MPa or greater and 200 MPa or less.

15. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein the backing comprises polyethylene.

16. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein the backing comprises polypropylene.

17. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein the backing comprises an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.

18. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein the backing comprises an ethylene-(meth)acrylic acid copolymer.

19. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein the backing comprises ethylene-(meth)acrylic acid copolymer in at least 80 mass %, relative to total backing mass.

20. The peel detection label of claim 1 , wherein the pressure sensitive adhesive laminate comprises a pressure sensitive adhesive comprising, in polymerized form,

n-butyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, vinyl acetate, and 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate,

or

n-butyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, acrylic acid, and -hydroxyethyl acrylate.
