Patent Description:
Conventionally, packaging materials corresponding to the contents of various products such as foods, beverages, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals have been developed. In particular, plastic materials excellent in water resistance, oil resistance, gas barrier properties, light weight, flexibility, design, etc., are used as packaging materials for contents such as liquids, semi-solids, and gel substances.

Also, as a packaging material for contents such as liquids, semi-solids and gel substances, a plastic laminate of multiple types of plastic base materials, a composite laminate of paper, metal foil, inorganic material or the like and a plastic base material, a composite of plastic base material treated with a functional composition, etc., have been proposed to provide higher functionality.

As one of the above-mentioned high functions, for example, a function of preventing the adhesion of contents such as a liquid, a semi-solid, or a gel substance to the inner surface of the packaging material, i.e., preventing the contents from remaining inside the packaging material, is required. More specifically, container lid materials for yogurt, jelly, and syrup, retort food packaging materials for porridge, soup, curry, and pasta sauce, and film materials for storage containers of liquids, semi-solids, gel substances of chemicals and pharmaceuticals, are required to have high liquid repellency capable of preventing the contents from adhering to the inner surface and ending up as waste without full use, preventing stains due to adhesion of the contents, and eliminating time-consuming discharging of the contents.

Responding to these requirements, for example, in Patent Literature <NUM>, a water-repellent packaging material with an inner surface having a silicone resin composition layer containing hydrophobic fine particles such as silicone particles is proposed. Further, in Patent Literature <NUM>, a packaging material having water repellency against contents and mold releasability, with a resin layer including spherical silicon as the innermost layer, is proposed.

<CIT> (Art. <NUM>(<NUM>) EPC) relates to a liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition comprising a polyolefin resin (A), a silylated polyolefin (B), and a compatibilizer (C) having a site compatible with the polyolefin resin (A) and a site compatible with the silylated polyolefin (B), wherein a polyolefin site of the silylated polyolefin (B) is incompatible with the polyolefin resin (A).

As a material for the resin layer of the inner surface of packaging materials, a polyolefin resin such as polyethylene and polypropylene is used to impart functions such as heat sealability, heat resistance, and impact resistance. Even a polyolefin resin adding the above silicone particles to impart liquid repellency, however, easily causes aggregation of the silicone particles in the resin layer and separation of the silicone particles from the resin layer, having insufficient effect to prevent the adhesion of contents to the inner surface of the packaging material.

In view of the conventional art having the above problems, it is an object of the present disclosure to provide a resin composition from which a liquid-repellent layer having excellent liquid repellency capable of sufficiently preventing adhesion of the contents can be formed, and a liquid-repellent film, a liquid-repellent laminate, a packaging material, and a container using the same.

In order to achieve the above objects, the present disclosure provides a liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition comprising a polypropylene resin (A) and a silylated polyolefin (B), wherein the above polypropylene resin (A) comprises a random polypropylene resin (A1) and a block polypropylene resin (A2) with a mass ratio (Mass of random polypropylene resin (A1)/Mass of block polypropylene resin (A2)) in the range of <NUM>/<NUM> to <NUM>/<NUM>.

According to the above liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, by the combination use of a polypropylene resin (A) and a silylated polyolefin (B) as a component for imparting liquid repellency to a liquid-repellent layer, with the polypropylene resin (A) comprising a random polypropylene resin (A1) and a block polypropylene resin (A2) with a mass ratio in the range of <NUM>/<NUM> to <NUM>/<NUM>, a liquid-repellent layer having excellent liquid repellency capable of sufficiently preventing the adhesion of contents can be formed. The present inventors presume that the reason why the combination use of the random polypropylene resin (A1) and the block polypropylene resin (A2) with the above mass ratio exhibits the above effect as follows. Although a propylene resin (hereinafter, also referred to as "PP") is a hydrocarbon-based crystalline polymer, an amorphous portion is also present therein. On the other hand, an oil/fat contained in foods is a hydrocarbon compound, so that when a pouch filled with foods containing an oil/fat is subjected to heat treatment such as retort treatment, the amorphous portion having a low density in the PP contained in a liquid-repellent layer of the inner surface of the pouch tends to be swelled by the oil/fat. In contrast to this, the present inventors have found that through control of the mass ratio between the random PP (A1) and a block PP (A2), the crystallinity and melting point of the PP are controlled, so that the amount of oil swelling can be controlled. The present inventors have also found that through control of the above mass ratio, in forming of a liquid-repellent layer, the degree of precipitation of Si in the silylated polyolefin (B) on the surface of a liquid-repellent layer can be also controlled. According to the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition of the present disclosure, through control of the mass ratio between the random PP (A1) and the block PP (A2) in the above range, both of reduction in the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed and increase in the abundance of Si on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer can be achieved, so that excellent liquid repellency can be obtained. In the case where the proportion of the random PP (A1) is less than a mass ratio of <NUM>/<NUM>, the crystallinity and melting point of the PP increase and Si is unlikely to precipitate on the surface the liquid-repellent layer, resulting in reduction in liquid repellency and increase in the amount of residual liquid. On the other hand, in the case where the proportion of the random PP (A1) is more than a mass ratio of <NUM>/<NUM>, the crystallinity and melting point of the PP decrease, resulting in increase in the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer. The increase in the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer causes increase in the amount of residual liquid by that portion and segregation of a large amount of oil/fat on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer. As a result, Si is buried in the liquid-repellent layer to reduce the liquid repellency, so that the amount of residual liquid further increases.

In order to achieve the above objects, the above polypropylene resin (A) preferably has two or more endothermic peaks in the range of <NUM> to <NUM> in a melting curve in a second heating process obtained under measurement conditions where the following steps (<NUM>) to (<NUM>) are carried out sequentially, in differential scanning calorimetry of a measurement specimen of a liquid-repellent layer formed by using the above liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition:.

According to the above liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, due to the use of a polypropylene resin (A) and a silylated polyolefin (B) as a component for imparting liquid repellency to a liquid-repellent layer in combination, wherein the propylene resin (A) has two or more endothermic peaks in the range of <NUM> to <NUM> in the melting curve in the above second heating process, Si in the silylated polyolefin (B) easily segregates on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer, so that excellent liquid repellency capable of sufficiently preventing the adhesion of contents can be obtained. The present inventors presume the reason why the above effect is exhibited by the polypropylene resin (A) satisfying the above conditions as follows.

In the case where a polypropylene resin has only one endothermic peak in the range of <NUM> to <NUM> in the melting curve in the above second heating process, a single crystal phase is present to exhibit the following properties depending on the peak temperature. That is, in the case of a relatively low peak temperature, the polypropylene resin has a relatively low crystallinity, so that while Si in the silylated polyolefin (B) easily segregates on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer in forming of the liquid-repellent layer, the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed increases. The increase in the amount of oil swelling causes increase in the amount of residual liquid by that portion and segregation of a large amount of oil/fat on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer. As a result, Si is buried in the liquid-repellent layer to reduce the liquid repellency, so that the amount of residual liquid further increases. On the other hand, in the case of a relatively high peak temperature, the polypropylene resin has a relatively high crystallinity, so that while the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed can be reduced, Si is unlikely to segregate on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer, resulting in increase in the amount of residual liquid with reduction in the liquid repellency.

In contrast to this, the emergence of a plurality of endothermic peaks in the melting curve in the above second heating process means occurrence of fractional crystallization in the polypropylene resin. In other words, by cooling after the first heating process, a plurality of different crystal phases is formed in the polypropylene resin. Thereby, intermediate properties between those of the above polypropylene resins having only one endothermic peak at a relatively high temperature and at a relatively low temperature in the range of <NUM> to <NUM> can be exhibited. As a result, both of reduction in the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed and increase in the abundance of Si on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer can be achieved, so that excellent liquid repellency can be obtained.

The above liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition may have a difference in the peak temperature of <NUM> or more between the endothermic peak on the highest temperature side and the endothermic peak on the lowest temperature side in the range of <NUM> to <NUM> in the melting curve in the above second heating process. A difference between the above peak temperatures of <NUM> or more allows to achieve both of reduction in the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed and increase in the abundance of Si on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer at a higher level, so that more excellent liquid repellency can be obtained.

In the above liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, the above polypropylene resin (A) may have one or more endothermic peaks in the range of <NUM> or more and less than <NUM>, and one or more endothermic peaks in the range of <NUM> or more and <NUM> or less, in the melting curve in the above second heating process. Thereby, both of reduction in the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed and increase in the abundance of Si on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer are achieved at a higher level, so that more excellent liquid repellency can be obtained.

In the above liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, the above polypropylene resin (A) may comprise a first polypropylene resin (A1) (hereinafter also simply referred to as first polypropylene resin) and a second polypropylene resin (A2) (hereinafter also simply referred to as second polypropylene resin) having a melting point higher than that of the above first polypropylene resin by <NUM> or more. Inclusion of the first polypropylene resin and the second polypropylene resin having a melting point higher than that of the first polypropylene resin by <NUM> or more in a polypropylene resin (A) allows to achieve both of reduction in the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed and increase in the abundance of Si on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer at a higher level, so that more excellent liquid repellency can be obtained.

The above polypropylene resin (A) comprises a random polypropylene resin (A1) and a block polypropylene resin (A2) with a mass ratio (Mass of random polypropylene resin (A1)/Mass of block polypropylene resin (A2)) in the range of <NUM>/<NUM> to <NUM>/<NUM>. Inclusion of the random polypropylene resin (A1) and the block polypropylene resin (A2) with the above mass ratio in the polypropylene resin (A) allows to achieve both of reduction in the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed and increase in the abundance of Si on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer at a higher level, so that more excellent liquid repellency can be obtained.

The above liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition may further comprise a compatibilizer (C) having a site compatible with the above polypropylene resin (A) and a site compatible with the above silylated polyolefin (B). By use of the compatibilizer (C), the dispersibility of the silylated polyolefin (B) is improved, so that liquid repellency can be more efficiently imparted to the liquid-repellent layer to be formed.

In the above liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, the above compatibilizer (C) may comprise at least one selected from the group consisting of a block copolymer of propylene and ethylene and a block copolymer of ethylene and an ethylene-butylene copolymer. By using these compatibilizers (C), the dispersibility of the silylated polyolefin (B) is further improved, so that liquid repellency can be furthermore efficiently imparted to the liquid-repellent layer to be formed.

In the above liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, the mass ratio of the content of the above compatibilizer (C) to the content of the above silylated polyolefin (B), (Mass of compatibilizer (C)/Mass of silylated polyolefin (B)), may be <NUM> to <NUM>. With a content ratio in the above range, the dispersibility of the silylated polyolefin (B) is further improved, so that liquid repellency can be furthermore efficiently imparted to the liquid-repellent layer to be formed.

The above liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition may further comprise a silicone (D). By further comprising a silicone (D), the amount of Si present in the surface of the liquid-repellent layer to be formed can be increased, and thereby liquid repellency can be further improved.

The present disclosure also provides a liquid-repellent film having a liquid-repellent layer formed by using the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition of the above present disclosure. The liquid-repellent film has the liquid-repellent layer formed by using the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition of the above present disclosure, so that the adhesion of the contents to the liquid-repellent layer can be sufficiently prevented. Further, the above liquid-repellent film exhibits excellent liquid repellency against not only water and oil, but also against oil dispersed in water-type contents such as curry and pasta sauce.

In the above liquid-repellent film, the above liquid-repellent layer may have a crystallinity represented by the following equation (I) of <NUM> to <NUM>%:
[Equation <NUM>] <MAT>.

A crystallinity of the liquid-repellent layer in the above range allows both of reduction in the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer and precipitation of Si on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer to be achieved with a good balance, and the liquid repellency can be furthermore improved.

The above liquid-repellent film may further comprise one or more resin layers disposed on one main surface of the above liquid-repellent layer. The multi-layered structure of the liquid-repellent film having a resin layer other than the liquid-repellent layer enables to impart further functionalities (heat resistance, impact resistance, etc.) in addition to liquid repellency. Further, the liquid-repellent layer can be thinned with cost reduced.

In the case where the liquid-repellent film comprises a resin layer other than the liquid-repellent layer, the melting point T<NUM> (°C) of the above polypropylene resin (A) in the above liquid-repellent layer and the melting point T<NUM> (°C) of the resin contained in a resin layer in contact with the above liquid-repellent layer among the above one or more resin layers may satisfy a relation: T<NUM><T<NUM>. The satisfaction of the above relation enables to suppress the migration of the silylated polyolefin (B) in the liquid-repellent layer to the second resin layer from the viewpoint of the crystallinity so as to localize the silylated polyolefin (B) on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer or to improve the bleed-out efficiency, so that the liquid-repellency tends to be further improved.

The present disclosure also provides a liquid-repellent laminate comprising a base material and the liquid-repellent film of the above present disclosure disposed on the base material, wherein the above liquid-repellent layer is disposed on at least one outermost surface. The liquid-repellent laminate comprises the liquid-repellent film of the above present disclosure, so that the adhesion of the contents to the liquid-repellent layer can be sufficiently prevented. Further, lamination of the liquid-repellent film on a base material having a desired function enables to impart mechanical strength and functions such as barrier properties and light-shielding properties to the liquid-repellent laminate.

The above liquid-repellent laminate may be one having an amount of oil swelling per unit area of the liquid-repellent laminate of <NUM>/cm<NUM> or less after the liquid-repellent laminate in a bag shape with a liquid-repellent layer as an inner surface is filled with a cooking oil such that the oil comes in contact with the whole of the above inner surface, hermetically sealed, and subjected to heating and pressurization treatment with steam under conditions of a temperature of <NUM>, a pressure of <NUM> MPa, and <NUM> minutes. The liquid-repellent laminate satisfying the conditions is able to have more excellent liquid repellency, enabling to prevent the adhesion of the contents more sufficiently.

The present disclosure also provides a packaging material formed by using the liquid-repellent laminate of the above present disclosure. The packaging material is formed by using the liquid-repellent laminate of the above present disclosure, so that the adhesion of the contents to the liquid-repellent layer can be sufficiently prevented.

The above packaging material may be one for use involving being subjected to heat treatment at <NUM> or more. According to the packaging material of the present embodiment, even in such a use, the adhesion of the contents to the inner surface of the packaging material can be prevented after heat treatment.

The present disclosure further provides a container having a liquid-repellent layer formed by using the resin composition of the above present disclosure at least on the inner surface. The container comprises the liquid-repellent layer formed by using the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition of the above present disclosure, so that the adhesion of the contents to the liquid-repellent layer can be sufficiently prevented.

According to the present disclosure, a resin composition from which a liquid-repellent layer having excellent liquid repellency capable of sufficiently preventing adhesion of the contents can be formed, and a liquid-repellent film, a liquid-repellent laminate, a packaging material, and a container using the same can be provided.

The preferred embodiment of the present disclosure is described in detail with reference to drawings as follows. Incidentally, the same symbol is added to the same or equivalent part in the drawing, and redundant explanation is omitted. The dimensional ratio in the drawing is not limited to the proportion shown in the drawing.

The liquid-repellent laminate of the present embodiment comprises a base material and a liquid-repellent film disposed on the base material, and has a structure in which a liquid-repellent layer is disposed on at least one outermost surface. <FIG> and <FIG> are schematic cross-sectional views showing a liquid-repellent laminate of the present embodiment. The liquid-repellent laminate of the present embodiment may have a structure with a liquid-repellent film <NUM> consisting of a liquid-repellent layer <NUM> laminated with a base material <NUM> through an adhesive <NUM> as with a liquid-repellent laminate <NUM> shown in <FIG>. Alternatively, the liquid-repellent laminate of the present embodiment may have a structure with a liquid-repellent film <NUM> consisting of a liquid-repellent layer <NUM> and a second resin layer <NUM> laminated with a base material <NUM> through an adhesive <NUM> as with a liquid-repellent laminate <NUM> shown in <FIG>. In the case where the liquid-repellent film <NUM> comprises the second resin layer <NUM>, the second resin layer <NUM> is disposed to oppose the base material <NUM>, such that the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> of the liquid-repellent film <NUM> is located at the outermost surface of the liquid-repellent laminate <NUM>.

The liquid-repellent layer <NUM> is a layer having liquid repellency. The liquid-repellent layer <NUM> may be a layer that can exhibit heat sealability by heating. In the present specification, the liquid repellency is a concept including both characteristics of water repellency and oil repellency, and specifically, being characteristics of repelling water-based or oil-based materials in a liquid state, semi-solid state or gel state. Examples of the water-based or oil-based materials include foods such as water, oil, yogurt, jelly, pudding, syrup, rice porridge, soup, curry, and pasta sauce, detergents such as hand soap and shampoo, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and chemicals. The heat sealability refers to characteristics enabling heat sealing, for example, under conditions at <NUM> to <NUM>, under <NUM> to <NUM> MPa, for <NUM> to <NUM> seconds. The conditions for heat sealing can be easily changed depending on the conditions required for heat sealing of a liquid-repellent laminate.

The thickness of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> is preferably <NUM> to <NUM>, more preferably <NUM> to <NUM>, still more preferably <NUM> to <NUM>, particularly preferably <NUM> to <NUM>. With a thickness of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> equal to or more than the above lower limit, excellent liquid repellency and heat sealability tend to be easily obtained. On the other hand, with a thickness equal to or less than the above upper limit, the total thickness of the liquid-repellent layer can be thinned.

The liquid-repellent layer <NUM> can be formed by using a liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition comprising the following components. The liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition is described as follows.

The liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition in an embodiment of the present disclosure contains a polypropylene resin (A) (hereinafter also referred to as "component (A)") and a silylated polyolefin (B) (hereinafter also referred to as "component (B)"). The above polypropylene resin (A) satisfies at least the following first condition and preferably the following second condition.

First condition: The above resin (A) comprises a random polypropylene resin (A1) and a block polypropylene resin (A2) with a mass ratio (Mass of random polypropylene resin (A1)/Mass of block polypropylene resin (A2)) in the range of <NUM>/<NUM> to <NUM>/<NUM>.

Second condition: The above polypropylene resin (A), which is a blend of polypropylene resins having a different crystallinity being selected from blending of a random polypropylene resin and a block polypropylene resin, blending of a random polypropylene resin and a homo polypropylene resin, blending of two or more random polypropylene resins having a different melting point, and blending of two or more block polypropylene resins having a different melting point, has two or more endothermic peaks in the range of <NUM> to <NUM> in a melting curve in a second heating process obtained under measurement conditions where the following steps (<NUM>) to (<NUM>) are carried out sequentially, in differential scanning calorimetry of a measurement specimen of a liquid-repellent layer formed by using the above liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition:.

The liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition in the present embodiment may further comprise one or both of a compatibilizer (C) having a site compatible with the above polypropylene resin (A) and a site compatible with the above silylated polyolefin (B) and a silicone (D).

The polypropylene resin (PP) includes at least a block polypropylene and a random polypropylene, and may further include a homo polypropylene and a copolymer of an α-olefin other than ethylene and propylene and propylene (propylene-based copolymer). Examples of the α-olefin component include <NUM>-butene, <NUM>-pentene, <NUM>-hexene, <NUM>-heptene, <NUM>-octene, and <NUM>-methyl-<NUM>-pentene. The block polypropylene in the present specification is different from an ethylene-propylene block copolymer which is a compatibilizer (C) described later, and generally has a structure with EPR (rubber component) and polyethylene dispersed in a homo polypropylene at the polymerization stage. By using such a polypropylene resin, the liquid-repellent laminate is able to be suitably used as packaging materials for retort foods subjected to heat treatment such as warming in hot water, easily preventing a bag-shaped packaging material from bursting during heat treatment such as warming in hot water.

In the present embodiment, the polypropylene resin satisfies the above first condition by comprising at least a random polypropylene resin (A1) and a block polypropylene resin (A2) with a mass ratio (Mass of random polypropylene resin (A1)/Mass of block polypropylene resin (A2)) in the range of <NUM>/<NUM> to <NUM>/<NUM> (<NUM> to <NUM>). The above mass ratio is preferably <NUM>/<NUM> to <NUM>/<NUM> (<NUM> to <NUM>), more preferably <NUM>/<NUM> to <NUM>/<NUM> (<NUM> to <NUM>), still more preferably <NUM>/<NUM> to <NUM>/<NUM> (<NUM> to <NUM>). With a mass ratio equal to or more than the above lower limit, the crystallinity and melting point of the polypropylene resin can be sufficiently reduced, so that Si easily precipitates (segregates) on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer to be formed so as to improve the liquid repellency. On the other hand, with a mass ratio equal to or less than the above upper limit, the crystallinity and melting point of the polypropylene resin can be sufficiently increased, so that the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed can be reduced. In the case where the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer is low, both of reduction in the amount of residual liquid by that portion and reduction in the abundance of oil/fat on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer can be achieved, so that Si easily precipitates on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer to improve the liquid repellency.

In the present embodiment, the polypropylene resin preferably satisfies the above second condition by having two or more endothermic peaks in the range of <NUM> to <NUM> in the melting curve in a second heating process in the measurement under the above conditions. The emergence of a plurality of the endothermic peaks in the melting curve in the second heating process means occurrence of fractional crystallization of the polypropylene resin which can be achieved by blending of polypropylene resins having a different crystallinity. Thereby, different crystal phases can be formed through cooling after a first heating process. More specifically, a random polypropylene resin and a block polypropylene resin are blended.

It is preferable that the polypropylene resin satisfying the above second condition comprises a first polypropylene resin and a second polypropylene resin having a melting point higher than the melting point of the first polypropylene resin by <NUM> or more. The difference in the melting point between the second polypropylene resin and the first polypropylene resin is more preferably <NUM> or more, still more preferably <NUM> or more, particularly preferably <NUM> or more, extremely preferably <NUM> or more. With a difference in the melting point equal to or more than the above lower limit, both of reduction in the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed and increase in the abundance of Si on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer can be achieved at a higher level, so that more excellent liquid repellency can be obtained. Incidentally, in the case where the polypropylene resin comprises three or more polypropylene resins, the difference in the melting point between the polypropylene resin having a highest melting point and the polypropylene having a lowest melting point in the above range is acceptable.

The polypropylene resin satisfying the above second condition comprises the above first polypropylene resin and the above second polypropylene resin with a mass ratio (Mass of first polypropylene resin/Mass of second polypropylene resin) in the range of <NUM>/<NUM> to <NUM>/<NUM> (<NUM> to <NUM>). The above mass ratio is more preferably <NUM>/<NUM> to <NUM>/<NUM> (<NUM> to <NUM>), still more preferably <NUM>/<NUM> to <NUM>/<NUM> (<NUM> to <NUM>), particularly preferably <NUM>/<NUM> to <NUM>/<NUM> (<NUM> to <NUM>). With a mass ratio equal to or more than the above lower limit, Si more easily segregates on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer to be formed, so that the liquid repellency can be further improved. On the other hand, with a mass ratio equal to or less than the above upper limit, the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed can be further reduced. In the case where the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer is low, both of reduction in the amount of residual liquid by that portion and reduction in the abundance of oil/fat on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer can be achieved, so that Si more easily precipitates on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer to further improve the liquid repellency.

The above first polypropylene resin is a random polypropylene resin (A1), and the above second polypropylene resin is a block polypropylene resin (A2). It may be confirmed that the polypropylene resin comprises a random polypropylene resin (A1) and a block polypropylene resin (A2) by infrared (IR) spectroscopic analysis of the resulting liquid-repellent layer.

In the melting curve in the above second heating process, the number of the endothermic curves observed in the range of <NUM> to <NUM> is <NUM> or more, or may be <NUM> or more. Also, the number of the above endothermic curves may be <NUM> or less, or may be <NUM> or less. In the case where the number of the endothermic curves is in the above range, the liquid-repellent layer to be formed has excellent liquid repellency.

In the melting curve in the above second heating process, a difference between the peak temperature of the endothermic peak on the highest temperature side and the peak temperature of the endothermic peak on the lowest temperature side in the range of <NUM> to <NUM> is preferably <NUM> or more, more preferably <NUM> or more, still more preferably <NUM> or more. A difference between the peak temperatures equal to or more than the above lower limit allows to achieve both of reduction in the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed and increase in the abundance of Si on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer at a higher level, so that more excellent liquid repellency can be obtained.

It is preferable that the melting curve in the above second heating process have one or more endothermic peaks in the range of <NUM> or more and less than <NUM>, and one or more endothermic peaks in the range of <NUM> or more and <NUM> or less. Thereby, both of reduction in the amount of oil swelling in the liquid-repellent layer to be formed and increase in the abundance of Si on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer can be achieved at a higher level, so that more excellent liquid repellency can be obtained.

The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) may be performed in accordance with JIS K7121-<NUM> except that heating and cooling are performed under the conditions shown in the above (<NUM>) to (<NUM>). As the measurement specimen (test piece), a liquid-repellent layer formed of a film of liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition may be used.

The polypropylene resin satisfying the above first condition and/or second condition may be a modified polypropylene modified with a predetermined acid. The modified polypropylene is obtained by graft-modifying a polypropylene with an unsaturated carboxylic acid derivative component derived from, for example, an unsaturated carboxylic acid, an unsaturated carboxylic acid anhydride, and an ester of an unsaturated carboxylic acid. Alternatively, modified polypropylenes such as a hydroxyl group-modified polypropylene and an acrylic-modified polypropylene may be also used as the polypropylene resin.

The random polypropylene resin (A1) and the block polypropylene resin (A2) described above may be used alone, or two or more thereof may be used in combination.

The liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition of the present embodiment may comprise a polyolefin resin other than the polypropylene resin. Examples of the other polyolefin resin include a low density polyethylene, a medium density polyethylene, a high density polyethylene, and an ethylene-oc-olefin copolymer. Examples of the oc-olefin component include <NUM>-butene, <NUM>-pentene, <NUM>-hexene, <NUM>-heptene, <NUM>-octene, and <NUM>-methyl-<NUM>-pentene. The copolymer may be a random copolymer or a block copolymer. In addition to the above, the polyolefin resin may be a cyclic polyolefin such as polynorbornene. The above polyolefin resin may be a linear polyolefin from the viewpoint of sealability and strength properties (tensile strength, impact strength, etc.), and the linear polyolefin may be in a linear form or a branched form.

The melting point of the polyolefin resin may be appropriately adjusted depending on the end use. For example, it is preferable that the melting point of the polyolefin resin for use as a packaging material for retort foods be <NUM> to <NUM>.

The polyolefin resin may be a modified polyolefin modified with a predetermined acid. The modified polyolefin is obtained by graft-modifying a polyolefin with an unsaturated carboxylic acid derivative component derived from, for example, an unsaturated carboxylic acid, an unsaturated carboxylic acid anhydride, and an ester of an unsaturated carboxylic acid. Alternatively, modified polyolefins such as a hydroxyl group-modified polyolefin and an acrylic-modified polyolefin also may be used as the polyolefin resin.

One of the polyolefin resins described above may be used alone, or two or more thereof may be used in combination.

The silylated polyolefin is a component to impart liquid repellency to the liquid-repellent layer <NUM>. The silylated polyolefin includes a polyolefin unit having a silicone site.

Examples of the silylated polyolefin include a product manufactured by Dow Coming Toray Co. , as a PE-Si graft copolymer, Exfola manufactured by Mitsui Fine Chemicals, Inc. , as a PE-Si block copolymer, and a product manufactured by Dow Coming Toray Co. , as a PP-Si graft copolymer.

As the silylated polyolefin, a block copolymer is more preferred than a graft copolymer from the viewpoint of further improving the liquid repellency of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM>. The reason is that a block copolymer tends to be more easily localized or bleed out on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM>.

One of the silylated polyolefins described above may be used alone, or two or more thereof may be used in combination.

The silylated polyolefin may have a polyolefin site compatible or not compatible (incompatible) with the polypropylene resin (A). In the case of using a silylated polyolefin having a polyolefin site incompatible with the polypropylene resin (A), however, use in combination with the following compatibilizer (C) is preferable. In the case of using a silylated polyolefin having a polyolefin site incompatible with the polypropylene resin (A), combination options for materials of the polypropylene resin (A) and the silylated polyolefin (B) increase, so that there exist advantages that design corresponding to a purpose and use is possible and liquid-repellency tends to be further improved. Examples of the silylated polyolefin having a polyolefin site compatible with the polypropylene resin (A) include a PP-Si graft copolymer, and examples of the silylated polyolefin having a polyolefin site incompatible with the polypropylene resin (A) include a PE-Si graft copolymer and a PE-Si block copolymer.

A compatibilizer is preferably used in the case where a silylated polyolefin having a polyolefin site incompatible with the polypropylene resin (A) is used as the silylated polyolefin (B). A compatibilizer is a component having a site compatible with the polypropylene resin (A) and a site compatible with the above silylated polyolefin (B). Use of the compatibilizer enables to improve the compatibility between the silylated polyolefin (B) having a polyolefin site incompatible with the polypropylene resin (A) and the polypropylene resin (A).

Examples of the site compatible with the polypropylene resin (A) include a polyolefin structure compatible with the polypropylene resin (A), preferably being a site having the same type of polyolefin structure as the polypropylene resin (A). In other words, it is preferable that the compatibilizer (C) has a polypropylene structure. Also, in the case where the polypropylene resin (A) is a copolymer consisting of two or more types of olefins such as a propylene-α-olefin copolymer, it is preferable that the compatibilizer (C) has at least a structure in which the same type of olefin as the main component olefin among olefins to constitute the above copolymer is polymerized or copolymerized.

Examples of the site compatible with the silylated polyolefin (B) include a polyolefin structure compatible with the polyolefin site of the silylated polyolefin (B), and a site having the same type of polyolefin structure as the polyolefin site of the silylated polyolefin (B) is preferred. In other words, in the case where the polyolefin site of the silylated polyolefin (B) has a polyethylene structure, it is preferable that the compatibilizer (C) has a polyethylene structure. Also, in the case where the polyolefin site of the silylated polyolefin (B) has a structure based on a copolymer consisting of two or more types of olefins such as an ethylene-α-olefin copolymer and a propylene-α-olefin copolymer, it is preferable that the compatibilizer (C) has at least a structure in which the same type of olefin as the main component olefin among olefins to constitute the above copolymer is polymerized or copolymerized.

As the compatibilizer (C), for example, a block copolymer constituting a polyethylene unit composed of a polyethylene or an ethylene-α-olefin copolymer and a polypropylene unit composed of a polypropylene or a propylene-α-olefin copolymer, or a block copolymer constituting a polyethylene unit and an ethylene-butylene copolymer unit may be used. Such a block copolymer may have any one of the structures of a diblock copolymer, a triblock copolymer, and a multiblock copolymer. In this case, the polypropylene resin (A) is compatible with a polypropylene site (polypropylene unit) or an ethylene-butylene copolymer site (ethylene-butylene copolymer unit) of the compatibilizer (C), and a polyethylene site (polyethylene unit) of the silylated polyolefin (B) is compatible with a polyethylene site (polyethylene unit) of the compatibilizer (C).

One type of the above compatibilizers may be used alone, or two or more types thereof may be used in combination.

Silicone is a component to further improve the liquid repellency of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM>. Examples of the silicone include a silicone oil, a silicone resin, a silicone oligomer, and a silicone powder. Among them, a silicone oil is preferred since more excellent liquid repellency tends to be easily obtained.

Examples of the silicone oil include a dimethyl silicone oil, a methylphenyl silicone oil, a methyl hydrogen silicone oil, a cyclic dimethyl silicone oil, an alkyl-modified silicone oil, a long-chain alkyl-modified silicone oil, and a higher fatty acid-modified silicone oil.

Examples of the silicone oil include products manufactured by Asahi Kasei Wacker Silicone Co. , products manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co. , products manufactured by Momentive Performance Materials, Inc. , and products manufactured by Dow Coming Toray Co.

Examples of the silicone resin include products manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co. , and products manufactured by Asahi Kasei Wacker Silicone Co.

Examples of the silicone oligomer include products manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co. , and products manufactured by Dow Coming Toray Co.

Examples of the silicone powder include products manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co. , and products manufactured by Dow Coming Toray Co.

One of the silicones described above may be used alone, or two or more thereof may be used in combination.

The content of the component (A) in the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition is preferably <NUM> to <NUM> mass%, more preferably <NUM> to <NUM> mass%, still more preferably <NUM> to <NUM> mass%, relative to the total solid content of the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition. With a content of the component (A) equal to or more than the above lower limit, excellent heat sealability tends to be easily obtained. On the other hand, in the case where the content of the component (A) is equal to or less than the above upper limit, the content of the component (B) and the content of the component (C) and the component (D) that are used on an as needed basis relatively increase, so that the liquid repellency tends to be improved.

The total content of the component (B) and the component (C) in the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition is preferably <NUM> to <NUM> mass%, more preferably <NUM> to <NUM> mass%, still more preferably <NUM> to <NUM> mass%, relative to the total solid content of the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition. With a total content of the component (B) and the component (C) equal to or more than the above lower limit, liquid repellency tends to be easily improved. On the other hand, with a total content of the component (B) and the component (C) equal to or less than the above upper limit, the content of the component (A) increases relatively, so that the excellent heat sealability tends to be easily obtained.

In the case where the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition comprises the component (C), the mass ratio of the content of the component (C) to the content of the component (B), (Mass of component (C)/Mass of component (B)), may be <NUM> to <NUM>, preferably <NUM> to <NUM>, more preferably <NUM> to <NUM>, still more preferably <NUM> to <NUM>. With a content ratio equal to or more than the above lower limit, the silylated polyolefin (B) is sufficiently dispersed in the liquid-repellent layer, so that more excellent liquid repellency tends to be obtainable. On the other hand, with a content ratio equal to or less than the above upper limit, the silylated polyolefin (B) is prevented from being covered with the excessive compatibilizer (C), so that more excellent liquid-repellency tends to be obtainable. Also, even with addition of the compatibilizer (C) with a content ratio of more than the above upper limit, the silylated polyolefin (B) is not further dispersed, so that the effect to improve the liquid repellency tends to disappear.

In the case where the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition comprises the component (D), the content is preferably <NUM> to <NUM> mass%, more preferably <NUM> to <NUM> mass%, still more preferably <NUM> to <NUM> mass%, relative to the total amount of the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition. With a total content of the component (D) equal to or more than the above lower limit, the liquid repellency tends to be easily improved. On the other hand, with a total content of the component (D) equal to or less than the above upper limit, the content of the component (A) increases relatively, so that excellent heat sealability tends to be easily obtained. Also, with a content of the component (D) of more than the above upper limit, separation of the component (D) from the liquid-repellent layer tends to easily occur.

The liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition may comprise other additives on an as needed basis, within a range not to impair the liquid repellency. Examples of the other additives include flame retardants, slip agents, antiblocking agents, antioxidants, light stabilizers, and tackifiers.

The liquid-repellent layer <NUM> may be formed by forming a film of the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition.

The liquid-repellent layer <NUM> may have a crystallinity represented by the following equation (I) of <NUM> to <NUM>%, which is measured by X-ray diffraction under conditions of an incident angle of <NUM>° and a measurement angle of <NUM> to <NUM>°. The X-ray diffraction measurement may be performed by the parallel method using CuKoc radiation as X-ray source. The peak areas of the crystal portion and the amorphous portion may be calculated from the measured X-ray diffraction spectrum using an analysis software. Through the X-ray diffraction measurement by the parallel method with the above incident angle and measurement angle, the crystallinity of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> near the surface, which has a large impact on the liquid repellency, may be measured. With a crystallinity of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> of <NUM>% or more, oil is unlikely to be introduced into the liquid-repellent layer <NUM>, so that the amount of oil swelling can be reduced, resulting in further reduction in the amount of residual liquid. With a crystallinity of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> of <NUM>% or less, it is difficult to inhibit the precipitation of Si on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM>, so that Si segregates on the surface and liquid repellency tends to further improve. Incidentally, the crystallinity of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> of the present specification is measured before heat treatment such as retort treatment. The crystallinity of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> may be measured in a state of the liquid-repellent film <NUM> or in a state of the liquid-repellent laminate <NUM>. Although the crystallinity of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> measured in the state of the liquid-repellent laminate <NUM> may change from the crystallinity measured in the state of the liquid-repellent film <NUM> in some cases due to the additional amount of heat applied to the liquid-repellent film <NUM> during preparation of the liquid-repellent laminate <NUM>, it is preferable that the crystallinity be in the range of <NUM> to <NUM>% in measurement in any one of the state. Alternatively, the crystallinity may be measured by differential scanning calorimetry, or infrared spectroscopy, other than X-ray diffraction. [Equation <NUM>] <MAT>.

The crystallinity of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> may be controlled by the composition of the polypropylene resin (A), the amount of heat applied to the liquid-repellent layer <NUM>, etc. In the case of control by the composition of the polypropylene resin (A), as the block polypropylene resin (A2) has a higher crystallinity than the random polypropylene resin (A1), the crystallinity can be increased by increasing the proportion of the block polypropylene resin (A2). On the other hand, examples of the method for controlling the amount of heat include controlling the film formation conditions of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM>. Specific examples of the film formation include the line speed, the film formation temperature, the cooling temperature, and the cooling method. For example, in the case of controlling the cooling temperature, the crystallinity may be improved by gradual cooling with an increased cooling temperature.

The second resin layer <NUM> is a layer disposed between the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> and the base material <NUM>, in order to improve the heat sealability, heat resistance, the impact resistance, oxygen/water vapor barrier properties, etc. It is preferable that the second resin layer <NUM> comprise a thermoplastic resin having heat sealability.

The thermoplastic resin used for the second resin layer <NUM> is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a polyolefin resin, an ethylene-oc, β-unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer or an esterified product or an ionically cross-linked product thereof, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer or a saponified product thereof, a polyvinyl acetate or saponified product thereof, a polycarbonate resin, a thermoplastic polyester resin, an ABS resin, a polyacetal resin, a polyamide resin, a polyphenylene oxide resin, a polyimide resin, a polyurethane resin, a polylactic acid resin, a furan resin, and a silicone resin. One of these thermoplastic resins may be used alone or two or more thereof may be used in combination.

It is preferable that the thermoplastic resin described above fur use in the second resin layer <NUM> comprise a polyolefin resin for easy improvement in heat sealability, heat resistance and impact resistance. As the polyolefin resin, one similar to the polypropylene resin (A) for use in the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> may be used.

In the case where the second resin layer <NUM> is in contact with the liquid-repellent layer <NUM>, it is preferable that the melting point T<NUM> (°C) of the polypropylene resin (A) in the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> and the melting point T<NUM> (°C) of the above thermoplastic resin in the second resin layer <NUM> satisfy a relation: T<NUM><T<NUM>. The satisfaction of the above relation enables to suppress the migration of the silylated polyolefin (B) in the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> to the second resin layer <NUM> from the viewpoint of the degree of crystallinity so as to localize the silylated polyolefin (B) on the surface of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> or to improve the bleed-out efficiency, so that the liquid-repellency tends to be further improved. From the same viewpoint, the melting point T<NUM> is higher than the melting point T<NUM> preferably by <NUM> or more, more preferably by <NUM> or more.

The melting point T<NUM> is the melting point of the polypropylene resin (A) measured in the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> as measurement specimen. Also, the melting point T<NUM> is the melting point of the resin measured in the second resin layer <NUM> as measurement specimen. In the case where the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> contains two or more polypropylene resins having a different melting point as the polypropylene resin (A), the melting point T<NUM> represents the melting point of a polypropylene resin that melts at the lowest temperature in the liquid-repellent layer <NUM>. The melting point T<NUM>, however, is affected by other polypropylene resins, being different from the measured melting point of a single polypropylene resin. The melting point T<NUM> of the polypropylene resin (A) in the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> and the melting point T<NUM> of the resin in the second resin layer <NUM> may be measured by a thermal analyzer (e.g., TA7000 manufactured by Hitachi High-Tech Science Corporation).

The thickness of the second resin layer <NUM> may be appropriately set depending on the end use of a commercial product made from the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition. For example, the thickness of the second resin layer <NUM> is preferably <NUM> to <NUM>, more preferably <NUM> to <NUM>, still more preferably <NUM> to <NUM>, particularly preferably <NUM> to <NUM>.

The liquid-repellent film <NUM> having liquid repellency is formed of a single layer of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> or two layers of the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> and the second resin layer <NUM> described above. The liquid-repellent film <NUM> is formed to cover a part or the whole of the surface of the base material <NUM>. Incidentally, the liquid-repellent film <NUM> may be used alone, without lamination to the base material <NUM> depending on use.

The liquid-repellent film <NUM> may further comprise one or more resin layers other than the liquid-repellent layer <NUM> and the second resin layer <NUM>. The composition of the other resin layers may be the same as the composition of the second resin layer <NUM> or may be different therefrom.

The base material <NUM> is not particularly limited as long as it can be used as a support, and examples thereof include paper, a resin film, and a metal foil. Examples of the paper include wood-free paper, wood-free specialty paper, coated paper, art paper, cast-coated paper, imitation vellum, and kraft paper. Examples of the resin film include a film comprising at least one of polyolefin (e.g. polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP)), acid-modified polyolefin, polyester (e.g. polyethylene terephthalate (PET)), polyamide (PA), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), cellulose acetate, and cellophane resin. The film may be a stretched film or an unstretched film. Examples of the metal foil include an aluminum foil and a nickel foil. The base material <NUM> may be a laminate of a plurality of base materials made of different materials.

The thickness of the base material <NUM> may be appropriately adjusted depending on use without particular limitation, being usually <NUM> to <NUM>, preferably <NUM> to <NUM>.

Examples of the method for laminating the base material <NUM> with the liquid-repellent film <NUM> include a lamination method using an adhesive and a lamination method by heat treatment to be described below, though not limited thereto.

As the lamination method using an adhesive, various known lamination method such as dry laminating, wet laminating and nonsolvent laminating may be used. Examples of the adhesive <NUM> for use in these lamination methods include the following.

The adhesive <NUM> bonds the liquid-repellent film <NUM> to the base material <NUM>. Examples of the adhesive <NUM> include a polyurethane resin obtained by reacting a bifunctional or higher functional isocyanate compound with a main agent such as polyester polyol, polyether polyol, acrylic polyol, and carbonate polyol. One of the various polyols described above may be used alone, or two or more thereof may be used in combination.

To the adhesive <NUM> of the polyurethane resin described above, a carbodiimide compound, an oxazoline compound, an epoxy compound, a phosphorus compound, a silane coupling agent, or the like may be further added for the purpose of facilitating adhesion.

Alternatively, depending on the performance required for the adhesive <NUM>, other various additives or stabilizers may be added to the polyurethane resin described above.

The thickness of the adhesive <NUM> is, for example, preferably <NUM> to <NUM>, more preferably <NUM> to <NUM>, from the viewpoint of obtaining a desired adhesion strength, followability, processability, etc., though not particularly limited thereto.

The laminating methods by heat treatment are roughly classified into the following methods.

Examples of the adhesive resin for use in the lamination method by heat treatment include an acid-modified polyolefin. Although the base material <NUM> and the liquid-repellent film <NUM> are laminated by extrusion lamination in the method described above, it is also possible to perform lamination by applying an acid-modified polyolefin-based coating agent (dissolving-type or dispersion type) onto the base material <NUM> in advance and then heat-treating the liquid-repellent film <NUM> without performing extrusion lamination.

It is also possible to dispose an adhesive primer (anchor coating) on the base material <NUM>, as the material thereof, it is possible to use polyester, polyurethane, polyallylamine, polyethyleneimine, polybutadiene, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, chlorine-vinyl acetate, etc. To the adhesive primer, various curing agents and additives usable as the adhesive <NUM> may be added on an as needed basis.

It is preferable that the liquid-repellent laminate of the present embodiment have an amount of oil swelling per unit area of the liquid-repellent laminate of <NUM>/cm<NUM> or less after the liquid-repellent laminate in a bag shape with a liquid-repellent layer as an inner surface is filled with a cooking oil such that the oil comes in contact with the whole of the above inner surface, hermetically sealed, and subjected to heating and pressurization treatment with steam under conditions of a temperature of <NUM>, a pressure of <NUM> MPa, and <NUM> minutes. With an amount of oil swelling thus measured of <NUM>/cm<NUM> or less, the liquid-repellent laminate is able to have more excellent liquid repellency, enabling to further reduce the amount of residual liquid after discharge of the contents. From the same viewpoint, it is more preferable that the above amount of oil swelling be <NUM>/cm<NUM> or less. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of enhancing slidability of the contents, the liquid-repellent layer may be swelled to some extent by the oil/fat, and the above amount of oil swelling may be <NUM>/cm<NUM> or more.

The packaging material in the present embodiment is formed by using the liquid-repellent laminate described above. Examples of the packaging material include container lid materials for yogurt, jelly, and syrup, retort food packaging materials (retort pouch) for porridge, soup, curry, and pasta sauce. The packaging material is formed such that the liquid-repellent layer is disposed inside the packaging material (contents side), so that the contents such as liquids, semi-solids, and gel materials are prevented from adhering to the inside of the packaging material or remaining thereon. Also, a bag-shaped packaging material such as a packaging material for retort foods causes blocking of the innermost layers of the packaging material with each other, so that the contents are unlikely to be discharged in some cases. However, the packaging material in the present embodiment is unlikely to cause blocking of the liquid-repellent layers as innermost layers with each other, so that it is possible to efficiently discharge the contents.

The above packaging material may be one for use involving being subjected to heat treatment at <NUM> or more. Specifically, the packaging material may be for use as packaging materials for retort foods, subjected to heat treatment such as warming in hot water. Even when the packaging material in the present embodiment is used for such a use, the contents are prevented from adhering to the inside of the packaging material or remaining thereon after heat treatment.

The container in the present embodiment is a container having the liquid-repellent layer formed by using the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition described above at least on the inner surface (contents side). Specific examples of the container include a storage container of liquids, semi-solids, gel materials of chemicals and pharmaceuticals and a bottle accommodating hand soap, shampoo, etc. The container is formed such that the liquid-repellent layer is disposed on the inner surface (contents side) of the container, so that the contents such as liquids, semi-solids and gel materials are prevented from adhering to the inside of the container or remaining thereon.

The present disclosure is described in more detail based on Examples and Comparative Examples as follows, though the present disclosure is not limited to Examples described below.

A liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition was prepared in the same manner as in Example <NUM>.

A random polypropylene resin (A1) (propylene-ethylene random copolymer, trade name "Prime Polypro", manufactured by Prime Polymer Co. , melting point: <NUM> (catalog value)) as component (A) was used as a second liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition. Using a three-layer coextrusion machine, the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition and the second resin layer forming resin composition were coextruded to form a liquid-repellent film consisting of a liquid-repellent layer having a thickness of <NUM> and a second resin layer having a thickness of <NUM>. The second resin layer of the resulting liquid-repellent film and a PET film (trade name "Emblet", manufactured by Unitika Ltd. ) having a thickness of <NUM> as base material were dry laminated using a polyurethane adhesive (manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc. ) to obtain a liquid-repellent laminate.

A liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, a second liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, a liquid-repellent film and a liquid-repellent laminate were prepared in the same manner as in Example <NUM>, except that the mass ratio between r-PP and b-PP in the component (A) in the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition was changed as indicated in Table <NUM> and a block polypropylene resin (A2) (propylene-ethylene block copolymer, trade name "Novatec", manufactured by Japan Polypropylene Corporation, melting point: <NUM> to <NUM> (catalog value)) as component (A) was used as the second liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition.

A liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, a second liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, a liquid-repellent film and a liquid-repellent laminate were prepared in the same manner as in Example <NUM>, except that the component (C) or the component (C) and the component (D) indicated in Table <NUM> and Table <NUM> were added to a content indicated in the Tables to adjust the mass ratio between r-PP and b-PP in the component (A) to the value indicated in the Table.

A liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, a liquid-repellent film and a liquid-repellent laminate were prepared in the same manner as in Example <NUM>, except that component (B) was not added to the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition.

A liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, a liquid-repellent film and a liquid-repellent laminate were prepared in the same manner as in Example <NUM>, except that the mass ratio between r-PP and b-PP in the component (A) in the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition was changed as indicated in Table <NUM>.

A liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, a liquid-repellent film and a liquid-repellent laminate were prepared in the same manner as in Example <NUM>, except that the component (B) was not added to the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition.

A liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, a liquid-repellent film and a liquid-repellent laminate were prepared in the same manner as in Example <NUM>, except that the component (B) was not added to the liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition and the mass ratio between r-PP and b-PP in the component (A) was changed as indicated in Table <NUM>.

As an example having an enhanced crystallinity of the liquid-repellent layer in Example <NUM>, Example 3α was performed. In Example 3α, a liquid-repellent layer forming resin composition, a liquid-repellent film and a liquid-repellent laminate were prepared in the same manner as in the above Example <NUM>, except that during formation of the liquid-repellent layer, the surface temperature of the cooling roll for cooling the liquid-repellent layer extruded into a film was increased to gradually cool the liquid-repellent layer at a slower rate.

As examples having an enhanced crystallinity of the liquid-repellent layer, Example 8α to 119oc and 101β shown in Table <NUM> and Table <NUM> were performed. In these examples, the change is that the liquid-repellent layer was gradually cooled at a slower rate than that in examples having the same number without a subscript, in the same manner as in Examples 3α. Incidentally, in Example 101β, the cooling temperature during cooling of the liquid-repellent layer was further increased than in Example 101α in order to gradually cool the liquid-repellent layer at a further slower rate. In Table <NUM> and Table <NUM>, examples having the same number without a subscript α or β are also described for comparison purposes.

In Tables <NUM> to <NUM>, the mass ratio of the content of the component (C) to the content of the component (B), (Mass of component (C)/Mass of component (B)), in the liquid-repellent layer is shown. Also, in Tables <NUM> to <NUM>, the magnitude relation between the melting point T<NUM> (°C) of the resin as component (A) measured in the liquid-repellent layer and the melting point T<NUM> (°C) of the resin as component (A) used in the second resin layer is shown. In the case where the liquid-repellent layer contains r-PP and b-PP as the component (A), T<NUM> representing the melting point of r-PP that melts at low temperature in the liquid-repellent layer is affected by b-PP, being different from the measured melting point of the single r-PP. The melting point T<NUM> of the component (A) in the liquid-repellent layer and the melting point T<NUM> of the resin in the second resin layer were measured by a thermal analyzer (TA7000 manufactured by Hitachi High-Tech Science Corporation).

The liquid-repellent laminates obtained in Examples and Comparative Examples were subjected to evaluation on liquid repellency after retort treatment by the method shown in <FIG>. First, two sheets of samples <NUM> were prepared by cutting the liquid-repellent laminate into a length of <NUM> and a width of <NUM>. The two sheets of the samples <NUM> were superimposed such that each of the liquid-repellent layers was located inside. One edge side in the longitudinal direction and both two edge sides in the width direction were heat sealed over a width of <NUM> with a heat sealer under conditions of <NUM>, <NUM> MPa, and <NUM> seconds to form a seal part <NUM>, so that a pouch with an edge side in the longitudinal direction open was prepared (refer to <FIG>). Subsequently, <NUM> of an oil dispersed in water-type liquid <NUM> (trade name: "Bon Curry Gold, medium spicy", manufactured by Otsuka Foods Co. , amount of fat: <NUM> in <NUM>) was poured through the opening of the pouch (refer to <FIG>).
