Multi-layer high moisture barrier polylactic acid film

摘要

A laminate film including a first core polylactic acid layer, a coating receiving-layer of polylactic acid, and coated on one side of the coating receiving-layer with PVOH, EVOH, a blend of crosslinked EVOH/PVOH, vinyl alcohol-vinylamine (PVAm) copolymer, anionic carboxylated styrene-butadiene copolymer (SBR) emulsion, or blends thereof. This coating may be applied after the machine-direction orientation step and dried and oriented in a transverse direction orientation oven if in-line coating is desired; or applied to the film in an off-line coating method and dried in an air flotation oven. The dried coating layer can be metallized. This laminate film exhibits excellent gas and moisture barrier properties, appearance, and metal adhesion. It may also optionally include a heat sealable or winding improving layer on the side opposite the coating receiving-layer of the core layer.

1. A laminate film comprising:
a multi-layer biaxially oriented polylactic acid film; a coating layer formed from a coating solution comprising vinyl alcohol-vinyl amine; and a metal layer applied by vacuum deposition on a surface of the coating layer, wherein the laminate film has a moisture transmission rate equal to or less than 0.15 g/100 in2/day.
