Förpackningsmaterial och av materialet framställda förpackningar för ljuskänsliga produkter

摘要

The present invention provides a packaging material of single multi-layer type including at least one layer of plastic having improved light barrier properties, and which layer of plastic includes particles of carbon black and wherein the plastic layer containing the carbon black further includes mineral particles substantially uniformly distributed within the plastic material of that layer in a quantity between about 3% and 80% of the total weight of the layer. The packaging materials have superior light barrier properties over similar materials in the art, and can be used to enhance the packaging and storage of light-sensitive food products.
