FRESHNESS PRESERVATIVE PACKING MATERIAL FOR FOODSTUFFS AND METHOD OF FIXING THE FRESHNESS PRESERVATIVE SUBSTANCE ONTO THE PACKING MATERIAL

摘要

The present invention provides a packing material for packing boxes (1), packing bags and wrapping paper characterized in that over a surface of the packing materials, when packed, an air pervious tight coating (4) is formed partially or entirely between the contact surface of the wrapped contents, and the coating retains grains or minute perticles (2) of freshness preservative substance containing one or more of a far-infrared radioactive substance of about 3 SIMILAR 14 mu m wave length at normal temperature, a gas adsorptive substance and an oxygen reactive substance at the normal temperature. There is also disclosed a method of fixing the freshness preservative substance onto the packing material by printing, coating or spraying and then drying over a surface of the packing material that is to be contacted with the wrapped contents by a liquid dispersion wherein grains or minute particles of freshness preservative substance containing one or more of a far-infrared radioactive substance of about 3 SIMILAR 14 mu m wave length at normal temperature, a gas adsorptive substance and an oxygen reactive substance at the normal temperature are dispersed in a solution containing a coating formative substance.
