Abstract

Provided is an outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging having an accommodating portion accommodating a disposable body warmer accommodated in an air-permeable inner bag and generating heat through contact with air, the outer bag comprising a low air-permeability portion having an oxygen permeability of 1.5 to 20 cc/m2·day·atm measured at 20° C. and 90% RH and having a water vapor permeability of 0.05 to 10 g/m2·day measured at 40° C. and 90% RH; and an air-impermeable portion having an oxygen permeability of 1.3 cc/m2·day·atm or lower measured at 20° C. and 90% RH and a water vapor permeability of 2.0 g/m2·day or lower measured at 40° C. and 90% RH, wherein a ratio of an area of the low air-permeability portion to a total internal area of the accommodating portion is 15 to 75%.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging having an accommodating potion accommodating a disposable body warmer accommodated in an air-permeable inner bag, the outer bag comprising:
a low air-permeability portion having an oxygen permeability of 1.5 to 20 cc/m 2 ·day·atm measured at 20° C. and 90% RH and a water vapor permeability of 0.05 to 10 g/m 2 ·day measured at 40° C. and 90% RH; and an air-impermeable portion having an oxygen permeability of 1.3 cc/m 2 ·day·atm or lower measured at 20° C. and 90% RH and a water vapor permeability of 2.0 g/m 2 ·day or lower measured at 40° C. and 90% RH, and
wherein a ratio of an area of the low air-permeability portion to a total internal area of the accommodating portion is 15 to 75%.

2. The outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging according to claim 1 , wherein a ratio of area of the low air-permeability portion to a total internal area of the accommodating portion is 50%.

3. The outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging according to claim 1 , wherein the outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging has at least one heat-sealed portion formed by heat-sealing one or more laminated sheets, and the low air-permeability portion is provided in at least a part of a region adjacent to the heat-sealed portion.

4. A disposable body warmer packaged by the outer bag according to claim 1 .

5. The outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging according to claim 1 , wherein the low air-permeability portion has a first substrate and a low air-permeability layer laminated on the first substrate, and the air-impermeable portion has a second substrate and an air-impermeable layer laminated on the second substrate, and the first substrate and the second substrate are heat-sealed.

6. The outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging according to claim 5 , wherein the low air-permeability layer comprises a homopolymer or copolymer of vinylidene chloride, and the air-impermeable layer contains a metal or metal oxide.

7. The outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging according to claim 1 , wherein a low air-permeability layer and an air-impermeable layer are provided on one sealant layer, and the low air-permeability portion has the low air-permeability layer, and the air-impermeable portion has the air-impermeable layer.

8. The outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging according to claim 7 , wherein the low air-permeability layer comprises a homopolymer or copolymer of vinylidene chloride, and the air-impermeable layer contains a metal or metal oxide.

9. The outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging according to claim 1 , wherein a low air-permeability layer and an air-impermeable layer are provided on one sealant layer, and the low air-permeability portion has the low air-permeability layer, and the air-impermeable portion has the low air-permeability layer and the air-impermeable layer.

10. The outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging according to claim 9 , wherein the low air-permeability layer comprises a homopolymer or copolymer of vinylidene chloride, and the air-impermeable layer contains a metal or metal oxide.
