Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A laminated polyester film includes a pigment-containing polyester layer A and wax-containing polyester layers B1 and B2 on both sides of the polyester layer A, wherein the film satisfies formulae (I) and (II), and the coefficient of variation of water contact angle for each layer B1 and layer B2 is not less than 0% and not more than 10%, when the contact angle with water is measured 10 times at arbitrary defined positions within the range of 200 mm×200 mm: Wb 1> Wa   (I) Wb 2> Wa   (II) wherein Wb1 and Wb2 represent the wax content per unit area of the layer B1 and layer B2 respectively, and Wa represents the wax content per unit area of the layer A, and wherein the coefficient of variation represents a value obtained by dividing the standard deviation in values measured 10 times by the average value.

First claim

The invention claimed is: 1. A laminated polyester film comprising: a polyester layer A containing pigment; and polyester layers B1 and B2, each of layers B1 and B2 containing wax, on both sides of the polyester layer A, wherein the film satisfies formulae (I), (II) and III, a surface free energy of each layer B1 and layer B2 is not less than 27 mN/m and not more than 43 mN/mm, and a coefficient of variation of water contact angle for each layer B1 and layer B2 is not less than 0% and not more than 10%, when a contact angle with water is measured 10 times at arbitrary defined positions within 200 mm×200 mm: Wb 1> Wa   (I) Wb 2> Wa   (II) Wb 1> Wb 2  (III) wherein Wb1 and Wb2 represent wax content per unit area (μg/cm 2 ) of the layer B1 and layer B2 respectively, Wa represents wax content per unit area (μg/cm 2 ) of the layer A,), Wb1 is not less than 6 μg/cm 2 and not more than 20 μg/cm 2 , Wb2 is not less than 4 μg/cm 2 and not more than 10 μg/cm 2 , and the coefficient of variation of water contact value represents a value obtained by dividing the standard deviation in values measured 10 times by the average value. 2. The laminated polyester film according to claim 1 , wherein the melting point of each of the polyester layer A, the polyester layer B1 and the polyester layer B2 is higher than 250° C. and equal to or lower than 280° C. 3. The laminated polyester film according to claim 1 , wherein both the polyester layers B1 and B2 contain a pigment in an amount of not less than 0% by mass and not more than 5% by mass. 4. The laminated polyester film according to claim 1 , having a color tone L value in the Hunter color system of 65 or more. 5. The laminated polyester film according to claim 1 , having a thickness of not less than 10 μm and not more than 40 μm. 6. The laminated polyester film according to claim 1 , wherein the film satisfies formulae (IV) to (VI) in which t (μm) represents the total thickness of the film, ta (μm) represents the thickness of the polyester layer A, tb1 (μm) represents the thickness of the polyester layer B1, and tb2 (μm) represents the thickness of the polyester layer B2: tb 1/ tb 2>1  (IV) 0.05 μm≤| tb 1− tb 2|≤2 μm  (V) 0.08≤( tb 1+ tb 2)/ t≤ 0.3  (VI). 7. A laminated metal sheet comprising the film according to claim 1 , wherein the polyester layer B2 is laminated on the metal sheet. 8. A light-blocking tape formed from the laminated polyester film according to claim 1 .
