Abstract

A disposable body warmer outer bag formed from a multilayer film comprising a first barrier layer (10) and a second barrier layer (20), wherein the first barrier layer (10) and the second barrier layer (20) consist of a polyvinylidene chloride layer (12) or a polyvinylidene chloride layer (22) obtained by coating at least one surface (upper portion in FIG. 1) of a heat-resistant resin substrate (11) or a heat-resistant resin substrate (21) with polyvinylidene chloride.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A multilayer film for a disposable body warmer outer bag, comprising:
two or more barrier layers each consisting of a substrate and a polyvinylidene chloride layer obtained by coating at least one surface of the substrate with polyvinylidene chloride; and
an adhesive layer between the two or more barrier layers, wherein
the multilayer film does not comprise any vapor-deposited layer obtained by vapor-depositing a metal or metal oxide, and
the multilayer film has 1.5 to 4.5 cc/(m 2 ·day·atm) of an exygen permeability measured at 20 °C. and 90% RH, and 0.05 to 3.5 g/(m 2 ·day) of a water vapor permeability measured at 40 °C. and 90% RH.

2. The multilayer film for a disposable body warmer outer bag according to claim 1 , wherein each of the substrates of said two or more barrier layers is selected from biaxially oriented polypropylene, biaxially oriented polyethylene terephthalate and a biaxially oriented polyamide resin.

3. The multilayer film for a disposable body warmer outer bag according to claim 1 , further comprising a sealant layer comprising a thermal fusible resin substrate.

4. The multilayer film for a disposable body warmer outer bag according to claim 1 , further comprising an additional resin layer.

5. The multilayer film for a disposable body warmer outer bag according to claim 1 , wherein each of the polyvinylidene chloride layers of the two or more barrier layers faces the adhesive layer.

6. The multilayer film for a disposable body warmer outer bag according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a sealant layer comprising a thermal fusible resin substrate and an additional resin layer, wherein
each of the substrates of said two or more barrier layers is a heat-resistant resin substrate and the thickness of the heat-resistant resin substrate is 3 to 500 μm,
each of the polyvinylidene chloride layers of two or more barrier layers has a thickness of 0.5 to 30 μm, and
a thickness of the sealant layer is 5 to 300 μm and a thickness of the additional resin layer is 3 to 500 μm.

7. A disposable body warmer obtained by packaging airtightly an inner bag accommodating an exothermic composition, in an outer bag formed by thermal fusion of the multilayer film for a disposable body warmer outer bag according to claim 1 .
