Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

[Problems to be Solved] To coat homopolyethylene terephthalate, which is inexpensive and easily available, on a paper base material directly, not via an adhesive layer, by extrusion coating, thereby providing a paper laminate having heat sealability and having a homopolyethylene terephthalate coating of a uniform film thickness formed thereon. [Means to Solve the Problems] A method for producing a paper laminate having a coating comprising homopolyethylene terephthalate formed on at least one surface of a paper base material by extrusion coating is characterized in that an air gap L, expressed as a distance from a lip opening of a T-die to a paper base material B, is 25 cm or less.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for producing, by an extrusion coating method, a heat-sealable laminate by directly applying a heat-sealable coating composed of a homopolyethylene terephthalate onto the surface of a paper substrate or onto the surface of an aluminum foil laminated on the surface of the paper substrate, wherein said homopolyethylene terephthalate has an intrinsic viscosity in a range of from 0.72 to 0.88 dl/g, the temperature of the homopolyethylene terephthalate when it is melt-extruded by the extrusion-coating method is in a range of from Tm+25° C. to Tm+60° C. based on a melting point (Tm) of said homopolyethylene terephthalate, the extrusion pressure is in a range of from 4.0 to 6.0 MPa, and an air gap, expressed as a distance of from a lip opening of a T-die to the surface of the paper substrate or to the surface of the aluminum foil, is 25 cm or less, and a thickness of the homopolyethylene terephthalate coating varies in a range of less than ±20%.
