  • Patent number: 8377508
    Abstract: A solventless laminating adhesive comprising a polyisocyanate component and a polyol component, both of which are free from polyol components exhibiting crystalline properties at ordinary temperatures. The adhesive exhibits an initial viscosity of 500 to 1000 mPa s three minutes after mixing of the polyisocyanate component with the polyol component and a viscosity increase of 100 to 350% based on the initial viscosity 20 minutes after the mixing. In a coater which is provided with a pair of opposed rolls and in which the rolls rotates in the directions contrary to each other at the opposition site, the adhesive is applied to a film passing between the rolls.

  • Patent number: 8097079
    Abstract: A laminating adhesive includes a polyol; an acid-modified polyol obtained by reaction of a hydrophobic polyol containing a hydrocarbon moiety having 12 to 80 carbon atoms in its molecule in an amount of 30 to 95% by weight or a derivative thereof with an aromatic polycarboxylic acid anhydride and having a carboxyl group at a molecular terminal thereof; an organic polyisocyanate compound; and a silane coupling agent. A laminating adhesive film is excellent even after high-temperature sterilization treatment in adhesion performance between a metal foil or a barrier film and a plastic film serving as an inner layer, and also in adhesion performance between a metal foil or a barrier film and a plastic film serving as an outer layer.

  • Publication number: 20090036630
    Abstract: Polyurethane resin compositions include a urethane prepolymer with an active hydrogen group and a polyisocyanate, or a urethane prepolymer with an isocyanate group and an active hydrogen compound. The urethane prepolymers having an active hydrogen group or an isocyanate group are obtained by reacting an allophanate group-containing polyisocyanate with a side-chain hydrocarbon group of 5 or more carbon atoms and a bifunctional or polyfunctional active hydrogen compound. Particularly preferably, the allophanate group-containing polyisocyanate is obtained by reacting a C5 or higher carbon number compound having an alcoholic hydroxyl group and an organic diisocyanate, in the presence of an organic bismuth carboxylate and an organic phosphite triester. The polyurethane resin compositions are suited for use as adhesives for bonding low-polarity resin bases such as polyolefin films.

  • Patent number: 7364796
    Abstract: Adhesive composition and a flexible packaging composite film that can produce a reduced amount of low-molecular-weight compounds eluted into contents of a composite film to prevent spoilage of inherent properties or performances of the contents, can produce improved oil resistance to prevent significant reduction in strength even when used for oily contents, and can develop favorable flexibility of the composite film to prevent reduction in peel strength. Polyester polyamide polyol and/or polyurethane polyester polyamide polyol including an amide bond produced by reaction between a dimer acid and polyamine is prepared as a polyol component and also concentration of a cyclic compound formed by the amide bond and/or an ester bond in extracted water which is extracted from a composite film adhesively bonded by the adhesive composition by water of 0.5 mL/cm2 per unit area of the composite film is set to be 0.
