  • Patent number: 11957092
    Abstract: A packaging bag as an agricultural container has a film which forms a partition separating a housing space which houses agricultural products such as fruits and vegetables from an external space. The packaging bag includes a CA film and a porous film. The CA film contains cellulose acylate having an acyl group substitution degree of 2.00 to 2.97. The porous film is formed such that a plurality of pores having an average pore size of 0.0050 ?m to 5.0 ?m penetrate the film in a thickness direction.

  • Publication number: 20220322615
    Abstract: A greenhouse has a daylighting member supported by a frame. The daylighting member partitions a growing space for agricultural products from an outside world, and emits light, which has entered from a light incident surface on one side, from a light emitting surface on the other side. The daylighting member has a transparent substrate layer and a transparent light emitting layer provided closer to a light emitting surface side than the substrate layer. The light emitting layer has a refractive index of 1.54 or less, water absorbability, and an equilibrium moisture content of 10% or greater at 25° C. and a relative humidity of 80%.

  • Publication number: 20210084833
    Abstract: The agricultural material includes a cellulose acylate layer and a polymer layer. The cellulose acylate layer is formed of cellulose acylate. The polymer layer is provided on a first CA surface, which is one surface of the cellulose acylate layer. The polymer layer has a moisture permeation resistance of at most 7.5×10?4 m2·day/g per 1 ?m of thickness and is formed of a polymer different from cellulose acylate. The agricultural material has a tear strength of at least 0.10 N.

  • Publication number: 20200324523
    Abstract: The packaging material is formed of a laminated film having a base material containing cellulose acylate and a resin layer. The resin layer is formed on one surface of the base material and contains any one of a mixture of an acrylic resin and a cellulose derivative, a silicone elastomer, or a urethane elastomer. The packaging material is formed of the laminated film having a moisture permeability at 40° C. and a relative humidity of 90% in a range of 60 g/m2·day or more and 700 g/m2·day or less.

  • Patent number: 10744746
    Abstract: A formed body includes a base material, an adhesive layer, and a cellulose acylate film. The base material is formed of a thermoplastic resin and is in the form of a transparent sheet. The adhesive layer bonds the base material and the cellulose acylate film. The cellulose acylate film has a thickness in a range of 15 ?m or more and 100 ?m or less, and is formed of cellulose acylate including an ester oligomer or a sugar ester derivative.
