  • Patent number: 11655087
    Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing a barrier resin film exhibiting excellent barrier properties without adopting a multilayer structure such as the structures used by the prior art. A barrier resin film obtained by forming a vapor-deposited aluminum oxide film on the surface of a resin substrate, wherein an elementally bonded structural unit represented by Al3 is distributed in the vapor-deposited aluminum oxide film, and the intensity ratio (Al3/Al2O3×100) of the maximum Al3 concentration elementally bonded structure section according to Time-of-Flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) is 1-20, inclusive.

  • Publication number: 20220162740
    Abstract: [Object] To improve the adhesion of a vapor-deposited film to a substrate. [Solution] A barrier film includes a substrate containing polyester and a vapor-deposited film containing aluminum oxide. At least the elemental bond of Al2O3 and the elemental bond of CN are detected by etching the barrier film using time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry from a side adjacent to the vapor-deposited film. The peak intensity of the peak of the elemental bond of CN detected at the interface between the substrate and the vapor-deposited film is 0.15 or more times the maximum intensity value of the elemental bond of Al2O3.
