  • Publication number: 20230391967
    Abstract: Provided is a heat-shrinkable polyester film which undergoes less change in the physical properties even in a high-humidity environment, has excellent storage stability, and effectively suppresses a breakage phenomenon of the film after heat shrinkage. Disclosed is a heat-shrinkable polyester film derived from a polyester resin, in which when tensile strengths in a main shrinkage direction obtained before and after immersion in water at 23° C. for 168 hours in a tensile test as measured according to JIS K 7127 are designated as C1 (MPa) and C2 (MPa), the following Relational Expression (1) is satisfied: ?5.3<(C2?C1)<4.

  • Publication number: 20210214583
    Abstract: What is provided is a heat-shrinkable film and a heat-shrinkable label that, when applied to a container in which the difference between the diameter of the body portion and the diameter of the mouth portion is large, sufficiently shrink in the mouth portion and do not easily allow the generation of a wrinkle or a sink mark in the mouth portion. The heat-shrinkable film contains polyester, a dicarboxylic acid component that constitutes the polyester contains 95 mol % or more of terephthalic acid, and a diol component that constitutes the polyester contains 50 mol % or more of ethylene glycol and 15 mol % or more of cyclohexanedimethanol. The shrinkage rate in the primary shrinkage direction when the heat-shrinkable film is immersed in hot water at 70° C. for 30 seconds is 20% or less, the shrinkage rate in the primary shrinkage direction when the heat-shrinkable film is immersed in hot water at 80° C.
