“…Therefore, the lamination of Al foils with polymer films such as polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) have been investigated to enhance their performance. The laminated polymers efficiently protect the Al surface from damages that decrease the protective ability of the Al foil [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. In particular, such polymer-based Al-foil laminates have been studied as a soft packaging material for lithium-ion batteries.…”

The adhesion between aluminum (Al) foil and cast polypropylene (CPP) film laminated with mixtures of amorphous- and crystalline-maleic anhydride-grafted ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (MAH-g-EPDM) rubbers and highly reactive polybutene (HRPB) as the adhesives was investigated. Specifically, the HRPB was used as an adhesion promoter of the MAH-g-EPDM rubbers and CPP as well as a compatibilizer of two kinds of MAH-g-EPDM rubbers having limited miscibility. To introduce strong chemical bonds between the MAH-g-EPDM rubbers and Al foil, the surface of Al foil was treated with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES). The weak adhesion between Al foil and MAH-g-EPDM rubbers was improved by imidization between the amine groups (–NH2) of APTES and the maleic anhydride groups (MAH) of MAH-g-EPDM rubbers. The effects of the composition of adhesives, tempering time and adhesive thickness were also studied to optimize the adhesion of the CPP/Al foil laminates. We concluded that MAH-g-EPDM rubber based adhesives containing HRPB can be applied for the lamination of Al foil and CPP films to satisfy the requirements of high-performance packaging materials for various purposes.

“…They can reduce the surface tension between two liquids or between a liquid and solid and improve the wettability of a liquid on a solid substrate . Specifically, surfactants can enhance spreading or improve the wetting of aqueous solutions on hydrophobic surface such as Tyvek ® . As shown in Figure , the surface tension decreased linearly as the surfactant concentration was increased, which could result in improving the seal strength of coated Tyvek ® on substrates.…”

The Effect of Coating Process and Additives on EVA Coated Tyvek^® for Gas Sterilizable Medical Packaging Applications

et al. 2017

Tyvek®, as an ethylene oxide (EtO) gas sterile medical packaging material with a high‐gas permeation and serving as an excellent microbial barrier, must be coated with heat‐sealable adhesives to thermally seal various plastic packaging trays or films. Tyvek® sheet coated with heat‐sealable adhesives must have both porous structure and good sealing strength to various substrates. In this study, an acid pre‐coating method was distinctively introduced to minimize reactions between the blowing agent and acid during mixing, to resultantly generate ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA) layers with porous structure on Tyvek® sheets. To determine the feasibility of applying the as‐prepared coated Tyvek® as a sterile medical packaging material, we investigated the properties of the coating solution and coated Tyvek® as a function of process and additive composition. Finally, EtO gas sterilization tests were performed, and property changes in the coated Tyvek® were investigated. Properties of the coated Tyvek® were strongly dependent on the pre‐coating process and the composition of various additives. Pre‐coating with citric acid led to less of a reaction between citric acid and ammonium carbonate as a blowing agent during mixing and resulted in both good seal strength and air permeation for the coated Tyvek® sheets. The coated Tyvek® sheets, composed of a water‐based EVA emulsion solution with various additives, were not affected by the EtO sterilization process and yielded good resistance to humidity, EtO gas and vacuum cycles. The coated Tyvek® sheets prepared by applying an acid pre‐coating may be a promising candidate for gas sterilizable medical device packaging materials. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
