Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a simultaneously coaxially stretched polyamide film having excellent quality stability and uniformity by eliminating the presence of a thickness irregularity cycle specific to a tenter clip interval generated in a simultaneous biaxial stretching process. SOLUTION: The amplitude component of a simultaneous biaxial stretching tenter clip interval cycle, which is analyzed by a linear spectrum obtained by the fast Fourier transform of a thickness irregularity fluctuating waveform in a longitudinal direction, is 8 dB or less with respect to the overall value of a total periodic band. When the diameter of each of tenter clips performing simultaneous biaxial stretching is set to D and the distance between the clips grasping a film at first is set to P, stretching is performed so that the ratio NCI/NMD of the mechanical longitudinal draw ratio NCI of the interval P-D between the side end of a certain clip and the side end of the adjacent clip with a longitudinal draw ratio NMD becomes 1.3-2.3.

[0004] The mechanical stretching unevenness and its variation generated in the stretching step appear as thickness unevenness and lead to unevenness in film physical properties due to a difference in molecular orientation. This change in physical properties due to the unevenness in stretching and its fluctuations may cause print pitch deviations in processing steps such as print laminating and bag making and filling of film products as an example of packaging applications, regardless of the adverse effects of the film production process. -Troubles such as meandering, poor sealing, uneven bag making, etc. are caused, and as a result, the quality of film processed products is deteriorated.

The biaxial stretching method includes a sequential biaxial stretching method in which transverse stretching is performed subsequent to longitudinal stretching and a simultaneous biaxial stretching method in which stretching is performed simultaneously in both longitudinal and transverse directions. There are inherent problems.

[0006] An inherent problem that occurs in the simultaneous biaxial stretching method arises from a mechanism in which the end of the unstretched film is gripped with a clip and mechanically stretched in the biaxial direction. In other words, since the stretching is performed by increasing the clip interval in the longitudinal direction and increasing the width of the clip running rail in the lateral direction, the portion that is gripped by the clip at the end of the unstretched film and restrained from stretching, or adjacent to a certain clip. This causes a problem in that stretching distortion occurs in a gap portion sandwiched between the clips and the stretching, and uneven stretching caused by the stretching distortion spreads to a peripheral portion.

[0007] However, no simultaneous biaxially stretched film has been proposed which has effectively solved or improved this problem. In a biaxially stretched film product, the above-described portion grasped and restrained by a clip and a gap portion sandwiched between a certain clip and an adjacent clip are generally called “ears”. The effect of the stretching strain on the ears appears most strongly at both ends of the film and tends to gradually decrease and become weaker toward the center of the film. For this purpose, the ears at both ends are cut off from the entire width of the film by about 50 to 100 mm and then wound up as a film product roll. However, if the stretching distortion at the ear is remarkable, the end of the film after the ear is cut off cannot be practically handled as a product, so it is necessary to further cut it off in the slitting step. For this reason, there are also secondary harms such as lowering the yield of the film product and increasing the burden of recycling.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail. According to the present invention, a simultaneous biaxially stretched tenter clip is obtained by performing a fast Fourier transform, that is, an FFT operation, on a thickness unevenness variation waveform in a longitudinal direction of a film and analyzing the linear spectrum as shown in FIG. The amplitude component of the interval period is 8 dB relative to the overall value of the entire period band, ie, the integral value of the waveform as shown.

According to the results of the linear spectrum analysis, for example, the cooling roll cycle used in the cooling and forming step of the molten resin film mainly has a long period of 1 m or more, and the change is gradual. However, even if the amplitude of the short period repeated at the same fluctuation amplitude of less than 30 cm, especially at a tenter clip interval of less than 8 dB, strongly appears in a state where the difference does not become 8 dB or less, the film has a large variation in physical properties and is required for applications requiring high processability. Cannot be commercialized. The reason is that both ends of the film are forcibly affected by the deformation of the ears compared to the center, so the stress distribution in the surface direction is unbalanced, so if printing processing is taken as an example, processing In this case, the tension applied to the running film does not act uniformly, and the film is locally remarkably stretched to cause a problem such as a printing pitch deviation. This short-period variation in physical properties is the most troublesome because it cannot respond in the processing step.

In the present invention, the effective value of the thickness unevenness fluctuation in the longitudinal direction of the film, that is, the effective value of the thickness unevenness waveform fluctuating to + (positive)-(negative) with the average thickness of the film as a central axis. Is preferably 15% or less of the base thickness,
More preferably, it is 10% or less. Most of the variation in thickness unevenness is a random variation, but when the variation in the thickness of the tenter clip interval is combined with the variation in the random variation, a large combined variation occurs. Large fluctuations, such as over 15% of the base thickness, also impair the physical properties of the film, so that the film cannot be commercialized.

Furthermore, in the present invention, the dry heat shrinkage at 160 ° C. for 5 minutes in at least one of the longitudinal direction and the width direction of the film is preferably from -0.3% to 2.0%.

If the dry heat shrinkage is out of the above range, thermal dimensional stability is inferior and another trouble is induced, which is not preferable.

That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the diameter of the tenter clip 1 for performing simultaneous biaxial stretching is D, the distance between the clips for first gripping the film is P, and the side end of a certain clip and another ratio N CI / N clip mechanical longitudinal stretching ratio of gap P-D between the side edges as N CI, the mechanical longitudinal stretching ratio of N CI and the longitudinal stretching ratio N MD

In this way, the longitudinally uniaxially stretched portion having a width of about D at both ends of the film gripped by the clip 1, that is, the “ear” portion is substantially uniformly stretched, so that the tenter clip interval period can be reduced. The amplitude component can be suppressed to 8 dB or less.

The uniaxial stretching stress of this ear width D is about P-D sandwiched between a certain clip 1 and another adjacent clip 1.
Is determined by the stretching stress in the gap. By selecting the ratio N CI / N MD of the mechanical longitudinal stretching ratio N CI and the longitudinal stretching ratio N MD of the PD to a high ratio within the above-described appropriate range, the PD can be pulled to a high stress region. In addition, it is possible to prevent extreme stretching unevenness due to a neck phenomenon. In addition, in the high stress region, the unstretched film held by the clip 1 further acts to pull out in the longitudinal direction, so that the ears can be stretched substantially uniformly. is there.

This will be described more specifically. If D is too small and P is too large, N CI / N MD becomes less than 1.3 and P
The stretching unevenness of the portion -D is emphasized, and the portion gripped by the clip is hardly stretched, so that stretching unevenness of the clip interval period appears. Conversely, if D is too large and P is too small, N CI / N MD exceeds 2.3, causing breakage of the P-D portion or unstretched film held by the clip 1 being pulled out. They get too gripped and come off. Further, if D is made larger than necessary, the loss based on the width of the ear D becomes large, and the clip 1 catches a thin portion of the film thickness, which leads to another trouble such that the clip 1 is easily broken. Is not preferred.

The longitudinal stretching ratio N CI of the PD is N CI = (N MD · PD) / (PD) as shown in FIG.

In the present invention, the longitudinal stretching ratio in the simultaneous biaxial stretching is from 2.5 times to 4.5 times, and the ratio of the longitudinal stretching ratio to the transverse stretching ratio is from 0.5 to 1.5. It is preferred that The above range is a biaxial stretching ratio that has been put to practical use in order to give a sufficient orientation, but the focus here is that when the uniaxial stretching ratio of the ear width D is less than 2.5 times, the stress-strain curve of Since the yield point and the stress difference are small, it is easy to cause uneven stretching,
On the other hand, when the ratio exceeds 4.5 times, a breakage frequently occurs. Further, since the average thickness of the end portion of the unstretched film having the ear width D is usually two to three times larger than that of the central portion, the above-described phenomenon is remarkably exhibited.

In addition, when the ratio of the longitudinal and transverse stretching ratios is out of the above range, there occurs a problem that the stretching distortion of the ear easily spreads to the biaxially stretched film product. The simultaneous biaxial stretching in the present invention can be performed using a pantograph type tenter, a screw type tenter, a linear motor type tenter, or the like. Among these, a tenter in which each clip is independently driven by a linear motor method is most preferable from the viewpoint of flexibility in controlling a stretching magnification by controlling a variable frequency driver. For example, by performing high-magnification stretching once in the longitudinal direction and then performing uniform stretching of the ears, adjustment such as returning the clip interval to an appropriate magnification is easy. or,
According to the type of polyamide resin and the brand of film production, there is an advantage that the longitudinal / lateral stretching ratio and trajectory can be finely and freely selected.

The measurement was performed by analog measurement using a β-ray thickness gauge manufactured by Yokogawa Electric Corporation. (2) FFT analysis and effective value measurement of thickness unevenness fluctuation The output of the waveform obtained by the above thickness unevenness fluctuation measurement is connected to a Memory HiCorder manufactured by Hioki Electric Co., Ltd. Conversion) to obtain a linear spectrum. Further, the effective value of the thickness unevenness variation was calculated from a thickness unevenness waveform that fluctuated + (positive)-(negative) with the average thickness as a central axis. Example Nylon 6 resin was melt-extruded from a T-die having a width of 600 mm, and cooled and solidified into a sheet on a cooling roll to form a sheet having a thickness of 1.
A 10 μm unstretched polyamide film was formed, and then the film was subjected to a water absorption treatment in a hot water bath adjusted to 50 ° C. Next, this film is supplied to a simultaneous biaxial stretching tenter driven by a linear motor, and both ends are gripped with clips.
Simultaneous biaxial stretching was performed at a longitudinal stretching ratio of 3.0 times and a transverse stretching ratio of 3.3 times. Further, the film was subjected to a heat treatment at 215 ° C. in a tenter oven, and after cooling, both ends of the film were trimmed and wound up by a winder. Thereby, a 10 μm-thick simultaneously biaxially stretched polyamide film product roll was obtained. The winding speed was 120 m / min. The diameter D of the tenter clip was 20 mm, and the inter-clip distance P for initially gripping the film was 55 mm. The mechanical longitudinal stretching ratio N CI of the clip gap PD is 4.1 times, and the ratio N CI / N MD is 1.38.

Next, the variation in thickness unevenness in the longitudinal direction of the obtained film was measured, and the data was subjected to FFT analysis. As a result, the amplitude component of the tenter clip interval cycle was 12 dB or less at all positions where the analysis was performed from both ends of the film to the center of the film at intervals of 50 mm. The effective value of the variation in thickness unevenness was 10% or less.

The variation in thickness unevenness in the longitudinal direction of the obtained film was measured, and the data was subjected to FFT analysis. As a result, from the both ends of the film to the position 200 mm away, the amplitude component of the tenter clip interval cycle was 8 dB or more, which was poor. In other words, it was necessary to cut the left and right 200 mm of the defective portion into a film product, and the width of the practicable film product became narrow, and the yield was significantly deteriorated.
