Easily peelable film and medical packaging container

Abstract

An easily peelable film comprising a mixture of a propylene/α-olefin copolymer (A), a propylene/α-olefin copolymer (B) having an α-olefin content different from that of the copolymer (A), and/or a propylene homopolymer (C) and a medical packaging container produced using the same. The easily peelable film has excellent heat resistance, flexibility, and transparency and further a broad temperature range for low temperature welding at which peelable partition walls can be formed.

What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A medical packaging container comprising a peelable film comprising 90% or more by weight of a mixture of a propylene/α-olefin copolymer (A) and at least one of a propylene/α-olefin copolymer (B) having an α-olefin content different from that of the copolymer (A) and a propylene homopolymer (C), wherein the propylene/α-olefin copolymer (A) has a melting point of 110-130° C., the propylene/α-olefin copolymer (B) and the propylene homopolymer (C) each have a melting point of 130-170° C., and a difference between the melting point of (A) and the melting point of (B) and a difference between the melting point of (A) and the melting point of (C) is each at least 5° C.  
     
     
         2 . A medical packaging container as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the mixing ratio by weight of the propylene/α-olefin copolymer (A) to the propylene/α-olefin copolymer (B) and/or the propylene homopolymer (C) is 15-85:85-15.  
     
     
         3 . A medical packaging container as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the α-olefin of the propylene/α-olefin copolymer (A) is ethylene.  
     
     
         4 . A medical packaging container as claimed in claim  1 , wherein the α-olefin of the propylene/α-olefin copolymer (B) is ethylene.  
     
     
         5 . A medical packaging container as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the mixture is a mixture of a propylene/ethylene copolymer (A) and a propylene/ethylene copolymer (B).  
     
     
         6 . A medical packaging container as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the mixture is a mixture of a propylene/ethylene copolymer (A) and a propylene homopolymer (C).  
     
     
         7 . A medical packaging container comprising a peelable laminated film, wherein said peelable laminated film comprises, as a surface layer, a film comprising 90% or more by weight of a mixture of a propylene/α-olefin copolymer (A) and at least one of a propylene/α-olefin copolymer (B) having an α-olefin content different from that of the copolymer (A) and a propylene homopolymer (C), wherein the propylene/α-olefin copolymer (A) has a melting point of 110-130° C., the propylene/α-olefin copolymer (B) and the propylene homopolymer (C) each have a melting point of 130-170° C., and a difference between the melting point of (A) and the melting point of (B) and a difference between the melting point of (A) and the melting point of (C) is each at least 5° C.
