Abstract
A label having a thickness of from 30 to 120 μm and a Gurley stiffness of from 5 to 40 mgf, and comprising an adhesive layer with a melting heat quantity of from 10 to 55 J/g, is adhered on a body of a container having a thickness of 50 to 130 μm, so that the direction of the label having a Gurley stiffness of from 5 to 40 mgf can correspond to the circumferential direction of the container body, by an in-mold method. Thereby, the label can be adhered with a sufficient adhesion strength and a thin container which is not deformed by the label can be provided.
Claims10
A labeled container with a label stuck to the body of the container, wherein;
- the label has a substrate and an adhesive layer formed on the substrate, the adhesive layer has a melting heat quantity of from 10 to 55 J/g, the label has a thickness of from 30 to 120 μm and has a Gurley stiffness in the circumferential direction of the body of the container of from 5 to 40 mgf, and the thickness of the body of the container to which the label stuck is from 50 to 130 μm.
A method for producing a labeled container, comprising:
- placing a label having a substrate and an adhesive layer formed thereon in a mold wherein the adhesive layer has a melting heat quantity of from 10 to 55 J/g and the label has a direction in which the Gurley stiffness thereof is from 5 to 40 mgf and has a thickness of from 30 to 120 μm, so that the surface of the side opposite to the adhesive layer of the label can be kept in contact with the mold and that the direction of the label with a Gurley stiffness of from 5 to 40 mgf can be stuck to the circumferential direction of the body of the container, and
- in-molding the container inside the mold so that the thickness of a part of the body of the container for labeling can be from 50 to 130 μm, thereby producing a container with the label stuck thereto via the adhesive layer.
