11 IN CHAMBER TOP COATING

12 The In Chamber Coating Process

13 THE COATING ASSEMBLY

14 Metal layer PINHOLE THEORY Gas transmission rate through a metallized film is controlled by the number of defects in the metal layer Defects Substrate Gas flow

15 PINHOLE THEORY What causes the defects? Roller debris Metal layer Substrate Scratches in the metal layer from debris on rollers Impurities in the surface flaking off Antiblock particles Oligomers & waxes

16 PINHOLE THEORY How does a coating prevent the defects? Roller debris Coating Metal layer Substrate Impressions in the coating instead of scratches in the metal layer Impurities in the surface are trapped

17 PINHOLE THEORY Uncoated Coated

18 BARRIER VALUES Material Metallizing Condition MVTR Values g/100in²/24 hr. Improvement Percentage OTR Values cc/100in²/24 hr. Improvement Percentage PET UNCOATED PET COATED OPP UNCOATED COATED PLA UNCOATED COATED COATED WVTR tested at 100º F, 90% RH OTR tested at 73.4º F, 50% RH

20 The SiOx Coating Process Rewinder Unwinder Plasma pretreatment Electron beam evaporation

21 The SiOx Winding Zone

22 The SiOx Coating Zone

23 SiOx-PLA Barrier Development MVTR Values g/100in²/24 hr. OTR Values cc/100in²/24 hr. Product SiOx PET SiOx PET laminated to 80g CPP SiOx OPP SiOx OPP laminated to 80g CPP SiOx PLA SiOx PLA laminated to 80g PLA WVTR tested at 100º F, 90% RH OTR tested at 73.4º F, 50% RH

24 SUMMARY

25 SUMMARY PLA films can be effectively run through various barrier processes. Improved barrier values can be achieved, for PLA to be used for flexible packaging applications. In chamber coating significantly improves the barrier values of metallized PLA.
