Packaging material prepared from a paper or paperboard substrate which includes a layer of moisture barrier material is made resistant to loss of its moisture barrier characteristics when the packaging material is scored and bent during any converting operation by the addition of a layer of flexible primer material located between the paper or paperboard substrate and the moisture barrier layer.

Packaging material having good moisture barrier

This invention relates to substrates for paperboard packaging having a press-applied barrier coating. Such structures of this type, generally, reduce the edgewick in the paperboard package such that catastrophic failure of the paperboard package is substantially reduced.

Method of producing paperboard packaging with an improved sizing layer

This invention relates to the use of a single 'hold-out' coating layer including a colloidal copolymer applied by the paper machine on the press-applied barrier side of a paperboard substrate. Such structures of this type, generally, allow paper machine with only one coater on the barrier side to apply a sufficient coating for the desired hold-out.

This invention relates to moisture resistant frozen food packaging using highly-sized paperboard and press applied moisture resistant over-print varnishes. Such structures of this type, generally, employ a moisture-resistant coating which is placed between the food product and the paperboard in order to provide a barrier for the food from the board and also to prevent the paperboard from absorbing moisture. Also, edge-wick moisture absorption is minimized by the use of the highly-sized sheet.

This invention relates to substrates for paperboard packing with an improved sizing layer including a styrene maleic anhydride binder for reducing edgewicking. Such structures of this type, generally, reduce the edgewick in the paperboard package such that catastrophic failure of the paperboard package is substantially reduced.

Barrier coatings are disclosed to reduce the migration of contaminants from paperboard into food products packaged in containers prepared from the paperboard. The barrier coatings operate to either absorb the contaminants or provide a tortuous path to their migration from the paperboard particularly at the high temperatures reached during the cooking of the food products in microwave ovens.
