Optimization of process parameters in polymer extrusion is an important task to reduce manufacturing cost. To determine the optimum values of the process parameters, it is essential to find their influence on the strength of polymer breathable thin film. The significance of six important process parameters namely, extruder cylinder temperature, extruder speed, extruder dies temperature, cooling roll temperature, stretching ratio, stretching roll temperature on breathable film strength of polymer extrusion was determined. Moreover, this paper presents the application of Taguchi method and analysis of variance (ANOVA) for maximization of the breathable film strength influenced by extrusion parameters. The optimum parameter combination of extrusion process was obtained by using the analysis of signal-to-noise ratio. The conclusion revealed that extruder speed and stretching ratio were the most influential factor on the film strength, respectively. The best results of film strength were obtained at higher extruder speed and stretching ratio.

A polypropylene film was ablated using a $CO_2$ laser, Ti-sapphire femtosecond laser, and UV nanosecond laser. For modified atmosphere packaging, polypropylene films were ablated by laser pulse with different pulse energies and measured on an optical microscope. Also, we observed the shelf life of a banana contained within packaging of a breathable zipper bag. As a result, we have demonstrated that the breathable film can efficiently extend the shelf life of respiring foods, particularly fresh fruits and vegetables. The development of breathable film laser microfabrication system will more useful for industrial applications.

In this paper, we studied a machining method using a diffractive beam splitter (DBS) and multi- pulse repeated radiation for breathable film. We fabricated micro-grooves on polypropylene (PP) films using multi-pulse radiation and one-shot radiation (radiating pulses at once) and a DBS. In the result, width and depth of the PP film using multi-pulse repeated radiation were more precisely controllable. Therefore, this method can be applicable to in manufacturing breathable film precisely at a high speed.

Swelling and subsequent deformation of membranes by water wetting are regarded as a prime drawback of hydrophilic polyurethane breathable film. Fluoroalkylated surface was prepared by reacting the film with hexamethylene diisocyanate(HDI) and 2-perfluorohexyl ethanol. IR spectra and XPS results showed that the fluoroalkyl group was successfully introduced to the film surface with hexamethylene linkage. Water contact angle was increased from $68.7^{\circ}$ up to $144.2^{\circ}$ with the degree of fluoroalkylation. Decrease in water-vapor permeability was minimized even for the film of highest fluoroalkylation.

In this paper, we fabricated breathable films on the use of microwave oven by using UV nanosecond laser micromachining, and the number of micro-grooves on the film is controlled for different oxygen transfer rate(OTR). As different number of micro-groove, the breath films of 100,000cc, 120,000cc, and 150,000cc can be fabricated. The breath film package of 120,000cc is used for the experiment of steaming a sweet potato. At the result, the sweet potato is well-cooked with enough moisture in the package not bursted.

본 연구는 레이저 가공 비천공 breathable 필름을 포장재로 이용하여 새싹채소의 저장성을 구명하기 위해 다채, 콜라비, 유채, 배추, 적무, 브로콜리 등 여섯 종류의 새싹채소를 개별 및 혼합하여 $10^{\circ}C$에서 저장중 생체중의 변화와 산소, 이산화탄소, 에틸렌 가스 농도 변화를 측정하고 저장종료 후 패널테스트를 통해 외관상의 품질과 이취정도를 측정하였다. 20,000cc, 60,000cc, 그리고 100,000cc 비천공 필름을 사용하였을 때 필름의 가스 투과도에 의한 새싹채소들의 수분손실로 발생하는 생체중의 변화는 모든 처리구에서 0.5% 미만으로 매우 적었다. 가스의 변화는 20,000cc 필름에서 산소 농도는 감소하고 이산화탄소의 농도는 증가하는 경향을 보였는데 이것은 최적의 MA 조건에 가까운 것으로 저장성 향상에 도움을 주는 것으로 판단된다. 동일한 필름에서 관능검사를 통한 외관상 품질 과 이취 발생정도도 가장 우수한 결과를 보여주었다. 여섯가지 새싹채소를 동일한 무게 비율로 혼합하여 개별 포장 실험에 사용한 동일한 용기에 각각 유공필름과 20,000cc, 40,000cc, 60,000cc, 80,000cc, 그리고 100,000cc 비천공 breathable 필름을 포장재로 7일간 저장한 실험의 결과, 포장재의 가스 투과도는 생체중의 변화에 영향을 미치지 않았다. 그러나 호흡에 의한 변화율에 비해 필름의 이산화탄소와 산소의 투과성에 의한 교환비율이 적은 20,000cc 비천공 필름은 관능검사에서 외관은 우수하였으나 다량의 이취가 발생하여 새싹채소의 혼합포장재로는 적절하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 40,000cc 또는 60,000cc 비천공 breathable 필름이 복합 새싹채소 저장에는 유리한 것으로 판단된다.

Silica-polyurethane hybrid breathable films were prepared and their breathabilities were assessed. Appropriately aggregated silica was prepared through sol-gel reaction of water glass and its particle size ranged 360~500nm. The polyurethane dispersion was prepared by the reaction of isophorone diisocyanate(IPDI) as diisocyanate and polytetramethylene glycol(PTMG) and dimethylol propionic acid(DMPA) as polyol, particle size ranging 30~120nm. The reaction between isocyanate and hydroxyl group to form urethane bonding was checked by the intensity of the stretch peak of isocyanate at $2270cm^{-1}$ in the FT-IR. The silica was incorporated into polyurethane dispersion and casted into film. It was shown that the incorporated silica(1~5wt.%) increased water vapour permeability of the films by 30~100%, and decreased the hydrostatic pressure by 10~40%. From the results, it could be concluded that the appropriate hybridization of silica can increase the breathability of polyurethane dispersion film, while minimizing the loss of hydrostatic pressure.

본 연구에서는 통기성 필름의 제조 공정에 대한 환경영향 특성을 분석하기 위해 전과정평가를 수행하였다. 특성화와 정규화 결과, 영향범주 별 환경영향은 지구온난화가 약 97%. 인간독성 2%의 기여도를 나타났다. 주요 기여도는 투입물인 고밀도 폴리에틸렌(HDPE)과 폴리프로필렌(PP) 그리고 에너지인 전력으로 나타났다. 세부 공정에서는 혼합단계(Mixing)가 57%, 부착단계(Lamination) 29% 압출단계(Extruder) 10% 순으로 높은 환경영향 기여도를 보였다. 환경 영향을 개선하기 위해서는 전력 사용량을 감소시키거나 원재료인 HDPE나 PP를 제외한 수율 향상을 고려한 새로운 공정 시스템 설계가 필요하다.
