[0062]

[Table 2]

It is understood from Tables 1 and 2 that the paper container of the present invention in which the paper end surface is completely covered has not only suitability for retort sterilization but also microwave oven suitability after retort sterilization (Example 1). It can be seen that, when the paper container not covered with the paper end face is subjected to the retort sterilization treatment, water penetrates from the paper end face to cause deformation of the container and cannot be used (Comparative Example 1). Further, it can be seen that the paper container using the aluminum foil for the barrier layer of the laminated sheet has retort sterilization suitability but not microwave oven suitability (Comparative Example 2). Furthermore, the plastic container having the PP / EVOH / PP constitution does not change its shape due to the retort sterilization treatment, and is suitable for a microwave oven, but has difficulty in gas barrier properties after the retort sterilization treatment (Reference Example 1). .

[0064]

As described above, since the paper container of the present invention is a container mainly composed of paper, it has excellent display properties and printability, and does not require a secondary container such as a plastic container.
Generation of garbage can be suppressed. Because it is a paper container, it has excellent incineration. Further, since retort sterilization treatment is possible, it can be used as a water-resistant container as a container instead of a plastic bottle around water.
