摘要:
A method for reducing sharkskin melt fracture during extrusion of a molten narrow molecular weight distribution linear ethylene polymer which comprises extruding said polymer through a die having a die gap greater than about 50 mils and wherein at least a portion of one surface of the die lip and/or die land in contact with the molten polymer is at an angle of divergence or convergence relative to the axis of flow of the molten polymer through the die.
摘要:
A method is disclosed for the extrusion of low-density linear polyolefin materials having high viscosities, wherein such materials are continuously fed to and through a rotary extruder having feeding, transition and metering sections which comprises employing, in the extruder screw forming such sections in cooperation with the cylindrical interior of the extruder housing, opened leading edges for the screw flights of said sections; and gall-resistant coated surfaces on the screw flights of said sections.

A plastic container for a particulate product includes a base and a surrounding wall member upstanding therefrom which generally define a container main interior volume. A top connects to the surrounding wall member and includes a large opening sufficient to receive about a 5 inch cylinder therethrough. The surrounding wall member includes a pair of pinch pockets having a lateral opening separation W which is not greater than about 2.5 inches and/or a lateral minimum separation C of not greater than about 2.0. In some embodiment, a thumb receiving cavity is provided above the pinch pockets. The pinch pockets are configured and sized for easy grasping and holding of the container.
摘要:
A multi-compartment microwaveable food container and, in particular, a microwaveable container having at least two compartments with different degrees of shielding to provide different energy inputs to food products contained therein while being heated in a microwave together at the same settings. At least one compartment of the container contains an in-mold label or other type of shielding with microwave-reflective areas to provide the desired shielding properties to the food product contained therein. Additionally, a lid component can also contain an in-mold label or other type of shielding to provide further shielding of the compartment. The two or more food compartments may contain various degrees of shielding provided by complete or partial in-mold labels or other types of shielding.

A container and container system are provided to reduce a loss of coffee aroma ingredients from a roasted coffee. The container includes a main body having walls made of a laminate of plastics materials. Contained in the main body is a roasted coffee which naturally releases aromatic ingredients. The laminate includes an outer or structural layer and a thin inner barrier layer, with the inner layer being in close proximity or in contact with the roasted coffee. The body has an Aroma Retention Effectiveness (ARE) of the aromatic ingredients of less than about 30%. Preferably, the outside plastic layer is HDPE, the inner barrier layer is EVOH, and the roasted coffee is fresh roast and ground coffee or roasted whole coffee beans. A method for reducing a loss of aroma ingredients is also disclosed. In accordance with the method, a main body of a container unit is made which includes an outer layer and an inner barrier layer.

Process for the plasticization and pumping of low bulk density synthetic thermoplastic materials through extrusion die means employing a mixer type extruder, the extrudate from said extruder is passed through a rotary melt pump and the molten material is discharged therefrom through a die member.
摘要:
Containers and methods are provided for dispensing a liquid concentrate utilizing one or more desirable properties including a generally consistent discharge across a range of squeeze forces, a generally consistent discharge with the same force without significant dependence on the amount of liquid concentrate in the container, a substantially dripless or leak proof outlet opening, a jet that minimizes splashing when the liquid concentrate impacts a target liquid, and a jet that maximizes mixing between the liquid concentrate and the target liquid to produce a generally homogenous mixture without the use of extraneous utensils or shaking Also provided are liquid beverage concentrates that can be cold filled during packaging while maintaining shelf stability for at least about three months at ambient temperatures. Concentrates are provided having low pH, with or without alcohol, and with buffers to allow for increased acid content at a selected pH.
摘要:
A plastic container for a particulate product has a footprint and includes a base and at least two and preferably four sides upstanding therefrom which generally define a container main interior volume. A top connects to the sides and includes a large opening which is closed by a lid. One corner includes a pass-through handle located therein having a generally vertical segment which may define a hollow cavity in communication with the main interior volume. The opening of the top is sufficiently large to extend over a portion of the hollow cavity; or is sufficiently wide to receive about a 5″ diameter cylinder therethrough, and has a ratio of a minimum span to a bottom diagonal of at least about ⅔. A shoulder between the top and sides has an angle of less than about 40°. The handle is configured and sized for easy grasping and holding.
