An expandable and contractible hose, the hose includes a segmented tubular wall circumscribing an interior. The segmented tubular wall is made up of a plurality of contiguous segments. Each contiguous segment expands along the length of the hose with the application of pressure from within. A bias holds the contiguous segments in a collapsed state when no pressure is applied from within the interior. A pressurized fluid passing within the interior overcomes the bias and causes the contiguous segments to expand into an expanded state.

A cap (100) for a container comprises a disc-shaped top section (102), an annular side section (104) projecting from said disc-shaped top section (102), and a locking flange (111) disposed at an extremity of said annular side section (104) opposite said disc-shaped top section (102), and further comprises a locking flap (116) extending from said annular side section (104), which is mobile between a locked first position wherein a portion (114) of the locking flange (111) extends inwardly from the annular side section (104), and an unlocked second position wherein the locking flange (111) is at least partially recessed relative to the annular side section (104).

The present invention relates to a thermoplastic resin composition with excellent chemical resistance and, more specifically, to a resin composition for blow molding and a molded product obtained by molding the same, the composition maintaining the balance of flowability and impact resistance and improving chemical resistance by controlling the glass transition temperature (Tg) and the weight average molecular weight (Mw) of an α-methylstyrene (AMS)-based heat-resistant resin in a copolymer of vinyl cyanide compound-rubbery polymer-aromatic vinyl compound, having reinforced heat resistance, particularly, in an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) copolymer resin. According to the present invention, an ABS resin composition for blow molding, having excellent chemical resistance while maintaining the balance of flowability, impact resistance and heat resistance to be of at least the same level, and a molded product obtained by applying the same can be obtained.

A method includes injection molding a preform using a two phase injection system having a first phase in which a material is injected into the preform and a second phase in which the material is injected into the preform. The preform is disposed in a mold. The preform is blow molded into an intermediate article. The intermediate article is trimmed to form a finished container. The first phase includes injecting a material into the preform to form a single layer of the preform and the second phase includes injecting the material to form inner and outer layers and an intermediate layer between the inner and outer layers. The inner and outer layers include the material and the intermediate layer includes at least one additive. Finished containers are disclosed.

The present invention provides a packaging carton for fragile, apparatus for making cartoon bottom, and method for making the carton bottom. The packaging carton includes a bottom and peripheral wall which jointly define a receiving space far storing fragile glass substrate with the bottom. The bottom has a skeleton configuration and is made from plastic blowing technology. By the forgoing, the present invention can effectively reduce the packaging cost, and which in turn reducing the cost of the product.

A pressurized container usable for a pressurizable contain, such as an aerosol dispenser, an aerosol dispenser made therewith and preform therefor. The preform/container/dispenser has a neck at the top. The neck has upper and lower portions. The lower portion transitions into a shoulder, which flares outwardly. The shoulder, in turn, transitions into a sidewall. The lower neck portion/shoulder and/or upper part of the sidewall are cystallized. The invention also comprises a preform for making such a pressurizable container and an aerosol dispenser made therewith.

Thermoplastic compositions are described that exhibit resistance to hydrocarbon absorption. Methods for forming the thermoplastic compositions are also described. Formation methods include combining a polyarylene sulfide with a first impact modifier and a second impact modifier such that the impact modifiers are dispersed throughout the polyarylene sulfide. A crosslinking agent can be combined with the other components of the composition following dispersal of the additives throughout the composition to dynamically crosslink at least one of the first and second impact modifiers.

A container, in particular in ampoule form, and consisting entirely or predominantly of plastic materials, having a container body (10) for receiving a filling product (12), which can be removed via a releasable container opening (22) after a closure part (18) has been removed, which is detachably connected to the neck part (14) of the container body (10) along a separation line (20) in an unopened position, is characterized in that, in the unopened position, a conically extending wall (36) on the neck part (14) on the container body (10) and a conically (38) or cylindrically extending wall (38a) on the closure part (18) adjoin the separation line (20), and that these walls (36, 38, 38a) delimit at least part of an annular space (40, 40a), one end of which opens out into the environment and the other end of which opens out into the separation line (20).

The invention relates to a method for the manufacture of at least one flexible plastic container, according to which method each container (10) comprises two separate walls (12, 13) facing one another joined at their circumference by a sealed peripheral edge (14), said separate walls defining a storage space of the container (10). According to the invention, at least the following stages are realized: a) Forming a pile of two sheets (26, 27) of plastic material, said sheets (26, 27) being laid one against the other, the surfaces which face one another of these sheets (26, 27) being placed directly in contact with one another without any element acting as an interface, b) Simultaneously shaping said sheets (26, 27) thus laid one against the other in order to define said at least one container (10) without having previously separated these sheets, at least each container (10) being partially formed, said sheets (26, 27) being maintained lying one against the other in at least one section of the areas of said sheets (26, 27) intended to constitute said peripheral edge (14) of each container (10) during this shaping and c) Sealing at least partially the areas of said sheets (26, 27) intended to constitute said peripheral edge (14) of at least each container (10).

A bioplastic collapsible dispensing tube may include a collapsible tube having walls that include a bioplastic material; a distal end of the tube that is sealed; a proximal end of the tube, opposite the distal end, that has an opening; a nozzle on the opening; and a closure for the nozzle; wherein, when the closure is opened and the tube is collapsed, flowable material inside the tube is urged out of the nozzle; and the bioplastic material includes a bio resin selected from the group consisting of PEF, PBF, PTF, GPE, GPET, PLA, PDLA, PLLA, PHA, and PHBH. A method may include forming a tube and filling the tube with flowable material from the distal end.
