The present invention relates to an injection-molded item with HDT-B temperature of from 80 to 105° C. in accordance with DIN EN ISO 75-2:2004-09, comprising: i) from 47 to 59% by weight, based on the total weight of components i to iv, of a biodegradable aliphatic polyester; ii) from 3 to 14% by weight, based on the total weight of components i to iv, of an aliphatic-aromatic polyester; iii) from 15 to 24% by weight, based on the total weight of components i to iv, of polylactic acid; iv) from 10 to 35% by weight, based on the total weight of components i to iv, of at least one mineral filler;
where the following applies to the compounded material comprising components i to iv: the ratio of component i to component iii in the compounded material is from 2.2 to 3.2, and the MVR of the compounded material is from 8 to 50 cm.sup.3/10 min in accordance with DIN EN 1133-1 of March 1, 2012 (190° C., 2.16 kg).

The invention relates to a multilayer biaxially oriented polyester film comprising a base layer B, an amorphous outer layer A and a further outer layer C, where this polyester film is suitable for lamination with metal sheets. The invention in particular relates to a polyester film which comprises (based on the mass of polyester) from 2 to 15% by weight of isophthalate-derived units in the base layer and which comprises more than 19% by weight of isophthalate-derived units in the amorphous layer A, and which has a silane-based coating on the outer layer A. The invention further relates to a process for the production of these films.

A container and method include a bowl having an interior for storing a substance, an openable lower lid for accessing the substance when the lower lid is in an open configuration, and an upper lid for retaining the substance within the interior of the bowl and the lower lid. The lower lid in the open configuration is replaceable and resealable using an adhesive to be in a closed configuration, with the substance sealed within the bowl. The bowl, the lower lid, and the upper lid are composed of a biodegradable or recyclable material. A ring is disposed under a lip of the bowl and engageable with the upper lid for establishing a child-resistant engagement between the upper lid and the bowl. An intermediate lid pushes against an engagement surface of the bowl for locking the upper lid

The present invention relates to the use of a laminate film, which can be transparent or white or colored (as described in the specification), comprising a first bi-axially oriented polyester film laminated to a second bi-axially oriented polyester film, wherein said first bi-axially oriented polyester film comprises a polyester base film comprising at least one polyester layer comprising one or more co-polyester(s) comprising units of terephthalic acid and at least a diol, said second bi-axially oriented polyester film comprises a polyethylene terephthalate base film, an inorganic vapor deposited layer, and an optional outer protective layer directly adhered to said inorganic vapor deposited layer, said inorganic vapor deposited layer comprising an inorganic compound selected from the group consisting of oxides, nitrides and oxynitrides of Al, Ti, Si, Zn, Sn, and mixture thereof, and a glue layer is interposed between said first bi-axially oriented polyester film and said second bi-axially oriented polyester film, and wherein said laminate film has (i) a tear ratio, between the tear initiation force measured according to ASTM D-1004 and said first bi-axially oriented polyester film total thickness, of at least 37 gf/micron in at least one of longitudinal and transverse direction, and (ii) a free shrink measured according to modified IS011501-95 at 180° C. for 5 minutes lower than 5% in at least one of longitudinal and transverse direction, as a lid in tray lidding applications and to the tray lidding packages made therefrom.

A child-resistant closure (10) is provided and comprises a lid (20) and a base (15). The closure comprises child-resistant locking means for preventing unwanted opening of the lid. The locking means comprising two locking members (23A, 23B) carried on or by a respective release member, the locking members engaging the base to prevent opening of the lid. The release members are movable towards each other to disengage the locking members from the base.

A container and method include a bowl having an interior for storing a substance, an openable lower lid for accessing the substance when the lower lid is in an open configuration, and an upper lid for retaining the substance within the interior of the bowl and the lower lid. The lower lid in the open configuration is replaceable and resealable using an adhesive to be in a closed configuration, with the substance sealed within the bowl. The bowl, the lower lid, and the upper lid are composed of a biodegradable or recyclable material. A ring is disposed under a lip of the bowl and engageable with the upper lid for establishing a child-resistant engagement between the upper lid and the bowl. An intermediate lid pushes against an engagement surface of the bowl for locking the upper lid and the ring together.

The present invention relates to a testing lid for testing the stroke of a holding plate of a closure head of a can closing device for cans, in particular beverage cans, the testing lid comprising: an edge portion provided for positioning onto a can edge, in particular for additional crimping with the can edge; and an inner portion, in which one or a plurality of testing pins are arranged in a force-fitting manner, the testing pins being displaceable by the holding plate in the direction of stroke while a stroke of the holding plate is taking place. The invention additionally relates to a method of testing the stroke of a holding plate of a closure head of a can closing device for cans making use of the testing lid according to the present invention.
