To provide a composite preform that can ensure that worsening of the appearance of a surface of a plastic member caused by near-infrared heating prior to blow molding is effectively prevented and that an inner preform is efficiently heated. The composite preform of the present invention includes a preform and a heat-contractive plastic member, the preform including a mouth part; a trunk part linked to the mouth part; and a bottom part linked to the trunk part, and the heat-contractive plastic member being disposed so as to surround the outside of the preform and including at least a colored layer that contains a resin material and a colorant, wherein the heat-contractive plastic member has a near-infrared transmittance of 50% or higher.

Multifluid dispensing system comprising a receptacle of container in container type and an atomizer Within the receptacle, between at least two of the component-units is provided a connecting-system that includes at least some of: at least one residual interface; at least one permanent-joint of adhesive or weld type; at least one reinforcing functional-form. The connecting-system preferably extends on the entire height of the receptacle. The parts of the connecting-system are preferably, at least partially, superimposed and contained within an operational-section. Additionally, within the receptacle is provided a partitioning-system that consists of at least one mobile-sector which develops via delamination from an internal component-unit. Within the receptacle is equally provided a compression-system that consists of at least one mobile-sector which also develops via delamination from an internal component-unit. The atomizer is made entirely of plastic, is of multifluid type, comprises a return-spring having two curved arms, and a precompression valve-system.

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.

A production method for a container having a covering layer includes forming a preform having a covering layer by using a thermoplastic synthetic resin; heating the preform from an outside of the preform with an infrared heater, and heating the preform from an inside of the preform with an internal heating unit; and forming the container having the covering layer by blow molding in which the heated preform is blown.

A parison for being blow molded into a medical balloon for a catheter includes a first tubular layer having a functional modification and a second tubular layer adapted for bonding with the first tubular layer to form the blow molded balloon. Related methods are also disclosed.

A resin composition comprises: a modified EVOH (A) that is represented by a following formula (I), has contents (mol %) of a, b, and c based on the total monomer units satisfying following formulae (1) through (3), and has a degree of saponification (DS) defined by a following formula (4) of 90 mol % or more; and inorganic oxide particles (B), wherein a content of the inorganic oxide particles (B) is from 5 to 5000 ppm. Such a resin composition is improved in adhesion to a resin other than EVOH, secondary processability, and flexibility without decreasing the performances originally possessed by EVOH, such as gas barrier properties, transparency, flavor retention, solvent resistance, and oil resistance. Accordingly, the resin is preferably used as a molded article, a film, a sheet, a heat shrinkable film, a thermoformed article, a multilayer structure, a coinjection stretch blow molded container, a fuel container, and the like. ##STR00001##
