Glass pharmaceutical packages comprising glass containers are disclosed. In embodiments, a coated glass pharmaceutical package includes a glass container formed from one of a borosilicate glass composition that meets Type 1 criteria according to USP <660> or an alkali aluminosilicate glass having a Class HGA 1 hydrolytic resistance when tested according to the ISO 720-1985 testing standard. A lubricous coating may be positioned on at least a portion of the exterior surface of the glass container. The portion of the coated glass pharmaceutical package with the lubricous coating has a coefficient of friction that is at least 20% less than an uncoated glass container formed from the same glass composition. A horizontal compression strength of the portion of the coated glass pharmaceutical package with the lubricous coating may be at least 10% greater than an uncoated glass container formed from the same glass composition.

Games and activities including bottles for flipping, caps, accessories, and methods of using the same are disclosed.

A delamination resistant glass pharmaceutical container may include a glass body comprising a borosilicate glass having a Type 1 chemical durability according to USP <660>. At least an inner surface of the glass body may have a delamination factor less than or equal to 10. A thermally stable coating may be positioned around at least a portion of the outer surface of the glass body. The thermally stable coating may be an outermost coating on the outer surface of the glass body and the outer surface of the glass body with the thermally stable coating has a coefficient of friction less than or equal to 0.7. The thermally stable coating comprising at least one of a metal nitride coating, a metal oxide coating, a metal sulfide coating, SiO.sub.2, diamond-like carbon, graphene, and a carbide coating.

The invention relates to aluminium vessels containing dicarbonic diesters and to a method for producing the packaged dicarbonic diesters.

According to embodiments, a method of making a coated pharmaceutical container, may include: forming a glass tube; forming the glass tube into a pharmaceutical container comprising an interior surface and an exterior surface; and applying a coating to the exterior surface. The coating may have a coefficient of friction less than or equal to 0.7 relative to a second pharmaceutical container when tested in a vial-on-vial testing jig under a normal load of 30 N. The coated pharmaceutical container may be thermally stable after depyrogenation at a temperature of at least 260 C. for 30 minutes in air.

Food and beverage containers and methods of coating are provided. The food and beverage containers include a metal substrate that is at least partially coated with a coating composition that includes a water-dispersible resin system and an aqueous carrier. The resin system includes an epoxy component and an acrylic component. In a preferred embodiment, the coating composition is at least minimally retortable when cured.

A composition for masking scratches on container surfaces is provided including carboxylic acid ester, surfactant, and monounsaturated fatty acid. The composition is suitable for masking scratches on reusable containers such as glass or PET bottles. The composition is suitable for applying to cold wet surfaces where condensation has resulted. A method for making and applying such scratch-masking composition is also provided.

A resin-coated metal sheet for a container, the metal sheet including: a first resin coat layer provided on a first surface of the metal sheet; a second resin coat layer provided on a second surface of the metal sheet, wherein each of the first and the second resin coat layers is composed mainly of a polyester resin having a melting point of 230 C. to 254 C., and the first resin coat layer, in a state that the resin coat layers coat the metal sheet, is formed of a resin material having: an arithmetic average roughness (Ra) of 0.10 m to 1.0 m; a crystallization temperature of 110 C. to 160 C.; and a water contact angle of 55 degrees to 80 degrees in a state that the resin coat layers have been heated at 240 C. for 90 seconds after the resin coat layers coat the metal sheet.

According to embodiments, a method of making a coated pharmaceutical container, may include: forming a glass tube; forming the glass tube into a pharmaceutical container comprising an interior surface and an exterior surface; and applying a coating to the exterior surface. The coating has a coefficient of friction less than or equal to 0.7 relative to a second pharmaceutical container when tested in a vial-on-vial testing jig under a normal load of 30 N. The coated pharmaceutical container may be thermally stable after depyrogenation at a temperature of at least 260 C. for 30 minutes in air.

A glass body support assembly that supports a glass container body in an upright position includes a collet body and clamping fingers that clamp onto a necked-down portion of the glass container body. The collet body has a gas purge passageway extending therethrough to deliver pressurized gas to an interior of the glass container body.
