A synthetic resin container and a preform that can suppress increase in size of a mouth and can improve stability when a mouth is transferred by being gripped by a gripper. A synthetic resin container includes a tubular mouth and forms an accommodation space for contents. An outer circumferential surface of the mouth is provided with a gripper engaging groove to be engaged with a gripper of a transfer apparatus, the gripper engaging groove is formed such that a width of the groove of an opening opened in the outer circumferential surface of the mouth is decreased from an opening toward a bottom of the groove, and the gripper engaging groove corresponds to a shape of the gripper and has an upper side inclination and a lower side inclination respectively obliquely extending with respect to a plane perpendicular to an axis of the mouth.

The present invention relates to a reactor system for a multimodal polyethylene polymerization process, comprising; (a) a first reactor; (b) a hydrogen removal unit arranged between the first reactor and a second reactor comprising at least one vessel connected with a depressurization equipment, preferably selected from vacuum pump, compressor, blower, ejector or a combination thereof, the depressurization equipment allowing to adjust an operating pressure to a pressure in a range of 100-200 kPa (abs); (c) the second reactor; and (d) a third reactor and the use thereof as a container.

Disclosed herein is an oxygen scavenging composition for containers. The oxygen scavenging composition for containers may comprise at least one polyester component, a transition metal catalyst, an oxygen scavenger, and a vegetable oil. The vegetable oil preferably comprises at least one molecule having a double allylic structure. The polyester component preferably comprises at least one acid unit and at least one diol unit. The concentration of double allylic structures of the vegetable oil in the composition may be greater than 5.0 meq/kg of all of the polyester components. The oxygen scavenger is preferably present in the composition at a level less than 1.0% by weight of the total composition. The vegetable oil is preferably present in the composition at a level greater than 0.3% by weight relative to the total weight of the polyester components, the transition metal catalyst and the vegetable oil.

The present disclosure provides a composition. The composition contains (A) an ethylene-based polymer; and (B) a slip agent blend, the slip agent blend containing (i) from greater than 50 wt % to 99 wt % of a first polydimethylsiloxane having a number average molecular weight (Mn) from 30,000 g/mol to less than 300,000 g/mol; and (ii) from 1 wt % to less than 50 wt % of a second polydimethylsiloxane having a number average molecular weight (Mn) from 300,000 g/mol to 2,000,000 g/mol, based on the total weight of the slip agent blend. The present disclosure also provides a film with a layer containing said composition.

Bimodal high density polyethylene compositions can achieve an improved balance of stress crack resistance and processibility by selecting the higher molecular weight and lower molecular weight components such that (1) the higher molecular weight component has a molecular weight distribution below 4, (2) the lower molecular weight component has a complementary density of at least 0.976 g/cm.sup.3, and (3) the overall bimodal copolymer has a relatively broad molecular weight distribution. This combination of properties can provide improved balance of stress crack resistance and processibility.

The present invention relates to a heterophasic propylene copolymer polymerized the presence of a single-site catalyst with a low tensile modulus, a process for preparing such a heterophasic propylene copolymer and articles made therefrom.

Ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer composition pellets comprise: an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, a conjugated polyene, and a predetermined amount of at least one fisheye-suppressing component; wherein pellet surface portions of the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer composition pellets have a conjugated polyene content of not lower than 30 ppb based on the weight of the pellets. Such ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer composition pellets are capable of reliably suppressing occurrence of minute fisheyes having a diameter of 200 m or smaller.

A preparation method of a hybrid composite pipe and applications thereof. By mixing and curing high polymers as a matrix with one or more types of porous lightweight aggregates or granules, the main body or structural layer of this composite pipe can combine with a variety of non-metal or metal materials as well as various types of metal or non-metal base pipes so as to prepare different hybrid composite pipes. The high polymers include the thermosetting high polymers and thermoplastic high polymers. The pipe can be prepared and molded by one or more processes of rolling, winding, pultrusion, centrifugal casting, extrusion, injection molding, resin transfer, and sandwiching. The pipe described herein can be applied to petroleum, natural gas, heat and gas supply, water supply and drainage, agricultural irrigation, mining, seawater desalination, electric power communication, municipal pipeline corridor and other purposes.

The invention is related to a new soft heterophasic random propylene copolymer with improved optical properties, as well as the process by which the heterophasic random propylene copolymer is produced.
