Odor-adsorbing molded article resin composition, odor-adsorbing molded article, and packaging material
An object of the present invention is to provide a resin composition for an odor-adsorbing molded article that is excellent in manufacturability, eliminates odor by exerting a high adsorbing effect on odorous organic matter originally contained in packaging materials and odor generated by the decomposition, etc. of resins constituting packages during disinfection/sterilization treatment such as UV irradiation, hot packing, boiling, γ ray irradiation, or EB irradiation, is less likely to desorb the odor once adsorbed and capable of efficiently adsorbing odor and therefore exerts a high adsorbing effect over a long period without reducing the ability to adsorb odor, and is excellent in resistance to change in taste and odor of contents, and an odor-adsorbing molded article prepared from the resin composition for an odor-adsorbing molded article. The present invention provides a resin composition for an odor-adsorbing molded article comprising at least thermoplastic resin A and an odor adsorbent material, wherein the odor adsorbent material comprises hydrophobic zeolite having a SiO.sub.2/Al.sub.2O.sub.3 molar ratio of 30/1 to 8000/1, and a melt flow rate of the thermoplastic resin A is 5 g/min or more and 100 g/min or less, and an odor-adsorbing molded article prepared from the resin composition for an odor-adsorbing molded article.

Container assembly for flowable matertals
A container assembly for flowable materials, the container assembly comprising: a reusable outer supporting container; and a disposable inner plastic liner; wherein the reusable outer supporting container comprises an outlet pipe comprising a first outlet pipe section connected to the reusable outer supporting container and a second outlet pipe section releasably connectable to the first outlet pipe section, wherein the second outlet pipe section comprises a valve for selectively closing off the second outlet pipe section, and wherein at least one of the first outlet pipe section and the second outlet pipe section comprises an annular recess; and wherein the disposable inner plastic liner comprises a tubular outlet portion, wherein the tubular outlet portion comprises an outer flange configured to be captured between the first outlet pipe section and the second outlet pipe section, and further wherein the outer flange of the tubular outlet portion comprises an annular protrusion configured to be received in the annular recess when the outer flange is captured between the first outlet pipe section and the second outlet pipe section.
LIQUID SUPPLY SYSTEMS, SPOUT SUPPORT TOOLS, AND METHODS OF USING
Liquid supply system for an analyzer. Liquid supply system includes a liquid-containing container and a spout support tool. Liquid-containing container is made up of a rectangular parallelepiped box comprising a wall with an opening therein, and a collapsible insert including a liquid-containing portion received inside the rectangular parallelepiped box. The collapsible insert includes a spout with a flange wherein both are retractable through the opening. The support tool has a body having an engaging portion and a grasping portion, the engaging portion includes a first engagement surface engaged with a surface of the wall, a second engagement surface, and a spout receiver formed in the engaging portion that is configured to be received under the flange to support the spout. pout support tools and retaining methods of a liquid supply system are provided, as are other aspects.
BULK CONTAINER HAVING STEEL OVERPACK
A fire-safe container includes a polymer polymeric IBC within a metal overpack. The metal overpack includes a manway surrounding a plurality of ports. Each port is on a projection form the polymeric IBC that extends into the manway through an aperture. A collar is disposed in each aperture between the projection of the polymeric IBC and the sides of the aperture such that the port is retained in the manway and preventing the port from contacting or collapsing through the aperture. The manway includes a burst disc to release pressure when there is pressure buildup. One of the ports can provide another burst disc to relieve pressure in the polymeric IBC. The polymeric IBC burst disc can release at a pressure that is greater than the pressure at which the manway burst disc releases.
