Definitions

  • the invention concerns a method for forming a container with improved properties, particularly barrier to gases. More particularly, the invention relates to blow molding a polyester container which incorporates hydrolyzing and crystallizing at least a portion of the container's interior surface.
  • Rigid containers made from polyesters such as poly(ethylene terephthalate) and its copolymers (PET) are widely used to package food, beverage and other products.
  • PET poly(ethylene terephthalate) and its copolymers
  • their application is limited by the fact that gases are absorbed into and permeate through the polymer.
  • low permeability is necessary to prevent packaged components, such as carbon dioxide in a carbonated drink, from escaping through the PET container wall. This loss of carbon dioxide from carbonated beverages results in the drink being "flat”. This loss is more pronounced for small packages due to their higher surface to volume ratio.
  • PET is not commonly used for soft drink packages below about 16 fluid ounces in size. Oxygen is also transported through PET. This limits the use of PET packages for oxygen sensitive products such as beer, fruit juices and tomato-based products.
  • polyester transport properties limit their use is in packaging of water.
  • Acetaldehyde a by-product of melt processing of PET caused by the thermal degradation of the PET, diffuses from PET into the water over time.
  • Acetaldehyde in very low concentrations will affect the taste of the water.
  • U.S. patent no. 5,342,558 discloses a "double blow" processes where an amorphous PET preform having a body and a neck sections have dimensions greater than the dimensions of the final PET container to be formed.
  • the body of the intermediate container are heated under specified conditions to rapidly shrink the body, to form a contracted body.
  • the neck section is then heated to effect crystallization.
  • the neck section is then slowly cooled while heating the contracted intermediate body.
  • the heated contracted body of the intermediate container is then blow molded in a second mold to its final shape and dimensions.
  • U.S. patent no. 5,730,914 Another method for increasing the barrier properties of a PET container is described in U.S. patent no. 5,730,914 where a PET bottle preform is preheated to soften the PET. A stretch rod is inserted through the top of the preform to stretches the preform axially until the preform is the length of the final product. The preform is expanded using compressed ambient air, and is molded against the walls of the mold. The air is vented, and dry nitrogen at a temperature below -50° C is injected into the molded preform to purge and cool the molded preform while maintaining pressure of at least 520 kPag.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant d'améliorer la cristallinité d'un conteneur thermoplastique (par exemple, en polyester), et plus particulièrement d'une bouteille en polyéthylène téréphtalate (PET), ou en polyéthylène naphtalate (PEN), ou à base d'un mélange des deux. On hydrolyse au moins une partie de la surface interne de la bouteille pour réduire le poids moléculaire, Mn, du polyester par rapport au reste de la bouteille, et on cristallise au moins une partie de ladite surface. Il est souhaitable que cette surface ait une cristalllinité supérieure à environ 30 %. On obtient donc un conteneur thermoplastique à surface interne dont la cristalllinité est supérieure à celle du reste du conteneur, la cristallinité intérieure étant augmentée grâce au procédé décrit.
