Abstract
Description
プラスチックアンプルは、通常、薬液を収容するための薬液収容部と、この薬液収容部と連通し、一方側に向かって延びる薬液排出筒部と、この薬液排出筒部の一方側端部を閉鎖する頂部と、を備えており、上記薬液排出筒部に形成された脆弱部(周方向に沿って形成された薄肉部)において、上記薬液排出筒部の脆弱部を開裂する(例えば、捩じ切る、または折り裂く)ことにより、薬液を排出するための排出口が形成されるように構成されている。
また、プラスチックアンプルの製造方法としては、特許文献2に記載されているように、ブロー成形によるアンプルの成形工程と、アンプル内への薬液の充填工程と、アンプルの密封工程とを連続して実行する、いわゆるブロー・フィル・シール(BFS)法が知られており、このBFS法によれば、プラスチックアンプルを一体的に形成でき、しかも、薬液をプラスチックアンプル内へ無菌的に収容し、密封できる。
特許文献3には、熱可塑性樹脂100重量部に、カラーインデックスピグメントイエロー95および/またはカラーインデックスピグメントイエロー147を、0.02~3.0重量部配合してなることを特徴とする輸液バッグ用着色樹脂組成物が記載されている。
また、プラスチック材料に紫外線吸収剤を配合して、紫外領域の波長を十分に遮蔽させる場合は、紫外線吸収剤を多量に配合することで、コストアップの問題が顕著となりやすく、しかも、プラスチック材料中への紫外線吸収剤の分散性の低下や、プラスチック材料からの紫外線吸収剤の滲出(ブリード)といった不具合を生じるおそれもある。
本発明の目的は、プラスチックアンプルに収容された薬液の揮発・散失や、プラスチックの配合剤の薬液中への溶出を抑制し、さらに、プラスチックアンプル開封時のヒゲの発生や、開口部の変形・損壊を抑制することができるプラスチックアンプルを提供することにある。
すなわち、本発明のプラスチックアンプルは、薬液を収容するための薬液収容部と、前記薬液収容部と連通し、一方側に向かって延びる薬液排出筒部と、前記薬液排出筒部の一方側端部を閉鎖する頂部と、を備え、前記薬液排出筒部は、周方向に沿って薄肉に形成される脆弱部を備え、前記薬液収容部、前記薬液排出筒部および前記頂部が、ガラス転移温度が60~80℃の環状オレフィン系(コ)ポリマーを含む中間層と、前記中間層の内側に積層される内層と、前記中間層の外側に積層される外層と、を含む多層プラスチックからなることを特徴としている。
しかも、本発明のプラスチックアンプルによれば、前記薬液排出筒部の脆弱部を開裂する際の作業性が良好で、プラスチックアンプル開封時のヒゲの発生や、開口部の変形・損壊を抑制することができる。
この場合、前記中間層と前記内層との接着性や、前記中間層と前記外層との接着性を向上させることができる。
この場合、上記摘み片を把持して捩じりまたは折り曲げることにより、薬液排出筒部をその脆弱部で捩じ切りまたは折り裂くことができるため、プラスチックアンプルを開封する操作が容易となる。
この場合、上記補強片により、薬液収容部と薬液排出筒部との間の剛性が向上されるため、摘み片を捩じりまたは折り曲げる際に、薬液収容部や薬液排出筒部の変形を抑制でき、また、薬液排出筒部の脆弱部を容易かつ確実に破断することができる。それゆえ、プラスチックアンプルを開封するための作業性が顕著に向上する。
上記薬液排出筒部の脆弱部を開裂するのに要する力が上記範囲に設定されることで、プラスチックアンプルを開封するための作業性が顕著に向上する。
(i) 密度0.900~0.940g/cm3の高圧法ポリエチレンを含んでいること、または、
(ii) ポリプロピレン系樹脂を含んでいること、が好適である。
上記(i)の場合には、上記脆弱部を開裂するのに要する力の調節が容易になり、しかも、上記脆弱部を捩じ切りまたは折り裂く際の感触が良好となる。
また、上記(ii)の場合において、前記ポリプロピレン系樹脂は、ポリプロピレンと、ポリプロピレンエラストマーと、造核剤との混合物であることが好適である。
この場合、上記多層プラスチックの内層および外層の柔軟性と透明性とを、向上させることができる。

本発明の着色プラスチック容器によれば、容器の内部に対する適度な視認性を維持しつつ、紫外領域の波長を効率よく遮蔽することができる。それゆえ、本発明によれば、紫外線により分解、劣化しやすい薬剤を安定して収容することができる。
また、この場合においては、前記着色層中の紫外線吸収剤の含有割合U(重量%)を、前記着色層の厚さT(μm)で除したときの商U/Tが、下記式(4)を満たしていることがより好ましい。
着色層を熱可塑性多層プラスチックの外側表面に配置することで、すなわち、着色層を熱可塑性多層プラスチックの最外層にすることで、紫外線吸収剤による紫外線吸収効果を効率よく発揮させることができる。また、この場合に、着色層中の紫外線吸収剤の含有割合を上記範囲に設定することで、熱可塑性多層プラスチックの表面からの紫外線吸収剤の滲出(ブリード)を防止することができる。
また、本発明の着色プラスチック容器において、前記熱可塑性多層プラスチックの透過率は、波長200~380nmの光線に対し、5%以下であり、かつ、波長600nmの光線に対し、40%以上であることが好適である。
本発明の着色プラスチック容器は、有底筒状に形成された薬液を収容するための薬液収容部と、薬液収容部の開口端と連通し、一方側に向かって延びる薬液排出筒部と、薬液排出筒部の一方側端部を閉鎖する頂部と、を備える着色プラスチックアンプルであり、かつ、前記薬液収容部での熱可塑性多層プラスチックの厚みが、300~1500μmであることが好適である。
それゆえ、本発明のプラスチックアンプルは、例えば、薬液を密封状態で収容するためのアンプルとして好適であり、とりわけ、BFS法により作製されるプラスチックアンプルとして好適である。

薬液収容部11、薬液排出筒部12および頂部13は、互いに連続し、一体となっており、薬液を収容、密封するための閉じられた領域を形成している。
これにより、薬液収容部11と、薬液排出筒部12の頂部13側とを把持し、これらを互いに捩じり、または、折り曲げることで、脆弱部14を、容易に捩じ切りまたは折り裂き、開裂させることができる。また、これにより、プラスチックアンプル10を開封することができる。

上記一般式(A)、(A’)および(B)で表される繰返し単位を有するポリマーのうち、その水素添加物は、いずれも飽和ポリマーであることから、ガス遮蔽性や水分遮蔽性に加えて、耐熱性や透明性、さらには安定性の点で優れている。
環状オレフィン系(コ)ポリマーの分子量は、特に限定されないが、数平均分子量<Mn>が、好ましくは、1万~10万であり、さらに好ましくは、2万~5万である。なお、平均分子量は、例えば、シクロヘキサンを溶媒とするゲル浸透クロマトグラフィ(GPC)分析によって、スチレン換算値として求められる。
このような混合樹脂として、好ましくは、例えば、Tgが60~80℃の環状オレフィン系(コ)ポリマーと、密度0.900~0.940g/cm3(さらに好ましくは、密度0.920~0.930g/cm3)の高圧法ポリエチレンまたは密度0.940~0.970g/cm3の高密度ポリエチレンと、を含む混合樹脂が挙げられる。
ポリオレフィンとしては、特に限定されないが、例えば、従来、医療用プラスチック容器に用いられている種々のポリオレフィンが挙げられ、なかでも、好ましくは、ポリエチレン系樹脂やポリプロピレン系樹脂が挙げられる。そして、医療用プラスチック容器の耐熱性を重視する場合には、ポリプロピレン系樹脂が好適に用いられる。
一方、ポリプロピレン系樹脂としては、例えば、アイソタクチックポリプロピレン、シンジオタクチックポリプロピレンなどの結晶性ホモポリマーや、少量のコモノマーを含む結晶性コポリマーが挙げられる。
ポリプロピレン系樹脂のメルトフローレート(MFR)は、特に限定されないが、環状オレフィン系(コ)ポリマーを含む中間層18との成形性や、プラスチックアンプルの力学的特性などの観点から、好ましくは、0.2~20g/10分(230℃)である。

さらに、外層20には、例えば、着色剤、紫外線吸収剤などを配合してもよい。
着色剤は、プラスチックアンプルの光線透過性を低下させ、プラスチックアンプルに収容される薬液の光劣化を防止する目的や、プラスチックアンプルに意匠性を付与する目的で配合される成分であって、具体的には、例えば、C.I.ピグメントイエロー95、C.I.ピグメントイエロー147、C.I.ピグメントイエロー180、C.I.ピグメントイエロー181などの黄色顔料、例えば、C.I.ピグメントレッド220、C.I.ピグメントレッド177などの赤色顔料、C.I.ピグメントブルー60などの青色顔料などの顔料が挙げられる。これら顔料は、単独で用いてもよく、2種以上を混合して用いてもよい。
紫外線吸収剤は、プラスチックアンプルの紫外線透過性を低下させ、プラスチックアンプルに収容される薬液の紫外線による劣化を防止する目的で配合される成分であって、具体的には、例えば、2-(2’-ヒドロキシ-5’-メチルフェノール)ベンゾトリアゾール(チバ・スペシャルティ・ケミカルズ株式会社製の商品名「チヌビン(登録商標)P」)、2-(2’-ヒドロキシ-3’,5’-ビス(メチルベンジル)フェノール)ベンゾトリアゾール(同社製の商品名「チヌビン(登録商標)234」)、2-(2’-ヒドロキシ-3’-tert-ブチル-5’-メチルフェノール)-5-クロロベンゾトリアゾール(同社製の商品名「チヌビン(登録商標)326」)、2-(2’-ヒドロキシ-3’,5’-ジ-tert-ブチルフェノール)-5-クロロベンゾトリアゾール(同社製の商品名「チヌビン(登録商標)327」)、2-(2’-ヒドロキシ-3’,5’-ジ-tert-アミルフェノール)ベンゾトリアゾール(同社製の商品名「チヌビン(登録商標)328」)、2-(2’-ヒドロキシ-5’-テトラメチルブチルフェノール)ベンゾトリアゾール(同社製の商品名「チヌビン(登録商標)329」)などのベンゾトリアゾール系紫外線吸収剤などが挙げられる。
外層20を形成する樹脂中に紫外線吸収剤を配合する場合には、紫外線吸収剤による紫外線吸収の効率を向上させ、紫外線吸収剤の使用量を低減させるという観点より、さらに、金属酸化物微粒子を配合することが好ましい。
また、金属酸化物微粒子の平均粒子径は、特に限定されないが、プラスチックアンプルの透明性を維持するという観点より、好ましくは、50nm以下、さらに好ましくは、30nm以下である。
紫外線吸収剤と、金属酸化物微粒子との組み合わせとしては、特に限定されないが、好ましくは、2-(2’-ヒドロキシ-3’-tert-ブチル-5’-メチルフェノール)-5-クロロベンゾトリアゾール(前出の商品名「チヌビン(登録商標)326」)と、酸化亜鉛微粒子との組み合わせが挙げられる。
多層プラスチックの厚みは、プラスチックアンプル10の用途、収容される薬液の種類、収容量などに合わせて適宜設定すればよく、特に限定されないが、例えば、薬液収容部11では、好ましくは、300~1500μmであり、さらに好ましくは、400~1200μmである。多層プラスチック厚みは、薬液収容部11、薬液排出筒部12および頂部13の各部において、同一であってもよく、互いに異なっていてもよい。
また、脆弱部14の開裂に要する力は、薬液排出筒部12における多層プラスチックの厚みに対し、好ましくは、0.65N・m/mm以下であり、さらに好ましくは、0.05~0.65N・m/mmである。脆弱部14の開裂に要する力(多層プラスチックの厚みの単位長さあたりの力)が、薬液排出筒部12における脆弱部14に隣接し、かつ多層プラスチックの厚みが略均一な部分において、上記範囲となるように設定されることで、脆弱部14を開裂するための操作性が良好になる。
図1および図2に示すように、薬液排出筒部12の外周面26には、薬液排出筒部12の脆弱部14より頂部13側から連続して、薬液排出筒部12の外側に突出し、かつ、頂部13の外表面27から連続して、頂部13の外側に突出する摘み片28を備えている。
また、図1および図2に示すように、肩部17における薬液収容部11の外周面23と、脆弱部14より薬液収容部11側における薬液排出筒部12の外周面26と、には、それぞれ薬液排出筒部12および薬液収容部11の外側に突出し、かつ、互いに連結されている補強片31を備えている。
これにより、例えば、プラスチックアンプル10の輸送中や取り扱い中において、薬液収容部11から突出している薬液排出筒部12が破損しにくくなる。
補強片31は、フラット部32と、フラット部32の周囲に形成される面取り部33とを有しており、摘み片28の内部は、中空状の肉厚部分を形成している(図7参照)。これにより、補強片31自体の剛性が保たれ、補強効果がより一層向上し、プラスチックアンプル10を開封するため、補強片31を把持した場合に、補強片31の変形を抑制できる。しかも、摘み片28を捩じる際に、補強片31への指当たりが良好となる。
摘み片28および補強片31は、プラスチックアンプル10の製造時において、薬液収容部11、薬液排出筒部12および頂部13の各部とともに、成形することができる。
具体的には、例えば、まず、上記多層プラスチックを押出成形して、内側から順に、内層19と、接着層21と、中間層18と、接着層22と、外層20とが、互いに融着して積層された多層構造のパリソンを作製する。次いで、得られた多層パリソンを割り型で挟み、薬液収容部11と、薬液排出筒部12と、補強片31との各部を形成し(ブロー工程)、次に、薬液収容部11の内部に薬液を充填し(充填工程)、さらに、割り型で挟んで、頂部13および摘み片28を形成し、薬液収容部11と、薬液排出筒部12と、頂部13とからなる閉じられた領域を形成する(シール工程)ことで、薬液が充填密閉されたプラスチックアンプル10が得られる。
上記の方法によれば、プラスチックアンプルの成形、薬液の充填、アンプルの密閉が、いずれも連続的に行われることから、安全性、衛生性に優れ、所定量の薬液(図示省略)が薬液収容部11(および薬液排出筒部12)に密封状態に充填された状態の成形品(プラスチックアンプル10)を、低コストで製造することができる。
また、多層構造のパリソンを用いたブロー・フィル・シール法によるプラスチックアンプルの製造は、パリソンの層構造が異なること(パリソンを形成する押出機の数やダイの構造が異なること)以外は、単層構造のパリソンを用いたBFS法によるプラスチックアンプルの製造と、同様にして行うことができる。なお、多層フィルムの各層は、上記したように、互いに融着して積層させてもよく、各層の間に、上記した接着性樹脂からなる層を介在させて、互いに接着させてもよい。
次に、本発明の着色プラスチック容器についての実施の形態を、添付図面を参照して詳細に説明する。
本発明の着色プラスチック容器は、顔料および紫外線吸収剤を含む着色層と、前記着色層の一方側表面に直接にまたは中間層を挟んで積層される内層と、を備える熱可塑性多層プラスチックで形成されている。
図8に示す熱可塑性多層プラスチックは、顔料および紫外線吸収剤を含む着色層101と、着色層101の一方側表面に積層された環状オレフィン重合体層102と、環状オレフィン重合体層102の着色層101と反対側の表面に積層されたポリオレフィン層103とを備えている。この熱可塑性多層プラスチックにおいて、着色層101は、着色プラスチック容器の外層を形成する層であり、環状オレフィン重合体層102は、着色プラスチック容器の中間層を形成する層であり、ポリオレフィン層103は、着色プラスチック容器の内層を形成する層である。
図9に示す熱可塑性多層プラスチックは、顔料および紫外線吸収剤を含む着色層101と、着色層101の一方側表面に積層された3層構造の中間層104と、中間層104の着色層101と反対側の表面に積層されたポリオレフィン層103とを備えている。また、中間層104は、環状オレフィン重合体層102と、環状オレフィン重合体層102の一方側表面および他方側表面にそれぞれ1層ずつ積層される、計2層のポリオレフィン層105,106とを備えている。この熱可塑性多層プラスチックにおいて、着色層101は、着色プラスチック容器の外層を形成する層であり、ポリオレフィン層103は、着色プラスチック容器の内層を形成する層である。
着色層を形成するプラスチックとしては、熱可塑性を有するプラスチックであること以外は特に限定されず、具体的には、例えば、ポリオレフィンが挙げられる。
ポリエチレン系樹脂としては、例えば、高圧法(分岐状)低密度ポリエチレン(HP-LDPE)、直鎖状低密度ポリエチレン(LLDPE)、中密度ポリエチレン(MDPE)、高密度ポリエチレン(HDPE)などのホモポリマーや、ポリエチレン系コポリマーが挙げられる。ポリエチレン系コポリマーにおけるエチレン以外のコモノマーとしては、例えば、プロピレン、ブテン-1、ペンテン-1、ヘキセン-1,4-メチルペンテン-1、オクテン-1、デセン-1などのα-オレフィン類が挙げられる。また、このポリエチレン系コポリマーにおいて、エチレン以外のコモノマーの含有割合は、好ましくは、20モル%以下であり、より好ましくは、3~20モル%である。
また、着色層は、例えば、ポリプロピレンと、ポリプロピレンエラストマーと、造核剤との混合物から形成されていてもよい。この場合、着色層の透明性を向上させることができる。
顔料は、着色プラスチック容器の光線透過性を低下させ、着色プラスチック容器に収容される内容物(例えば、薬剤など。)の光線(特に、紫外線)による変質を抑制するために配合される成分である。また、顔料は、上記目的のほか、例えば、着色プラスチック容器に意匠性を付与する目的で配合されていてもよい。
具体的に、着色プラスチック容器に収容される内容物が、主として、紫外領域の光線を遮蔽すべきものである場合には、顔料として、例えば、アゾ縮合系顔料(例えば、下記式で示されるC.I.ピグメントイエロー95、下記式で示されるC.I.ピグメントイエロー93、下記式で示されるC.I.ピグメントイエロー94、下記式で示されるC.I.ピグメントイエロー128、C.I.ピグメントレッド144、C.I.ピグメントレッド220、C.I.ピグメントレッド221、C.I.ピグメントレッド242など)、イソインドリノン系顔料(例えば、下記式で示されるC.I.ピグメントイエロー110、C.I.ピグメントイエロー109、C.I.ピグメントイエロー139、C.I.ピグメントイエロー173、C.I.ピグメントオレンジ61、C.I.ピグメントオレンジ68など)、モノアゾ系顔料(例えば、C.I.ピグメントイエロー181など)、ジスアゾ系顔料(例えば、C.I.ピグメントイエロー180など)、アンスラキノン系顔料(例えば、C.I.ピグメントイエロー147など)、ジオキサジン系顔料、キナクリドン系顔料などの有機顔料や、例えば、酸化鉄、C.I.ピグメントブルー28(コバルトブルー;アルミン酸コバルト)、C.I.ピグメントイエロー53(チタンイエロー;ニッケルイエロー)などの無機顔料が挙げられる。
着色層に含有される紫外線吸収剤としては、例えば、ベンゾフェノン系、ベンゾトリアゾール系、トリアジン系、シュウ酸アニリド系、シアノアクリレート系などが挙げられる。なかでも、紫外線吸収剤は、ベンゾトリアゾール系が好適である。
着色層には、さらに必要に応じて、顔料および紫外線吸収剤以外の各種の添加剤を配合することができる。
金属酸化物微粒子の金属酸化物としては、例えば、酸化チタン、酸化亜鉛、酸化鉄、酸化セリウム、酸化マグネシウムなどが挙げられる。また、紫外線吸収剤と、金属酸化物微粒子との組み合わせとしては、特に限定されないが、例えば、好ましくは、前出の商品名「チヌビン(登録商標)326」と、酸化亜鉛微粒子との組み合わせが挙げられる。
ポリオレフィン層を形成するポリオレフィンとしては、着色層を形成するプラスチックと同様のものが挙げられる。
環状オレフィン重合体層を形成する環状オレフィン重合体としては、例えば、環状オレフィンとオレフィンとの共重合体、環状オレフィンの開環重合体、これらの水素添加物などが挙げられる。具体的には、例えば、エチレンとジシクロペンタジエン類との共重合体、エチレンとノルボルネン系化合物との共重合体、シクロペンタジエン誘導体の開環重合体、2種以上のシクロペンタジエン誘導体の開環共重合体、これらの水素添加物が挙げられる。なかでも、好ましくは、エチレンとノルボルネン系化合物との共重合体の水素添加物、1種または2種以上のシクロペンタジエン誘導体の開環(共)重合体の水素添加物が挙げられる。
環状オレフィン重合体のガラス転移温度(Tg)は、特に限定されないが、例えば、JIS K 7121-1987「プラスチックの転移温度測定方法」に記載の入力補償示差走査熱量測定(入力補償DSC)により測定された中間点ガラス転移温度(Tmg)として、好ましくは、60~80℃、より好ましくは、65~80℃である。
環状オレフィン重合体の分子量は、特に限定されないが、数平均分子量<Mn>が、好ましくは、1万~10万であり、より好ましくは、2万~5万である。なお、平均分子量は、例えば、シクロヘキサンを溶媒とするゲル浸透クロマトグラフィ(GPC)分析によって、標準ポリスチレン換算値として求められる。
(a) 環状オレフィン重合体層、
(b) 環状オレフィン重合体層と、その環状オレフィン重合体層の一方側表面および他方側表面にそれぞれ1層ずつ積層される計2層のポリオレフィン層と、を備える3層構造の積層体、
(c) 着色層、
などが挙げられる。
上記(a)および(b)に示すように、環状オレフィン重合体層を中間層とする場合であっても、環状オレフィン重合体層を内層とする場合と同様の作用効果が得られる。すなわち、着色層中の顔料および紫外線吸収剤が着色プラスチック容器の内部へ移行することを防止する効果や、着色プラスチック容器の強度を向上させる効果が得られ、さらに、水分およびガスの透過防止能を向上させる効果が得られる。
中間層としての環状オレフィン重合体層に配合するポリエチレンとしては、熱可塑性多層プラスチックの透明性を維持する観点より、比較的高密度のものが好ましい。具体的には、例えば、密度が0.935~0.970g/cm3のポリエチレンが好適である。また、ポリエチレンの含有割合は、環状オレフィン重合体層の総量100重量部に対し、5~20重量部であることが好ましい。
上記熱可塑性多層プラスチックには、必要に応じて、例えば、接着層、ガスバリア層、酸素吸収層、シーラント層などの層を積層することもできる。
着色層の厚さTが50μmを下回ると、本発明の作用効果を発揮させるのに十分な量の顔料や紫外線吸収剤を、着色層中に配合させることが困難になる。逆に、着色層の厚さTが1000μmを上回ると、熱可塑性多層プラスチック全体の厚みが大きくなりすぎて、着色プラスチック容器の成形性や取扱い性が低下する。
本発明の着色プラスチック容器において、着色層中の顔料の含有割合P(重量%)と、着色層の厚さT(μm)との積PTは、下記式(1)を満たすように設定される。
積PTの値を上記式(1)の範囲に設定しつつ、後述する着色層中の紫外線吸収剤の含有割合U(重量%)と、前記着色層の厚さT(μm)との積UTを下記の範囲に設定することで、容器の内部に対する適度な視認性を維持しつつ、紫外領域の波長を効率よく遮蔽することができる。これに対し、積PTの値が上記範囲を下回ると、紫外領域の波長の遮蔽効果が不十分になる。逆に、PTの値が上記範囲を上回ると、着色プラスチック容器の内部の様子が確認しづらくなる。
着色層中での着色剤の配合量は、着色層の厚みTとの関係において、上記式(1)の範囲を満たすように設定されること以外は、特に限定されないが、着色層中での分散性などの観点より、例えば、着色層中での含有割合が、0.01~0.4重量%であることが好ましい。
5≦UT≦160 …(2)
20<UT≦160 …(3)
積UTの値を上記式(2)または(3)の範囲に設定しつつ、上述の積PTの値を上記式(1)の範囲に設定することで、容器の内部に対する適度な視認性を維持しつつ、紫外領域の波長を効率よく遮蔽することができる。
積PTが20を上回る場合において、積UTの値は、上記範囲の中でも特に、好ましくは、5~120であり、より好ましくは、10~100である。
着色層中での紫外線吸収剤の配合量は、着色層の厚みTとの関係において、上記式(2)の範囲を満たすように設定されること以外は、特に限定されないが、着色層中での分散性などの観点より、例えば、着色層中での含有割合が、0.01~0.4重量%であることが好ましい。
U/T≦0.004 …(4)
商U/Tが上記範囲を上回ると、着色層から着色プラスチック容器の外部へと、紫外線吸収剤が滲出(ブリード)するおそれがある。
本発明の着色プラスチック容器において、着色層以外の各層の厚みは、いずれも、熱可塑性多層プラスチックから形成される層全体に対し、好ましくは、10~50%の範囲で設定される。なお、各層の厚みの割合は、多層プラスチック容器に収容される内容物の種類、収容量などに合わせて、適宜設定することができる。
本発明の着色プラスチック容器に収容される薬剤としては、特に限定されないが、例えば、好ましくは、オザグレルナトリウム水溶液が挙げられる。
図11は、着色プラスチック容器の一実施形態としての着色プラスチックアンプルの一例を示す正面図であり、図12は、その側面図であり、図13は、平面図であり、図14は、底面図であり、図15は、側断面図である。
図13および図14に示すように、薬液収容部111の断面形状は、平面視または底面視において、円形状に形成されているが、薬液収容部111の上記断面形状は、これに限定されず、例えば、楕円状に形成されていてもよい。
また、薬液排出筒部112は、薬液収容部111の開口端111aから、薬液排出筒部112の一方側端部までの間の略中間部分に、薬液排出筒部112の周方向に沿って薄肉に形成される脆弱部114を備えている(図15参照)。
また、これにより、薬液排出筒部112が開口され、こうして生じた開口部に、図示省略のシリンジのノズルを挿入し、薬液収容部111内に収容されている薬液を採取できる状態となる。なお、シリンジは、例えば、そのノズルの先端に注射針を付けない状態で、ノズルを薬液排出筒部112の開口に挿入し、薬液収容部111内に収容されている薬液を吸引するようにして使用される。
図11および図12に示すように、薬液排出筒部112の外周面126には、薬液排出筒部112の脆弱部114より頂部113側から連続して、薬液排出筒部112の外側に突出し、かつ、頂部113の外表面127から連続して、頂部113の外側に突出する摘み片128を備えている。
また、図11および図12に示すように、肩部117における薬液収容部111の外周面123と、脆弱部114より薬液収容部111側における薬液排出筒部112の外周面126と、には、それぞれ薬液排出筒部112および薬液収容部111の外側に突出し、かつ、互いに連結されている補強片131を備えている。
これにより、例えば、着色プラスチックアンプル110の輸送中や取り扱い中において、薬液収容部111から突出している薬液排出筒部112が破損しにくくなる。
補強片131は、フラット部132と、フラット部132の周囲に形成される面取り部133とを有しており、摘み片128の内部は、中空状の肉厚部分を形成している。これにより、補強片131自体の剛性が保たれ、補強効果がより一層向上し、着色プラスチックアンプル110を開封するため、補強片131を把持した場合に、補強片131の変形を抑制できる。しかも、摘み片128を捩じる際に、補強片131への指当たりが良好となる。
着色プラスチックアンプル110は、例えば、いわゆる、ブロー・フィル・シール法と、多層ブロー成形法とを組み合わせた成形方法によって製造することができる。
すなわち、顔料および紫外線吸収剤を含む着色層と、前記着色層の一方側表面に直接にまたは中間層を挟んで積層される内層と、を備え、前記着色層の厚さTが、50~1000μmの範囲に設定され、前記着色層中の顔料の含有割合P(重量%)と、前記着色層の厚さT(μm)との積PTが、下記式(1)を満たし、前記着色層中の紫外線吸収剤の含有割合U(重量%)と、前記着色層の厚さT(μm)との積UTが、上記積PTが20を上回るときに下記式(2)を満たし、かつ、上記積PTが20以下であるときに下記式(3)を満たす熱可塑性多層プラスチックを、押出し成形し、各層が互いに融着して積層された多層構造のパリソンを作製する。
5≦UT≦160 …(2)
20<UT≦160 …(3)
次いで、得られた多層パリソンを割り型で挟み、薬液収容部111と、薬液排出筒部112と、補強片131との各部を形成し(ブロー工程)、次に、薬液収容部111の内部に薬液を充填し(充填工程)、さらに、割り型で挟んで、頂部113および摘み片128を形成し、薬液収容部111と、薬液排出筒部112と、頂部113とからなる閉じられた領域を形成する(シール工程)。こうして、薬液が充填密閉された着色プラスチックアンプル(着色プラスチック容器)110が得られる。
また、多層構造のパリソンを用いたブロー・フィル・シール法によるプラスチックアンプルの製造は、パリソンの層構造が異なること(パリソンを形成する押出機の数やダイの構造が異なること)以外は、単層構造のパリソンを用いたBFS法によるプラスチックアンプルの製造と、同様にして行うことができる。なお、多層フィルムの各層は、上記したように、互いに融着して積層させてもよく、各層の間に、上記した接着性樹脂からなる層を介在させて、互いに接着させてもよい。
着色プラスチックアンプル(着色プラスチック容器)110は、各種の方法で成形することができる。なかでも、好ましくは、ブロー・フィル・シール法が挙げられる。

図8に示す形状のアンプル(内容積2.5mL用)を、表4または表5に記載の層構成からなる熱可塑性多層プラスチックで、ブロー・フィル・シール法により製造した。アンプル内には、0.8%(w/v)オザグレルナトリウム水溶液を2.5mL充填した。
また、表4、表5および以下に示す表において、「P」および「PT」は、それぞれ、該当する着色層での顔料の含有割合P(重量%)、および、顔料の含有割合P(重量%)と厚みT(μm)との積を示している。「U」、「UT」および「U/T」は、それぞれ、該当する着色層での紫外線吸収剤の含有割合U(重量%)、紫外線吸収剤の含有割合U(重量%)と厚みT(μm)との積、および、紫外線吸収剤の含有割合U(重量%)を厚みT(μm)で除した商を示している。
表4および表5に示す実施例2-1~2-8および比較例2-1~2-4のアンプルについて、室温放置14日後のアンプル外観の確認をおこなった(ブリードの確認)。
