Description

Soft medical container and nutrient supply system using the same

The present invention relates to a medical soft container and a nutrient supply system using the same.

Enteral nutrition or parenteral nutrition is known as a method for administering nutrition and drugs to patients without oral administration. In enteral nutrition, a liquid such as a nutrient, liquid food, or drug is administered through a tube passed from the patient's nasal cavity to the stomach or duodenum. In the parenteral nutrition method, a liquid (generally referred to as “infusion”) containing nutritional components such as glucose and / or drug components is administered via an infusion circuit inserted into a patient's vein.

When performing enteral nutrition or parenteral nutrition, it is necessary to inject a liquid substance to be administered to a patient into an empty soft medical container in advance.

FIG. 17 is a front view showing a schematic configuration of an example of a conventional medical soft container 900. FIG. 18 is a diagram illustrating the opening of the medical soft container 900 shown in FIG. FIG. 19 is a view showing a state in which the opening 922 is opened by gripping with FIG. 19, and FIG. 19 is a view showing a state in which a liquid material is poured into the medical soft container 900 shown in FIG.

The soft medical container 900 includes a storage portion 921 for storing a liquid material and a discharge port 930 in which a through hole for taking out the liquid material stored in the storage portion 921 is formed. The accommodating part 921 is a bag-like product formed by superposing two flexible sheets and joining their outer peripheral edges to each other by heat sealing (thermal bonding). The discharge port 930 is made of a resin material that is relatively harder than the above-described sheet constituting the housing portion 921.

The injection of the liquid material into the empty medical soft container 900 is performed as follows. First, with the notch 928 as a starting point, the upper portion of the opening 922 is cut along the cut line 929 to open, and the engagement of the zip 923 is released. Next, as shown in FIG. 18, the opening 922 is opened while holding the outer edge of the opening 922 with one hand. Next, as shown in FIG. 19, the other hand (not shown) holds a container 998 containing a liquid substance such as a medicine or a nutrient, and injects the liquid substance from the opening 922 into the accommodating portion 921. .

JP 2007-314245 A

However, in the above-described conventional operation of injecting the liquid material into the medical soft container 900, the outer edge of the opening 922 is held with one hand from the start to the end of the liquid injection operation to open the opening 922. And the soft medical container 900 must be held. As the injection amount of the liquid material increases, the weight of the medical soft container 900 gradually increases. On the other hand, since the soft medical container 900 is made of a flexible material including the opening 922, the opening 922 is easily deformed when a large gripping force is applied. Therefore, there is a possibility that the soft medical container 900 may be dropped or the opening 922 cannot be sufficiently opened to spill liquid. As described above, the operation of injecting the liquid material into the conventional medical soft container 900 has a great mental and physical burden on the operator.

Therefore, it is desired to provide the medical soft container with a member that can stably hold the soft medical container with the opening thereof opened.

However, since the sheet constituting the soft medical container generally has low mechanical strength, it is desirable that when such a member is provided, stress concentration does not occur due to the opening / closing operation of the opening and the weight of the injected liquid material. It is. Moreover, it must be avoided that the quality of the medical soft container is lowered by providing such a member.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a high-quality medical soft container that can be stably held in a state where the opening is largely opened at the time of injecting a liquid substance, and is less likely to cause stress concentration. And Moreover, an object of this invention is to provide the nutrient supply system provided with such a medical soft container.

The soft medical container of the present invention is provided with a flexible bag member having an opening that can be opened and closed at the upper end, and a lower end of the flexible bag member. And a pair of opening / closing operation portions provided on the flexible bag member so that an insertion path into which a finger can be inserted is formed. At least one of the upper and lower end portions of the pair of opening / closing operation portions is fixed to the outer surface of the flexible bag member by heat sealing. The heating region when the at least one end is fixed by heat sealing includes all of the end edges of the at least one end, and the outer peripheral edge of the heating region and the side edges on both sides of the opening / closing operation unit The outer peripheral edge is inclined with respect to the longitudinal direction of the opening / closing operation part at the intersection with the edge.

The nutrient supply system of the present invention includes the above-described soft medical container of the present invention.

According to the present invention, by inserting a finger into an insertion path formed by a pair of opening / closing operation portions provided on the flexible bag member, the medical soft container can be stably maintained with the opening opened. Can be held.

In addition, since the heating region when the end of the opening / closing operation part is fixed by heat sealing includes all of the end edges of the end parts, the end edges adhere to the soft resin sheet. Accordingly, the provision of the opening / closing operation unit does not reduce the feeling of touch and the appearance, and the deterioration of the quality of the medical soft container can be prevented.

Further, the outer peripheral edge is inclined with respect to the longitudinal direction of the opening / closing operation part at the intersection of the outer peripheral edge of the heating region and the side edge of the opening / closing operation part. Therefore, when an external force is applied to the central portion of the opening / closing operation portion so as to peel the central portion from the flexible bag member, it is possible to prevent a large stress concentration from occurring at the intersection.

In the present invention, at least one of the end portions of the opening / closing operation portion fixed to the flexible bag member by heat sealing satisfies the following two conditions.

First, the heating region when the end portion is fixed by heat sealing includes all of the end edge of the end portion (hereinafter referred to as “first condition”). Here, the heating area “includes” all of the end edges means that all of the end edges exist in the heating area (including a case where a part of the end edges are located on the outer periphery of the heating area). means. Preferably, it means that all of the end edges are present inside the outer peripheral edge without contacting the outer peripheral edge of the heating region.

Second, at the intersection of the outer peripheral edge of the heating region and the side edges on both sides of the opening / closing operation part, the outer peripheral edge is inclined with respect to the longitudinal direction of the opening / closing operation part (hereinafter referred to as “second condition”). ). Here, at the intersection point, the outer peripheral edge is “inclined” with respect to the longitudinal direction of the opening / closing operation part, even though the tangential direction of the outer peripheral edge at the intersection point is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the opening / closing operation part. But it means not. The longitudinal direction of the opening / closing operation part means a direction connecting the upper and lower ends fixed to the flexible bag member of the opening / closing operation part.

In the present invention, it is preferable that the heating region has a substantially arc and a line segment connecting both ends of the substantially arc, and the substantially arc intersects the side edge of the opening / closing operation unit. As a result, the intersection between the outer peripheral edge of the heating region and the side edge of the opening / closing operation part is applied to the central part of the opening / closing operation part, regardless of the external force acting in any direction that tears the central part off the flexible bag member. Needless to say, it is possible to prevent a large stress concentration from occurring in other locations.

Alternatively, the heating region may have a substantially trapezoidal shape, and a hypotenuse of the substantially trapezoidal shape may intersect the side edge of the opening / closing operation unit. Thereby, since the shape of the metal mold | die used when heat-sealing becomes simple, a metal mold | die can be created easily.

The pair of opening / closing operation portions may be created as a member separate from the soft resin sheet constituting the flexible bag member. In this case, it is preferable that the upper end portion and the lower end portion of each of the pair of opening / closing operation portions are fixed to the outer surface of the flexible bag member by heat sealing.

In the above, the upper end portions of the pair of opening / closing operation portions are fixed to the outer surface of the flexible bag member by heat sealing heated in a heating region that satisfies the first condition and the second condition. Preferably it is. Thereby, it is possible to prevent a large stress concentration from occurring at the upper end where a large force is often applied.

Alternatively, each of the pair of opening / closing operation units may be integrally formed with the soft resin sheet constituting the flexible bag member. In this case, it is preferable that the lower end of each of the pair of opening / closing operation portions is fixed to the outer surface of the flexible bag member by heat sealing. As a result, the upper end of the opening / closing operation part, where a large force is often applied, is formed integrally with the soft resin sheet, so that the connection strength between the opening / closing operation part and the soft resin sheet at the end is improved. To do.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail while showing preferred embodiments. However, it goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. For convenience of explanation, the drawings referred to in the following description show only the main members necessary for explaining the present invention in a simplified manner among the constituent members of the embodiment of the present invention.

FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the medical soft container 1. In the present invention, the “upper side” (upper side of the paper in FIG. 1) and “lower side” (lower side of the paper in FIG. 1) of the soft medical container 1 are defined in accordance with the actual use state. The left-right direction when the medical soft container 1 is viewed from the front side (see FIG. 2A) or from the back side (see FIG. 2C) is referred to as a “width direction”.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2A to 2C, the soft medical container 1 of this embodiment is fixed to a flat bag-like flexible bag member 20 and a lower end of the flexible bag member 20. And a discharge port 30.

The flexible bag member 20 includes a storage portion 21 for storing a liquid material, and an opening 22 communicating with the storage portion 21. The opening 22 crosses the opening 22 in the width direction and is a zip 23 (an engaging portion that can be freely opened and closed, which can be opened and closed reversibly. This is also called “chuck seal”. ) Is provided. The flexible bag member 20 includes a hanging portion 26 above the opening 22. The suspension part 26 is formed with a suspension hole 27 that is used when the medical soft container 1 is suspended on a stand or the like.

2A and 2C, the vertical axis passing through the suspension hole 27 and the discharge port 30 is referred to as the central axis 1a of the medical soft container 1. In the present embodiment, the central shaft 1a bisects a portion of the flexible bag member 20 below a notch 20c, which will be described later, in the width direction.

As shown in FIG. 3, the flexible bag member 20 is formed by, for example, stacking two soft resin sheets 20a and 20b and heat-sealing (thermally bonding) their outer peripheral edges to each other. Reference numeral 24 in FIGS. 1 and 2A to 2C indicates a heat seal area of the two soft resin sheets 20a and 20b.

3, reference numerals 23 a and 23 b are zip tapes constituting the zip 23. The zip tapes 23a and 23b are fixed to the mutually opposing surfaces (inner surfaces) of the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b by a known method such as heat sealing.

The scale 25 for confirming the quantity of the liquid material inject | poured in the flexible bag member 20 is provided in the surface on the opposite side to the soft resin sheet 20b of the soft resin sheet 20a. The scale 25 is provided along the central axis 1a. The hanging part 26 described above is provided on the soft resin sheet 20b. In the following description, the outer surface of the soft resin sheet 20a provided with the scale 25 (the surface that does not face the soft resin sheet 20b) is referred to as the “front surface” of the medical soft container 1, and the outer surface (soft resin sheet) of the soft resin sheet 20b. The surface that does not face 20a is referred to as the “back surface” of the medical soft container 1.

The discharge port 30 is, for example, a tubular body having a through hole formed at the center thereof. The discharge port 30 is fixed to the flexible bag member 20 by being sandwiched between the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b. The through hole of the discharge port 30 communicates the inside and outside of the flexible bag member 20. For example, the discharge port 30 can be integrated with the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b by heat-sealing the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b in the heat seal region 24 in a state of being disposed between the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b. .

Open / close operation portions 40a and 40b are fixed to the surfaces of the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b opposite to each other (that is, the outer surfaces), respectively. As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2C, the opening / closing operation units 40a and 40b are arranged along the central axis 1a. The opening / closing operation units 40a and 40b are made of a sheet-like material made of, for example, a soft resin. The upper end portions 42a and 42b and the lower end portions 43a and 43b of the opening / closing operation portions 40a and 40b are heat sealed to the outer surfaces of the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b, respectively. At this time, between the upper end portions 42a, 42b and the lower end portions 43a, 43b so that the central portions 41a, 41b between the upper end portions 42a, 42b and the lower end portions 43a, 43b are loosened with respect to the soft resin sheets 20a, 20b. The vertical interval is set appropriately. As a result, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2B, insertion paths 45a and 45b through which fingers can be inserted are provided between the central portions 41a and 41b of the opening / closing operation portions 40a and 40b and the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b. It is formed.

2A and 2C, the soft medical container 1 is asymmetrical with respect to the central axis 1a when viewed from the front side or the back side. That is, as shown in FIG. 2A, when the soft medical container 1 is viewed from the front side, the left end of the upper portion of the flexible bag member 20 is cut out to form a cutout 20c. The side edge 46a on the side close to the notch 20c among the side edges 46a, 46b on both sides in the width direction (that is, the left-right direction) of the opening / closing operation units 40a, 40b is inclined with respect to the central axis 1a. The side edge 46b far from the notch 20c is substantially parallel to the central axis 1a.

A method of using the soft medical container 1 of the present embodiment will be described.

As shown in FIG. 4, the soft medical container 1 can configure a nutrient supply system 90 by connecting an infusion set 91 to the discharge port 30 thereof, for example. The infusion set 91 has a flexible tube 92 whose one end is connected to the discharge port 30, a drip tube 93 and a flow rate regulator 94 provided on the flexible tube 92, and the other end of the flexible tube 92. A connector 95 provided on the connector 95, a connector cover 96 that covers the connector 95, and the like. The drip tube 93 visualizes the flow rate of the liquid material flowing through the infusion set 91. The flow rate regulator 94 presses the flexible tube 92 to change the flow path cross-sectional area thereof, thereby enabling the flow rate adjustment of the liquid material flowing through the infusion set 91. The connector 95 is connected to a tube (not shown) inserted into the patient's nasal cavity or vein. However, the nutrient supply system of the present invention is not limited to the configuration shown in FIG. 4. For example, the nutrient supply system can be configured by combining any conventionally known infusion set with the medical soft container 1 of the present embodiment. It may be configured.

First, the flow rate regulator 94 is operated to crush the flexible tube 92 and close the flow path. In this state, as shown in FIG. 5, the left thumb is inserted into the insertion path 45a of the opening / closing operation unit 40a, and the other finger (index finger in FIG. 5) is inserted into the insertion path 45b of the opening / closing operation unit 40b. And hold the soft medical container 1 with the left hand. The opening 22 can be freely opened and closed by bringing the thumb and index finger into and out of the insertion paths 45a and 45b with the thumb and index finger inserted and separated.

Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the liquid in the cup 98 held by the right hand (not shown) while holding the soft medical container 1 with the left hand with the opening 22 opened (for example, infusion) Is poured into the opening 22.

Since the thumb and forefinger are inserted into the insertion paths 45a and 45b, the soft medical container 1 can be stably held with the opening 22 being greatly opened. Therefore, the possibility that the soft medical container 1 is dropped or the opening 22 cannot be sufficiently opened and the liquid material is spilled is reduced. Therefore, the mental and physical burden on the operator in the operation of injecting the liquid material into the medical soft container 1 is reduced.

As shown in FIG. 6, when the soft medical container 1 is held with the left hand with the front surface of the medical soft container 1 (the surface on which the scale 25 is provided) facing the operator, the notch 20 c (FIG. 2A). 2C), the palm of the left hand fits in, so even a small hand operator can insert a finger deeply into the insertion paths 45a and 45b.

When the wrist joint of the left hand is at a natural angle, the front of the medical soft container 1 faces the operator as shown in FIG. 6, so that the scale 25 attached to the front can be easily seen. Further, the scale 25 is not hidden by the left hand or the like. Since the opening / closing operation parts 40a, 40b and the scale 25 are provided along the central axis 1a (see FIGS. 2A and 2C), the soft medical container 1 held by the opening / closing operation parts 40a, 40b has the central axis 1a is held so as to be substantially parallel to the direction of gravity, and the injection amount can be accurately measured with the scale 25.

After injecting the liquid material, the zip 23 is engaged to close the opening 22.

Thus, the medical soft container 1 filled with the liquid material is suspended on a stand or the like by using the suspension hole 27 of the suspension part 26 disposed above the opening 22. The medical soft container 1 is suspended so that its central axis 1a is substantially parallel to the direction of gravity and the discharge port 30 is at the lowest position. Connect the connector 95 to the tube inserted in the patient and open the flow regulator 94. Thereby, the liquid substance in the medical soft container 1 can be administered to a patient. Since the discharge port 30 is positioned at the lowest position, the liquid material in the medical soft container 1 flows out without any residue.

The attachment position of the opening / closing operation portions 40a and 40b with respect to the flexible bag member 20 is not particularly limited as long as the medical flexible container 1 can be held with one hand while the opening 22 is opened. In general, it is preferable to attach the opening / closing operation portions 40a and 40b so that insertion paths 45a and 45b penetrating in the left-right direction are formed in the vicinity of the upper end of the opening portion 22. In the case where the opening 22 is provided with the zip 23, the zip 23 may be opened while a finger is put in the insertion paths 45a and 45b. Accordingly, the opening / closing operation portions 40a, 40b are attached to the opening portion 22 so that the upper end portions 42a, 42b and the lower end portions 43a, 43b of the opening / closing operation portions 40a, 40b sandwich the zip 23 up and down as in this embodiment. It is preferable.

The outer peripheral edges (substantially arcs 52a1, 52b1) of 52a, 52b are inclined with respect to the longitudinal direction of the opening / closing operation units 40a, 40b (in the direction of the central axis 1a in this embodiment) (second condition).

The effect that the upper and lower end portions 42a, 42b, 43a, 43b of the opening / closing operation units 40a, 40b are heat sealed by the heating regions 52a, 52b, 53a, 53b as described above will be described below.

For comparison, an example in which the upper end 42a of the opening / closing operation unit 40a is fixed to the soft resin sheet 20a in a heating region different from the present invention by heat sealing is shown in FIGS. 9A and 9B.

The heating region 102a shown in FIG. 9A has a substantially rectangular shape arranged on the inner side of the terminal edge 48a and the side end edges 46a and 46b of the upper end part 42a of the opening / closing operation part 40a. Therefore, unlike the heating region of the present embodiment, the heating region 102a does not include the terminal edge 48a opposite to the central portion 41a of the opening / closing operation unit 40a (that is, the first condition is not satisfied). Further, the outer peripheral edge of the heating region 102a does not intersect with the side edges 46a and 46b on both sides in the width direction of the opening / closing operation unit 40a (that is, the second condition is not satisfied).

On the other hand, the heating area 112a shown in FIG. 9B has a substantially rectangular shape protruding from the upper end part 42a of the opening / closing operation part 40a. Accordingly, the heating region 112a includes a terminal edge 48a opposite to the central portion 41a of the opening / closing operation unit 40a (first condition), similarly to the heating region of the present embodiment. However, unlike the heating region of the present embodiment, the outer periphery of the heating region 112a is opened and closed at the intersections P12a and P12b between the outer periphery of the heating region 112a and the side edges 46a and 46b on both sides in the width direction of the opening / closing operation unit 40a. It is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the operation unit 40a (that is, the second condition is not satisfied).

As in the heating area 102a shown in FIG. 9A, if the heating area does not include the terminal edge 48a opposite to the central part 41a of the opening / closing operation part 40a, the terminal edge 48a of the opening / closing operation part 40a is the soft resin sheet 20a. It floats up from the soft resin sheet 20a without sticking to. Accordingly, there is a problem in that the terminal edge 48a is caught on the skin of the operator and the touch feeling of the medical soft container is lowered, the appearance is poor and the cheapness is felt, and the quality is lowered. On the other hand, in this invention, as shown to FIG. 7A, the heating area | region 52a contains all the termination | terminus edges 47a on the opposite side to the center part 41a of the opening / closing operation part 40a (1st condition). Therefore, since the terminal edge 48a is in close contact with the soft resin sheet 20a, the above problem can be solved.

Further, the heating region 52a is a region where the upper end portion 42a of the opening / closing operation unit 40a is heat-sealed to the soft resin sheet 20a by including all of the terminal edges 47a of the opening / closing operation unit 40a (first condition). The overlapping area between 52a and the upper end 42a becomes larger. Therefore, it is possible to easily ensure the necessary attachment strength of the opening / closing operation part 40a to the soft resin sheet 20a.

On the other hand, when the outer peripheral edge of the heating region is not inclined with respect to the longitudinal direction of the opening / closing operation unit 40a at the intersections P12a and P12b as in the heating region 112a illustrated in FIG. 9B, the following problem occurs. That is, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a finger is inserted into the insertion path 45a of the opening / closing operation unit 40a to open the opening 22, or the soft medical container 1 is inserted with the finger inserted into the insertion path 45a. When a liquid material is injected, an external force is applied to the central portion 41a of the opening / closing operation portion 40a so as to peel the central portion 41a from the soft resin sheet 20a. In many cases, the external force acts in an oblique direction with respect to the longitudinal direction of the opening / closing operation unit 40a when viewed from the direction perpendicular to the soft resin sheet 20a. As shown in FIG. 9B, when the outer peripheral edge of the heating region 112a is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the opening / closing operation unit 40a at the intersections P12a and P12b, the above-described oblique external force locally acts on the intersections P12a and P12b. The stress concentrates at the intersections P12a and P12b, and in the worst case, there arises a problem that the soft resin sheet 20a is torn at the intersections P12a and P12b. On the other hand, in this invention, as shown to FIG. 7A, the outer periphery of the heating area | region 52a inclines with respect to the longitudinal direction of the opening / closing operation part 40a in intersection P12a, P12b (2nd condition). Accordingly, the external force in the oblique direction acts in a distributed manner on the regions A1 and A2 on the outer peripheral edge of the heating region 52a including the intersections P12a and P12b. Therefore, a large stress concentration as shown in FIG. 9B does not occur, and the situation where the soft resin sheet 20a is torn can be prevented.

In the above description, the effect of the heating region 52a on the upper end 42a of the opening / closing operation unit 40a shown in FIG. 7A has been described as an example, but the same applies to the other heating regions 52b, 53a, and 53b.

In this embodiment, all of the upper and lower end portions 42a, 42b, 43a, 43b of the opening / closing operation units 40a, 40b are heated regions 52a, 52b, 53a, 53b that satisfy the first condition and the second condition (FIG. 7A, 7B, FIG. 8A, and FIG. 8B) are fixed to the flexible bag member 20 by heat sealing. However, the present invention is not limited to this. In other words, in the present invention, at least one of the end portions 42a, 42b, 43a, and 43b fixed by heat sealing may be fixed by heat sealing with a heating region that satisfies the first condition and the second condition. Preferably, the upper end portion 42a and / or the upper end portion 42b are fixed by heat sealing with a heating region that satisfies the first condition and the second condition. This is because the upper end portions 42a and 42b are easily affected by the weight of the liquid material injected into the medical soft container 1, and the stress concentration described with reference to FIG. 9B is likely to occur.

In the present embodiment, the substantially arcs 52a1, 52b1, 53a1, and 53b1 constituting the heating regions 52a, 52b, 53a, and 53b do not need to be arcs in a strict sense with a constant curvature. Any curve may be used as long as the curve is convex toward the central portions 41a and 41b of the opening / closing operation portions 40a and 40b, and the curvature thereof may be changed. For example, it may be a part of an ellipse.

Further, the line segments 52a2, 52b2, 53a2, and 53b2 constituting the heating regions 52a, 52b, 53a, and 53b do not have to be straight lines in a strict sense, and may include curved or bent portions.

The materials of the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b and the opening / closing operation portions 40a and 40b constituting the flexible bag member 20 are not particularly limited, but for example, conventionally known soft resin sheets used for soft medical containers are used. it can. Specifically, for example, a single-layer sheet made of vinyl chloride resin, polyethylene, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, polyester, polybutadiene, polypropylene, polyamide, ethylene-methacrylate copolymer, or the like, or two layers of the above-mentioned single-layer sheet The laminated sheet laminated | stacked above is mentioned. Specific examples of the layer structure of the laminated sheet include nylon / polyethylene, nylon / polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate / polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate / polypropylene, polypropylene / polyethylene, nylon / polypropylene / polyethylene, and the like. Or even a laminated sheet (for example, biaxially stretched polypropylene (OPP) / unstretched polypropylene (CPP)) in which the same kind of resin having different grades (for example, film forming method, mechanical properties, or composition) is laminated. Good. The materials of the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b and the opening / closing operation units 40a and 40b may be the same or different. It is preferable that the surface on the side to be heat-sealed is made of a material having easy heat-sealability (for example, polypropylene). The thickness of the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b is not particularly limited, but is about 0.1 to 0.6 mm, for example. It is preferable that the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b have translucency (or semi-transparency) because the liquid material in the housing portion 21 can be visually recognized from the outside. More preferably, the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b are transparent.

The material of the discharge port 30 is not particularly limited, but a material harder than the material of the soft resin sheets 20a and 20b is preferable. Specific examples include cyclic polyolefin, polycarbonate, polyethylene terephthalate, polypropylene, and polyethylene naphthalate.
