Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a novel injection stretch blow molded aerosol container and to a novel plastic preform suitable to be stretch blow molded in order to form an aerosol container.
  • the invention also relates to a novel aerosol plastic dispenser for dispensing an aerosol or other comparably pressurized product.
  • Aerosol dispensers are well known in the art. More especially, aerosol dispensers comprise an aerosol container that contains an aerosol (or other comparably pressurized product), and that is fitted with a valve dispensing device for dispensing the aerosol. Aerosol dispensers comprising an aerosol container made of plastic are for example disclosed in US patent application US 2004/0149781 and in PCT application WO 2007/140407.
  • aerosol used herein encompasses both aerosol, literally, and also other liquids or flowable products that can be dispensed from pressurized containers in a manner comparable to aerolized products.
  • Such other liquids or flowable products include but are not limited to foam or gel preparations or to liquid products delivered from pressurized containers but not necessarily in a pulverized form.
  • Examples of typical aerosol compositions can be notably but not exhaustively insecticides, insect repellents, hairsprays, cosmetic sprays, air fresheners, cleaning preparation, shave preparations including foams and gels.
  • plastic aerosol dispensers have to fulfill the technical requirements of standard FEA 621 of March 2007 meeting the provisions of the Aerosol Dispensers Directive 75/324/EEC of May 1975 and related to the measurement of internal pressure resistance of empty containers without valves.
  • PET Polyethylene Terephthalate
  • ISBM Injection Stretched Blow Molded
  • polyesters like for example PET homo or copolymers, can advantageously exhibit strain-induced crystallization upon substantial orientation, in a region above the Natural Stretch Ratio (NSR) of the polymer.
  • NSR Natural Stretch Ratio
  • the NSR of a polymer can be knowingly determined in a free- blowing experiment.
  • Free-blowing of thermoplastics, in particular PET and PET copolymers is a well known technique used to obtain empirical data on the stretching behavior of a particular resin formulation.
  • the method of free blowing PET preforms is described in "Blow Molding Handbook", edited by Donald V. Rosato, Dominick V. Rosato, Kunststoff 1989.
  • the terrrffree-blowing means that a preform is blow-molded without using a mold.
  • Free-blowing a bottle from a preform involves heating the preform to a temperature above its glass transition temperature and then expanding the preform outside of a mold so that it is free to expand without restriction until the onset of strain hardening.
  • Strain hardening can be detected in a stress-strain curve as an upswing in stress following the flow plateau. To a large extent the strain hardening is associated with molecular ordering processes in the resin. If the blow pressure and heating of the preform is properly set for a given preform, it will continue to expand until all of the PET is oriented to the point that stretching will stop at about the natural stretch ratio, or slightly beyond.
  • Standard ISBM grade PET even in the strain-hardening region, is however generally not suitable for making pressure-resistant ISBM aerosol containers that withstand high internal pressure, and more generally for making pressure-resistant ISBM aerosol containers that would fulfill the technical requirements of standard FEA 621 of March 2007.

  • isosorbide can be made from D-glucose by hydrogenation followed by acid-catalyzed dehydration.
