  • Patent number: 4983431
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved container for food and non-food products. The container utilizes a novel paperboard barrier laminate structure which maintains an isolated gas environment in the container. The laminate makes use of a high strength, heat-resistant and caulking polymer layers which prevent pinholes, cuts, or cracking of the barrier layers during blank conversion, package formation, and package distribution. In addition, the novel polymer resin layers act to caulk the seams and channels present in the carton providing a sealed leak free container.

  • Patent number: 4820462
    Abstract: There is provided a method of removing binding material from a shaped preform (green body) in the preparation procedure for the manufacture of ceramics from particulate materials by a new method comprising exposing the green body to a liquidified fluid to dissolve the binder materials in a liquidified fluid without deformation of the shape of the article. In the method, the binder materials can be removed without swelling of the article because the green body is not exposed to a rapid temperature increase and the binder does not volatilize in the body. Further the binder material can be removed in a shorter period of time from the entire body.
