  • Patent number: 11912444
    Abstract: A method for conditioning a hard gelatin capsule (50) having any moisture content to a dry and non-brittle state when packed for at least one week in a cavity (45) of a blister base (40) closed by a lid film (35) comprising an aluminium foil, wherein the hard gelatin capsule (50) is a hard starch capsule manufactured from collagen and the hard gelatin capsule (50) contains pharmaceuticals and wherein the dry state of the hard gelatin capsule (50) means a relative humidity of less than 50% at room temperature and the non-brittle state means that the hard gelatin capsule (50) does not break when pressed out of the cavity (45) of the blister base (40) through the lid film (35). The lid film (35) and/or the blister base (40) comprise/s a moisture-regulating buffer layer (20) with a predefined humidity. The moisture-regulating buffer layer (20) consists of a polymer or polymer mixture containing 1 to 60 wt.

  • Patent number: 11498316
    Abstract: Composite film (1) for closing a container (10) by sealing the composite film (1) against a circumferential sealing surface (11) of the container (10) or of a cap ring (12) to be connected to the container (10). The composite film (1) comprises an outer support layer (30) made of a metal film and an inner multilayer membrane (20) laminated to the outer support layer (30) using a bonding layer (28). The membrane (20) has a consecutive layer structure from the outside to the inside consisting of a backbone layer (21) made of polypropylene, an intermediate layer (23) made of a partially crystalline polyamide and a cohesively breakable peeling layer (25) made of polypropylene, polyethylene and talc, wherein between the intermediate layer (23) and the backbone layer (21) as well as between the intermediate layer (23) and the peeling layer (25) there is arranged a tie layer (22, 24) made of a maleic acid anhydride grafted polypropylene.

  • Patent number: 10207478
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a lid film for packaging of e.g. human or pet food. The lid film has a multi-layer structure and comprises a sealing layer, a barrier layer, a print primer layer, a print layer, an optional print protection layer, and a relief layer. The sealing layer, the barrier layer, the print primer layer, the print layer and the optional print protection layer are essentially flat. The relief layer is arranged at least on a part of the print layer and comprises at least n three dimensional structures per cm2 projecting at an essentially right angle from a surface of the adjacent print layer or the optional print protection layer and said three dimensional structures forming an non-continuous elevated surface, wherein the total of said elevated surface area formed by the three dimensional structures equals at least m % of a total surface area of the lid film and wherein the three dimensional structures have a minimal height of 5 ?m.
